Sitting on the covered deck, enjoying the breeze from the harbor, and chowing down on perfectly steamed crabs is THE Baltimore experience. I grew up in the Fells Point/Canton area and always loved going to the Captain James restaurant. The crab shack, which sits across the street, is the perfect place to relax for beer and crustacean-y greatness. The crab cakes are pricey but among the city's best. We will be stopping by each time we visit home.
If you're going for blue crab, this place is good. Anything else just stay away. Calamari were bland, the mussels tasted like rubber with Parkay melted on top, and the snow crab legs were meh... no seasoning, just tasted like boiled crab in water, and they were overcooked.
Everyone who got the blue crabs were satisfied though.

We had no experience with cracking crabs, but Irene provided excellent, patient guidance, plus steered us to the best deal for our money. Delicious food and we had an excellent experience because of this thoughtful, friendly server.
