This is one of the nicer places you can get a crabcake. Decor better than Obrycki's and any other crabhouse. It actually is a real restaurant with extensive seafood and non-seafood menu. While I...

Timbuktu is a place for crab, just crab. People must order something else because Timbuktu fills three large rooms with a full menu, but I didn't see any reason to waver. The bun tasted bland, so I...

For a place that "specializes" in seafood, my salmon was terrible. It was a huge portion, but so tasteless I only ate half. At least it came with a baked potato and side salad. The service was not...
