Tip: Make your reservations now. This endearing tavern in Fells Point is always hopping. Wherever you sit — at the convivial bar, in the cozy upstairs dining room with a water view or in the back courtyard — chef Eric Houseknecht keeps the menu vibrant with Maryland, Mid-Atlantic and New England seafood dishes. We are big fans of the cast-iron crab cake and succulent lobster rolls, but don’t miss the raw bar with oysters, clams, Gulf shrimp and other goodies. (Baltimore Sun Best Restaurants 2017)
