The new establishment is the latest of a slew of local, regional and national-loved restaurants arriving at Baltimore Peninsula
Today, the Baltimore Peninsula development team, led by MAG Partners and MacFarlane Partners, in partnership with Sagamore Ventures and the Urban Investment Group within Goldman Sachs Asset Management, announced it has signed a new lease with Slurp Noodle Bar, which has leased 1,375 square feet at Rye House and is anticipated to open in Q2 2025.
Slurp Noodle Bar will offer a delicious array of hand pulled noodle dishes such as original beef noodles (“Lanzhou Lamian”) and sour and spicy noodles – in addition to other traditional Chinese staples like the ‘Crossing the Bridge” Rice Noodle Soup with a bone broth simmered for over 12 hours. The making of hand pulled noodles requires no machinery – but rather is done completely by hand by highly-skilled chefs with extensive training and practice. The noodle bar will open at Rye House alongside Ben & Jerry’s, which is opening its first Baltimore location.
The family-owned restaurant is run by Washington metropolitan area local Jerry Chan and his father. The Chans have been in the restaurant business for three generations – beginning with Jerry’s grandfather, who took up work as a restaurant chef upon his immigration to the United States. Slurp Noodle Bar will be the second restaurant opened by Jerry, and the first in Baltimore.
“Slurp Noodle Bar is an amazing addition to our rapidly growing list of premiere food and beverage offerings at Baltimore Peninsula,” said MaryAnne Gilmartin, Founder and CEO of MAG Partners. “We’re continuing to see top establishments open their doors and strong momentum in restaurant leasing, a testament to the appeal of modern, mixed-use spaces at Baltimore Peninsula and the activity and dynamism they create.”
The announcement comes on the heels of several restaurant announcements and openings that are quickly turning Baltimore Peninsula into the newest dining hotspot in the DMV. Alongside the newly opened Rye Street Tavern by Clyde’s and Little Wing at ROOST Baltimore, the neighborhood will be welcoming several high-quality dining options, including Pinky Cole’s Slutty Vegan and Bar Vegan, Urbano Tex-Mex, Baltimore coffee shop Daily Grind, BK Lobster, and Jersey Mike’s.
“My family has been involved in the restaurant industry for three generations, so I’m incredibly excited to be opening a traditional, family-owned establishment,” said Jerry Chan, Owner of Slurp Noodle Bar. “I have been looking to bring our business to Baltimore for some time, and Baltimore Peninsula is the perfect location to do so as it becomes the city’s newest dining destination.”
Slurp Noodle Bar will open on the ground floor of Rye House, one of Baltimore Peninsula’s residential offerings. Rye House offers 254 total apartment residences, ranging from studio to three-bedroom floor plans, with 54 units designated affordable. Amenity spaces include a fitness center with a yoga studio loft, a third-floor clubroom with private meeting and dining area, a spacious bar and lounge, and a billiard room. The rooftop terrace lounge offers seating, grilling and dining areas with 360-degree views of the waterfront and Baltimore skyline.
Retail leasing at MAG Partners is led by Gayle Mandaro and Sam Spikell and Segall Group. Slurp Noodle Bar was represented by Shang Wang of Wang Enterprises.
