Highly recommend!!!!- The Baltimore SunFebruary 12, 2013In our review: Our first course, cups of cream of crab and Maryland crab soups swirled together, warmed us even more than the fire.

Donna YoungAugust 18, 2013Sorry, was not impressed-service was wonderful. Ok for lunch or weekend casual dinner but not for any fancy occasion. Limited menu. Crab pretzel good. Heavy mustard in crab cakes. View is phenomenal.
Victor 🌴 MarantoJune 17, 2018Watch your bill when they bring it. Went for breakfast buffet. Server only served us drinks and added 25% tip to the bill. The receipt said tip not included. Food was good, service was spotty!
