★★★★★ 5.0 Samuel Smith · Feb 2026

Snagged some lunch from Charcoal Deli today for my wife and I and it was fantastic!!! She had the Sammich and said it was perfect! Wonderfully cooked and seasoned. I had half a rack of ribs with fries and some endz. Oh they were good, the ribs were tender but still held to the bone just enough, it was excellent! And the endz with Cajun sauce, oh they were good. I love getting food from here and I can speak highly enough about Charcoal Deli!!! It's probably the best BBQ I've had since moving to Maryland!!!

Cold bun, not alot of meat and doesn't hold a candle to pioneer pit beef. Respectfully not Baltimore best.

★★★★★ 5.0 Jason Isennock · Feb 2026

I’ve been coming here for 20 years and have never had a bad meal. Prices are fair. Employees are great. The fries are the best in the area. Their iced tea and lemonade is the best in the state. I highly recommend Charcosl Deli.

The absolute worst pit beef ever. Dried out and hard and tastesless. The onions on the sandwich were perfumey and rancid. The fries were hard and cold like they were double dipped in old grease. The side of gravy was old brown grease with lumps of white flour. Our entire dinner is in the trash. Never again!!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Trey Palmisano · Jan 2024

It's kind of what you'd expect from a roadside Pit Beef stand. I ordered the pit beef sandwich with horseradish, onion, and mayo. The bun was large and didn't fall apart in my hand. The meat itself was generous, though a bit dry and sinewy and not as flavorful as I hoped. And while I ordered it medium rare, the meat came out medium. The onions were finely chopped red onions. They were flavorful. French fries were solid.
