http://www.obryckis.com/ For the past couple of Spots I have stopped in to try some down home Crab Cuisine's, I guess I was due for a "DUD". It wouldn't be Fair, or Honest to sit here and just give every Baltimore Hot Spot a good review. So here it go's.
We arrived and were seated immediately and it would seem we had just arrived in time to beat the dinner rush that followed behind us. However, after being seated, there seemed to be a longer than usual wait for anyone to come take our order. We were greeted by a waitress to take our order for drinks, but because we had been sitting there for a little while, we had plenty of time to tell her what we wanted to eat, along with our drink order.
I decided to try their cream of crab soup, which was very good, minus the shells that made into my soup with the lump crab meat place in the center of my soup cup. After the soup, Scott and I anticipated our appetizers to arrive. We ordered their recommended Buffalo Fried Shrimp and Crab Dip. Both Appetizers were served in generous portions (More than enough to Share) but I wish our drinks had stayed full through out our visit.
Finally, Scott and I shared a Large Entree called "Treasures of Seafood". Which included, their famous backfin Crab cake, two Jumbo Shrimp, clam tidbits, Fillet of fish and sea scallops, along with petite Crab Imperial. Everything was Served fried, except our crab cake. We requested ours to be broiled, and the server offered our whole dish to be Broiled if we wanted.
The food seemed to be "Generic". Nothing special or Original. The restaurant was established in 1944 and according to their wall of fame (Located just to your left upon entering the restaurant) OBRYCKI's has had no trouble making a good name for themselves. However, I was not impressed and a little disappointed considering all the good press I read before my visit.
Maybe In the future I will stick to picking and Cracking Crabs.
