Excellent fish cakes and friendly people. This place saved me from the bland crapola served on JHU's undergrad campus nearby, way back in the '70s. My GI system was a wreck until I found Sterlings, Polock Johnny's and Leon's Pig Pen (I've gotta have spice to live). Leon's is apparently long gone, but Sterlings hasn't changed at all, except prices have gone up a little over these many years. I don't get back too often, but was there on July 4, 2011 and if anything the fish cakes were even better than I remembered them. Everything else looked excellent, too. Seafood sub is amazing--almost more than one's senses can bear. Locals were getting some beautiful fried chicken, all served quickly and with a smile. The area does look pretty dodgy, but it's more hardcore poor working class than really dangerous. Do not fail to go there, if you have any chance to do so.
