About Faidley's Seafood

Faidley's Seafood is a must-visit restaurant known for its amazing crab cakes that are worth every penny. The restaurant features two floors for dining and drinking, creating a social atmosphere. The friendly staff aims to provide a great experience. The crab cakes are still described as life-changing and incredibly delicious, with big pieces of lump crab. The coddie is also highly recommended, bringing back childhood memories for some visitors. The ambiance is cool, with table tops and outdoor seating on the patio. Faidley's Seafood offers a variety of fish, shellfish, oysters, and clams, making it a good option for seafood lovers. The ordering process is easy, and service is often quick. The crab cakes are simply delicious and enormous, flaky, and cooked fresh. They are crispy on the outside and tender inside, with a nice blend of spices, often enjoyed with a bit of hot sauce. Standing at a shared counter-height table adds a social touch to the meal. The oyster bar has improved significantly and offers huge, tasty oysters. Some sides like slaw, beets, and cucumber salad are also praised, with cucumber salad standing out. While the fries are described as bland and boring, the focus remains on the crab cakes and other seafood. The restaurant is located in Lancaster Market, not a full-service place but with plenty of tables for standing and eating. Visitors note that the area around the restaurant is not the best part of town, but many see it as part of the authentic experience. Overall, Faidley's Seafood remains a top spot for Baltimore’s best crab cakes and seafood favorites.

This was my first trip to Maryland. I was told to go here for crab cakes. So I did it.

Coming from the West coast I'm no stranger to crab cakes. They're really good.

However the Maryland crab cake is on another level altogether. First, they're huge, like 3 times bigger than crab cakes back home. Also, it's like 90% crab. Crab cakes back home are like 50% crab, no comparison.

I'm so glad I made it here. This...read full review
