50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Cockeysville

“Excellent service and best crabs in town!“

“Our table was not ready though our server motioned us to sit down while an extra table was added. No apologies, just: sit down, like we were inconveniencing her! Her attitude was approaching on rude. Orders were taken without comment, just looks. Soups were spilled onto saucers,no apologies. Coffee was served twice without spoons, containers were brought while people were still eating, same with bill. Everything was rushed, without a smile or occasional: can I get you anything or is everything ok? And why as a fine restaurant are you serving salad dressing in cheap plastic containers???“

“An unexpected gem in an unexpected location. This place, hands down, has the best crab cakes in Baltimore! You'd be hard-pressed to find a better one.Inside of an Amish Dutch Market, their location is well done. The staff is super knowledgeable and very friendly. The seafood here is always fresh. Their hot serve foods are insanely delicious!! I have tried just about all of it over the last few years & have never been disappointed. Stuffed Salmon, steamed shrimp, crabcakes, steamed crabs, shrimp cakes, stuffed shrimp, potato salad, corn on the cob, MD Crab soup, cream of crab soup... the list goes on.If you are in the area, heck if you're anywhere remotely close to this area, you have to make this one of your must-stop stops. The only regret you'll have is if you don't stop. Soooo good!!!“

“Amazing food, great environment, perfect service! Our server, Ali, was attentive and friendly, the food here is absolutely delicious and served generously. We will return!!!“

“This is a wonderful find — the food is home-cooked and delicious. They have a wide variety, including vegetarian options. They have a barbecue pit and make whole barbecue chickens. It smells wonderful when you walk in! They have family meals with all kinds of delicious sides to choose from. It’s a family and kid friendly restaurant … the burritos are delicious … the pupusas are delicious. And, the staff are very nice — warm, welcoming and accommodating. Highly recommend!“

“Love Carrabbas... but this location in Towson I don't care for since we stood a while waiting to be seated and the hostess was too busy on her phone. The waitress was just ok, not very personable. She gave you your stuff and quickly moved on, you didn't have a chance to ask a question. And they took the mussels off the menu. Ugh !“

“Excellent service with Linda and fabulous food at the Corner Stable today!“

“Excellent.. I've been in restaurants for decades, and this was by far, one of the top 10!“

“Quick service, food was amazing and Ashley our waitress was the best! Must come out and try the margaritas!“

“Lobster Tempura Grouper with Barbecue sauce Green Beans, Asparagus Drinks Service excellent“

“I would never go anywhere else but Conrad's Parkville. They are the best“

“great food worth every penny service was best“

“Everything on the menu is delicious and the desserts are to die for. I highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion.“

“On July 25th I ordered 1 doz. Large Steamed Crabs ($95) from Madonna Seafood. Madonna "used" to be the best place for crabs. They were always consistently seasoned well....that was not the case yesterday. This dozen was completely dried out...they were either VERY overcooked or my guess is they were re-cooked. Definitely not worth $95....please retrain your steaming team or you will lose business. i will be going elsewhere.“

“Chef Tad and Sherry enjoyed the fried green tomatoes covered with lump crab followed by fried oysters. To end with the Key Limb cheese cake was superb. Well worth the visit especially when bathed in classical music by the talented pianist on a Friday or Saturday evening. We will return.“

“Our first time here was for a private party/ anniversary lunch. The food was great. The servers and hostesses were fabulous. Will definitely return for lunch or dinner.“

“We searched for a Jamaican spot to get some food and when I tell you they did not disappoint. The food was good on the second day as well. We traveled 3 hours back home with half of our meals and the flavor was worthy of slapping someone mama not mine though. My grandprincess enjoyed her honey bbq wings and gave them the thumbs up.“

“Lemme just start i 10/10 recommend this place just amazing everything is seasoned to perfection great servers atmosphere definitely come here if your looking for a great night“

“Excellent food , they certainly picked the right name for it because it’s bangin“

“Food was fantastic.m! I got the lobster, potatoes & veggies. Sat at the bar and the bartender was super friendly, attentive and helpful. My appetizer was forgotten but the great service and overall food quality completely made up for it. Will be returning & recommending to others!“

“Ordered off of their catering menu for my wife's birthday. I purchased the Margharita Seafood Special with shrimp, scallops and lump crabmeat in a rose' cream sauce and it was excellent! The homemade meatballs jad everybody raving and their sausage, onions and peppers in marinara sauce was also great. Thankfully we had some left overs that we are still enjoying. Lastly was their Greek salad, very fresh and loaded with feta cheese. I definitely recommend these folks for your next lunch or dinner or when you need an event catered. Call and ask for Saul and he and the staff there will take great care of you!!“

“The 3 course family style meal is delicious, from the appetizers to the ice cream dessert. the wait staff is friendly and attentive.“

“Nice atmosphere music, and friendly staff.“

“I can’t say enough good things about this place! Every time we go here for dinner, we always enjoy! The staff is friendly and the owner Jerome is awesome! He comes to the table not only to greet you and to make sure everything is okay. He even takes the empty dishes off the table. He’s always helping out around the restaurant. Love this place!!!“

“The food was excellent and the atmosphere was excellent and waiters was excellent thank you for good prepared food“

“We visited Oasis Uzbek Kebab House today and really enjoyed our experience. The food was delicious and authentic the service was great and the staff were very friendly Everything was fresh and full of flavor. We had a great time and would definitely come back again Highly recommended!“

“I would absolutely recommend Peerce’s! The food was exceptional. The wine was truly delicious, thanks to the recommendation of the sommelier. Service was outstanding.“

“We went to dinner here this evening with a large party of 10. While we enjoyed our food and our server was great our overall experience was not 🤦🏼‍♀️. I don’t know if we just had an evening of bad luck or what. First after sitting there a bit a VERY large picture fell off of the wall directly onto me and my 18 month old daughter, then there was a gnat in our drink, and my dad walked outside and a piece of shingle fell off and hit him in the head. Like, I seriously couldn’t make this up. 🤣 like I said food was good and so was our waiter but I feel like a little more could have been done after the picture situation. A cupcake and free drink didn’t really cut it. Had it just fallen on me I wouldn’t have been so upset but the fact that it fell on my daughter made my soul leave my body. We will give it another shot at some point and chock tonight up to the full moon or something just be careful where you sit your kiddos.“

“The food was very flavorful (steak fish and potatoe salad). The service was great. The price of the steak fish was excessive. $19.99lb. That's crazy. It's more than crab legs at a grocery store. The store could use a renovation.“

“Food so good . Cajun catfish delicious“

“Pete’s Crab House served some of the absolute best steamed crabs we’ve had all season! Ordered a dozen large for a family birthday, and they did not disappoint. The crabs were heavy, packed with sweet meat, and perfectly seasoned. If you are looking for quality seafood in the area, this spot is definitely worth it.

Word of warning on payment: they charge an extra 4% if you use a debit card and prefer cash. Since debit card surcharges aren't allowed under major card network rules, save yourself the hassle and stop by an ATM or bring cash.“

“We never have a bad experience ordering from Rincon, and our most recent order didn’t disappoint. While most places are raising their prices and lowering the amount of food you get, we noticed a slight increase in prices ($1 for my eggplant parm, and a few dollars for crab cakes), we unquestionably actually got MORE food. My eggplant parm was 3 large meals, and the crab cakes were huge, and full of big pieces of crab meat. Definitely the best deal in town.“

“My favorite restaurant in the area! Never had a bad meal or experience. Especially like the outdoor seating!“

“Great food everything is good and you can see them cook your food“

“I've been to the one over by Northpoint but the new one is awesome! More space, updated and just very well thought of. Hopefully crabs will come to that location, but the food was awesome. I got to meet the owner and his sister. Dad would be very, very proud of this place!!“

“Always good always hot always fresh i also love how neatly the crabs r placed in the bag an season is on time!!!!! Dave is always kind prices always great wish i could give 1000 stars keep up the great work Dave I appreciate u“

“Great food, great drink prices!!“

“everyone was very amazing, food was great..“

“Can’t go wrong at OP! One of my favs in general and especially for the raw bar!!!“

“Food was fresh and hot! Service was phenomenal.“

“Overall, I had a great experience here. The Happy Hour oysters are definitely a must-try. They were fresh, sweet, and tender, and the cocktail sauce and mignonette really brought out the natural briny flavor. The best part is that they’re only $1 each during Happy Hour, which is an amazing deal. The Old Bay mussels had a nice Maryland-style flavor—savory, well-seasoned, and perfect with the crispy, fluffy bread for dipping into the broth. They are a little on the salty and rich side, so they’re great to share. The Seafood Club was very satisfying, packed with crab, shrimp, bacon, cheese, onion, and lettuce. It had that classic hearty American feel, with generous portions and lots of layers of flavor. For drinks, the Crushes were refreshing and perfect for summer, made with vodka, fresh-squeezed orange and grapefruit juice, and crushed ice. Great seafood, generous portions, and excellent Happy Hour value. I’d definitely come back.“

“food is delicious, excellent portions for the price!“

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Citron Baltimore while celebrating a friend’s birthday! The owner, Charles, and his wife were incredibly nice and friendly, making us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. Their hospitality truly set the tone for a memorable evening. The food was nothing short of amazing—every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was incredible, with a perfect blend of elegance and warmth that made the celebration extra special. Highly recommend this gem of a spot—can’t wait to come back!“

“Oh boy, let me tell you about the pre-game magic we experienced at Johnny's! With a high school state championship soccer game at Loyola on our agenda, my friend, her daughter, and I were on the hunt for the perfect spot to fuel up before the excitement. And boy, did we hit the jackpot with Johnny's! Walking into Johnny's was like finding a hidden gem in a treasure map. The cozy vibes wrapped around us like a warm blanket on a chilly Sunday—it was just what we needed! We settled ourselves at the bar, eager for some drinks and snacks, and that’s where the real fun began. Our bartender was nothing short of a beverage maestro! I ordered a cortado that was so perfectly crafted I nearly swooned. Seriously, it should have been on the cover of a coffee magazine! And let me tell you about their wine list—it’s like a unique art piece. I picked a Pinot Noir to accompany my house-made Old Bay chips, and it was such a delightful pairing that I felt like a sophisticated sommelier for a moment. Now, my bourbon-loving friend was over the moon to discover that Johnny's stocked his all-time favorite brand, FEW. After indulging in wine and coffee that could make any day brighter, we just had to cap off our relaxed Sunday with a round of bourbon. Because what’s a pre-game without a little celebratory sip, right? My friend and her daughter were enjoying their vanilla latte and mocha to the fullest—let’s just say the smiles on their faces were positively radiant! And the cookies? Oh my goodness! The gingerbread and peanut butter cookies were instant crowd-pleasers. I’m pretty sure I’d fight a bear for another bite! Now, here’s the kicker: my friend might live in sunny Florida, but I’m ready to brave the Washington Beltway traffic any time just to return to Johnny's. If they nail snacks and drinks this well before a soccer game, I can't even imagine what kind of culinary genius they have up their sleeves! So, Johnny's, you’ve stolen my heart (and my taste buds)—I’m already counting down the days until my next visit!“

“First time trying Wings and Seafood overall 8.5 out of 10 the employees were nice and helpful food was hot and fresh. I bought the D crab and shrimp platter 2x. I got one house special and the other Old Bay both were great the only thing that stop it from being amazing neither was spicy. In my opinion seafood boils need to be spicy the old bay one had no type of kick but again still good I just prefer spicy over great 8.5“

“quite, excellent job, great food and atmosphere just right“

“Shawn J very attentive to our group“
