"Best Crab Cakes in the US: Faidley Seafood - The recipe is as consistent (and as secret) as it was back then, and it starts with jumbo lump crabmeat. The cakes are served naked, with just lettuce, tomato, balsamic and crackers."

"Really good classic Maryland lump crab cakes with no fillers. The eatery is very urban, with no frills whatsoever, so do not expect fine dining. Some people have complained about the area being a little rough or sketchy but I had no problems whatsoever while there. The staff was very friendly. It's the quintessential Baltimore city experience."
