Phillip's Seafood, Baltimore, Maryland

We only planned to have a quick snack since we had just gotten off of the boat and were still feeling the effects of being able to have a hamburger or two at two o'clock in the morning. But we had been walking around the harbor area for a couple hours at this point and decided a little snack would be good.

There wasn't a line to wait in so we entered what looked like it might be a slightly fancy restaurant and asked for a table.  We were seated at an outside table, not that we weren't dressed well enough but it was a nice place to sit, and the menu prices were a little high.  I ended up ordering the crab soup thinking it might be ok since we were by the bay which was attached at least to the ocean. I also had just bought a magnet with a crab soup recipe on it, which I still haven't tried.

I was more than happy with the soup and can't think of why I haven't tried the recipe I got even still. It's probably because there is so much else going on that I just either don't have the time or the ingredients when I do. It's been a while and I don't really remember what else we ate but it was all delicious, the crab soup was just that much better.

It goes without saying that this place was situated in a good place, a seafood restaurant on the water, but it needs to be mentioned that the service was good too.  We were never waiting around to see where our server had gotten off to.

As far as parking was concerned I didn't see a lot of places to park but since we were taking the trolley it didn't bother us any. The train stop was some ways away though and isn't an ideal way to get there if you aren't going to be looking around as well. If you find yourself in the area you really should at least have a cup of soup.
