ZenFoodster: Crab cakes are a bit eggy 4 me. Come 4 yr-round med-jumbo Steamed Crabs flown in daily from Gulf. "No Old Bay! Plain pls" I eat 'em w/ my Black Vinegar (Shanghainese way). Coleslaw is not 2 mayoey.

Nicole Levine: Amazing! A must do in Baltimore. I have gone to many restaurants in Baltimore for the crabs and this one by far has the best Crabs! Plus the roof top deck is amazing! Great local spot
ZenFoodster: Know what ur getting...ask waitress to bring #1 (larger) vs #2 (smaller) Blue Claw crabs to compare sizes - varies daily! I eat 'em Shanghainese way-simply steamed-w/ Chiangkang Black Vinegar sauce!
ZenFoodster: Why drive to MD to have best whole Blue Crabs done MD-style or in a garlic sauté + MD Crabcakes when u can come here?! MD Crab & NE Clam chowdas (altho' watery) are tasty. Order drinks & wait it out!
ZenFoodster: My other faves: NE clam chowder, MD-style Crabcakes, local fried scallops, potato salad, & corn on the cob (when in season July~early Sept)!
ZenFoodster: No frills shack. Chowda’s watery & oily but full of fish, clams & potato..better w/ crackers added. Get 1 of NE’s best Crab or Double (1/2 lb good for 2) Lobster rolls on perfectly buttered split-tops
ZenFoodster: Located in Perkins Cove w/ lovely views. OK Dry, low-fat Cole Slaw w/o mayo or too much vinegar. Didn’t get a chance to try their talked-about potato salad but Corn (from FL) on the Cob was good.
ZenFoodster: Not a fan of Ipswich clam w/ a siphon (gross foot/tail). I go 4 smaller Littlenecks or medium-sized Topnecks / Middlenecks but wish MC’s steamed 1’s weren’t gritty. No Manila & Razor Clams found here
ZenFoodster: Alaskan King Crab @$42/lb (1 jumbo leg) supplier is frm CA & was fresh but meat was brinier than sweet. Blackened Grouper-fresh, tasty & not too oily-good find! Potato salad was bland & starchy today.
ZenFoodster: Not a fan of Ipswich clam w/ a siphon (gross foot/tail). I go 4 smaller Littlenecks or medium-sized Topnecks / Middlenecks & wish MC’s steamed 1’s weren’t gritty. No Manila & Razor Clams to be found:(
ZenFoodster: Even if U don’t leave room for dessert after this sumptuous seafood meal, get the Key Lime pie to go..it’s the best 1 I’ve had in a while!
ZenFoodster: #1 of Maine-style lobster roll (w/ 1 WHOLE lobster)! 2nd fave: Grilled Haddock sandwich. Scallops were very fresh & onion rings ok..except batter was too thick. Mayoey crab roll w/ lotsa meat.

ZenFoodster: 60+yr celeb go-to & A MUST-GO FOR CRAB ❤️’ers! Expect wait, casual svc & loud mallets. Get BEST ALASKAN KING CRAB in US (from “Deadliest Catch!”)! Went 3X IN 1 TRIP..yes, it’s that great!
ZenFoodster: Roadside shack w/ 1 of the freshest (& sweet meat) crab rolls I've had so far! And LOVE female lobsters -w/ smaller middle feelers- for ROE (orangy-red when cooked)!
