One of the best meals we had in Baltimore…read more We ordered the Jumbo Lump Crab Cake, the Maryland Crab Soup, and the Seafood Hot Combo. The crab cake absolutely lived up to its reputation--packed with large, sweet pieces of crab meat and very little filler. It was fresh, flavorful, and surprisingly light. I finally understood why Maryland is so proud of its crab cakes. The Maryland Crab Soup was hearty and comforting, with plenty of vegetables and crab flavor. The Seafood Combo was generous and perfect for sharing after a long day of exploring the city. The restaurant was busy but well organized, and the staff were friendly and efficient. The atmosphere felt lively without being overwhelming. After lunch, we took a short walk to Fells Point and spent the afternoon exploring the neighborhood, which made it a perfect Baltimore experience. If you're visiting Baltimore for the first time and want to try an authentic Maryland crab cake, this is definitely a place worth visiting.

We visited on Saturday evening to celebrate our anniversary, but I have to admit, I left feeling a…read morebit disappointed. This was my second time at the restaurant; the first experience was fantastic with top-notch service. I later discovered that our previous server was the owner's son, which explains why the service was top-tier. This time, we were greeted warmly by the host, which was a nice touch. However, after being seated, I waited 15-20 minutes while tables that arrived after us were served. When I finally got the attention of our server, Pedro, he took our order promptly, and I enjoyed my meal, especially the cream of crab soup, even if it was a bit on the warm side. My only issue was feeling rushed, as it seemed like Pedro focused more on his other tables. I had really bragged about this place to my partner, so I was hoping for a similar experience to my first visit.

We had a good time as a party of 2 on a Friday night. We arrived shortly before 8pm without a…read morereservation and the gentleman working the parking lot was kind to inform us that we may only get a seat at the bar, which was fine. There were some larger parties waiting, but luckily the hostess had a picnic table for 2 available outside of the bar area. The live band was good but we are old and thus were happy not to be seated so close that we had to shout to hear each other. They had signs posted saying they were out of steamed crabs, so it may be good to call before going there if that's what you're aiming for. We ordered the Brussel sprout appetizer, crab dip, and chicken Chesapeake sandwich. All three were very good. My only critique was that there was a bit too much salt on top of the crab dip. I also got a non alcoholic lemon basil fizz. I did not taste any of the basil and for $11 I would skip this next time. Overall we were happy with the experience and would gladly come back.

We've been coming to nicks for crabs for years…read more Unfortunately this time around we got there too late and they were out of crabs, so we opted for a variety of other dishes. We started with the cream of crab soup- always a banger- I do wish it had a little more crab meat in it though. We also had some salad. We shared a pound of shrimp, some oysters and some mussels. My main entree I got the rockfish- blackened. It came with a creamy lemon sauce that was really good. Honestly my favorite part of the meal. They have live music outside with the bar and big tvs if you are watching any sports. The wait is usually long on the weekends so plan to wait for atleast an hour. They now do valet parking which is annoying and the parking is not ideal. But overall still one of our top choices for seafood.

A worthwhile visit if you're in Baltimore and are looking for a good meal. It is not often that I…read moream impressed, but this place did well. The service was prompt and efficient. Loved the atmosphere. Expect to put down at least $30 which was worth it. Fried Chesapeake Oysters with the dent corn hominy was excellent. I wish I did not have to share this appetizer. The Block Island Scallops over the Narragansett succotash was perfect. The scallops nicely seared, and the succotash was excellent and did well with the scallops. The Eastern Shore Crab Cake was large and perfect. Nicely prepared. The zucchini that came with it was also done well and not overly seasoned. The potato salad was a surprise. Not expecting much, it was one of my favorites, and I wish I could have a plate full of it to chow down. Make it a day and visit this establishment and enjoy the day. When I am Baltimore again, I'll consider stopping by for a nice meal.

We were up in Baltimore for a quick weekend away and after getting several recommendations for…read moreThames Street, we went there for Brunch. I've been giving out a lot of 5 stars recently, but this is a place that really deserves it. It's a must visit. It'd been many moons since I had escargot, so I got it. Despite one cooked snail being basically impossible to scrape out and my fine motor dexterity isn't great, it was delightful. My wife loved her seafood stew. Our shared side of the grilled Zucchini (definitely enough to share) was also a highlight. We've been raving about our fried clam sandwich and lobster roll since. Both were amazing; my wife said it was the best lobster roll she's had (we've never been to maine or anywhere known for lobster). The dessert passion fruit pie was a great way to end, also shared, but the crust was a little too thick and the dollop on top did kind of over power the curd. The birthday sprinkles (it wasnt either of our birthdays) were cute. We will be back. Especially to try the raw bar (We're pregnant and didnt want to risk it).

Located in a food hall with a good amount of indoor seating.

Instagram inspired trip…read more We ordered the catfish sandwich, salmon salad, and chicken nachos Catfish- 1/10 thin and flat. Sandwich was bland. Good catfish doesn't even need Tatar sauce and hot sauce to be honest. It should be seasoned and hot. This wasn't it. Chicken Nachos- 8.5 very flavorful, chicken was cooked perfect, pico, sour cream, cheese. My daughter told me to stay out her plate! Salmon Salad 10/10 again my other daughter had to remove me from her plate. Salmon was delicious. Caesar salad was fresh and good. Restaurant is in a co-op of other restaurants together, different for us but most were closed so we didn't get to try all spots. We would not come back on purpose but if you are in the area try them. Just remember fresh fish have clear eyes.

The Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes were the star of the meal--packed with large pieces of sweet crab meat, lightly seasoned, and cooked to perfection with very little filler. The Haddock was fresh, flaky, and perfectly fried with a light, crispy coating. We also ordered the Pot Boil with crabs, shrimp, and snow crab legs, and it did not disappoint. The seafood was fresh, generously portioned, and seasoned just right, making it a fun and satisfying meal to share. What made the experience even better was the outstanding staff. Everyone was incredibly attentive, friendly, and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed and taking the time to answer our questions with a smile. Their excellent service truly elevated the entire dining experience. If you're visiting Baltimore and love fresh seafood, Faidley's at the new Lexington Market is a must-visit.

I spontaneously tried this place for lunch…read more Of course, as everyone else in Baltimore, I have tried their crab cake before. It was in 2012. That's a long time. It was pretty good. Worth the hype. On my last visit last month, I went and got a Catfish Filet and Medium Tea. The Catfish is what took this review from a 5 Star to 4. I was very unsatisfied and disappointed in the Catfish. The breading was icky. Too much, not tasty, and funny looking. The tea was ok. I will skip that as well on my next visit. I will try the Shrimp Platter upon my next visit. I would like to end this review on a better note. Customer Service was very pleasant and the atmosphere, seats, and the tabletops were clean. Ok, that's it.

We were seated upstairs and our service was also lacking a bit, not getting refills quickly, etc. definitely not the best time!
