Dinner recommendations?

I'm meeting up with a friend from out of town this evening after the O's game is over. Since she and her boyfriend will already be downtown for the O's game, I would prefer not to make them venture too far from Camden Yards.

What is a good place we can go to that will have some really good seafood? I'm thinking possibly Lexington Market as that is about as authentic a Baltimore experience as one can have, but am wondering if there is somewhere else even better that I'm missing here.

Thanks!

Edit: Looks like Lexington Market is closed on Sundays so that it out.

Lexington Market is an "authentic Baltimore experience" that everyone would be better off not having. That place is a shithole.

Best crabcakes in Baltimore are at Faidley's.

Cross Street Market in Federal Hill should be open and is a good place like that. Nick's fish house (a little further away).

Some of the market-y stuff is closed, but sushi, seafood, bars at the Charles street end were open, I thought.

We went to Nick's Fish House. Great spot, can't believe I've not been there before. Thanks for introducing me to what will now be a staple.

Glad to hear. It is a fun place. Actually have a decent brunch, too. Crab deck is pretty nice.

Anything in Little Italy. Its about a 15 minute walk (or you can take the cirrculator for free) to and from the Yard. You can cut through the harbor and it will be a bit faster, plus they can see the water. :3

Check out Mama's on the Half Shell in Canton. Short cab ride away.
