The 3,000-square-foot eatery is operated by Neil Parish, a 53-year-old Randallstown native who also runs a restaurant called The Kibitz Room that he opened nearly two decades ago in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, according to the Jewish Times.
The Essen Room (essen means "to eat") is his second restaurant, and one he felt was needed around his hometown.
