Perry's Restaurant: The Search for a Great Crabcake Takeaway: The food was outstanding, the service was great, and the website descriptions were so vague I felt like I was ordering mystery boxes. Mom had a craving for a crabcake, and when Mom gets a craving, the mission becomes official. We decided to order from Perry's Restaurant, a spot we both remembered having great food -- even if those memories were doing all the heavy lifting during this ordering process. I went to their website to place the order, and that's when the chaos began. The Website: The Guessing Game Begins I clicked on the Chef Salad.The description?"Chef Salad."That's it.No ingredients. No hints. No clues. Just vibes. Then I checked the Broiled Seafood Platter.Again -- nothing.No list of seafood. No details. No warnings. No "may contain fish you've never heard of." I was ordering blind, hoping I liked whatever showed up and praying I wasn't allergic to any of the mystery items. If we didn't already know Perry's food was outstanding, we would've abandoned the mission right there. But we pushed on. We ordered: Broiled Seafood Platter with coleslaw Two Crabcake Platters with French fries Chef Salad with Tuna Salad Pickup: The Alexa Experience I arrived at Perry's and met Alexa, who was friendly, engaging, and patient -- the exact opposite of the website. She answered all my questions, gave me suggestions for next time, and even grabbed extra tartar sauce (for a fee ). The food smelled so good that Mom and I peeked inside the containers in the car.Bad idea.We started eating the fries on the way home. They were very good -- the kind of fries that make you forget you're supposed to wait until you get home. The Food: The Redemption Once home, we opened everything up. Broiled Seafood Platter It contained: One crabcake Scallops Clams Shrimp One piece of unknown fish (still delicious) Everything was fresh, tasty, and cooked perfectly. Double Crabcakes Smaller than I remembered, but cooked beautifully and full of flavor. Chef Salad with Tuna Salad Good, with a generous amount of tuna.I could've used more tomatoes, but overall solid. Coleslaw Outstanding.The kind of coleslaw that makes you rethink your relationship with cabbage. Final Verdict Perry's Restaurant delivered: Outstanding food Outstanding service Outstanding staff Terrible website dish descriptions We'll definitely be returning -- and hopefully next time the online ordering system tells me what I'm actually ordering. read more

We've been to Perry's a few times over the years, usually for an event of function. (Their catering is great!) Last two times, no special reason other than we wanted a good meal. I've got to warn you, we go for lunch. Why? Because the food is so good, and the portions such, that we are not hungry the rest of the day. The service is great, everyone is so very helpful and attentive. I am really leery about posting how great they are, it is a hidden gem in plain site. read more

Crabcake sandwich burnt on the bottom and fries were burnt too. Food delivered September 18, 2026.

Pleasantly Surprised would be the title of my review. I had never been to Perry's but saw it on Groupon and decided to give it a shot. I got the gyro platter and the chicken breast with rice, tomato and onions. Everything was solid, not the best I've had but good especially for the value (good prices and portions). The young waitress was attentive to everyone coming in and getting their orders together. The voucher says food to go, but I'm sure it wouldn't be an issue eating there. I'll be back for sure. read more

Accidentally came here, but it turned out to be a good time. We actually meant to go to Odie's, which is actually downstairs but came here first. Neither of us had been here before. They were so nice, we decided to stay awhile. I like the vibe! You can tell most of the people who come are regulars. A band was playing live music. Folks got on the dance floor and were having a great time. I liked that! They have some happy hour specials. I wasn't hungry so didn't try any of the food, but the menu looked great and the stuff I saw being brought out smelled really good. I would come back again. I just settled for a cosmo and I really enjoyed it. The service was good! read more

Outstanding food. The gyro plate was yummy. Greek salad was fresh. Nice amount of goat cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers and olives. I had the chili. So good. Thick and meaty. read more

I love everything about Perry's, from the food to the service to the trivia night to the dessert to the drink specials. They even do all day breakfast. I'm going to miss them when I PCS soon. Go to Perry's and have one of their crab pretzels for me :) read more

After living in Odenton for the last 5 years, we had never been here. Today we thought we'd give it a try, and I'm very glad we did. Food was great, excellent service, and excellent prices. Will definitely be back! read more

I took my wife here for some Kareoke fun on our Anniversary. It starts at 7pm so we arrived at 6:30. We never even got to sing one song. We saw multiple people the KJ knew come in, talk to her and sing 3/4 times. We tried to ask the KJ, Sam. That did not go over very well. I really just wanted to show my wife a good time. I am already thinking of ways to make it up to her next year! read more

Okayyyyyy! The BEST LIVER AND ONIONS I have ever tasted and their home made ranch dressing delicious!! The portion size is big! So shareable. The service is warm and friendly like you are at a diner! To be honest, I really see nothing else but the liver and onions, and salad with ranch dressing. :-p lol no pics because it went down tooo fast! Yummy read more

We went there for the first time last week. We sat at the bar, and the bar tender was very nice and friendly. I ordered potato soup and a turkey club. Both were delicious. Was very pleased with my food. Will be returning with my friends. read more

Every time we go, were treated like regulars, even though were not. We go once a month or so. Super friendly staff, great menu (something for everyone). Always enjoy Perry's! Plenty of free parking too! read more

Excellent, friendly service. Friendly neighborhood joint, very welcoming. They're halfway through a remodel so the Dinning Room ;-) is clean and modern, the bar is still old and divey, but don't let that scare you away, this place is great! The food was excellent, best crab cakes I've ever had! Unfortunately I was only passing through town. If I lived here I would be a regular for sure. read more

The restaurant catered an office holiday luncheon, the catering options were chicken Marsala, seafood creole, beef kebabs, rice, Californian medley vegetables and salad. We also had the associated mini cheesecakes. For the cost, the portions were small and only provided one single tray of food. The Marsala and creole dishes were very liquified and lack seasoning. The beef was chewy. The room was nice and roomy for 45 to 50 people. The customer service was professional, accommodating and friendly. read more

Carb cakes and wings are on point, beers are cold. Cool party room and great service.

I had dinner at Perry's tonight, the ambiance was relaxing with an awesome painted ceiling. My party was seated immediately and the service was very attentive and nice. I did the breakfast for dinner trend and was not disappointed. Best ever bacon, will definitely return and try more items. read more

EXCELLENT! From the food, to the service to the laid back atmosphere, this is wonderful place to enjoy a meal. Looks like they also have a banquet hall here and they have a nice bar. Carol, our server, was extremely gracious and even helped get our food packed up for a hot day in the car so we could safely enjoy it later! read more

Another fantastic event thanks to Perry's Catering! They made my Derby Day party a huge success. The food was absolutely delicious--hot Kentucky brown sliders, pulled BBQ pork sliders with the best BBQ sauce, creamy mac and cheese, and those incredible crab balls! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The staff was professional, punctual, and easy to work with from start to finish. I'll definitely be using Perry's again for future events. Highly recommend! read more

I wanna give this restaurant more stars than five stopped in late night last minute absolutely the best Greek food I've ever had. The portions were massive. The price was reasonable. There was a band playing at the time and they were really good but the food was off the hook outstanding it's gotta be a must go place for Greek food. I promise I won't disappoint you. read more

The Thursdays is when we come to dance and have dinner Last Thursday there was no shrimp available so I paid $20.00 for our bill of $6.00. The server CARSON B asked me 3 times total if I NEEDED CHANGE BACK. That would be a 200% tip I said Yes 3 times. Why was he so demanding his tip Hope he is not my server tomorrrow read more

Came in for dinner and was pleasantly surprised with the new dinning room. Steamed shrimp very good, crab cake was ok. My husband got a cheese steak and loved it. I was freezing air right on my neck. Our server, Heather went and found me a clean table cloth to put around my shoulders. She is so sweet! read more

Not a bad spot; definitely a hole in the wall (which is a compliment). The bartender was super attentive, which was nice. He was quick too - I asked for a margarita and it was ready in less than a minute, and it was good! The food was alright. I ordered buffalo wings, mac and cheese, and potato skins. The potato skins had cheese and bacon on them. The menu did not mention that (I don't eat pork). Plenty parking. read more

Been going to Perry's about a year now and not only enjoy the nightlife on both floors but the food was a nice surprise. Always consistently good. All staff is friendly and aim to please. I recently went to a nearby place to grab a bite to eat and hear music. No servers to the table in 2hrs. Had to order food n drinks from the bar‍. Bartenders were less than thrilled It made me really appreciate Perry's read more

This is a great locally owned business! I have been here numerous times since living in the area and have never been disappointed. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. I have been there for breakfast as well as dinner. Their breakfast is delicious and I really love the waffles! If you get dinner there you must try their imperial skins. So good! I enjoy locally owned restaurants but you do not always get the same quality and variety sometimes. However, at Perry's you definitely will! read more

Pros- large establishment. Nice menu choices (didn't order food). Cocktails are good and priced I'm line with other bars. Kareoke on Wednesday Nights. Cons- Not a very friendly staff No hand sanitizer available to guests in the open, we had to go to the bar to ask for it and the bartender gives you a small squirt. Not much to say, we came in to meet friends on a Wednesday night and honestly, our waitress was a bitch ( not dropping her name). The menu looked good but never got to eat,, My wife and I could not find a bottle of hand sanitizer in this joint to save our soul but you had to but cover for the microphone for Kareoke for a dollar,, we May or May not come back. Bottom Line- Maybe it was an off night for them, we May return for a second try but we won't go out of our way to do it. read more

I recently went to Perry's restaurant and had a great time. The staff was attentive, kind, able to handle large orders, and did great making our cocktails. It is a large space with multiple bars and a fun downstairs lounge. I can't wait to go back read more

Staff are always friendly, engaging and welcoming, genuinely interested in customers having a good experience. Stuffed mushrooms with crab has generous crab cake sized portions of crab on them. Excellent. Lamb chops are fantastic. Hubby loves the stuffed shrimp and chicken Chesapeake- again a very generous portion of crab - more than I've ever seen at any restaurant! Greek salad is excellent with house dressing. Souvlaki is a very generous sized and delicious for only $13!!! Steak subs are great too. I'd go for the jacket potato over the fries. read more

I've always driven past this little spot and made a mental note that I'd visit one day. Yesterday was that day. I didn't love my experience at all. Yesterday was burger night meaning the burgers on the menu were half priced, all except the burger I ordered - the Oriental Burger - which I ordered Medium Rare(it ended up being medium well), with grilled onions, that were super soggy with no crisp to them, and my bun was soggy at the bottom, and my fries were like warm. I had no ketchup at the table, and asked a gentleman for some, he barely looked me in the eye, too busy watching the NBA finals on the big screen, and gave me an empty bottle of ketchup. Terrible, terrible service. My sister had just had her baby, and I was in no mood to complain, and it was pretty late, so I ate it. I gave it two stars because my waitress was nice and checked on me constantly. She even noticed the sticker on my chest from the hospital and asked about the baby, congratulating me on being an uncle. That counts to me. I just wish the food was better. And anytime you're that off with something as simple as a burger and fries, I usually don't return. read more

We're all about seeking out new places but this is one 'new to us' place that we probably won't be returning to. Ended up here for breakfast on a Sunday morning around 11 am. Once we figured out how to get to the dining room entrance door from the parking lot, we stood there awkwardly waiting for a hostess. Finally an older gentleman that was dining there stood up and said "Just sit anywhere....". Ok then..... The general appearance of the restaurant is very dated and overall could use a good deep cleaning. When my first menu item was not available, the waitress suggested the sausage and gravy on biscuits which she said was really good. Unfortunately, it was one of the worst versions I've ever been served and they put the gravy on the fried potatoes so I couldn't even eat them. They did make fresh coffee for us, so there's that. read more

Great food and staff! Crab cakes are delicious. We really enjoy their trivia Tuesdays!

This place is always amazing every time we come regularly or once in awhile. I can say that the staff bartenders, servers, waitresses. Are just amazing, they make you feel like family. The food is to die for and I mean that especially for breakfast lunch and dinner. Everything and anything I have had has been great. I love the atmosphere for ravens games and the specials they run are awesome. I reside in Halethorpe but this is my go to bar anytime I step out for the simple fact that they don't make them like this anymore. read more

Perry's/Odies is an interesting place. Perry's is upstairs and what you see from the street, Odies is around the back. You can also get there from inside Perry's, down some steep stairs. Perry's has live music most nights. Mostly country. Food is okay. Service is good. Drinks are strong. There's a bar and table seating. Bar service has been great at times. Odies has a much more diverse crowd but is tiny!!! A pool table, bar and a handful of seats. Thursday night there's a DJ who is very good. A local guy from the area, he plays R&B and new music, gives tixs away to concerts, comedy shows, Monster Jam, etc. Friday night is Karaoke, a lot of fun watching and listening to people sing. Saturday night another DJ. More R&B. I tried to describe Odies to one of my friends, a cool, tiny hole in the wall bar where you'll see a woman with a wedding dress on, women celebrating a birthday, men just passing thru. Mostly regulars but a lot of laughs and fun. read more

We decided to try Perry's after grabbing a Groupon and were glad we did. Make sure you try them at least if your out on Annapolis Road. They have two sides for those who don't want the bar feel but more of a sit down restaurant with bright lights. Parking is very easy to come by as they have their own lot and we were able to bring a baby stroller in there without problems. The service was great and food excellent. Enjoy! read more

Stopped in here for the taco Tuesday special right before trivia started. The inside felt like walking into a good ole Wisconsin supper club. This was the day after the mask mandate went away, but the tables were a bit uncomfortably close together. We had attentive service, and the tacos were decent. Not something I would return for, but they have quite a large and eclectic menu (we stopped in for Taco Tuesday, it's a Greek restaurant that also serves American food). I was a bit surprised and disappointed that the fish tacos were bits of deep fried fish. The margaritas weren't great, but they have a good beer menu so I'll probably try that next time. I am slightly hesitant to go back only because it was SO HOT inside. This was before the heat wave, but it honestly felt good to step outside. We did not get a second round of drinks after eating because it was way too hot and we just wanted to leave. Still, it's a hopping place and I would like to try more of the menu. Fantastic french fries. read more
