I'm originally from the area and haven't been here in forever because it's considered a tourist trap. However, I was in town with my husband and wanted some steamed crabs on the water and they did not disappoint! Expensive, but worth it if you just want a dozen and don't want to cook them at home and honestly they're expensive anywhere. I was skeptical but the crabs were large, meaty, and delicious! Super dog friendly which is rare for somewhere you can...
We sat right on the water outside and watched the boats coming in and out. We happened to be there at the same time as the entire Terps coaching staff so that was cool. They had some pretty boats! The crab dip was really good and came in a yummy sourdough bread bowl. Most patrons were there for the crabs, tables were all dressed in crab paper and the bucket of hammers and paper towels were atop. Drinks were good. Atmosphere was fun!
As with most places in the US, an overuse of disposable plastic when more eco-friendly options are cheap and available.
