2 New Restaurants Coming To White Marsh Mall

NOTTINGHAM, MD — The recently sold White Marsh Mall has plans for two new sit-down restaurants.

Kanji Sushi and Pollo Campero are both slated to open in 2025, the mall announced on Nov. 14.

A mall press release said Kanji Sushi is "renowned for its masterfully crafted sushi and serene dining environment."

The mall said Pollo Campero has "specialized in flavorful fried and grilled chicken recipes passed down through generations" since it was founded in Guatemala in 1971. The restaurant will also serve empanadas, chicken nuggets, salads and bowls.

This will be the first Pollo Campero in Baltimore County and the ninth in Maryland. The others are located in:

• Bethesda (Montgomery Mall)
• Columbia (Columbia Mall)
• Frederick
• Gaithersburg
• Hyattsville
• Laurel
• Langley Park
• Wheaton

Pollo Campero is also building a restaurant outside the Annapolis Mall.

The White Marsh Mall is entering a new era under new ownership.

An entity of Spinoso Real Estate Group acquired the mall from Brookfield Properties for $190 million in October, the Baltimore Business Journal reported on Nov. 26.

The Baltimore Sun reported that Spinoso was appointed receiver of the mall in January 2023. A receivership is a court-appointed tool to help lenders recover money they're owed, Investopedia said. It can help restructuring companies avoid bankruptcy. The receiver acts like a trustee managing the property.

Based in Syracuse, New York, Spinoso has already started updating the tenant mix at White Marsh Mall.

Spinoso signed on the Browbar salon in September and The Original Pancake House in August, though construction is still ongoing at the breakfast restaurant.

The Original Pancake House will replace Red Robin. WMAR said Red Robin and The Greene Turtle both closed their restaurants, which had exterior and food court entrances, by late 2023.

Spinoso has since announced the addition of the forthcoming Lula Maes Gardin restaurant.
