- Obrycki’s Crab House and Seafood Restaurant: You can’t come to Baltimore without stopping at this quintessential Baltimore crab house for a crab cake, crab ball or crab feast. Groups will enjoy the family owned and operated Obrycki’s Crab House and Seafood Restaurant in historic Fell’s Point, where they not only serve up the best crabs in town, but they show you how to pick and eat them.
