Baltimore's famous Ekiben made the cut, ranking at number 17 on the list of 100 best restaurants after their popular fried chicken left customers craving more.

The unique Asian fusion restaurant draws in many of their customers with a dish of juicy and crispy fried chicken stuffed into fluffy steamed buns.

The delicious stop was created in 2016 by Steve Chu and Ephrem Abebe, and has expanded into two locations in the Baltimore area.

The popular "Neighborhood Bird" dish also previously landed on Yelp's 2022 list of the Top Sandwich Spots in Every State.

The fried chicken is creatively injected with curry before it is coated and fried, giving customers a tasty and juicy bite every time.
