50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Timonium

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

“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.“

“Visited Riley’s Oyster House this past weekend with a local friend while visiting from Miami Beach, and I have to say I was really impressed with the atmosphere, the food, and especially the service.

Our server, Aallyah, was spectacular. Even though the restaurant was very busy, she was attentive, friendly, and made excellent recommendations throughout our visit. She took great care of us and really enhanced the overall experience.

We started with the whitefish dip, which was excellent. I also had a bowl of the cream crab soup and a shrimp salad wrap, both of which were delicious. To top it off, we enjoyed a Big Truck Topless Blonde draft, which paired perfectly with the meal.

Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I’ll definitely be back the next time I’m in town. My only hope is that the service is as good as what we received from Aallyah. She set a very high bar. Highly recommend Riley’s Oyster House!“

“Tried lunch at their Timonium location. Was a little difficult to find. Closer to come in off of Padonia Rd instead of York Rd. It is in the race. track upper deck. The restaurant is a decent size but was extremely cold inside. You can watch races on the multiple tvs and even gamble, if you like.
The wait time was nonexistent. We are immediately seated . A waitress appeared. Ordered an iced tea, garden salad and a Seafood Chesapeake sandwich ( which consisted of a crab cake and shrimp salad on wheat bread). Food came quickly. Everything was tasty. Crab cake was a little soft for broiled for my liking. Shrimp salad was average.
Would try this restaurant again during warmer weather.“

“Shawn J very attentive to our group“

“I went to Gibby’s for the first tome last week. I went to get jumbo lump crab meat. It was amazing! I also picked up deviled eggs, a crab pretzel and coddies. All were delicious! Could not be happier.“

“Joey Chiu - was trying to decide on a vibe for this place and the answer is homey + so consistent. There's a reason people have been coming here for decades. Nostalgia for the Puu Puu Platter (miss those ribs), half Peking Duck just right, soups delivered in minutes with the complimentary wonton chips. Sublime.“

“I got wonton soup, shrimp spring rolls, and the house chow fun. The wonton soup was perfect. Perfect amount of flavor, only slight issue was that it was lukewarm. But once I stuck it in the microwave it was amazing. The spring rolls were very good. And the chow fun was pretty good, they do put a lot of onions and beef and not as much chicken and shrimp. But the flavor was pretty good. And the portion sizes are huge. I paid $12 for this dish and only ate about 1/4 of it. The only minor complaint I have is that they didn’t give me any duck sauce. I usually eat my spring rolls and wonton chips with duck sauce, and when I opened the bag to not find any I wasn’t too happy. I’ve never been here before, so maybe you have to ask them when you pick it up? But still, they should be asking you if you would like any condiments. But other than that, I had a great experience.“

“Dylan’s is the best restaurant in Hampden, dare I say all of Baltimore. Great food and drink, provided by awesome people, in a cozy, vibey, atmosphere.“

“We come to eat at the Rosedale location maybe once a month. Even on long waits when we are extra hungry, we always request Draven because he is a rockstar! Our drinks are never empty and requests such as extra napkins, gloves, bibs etc are always met expeditiously. We never have to wait long for food and it is always fresh and hot. Our family are creatures of habit and we typically get the same thing every time. Let’s start with the clam chowder. A generous bowl with a heaping portion of clam. We especially enjoy the crackers on the side for our picky toddler to nibble on. For dinner I always get the Cajun boil with the hook n reel blend *spicy* with sausage and hard boiled eggs as an add on. I like to get a 20 oz. draft ipa. It pairs very well with the spiciness of the boil. Our toddler usually ends up with tenders and sweet potato waffle fries. Recently she has started to eat broccoli (hallelujah!) so we get that on the side as well. For a family of 3, we spend around $130. If you request Draven, please expect to be amazed by the service and expect to tip at LEAST 20% for impeccable service. For those bad at math, 20% of $130 is $26, which I like to bump up to $30. Sorry this was so long! If you got this far, enjoy your dinner at Hook n Reel in Rosedale. We always do!“

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

“A wonderful and refreshing experience. The food was fresh blended well with their beverage selection. The service was great. You definitely get an elevated experience at this restaurant. It is a fine dining experience at a local level and at a reasonable price“

“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???“

“My 60th surprise dinner was held here and it was festive and the waitstaff and food were amazing!“

“perfect everytime.. mex.males meaty flavorful and not a mushy crab ever. run to.get you some!! the other C place is good but these are better!“

“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.“

“Excellent service and best crabs in town!“

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

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

“We went to Indigma this evening for restaurant week. The food was fantastic and my nine-year-old loved everything! She gave it a 1523/10 rating! Though everything was excellent, the creme brulee was the best I've ever had. Thank you for a fantastic meal!“

“Hubby and I ordered for the first time and picked it up. The salmon and shrimp dishes are seasoned so well yet simple and cooked perfectly! While calling to order the young man I spoke with was very patient and helpful while I asked questions to ensure eating the food was safe for my dietary restrictions.“

“Got large and ex-large, and OMG they were all absolutely juicy and most, very heavy! My GFs and I couldn't believe how good the crabs tasted! Fresh, meaty, and juicy! We even ate all the claws! Which, we normally don't touch.
I will be going back there!“

“Something Magical about this place! Crabs are very heavy and reasonably priced. My "fav"is Snow Crab Legs and that golden steamed corn on cobb. Staff members, always smiling, very knowledgeable about their product; each one seems very happy to have his/her job, so courteous. BLAKE'S is the Best in Baltimore!“

“Nothing like the Birdland; ½ lb steamed shrimp 🦐 & ½ lb wings 🐔— the perfect combo. Had to get a ½ dozen crabs too 🦀 Great food, even better company, and top-tier service every time, thanks to Stephanie! We truly love being able to have dinner here!“

“Food so good . Cajun catfish delicious“

“There comes a time when one is looking for good food, without going into a formal restaurant, or driving to the nearest chain dinner. GOLDIES is GOLDEN!!!! The food is excellent,they serve HEAVY HEAVY dishes,the staff is pleasant,and Mr. Randy,the owner is hilarious.. I advise everyone to support this family owned restaurant. I promise they will not disappoint...“

“If you’re looking for a home-style spot to enjoy some great crabs, Khaler’s is the place to go. The food is consistently delicious, and the service is solid.

I’d recommend calling ahead to place your order and secure your spot, especially if it’s busy. Definitely a go-to for a relaxed, satisfying meal.“

“I usually don’t eat Indian food, too spicy, but the ambassador makes the food just perfect for my taste. Special occasions when the mood is right, we go to the ambassador for that special taste of Indian cuisine. I’ve been going to the ambassador for the last 20 years. Today I drove 28 miles from home just to enjoy dinner at this great restaurant. Thank you for the good food and good service.“

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

“great food worth every penny service was best“

“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“

“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!!!“

“While in town for the weekend I stopped in to grab a dozen of medium males they were HUGE and HEAVY the flavor was great and the shrimp were perfect .. five years later and the fact that I took this pic with an iPhone in a hotel is crazy lol I’ve been back multiple times still delicious and worth the ride from Philly“

“I can always count on good tasting food at Crazy Down Home. I have only been to the Randallstown location. I have had the fried chicken, fried fish, fried liver with gravy, steamed crabs, chitterlings, home fries with onions, fried green beans, collard greens, mixed vegetables, vegetable lo mein, and fried cabbage. My son loves the cheese steak subs.“

“I had fried chicken and French fries, and it was exactly how I like it. It was well done and well-seasoned. Actually, it was the best and had it twice in a row. He listened to what I wanted, and he made it happened.“

“Great food, great drink prices!!“

“Bought mediums & corn last weekend. Spice mix on the crabs was spot on and not skimpy. Corn was out of this world good. Prices beat the other 2 crab places west on Joppa Road significantly. Do not sleep on Pete's a diamond in the rough.“

“We stopped here on our way home, and it’s definitely a must-stop spot! Even though I’m not a big seafood lover, I decided to give it a try — I got wings (which were delicious) and some Alfredo too. I’m usually hesitant about seafood restaurants because there aren’t always many non-seafood options, but this place completely surprised me. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and cooked perfectly.

The snow crabs were also amazing — the rest of my group couldn’t stop talking about them! Whether you’re a seafood fan or not, this place is worth the visit. Great food, great service, and such a fun stop on the way home.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I had a seafood boil delivered from Gnam Gnam last night and everything was amazing ! I got the shrimp, Dungeness crab, Maryland crab and it came with sausage, potatoes and corn. The masala sauce was delicious and the bag was so filling it was enough for at least 4 ppl to share. The price was so good I couldn’t believe we got so much food. Also I can tell from putting my order in that the owner/chef was very customer oriented. He added supplies that made clean up very simple. I will definitely be ordering from here again.“

“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!!!“

“Expect great service with a smile and fast. My crab cake sandwich was amazing. My nephew enjoyed his crab cake as well.“

“I went there to buy fresh fish to cook at home, I was suprised how affordable the prices of their fish is. They also cleaned it very well, removed the fish scales and the intestines. When I got home, I only seasoned it and cook. I will go back there again.“

“Food and service were both amazing at Topside. The staff were all friendly and accommodating. We were even brought a champagne toast on the house, and a non-alcoholic one for my wife (she had ordered an N/A drink earlier), which was a great gesture. I will definitely be back. The Sticky Toffee Pudding dessert special was a real highlight.“

“To many kids hanging out front, most uncomfortable environment I've been too, as you never know if the Shiznit gonna hit the fan while you are there.......

Kid-friendliness: Not!

Parking: Crowded area, with teenager's everywhere“
