Hip, authentic Taiwanese street food (bun sandwiches and rice bowls). Seating is limited, so plan for take-out during lunch rush, or be prepared for tight quarters at the bar-top. Totally worth it for the amazing food, though!

In warm months, this Barcocina has the best view of the water of any Fells Point restaurant. The tacos are delish (perhaps a bit pricey), and the margaritas are amazing. Be sure to ask to sit on the patio.
