I have been hearing so much about LP Steamers recently and I am so glad I finally got to try it this weekend. The crabs were meaty and delicious, with even the legs having meat in them. That is always my favorite part! We sat inside and upstairs, and it felt like the perfect little table escape. It wasn't too loud and food was delivered so quickly. Service was great! The prices are very reasonable for a seafood house, especially the hearty seafood platter. The lobster tail on that was amazing. My only request would be for them to actually say what kind of oysters they have, instead of saying "local oysters." They were still delicious and the perfect way to start our meal. Additionally, for being a seafood house, it was fairly clean. You are encompassed in seafood from the moment you walk in, in the best way possible. It is truly a meal you won't regret! read more

LP Steamers was the bomb! My friend and I got a recommendation to go here from another friend who used to work in Baltimore, so we figured we'd give it a try after going to Fort McHenry. This restaurant did not disappoint! We were seated upstairs, surrounded by people eating crabs by the dozen. Nice! However, we weren't much in the mood to fight for our meals so we got the hushpuppies and fried pickles for an appetizer and then decided to split a double crab cake platter with curly fries and coleslaw. Hushpuppies - fabulous! (Not sure how I feel about the cinnamon butter, and I like cinnamon) Fried pickles - epic! And the bmore ranch served with them? Stellar. Crab cakes - fantabulous! It was almost entirely crab with very little filler. The crab meat was sweet and succulent and just perfect. I liked the slaw - it had a tiny hint of jalepeno or something. The only thing that wasn't great were the curly fries, and it's not like they were bad. Just not fabulous. Also, the servers were very nice. The power went off while we were there and everyone just took it in stride til it kicked back in. Excellent restaurant and I'm so glad we went! read more

Came on a Sunday afternoon to solo dine. Had no wait, but the place was packed. For hot crabs, they price them individually from small to ginormous (which I think I hilarious). I settled on the medium size crabs which were $8 each and old bay fries and hush puppies. Everything came out hot, which was nice. Of the four crabs I got 2 of them didn't have much meat, which happens. Loved the honey butter that came with the hush puppies and the aioli that came with the fries. If you're craving crabs it's a great spot but for someone who's used to all you can eat, pricing per crab didn't seem like the best value. My total came to about $50 bucks including my beverage but not including tip. That being said, everyone was nice, service was fast and the crabs were tasty. So, if you're in the area it's a solid pick. read more

L.P. Steamers is one of those neighborhood staples that never disappoints. I've been coming here for years, and while I don't always go all out, there are a few menu items that keep me coming back. The fried calamari is hands down one of my favorites--I'd honestly give it a 15/10. It's always fresh, perfectly crispy, and seasoned just right. I also love ordering the steamed shrimp. They're reasonably priced by the pound, consistently delicious, and always hit the spot. When I'm in the mood to treat myself, I'll order one of their crab cakes or the fried sampler, and they never disappoint either. There's a reason L.P. Steamers has been a Baltimore favorite for so long. Whether you're a local or just visiting the city, it's definitely a seafood spot worth checking out. I'll keep coming back for that calamari every time! read more

My fault for not ordering crabs. Service was friendly and helpful. Venue itself has 3 floors and a rooftop. There is a bar on the 3rd floor so I'm not sure if you can skip the waiting. We ordered oysters from Virginia (both options for local and premium) and a soft shell crab sandwich. Our food was pretty average. Wanted to like this place more. read more

Amazing time here, great crabs and delicious apps. The cream of crab soup hit just right for me in creaminess and crabiness without a strong sherry taste. The gulf shrimp were pretty good but the crabs were great. At the end of the day they only had mediums but they were amazingly flavorful. Servers were attentive and even went around to tables explaining how best to crack crabs. Busy and noisy and a great spot to experience baltimore. read more

Finally got a chance to try LP Steamers this past weekend and I loved it! Service from Anthony was prompt and friendly. He provided great recommendations and stayed on top of drink orders. We sat on the rooftop deck and enjoyed views of Locust Point and the Inner Harbor. It can be fairly sunny up there with some tables only partially shaded so be sure to bring sunscreen. We ordered two dozen large crabs (the two other bigger sizes were already sold out), half a dozen raw oysters, steamed corn, and plenty of apps. Crabs were $125/dozen in June 2026. Everything was delicious! Crabs were an excellent size with the type of clumpy seasoning that I prefer. They don't serve cocktails here but they do have wine, beer, and seltzers. We all enjoyed the orange crush cocktail in a can over crushed ice which was not bad for not being a fresh crush. They only seat you once your full party is there FYI. There's lots of seating on all levels of the building so there was luckily no wait for us once our party arrived. The staff was even nice enough to store my friend's birthday cake and allow us to cut it at the upstairs bar. Such a good neighborhood vibe here and excellent food! I'll be back. read more

A local seafood joint with good food and good vibes! They have three floors of seating, some picnic tables outside the restaurant, and outdoor rooftop seating. Even then we had to wait about 20 minutes on a Sunday evening, but the food was definitely worth the wait! They're known for their steamed crabs which we didn't end up getting, but if its anything like their other steamed seafood then I'd bet its delicious. The shrimp, scallop, and lobster tail were cooked to perfection and were very fresh! The scallop was a bit under seasoned but we forgot all about it when we tried their cocktail sauce! My gf liked their cocktail sauce so much that it became her standard of comparison at subsequent restaurants and she thought none were comparable! The soft shell crab sandwich was also very yummy! The soft shell crab itself was quite meaty and nicely seasoned. The crab dip was yummy but felt a bit heavy. We also didn't taste much crab flavor in it but overall it was still enjoyable. The soup was mediocre and something we wouldn't have missed if we skipped it. read more

Our favorite meal of our Baltimore trip! LP Steamers was the closer of two spots that were recommended to me. The 71 bus doesn't run that frequently, but it got us there and back again! In fact it stops right by the restaurant! They only had medium $7.50 and large $10 that night. I would suggest getting the larger size to make the work cracking the crabs more efficient. Although now that I think of it, it might make it tougher to crack through the shell... Oh well, you do you. We ordered 3 large crabs apiece and a onion ring appetizer to share. They provide you each with your weapons of the evening - a wooden mallet and a knife - however if you want a bib or lemons, those are by request only. When your steamed crabs are ready, they are slid into the middle of your table with great skill. Voila! Dinner is served! Go at them! My first of three took me 35 minutes. 1 hour 48 min it took me to eat all 3. read more

I love this place. It's such a great place to go with friends and family and enjoy the weather on the roof opening some crabs! Service was really attentive. The crabs had so much meat! We got a dozen large crabs. The apps were also good. I really liked the crab dip. Though the dip was good with the pretzel bread it comes with, it was also good dipping the french fries in! My family came to visit and wanted crabs so we came here and they had such a good time read more

I guess L P Steamers had an off night or I just ordered wrong. It was a long day and my last night in Baltimore. I can't leave the city without having crabs! I was tired so I settled on crab cakes. I found parking on the street, be careful because in front of the restaurant is a bus stop. Walking inside, I pretty much have a place to myself. I'm seated by the waitress and I'm given a menu. I was going to order crab cakes but I see a fried seafood platter with a single crab cake. Sold! I ordered a Summer Shanty beer as well to get the party started. Y'all, the fish was over fried. The clam strips, some were crunchy and the fried oysters had a fishy taste. The crab cake was good but the shell was over cooked. I ate what I could, I paid the check and left quickly. Did they have an off night? Perhaps. If you're here, I'd go for anything but the fried fish. read more

First time in Baltimore really wanted crabs, but it was a busy Saturday afternoon so I settled for LP steamers cause it was close to where we were staying in town busy busy place maybe probably wouldn't have been as busy during the week but on the weekend expect to wait 35 minutes plus I had a group of five including my toddler and we waited outside with a bunch of other people as well! I think there are three floors if you've never been before just know it's a Rowehouse I don't know if each floor has a bathroom, but we ate on the second floor only one bathroom in each restroom .. the service could've been way better. They know it's a tight space when you walk in, but they expect people not to hold the door open when they're standing there trying to be waited on I wish there was maybe a side window that people could walk to instead of coming inside to host you are already standing behind four other families that are already waiting as well so I just didn't like that experience ! Food was decent no one at my table liked their food my mother order fish and chips and the fish was soft! Would not return read more

We came for lunch to try some of the famous blue crabs. We ordered the boh't load of food, a c asae salad and the kids got popcorn shrimp with fries. The combo came with 4 medium crabs, 4 oysters, 4 scallops, a dozen shrimp, a dozen clams, two dozen mussels, and a lobster tail. The crabs were very heavily (overly) seasoned with old bay seasoning. The crabs we got were just ok, perhaps because it's the beginning of the season. Both the clams and mussels were overcooked and dry. The fish was also pretty heavily seasoned, likely to cover up the fishiness of the seafood. We came on a Sunday and the food didn't taste that fresh. The shrimp, scallop, and lobster tail were fine. The popcorn shrimp is heavily bartered and the shrimp themselves were very small. The Cesar salad came with very large and very crunchy croutons. Service is friendly but a bit on the slow side, considering that it wasn't that busy when we were there. It was easy to find street parking near the restaurant. Perhaps our expectations were too high. We were debating between Nicks and LP Steamers and decided to forego ambiance for better food, but we were disappointed by the food. We will try a different spot next time. read more

Fries are delicious! Well seasoned! I also enjoyed the hush puppies. I really want to try the crab!!!

Delicious and fun experience. I tried the crab cakes, they were so tasty. Next, I tried one large crab. I take forever to eat crab because I get all the nooks and crannies lol grandma taught me not to waste any food, y'all! I was sad that I came at night and they had run out of the jumbo and ginormous size crabs. I love the simplicity of just eating a crab on a brown-paper-lined table so you're free to make a big mess and it's easy to clean up for them. They provide a cute little hammer to crack open the crab legs - and they sell it as well for $3. I bought one as a little souvenir because I love crab and thinking about eating it makes me happy hahaha. Overall highly recommend getting your crab fix here (or any of their other locations) if you're visiting Baltimore! Locals recommended this place to us. It's great because it's not pretentious and prices are very reasonable! read more

If you're a seafood loving non-car owner, one way to get really depressed is looking up bus schedules to Grasonville. It was great to learn about this steamed crab specialist in Baltimore. There are other seafood spots where crabs make an appearance, but LP Steamers is all about the crustaceans. I got three mediums, which was the only size available tonight. So you're not guaranteed of getting small or "ginormous" at any given time but I'm glad they're using a fresh supply. I don't know if the flavoring was Old Bay or Old Bay-adjacent but it was excellent. I wasn't on the prowl for elaborate sides but the corn was a fine summer accompaniment. The service was excellent. read more

I'm new to Maryland and the whole Maryland crabs culture and this was my first time trying them. The crabs were good but just a lot of work and the rest of the food was decent.

It had been a minute since we had last been here, but we had to stop again. The seafood is fresh and delicious.. It was surprisingly busy mid afternoon the last time we came here it was kind of slow, but we're glad that it was still lively, and the service was great.. the only wish as usual is that I wish that they served the broil with potatoes and corn, but you have to order those on the side if you want them and they didn't have them this time around. I highly recommend though if you want fresh seafood. This time around we ordered the items separately instead of the sampler.. read more

3 years later and this place is still my favorite crab spot. I come here a few times a year and they've never disappointed me. We actually recommend them to everyone and whenever people visit us we bring them here for crabs if in Baltimore. The order we get is kind of the same each time- I always get the half and half cup of soup, and I get a couple of large steamed crabs. My bf always tends to get the fried pickles and the Francis Scott trio- raw oysters, clams and grilled scallops. Service is always great here, and very friendly and attentive. The best part is we always tend to find a seat outside and we tend to bring our dogs along with us. They always make sure to bring out some water for our dogs (We carry water with us but it's the kind gesture that counts). read more

We stopped by for an early dinner this past weekend. It gets busy quickly, because we arrived before 5 PM and were seated on the third floor of the restaurant. There were already lots of full tables! Our servers were attentive and we got and finished our food within 1.5 hours. OLD BAY FRIES - 8 For those not familiar with Old Bay seasoning, it's used in a lot of curly fries, so it reminded us of curly fries. It was fresh and good, but some pieces had way too much seasoning so it was incredibly salty. LOCAL OYSTERS - 2.5 These were OK, I got three of them. It wasn't very briny, and I needed a lot of cocktail sauce and horseradish to enjoy them. PREMIUM OYSTERS - 3 I got two of these and they were much brinier and tastier. I would pay an extra 50 cents for premium oysters. JUMBO HOT STEAMED CRABS - MKT Price We paid 11.67 per crab! I got two of them, which was a good amount for me. The shell had a generous coating of Old Bay seasoning, and we were given wooden mallets to assist with breaking the shell to enjoy the crab meat. The crab body had a lot of meat that went well with the side of butter. I lowkey gave up on the claws and legs, so i didn't eat too much of that. Very crusty fingers afterwards! Overall, pretty decent find, we enjoyed our crab dinner at L.P. Steamers. I would highly recommend stopping by for early dinner to avoid the rush and long waits. read more

We ordered the calamari, old bay fries, the half and half soup, and 3 large blue crabs. Everything was so good. The calamari was so crispy, and the crabs were meaty. I washed what I ate down with a refreshing ginger ales. My favorite part of this foody trip was smashing the crabs with the wooden mallet.

Went to visit Baltimore for the crabs. I love this place for its sea food. They have their tables covered with disposable covers to help with the yucky process of opening up a crab. Service to sit down was quick and our order came out really quickly (we also came on a random weekday). I remember just being in front of a big screen tv that was playing the Orioles baseball game. We got 1 Maryland blue crab. They asked if we wanted a male or a female one. We didn't know the difference and honestly didn't even know how to use the mallets to open it. We did learn that female crabs have orange/yellowish goo inside. I wish they would have given a tutorial or asked us if we knew what we were doing because I am sure we didn't get half the crab meat out. We also ordered hush puppies and fried onions which were pretty basic and decent. We liked the dessert type dip that came with the hush puppies. The steamed sampler is pretty good if you like mussels. They gave a bunch of mussels, oysters, clams. The dish also had shrimp (which I wish had already come removed from the covering) and shrimp sauce. I really liked the lobster it came with. The lobster tail was ready to be consumed immediately. read more

When I'm in Baltimore I always make it a point to stop here. The seafood is so yummy, great price point and the staff is very friendly. For starters my hubby got the crab dip, I got the cream of crab soup- both so yummy. For dinner I got the Francis Scott Trio with a lobster tail, shrimp, and scallops. The lobster and shrimp were delicious but I prefer my scallopps more well done with a crust or broiled. I also got a large crab which was great. My hubby got mussels and really enjoyed them. Definitely will be back next time we are in Baltimore! read more

It's outside of the touristy area so I feel this is a bit more local fav than tourist fav. It's in a good looking old building. Have downstairs and upstairs seating. The vibe is very casual. Paper trays and plastic utensils on paper table covering. One thing really standout is the use of Old Bay seasoning. It's also coated on the steamed crabs and shrimps we ordered. Not sure if it's possible to not having it on as it starts to get salty after a while. But everything was so fresh. We ordered the crab cakes, Maryland blue crabs, shrimps, oysters. These were amazing! We also added a salad (came a huge bowl of it) and some fries. Everything came out very quickly and the price is also very reasonable. Absolutely loved our meal.

When in Maryland, you must get some blue crabs! Definitely go to Locust Point Steamers in Baltimore if you want to get the full Maryland crab experience. We ordered the medium sized crabs, I believe they have 5 different sizes, onion rings, and the cream of crab soup. The cream of crab soup was definitely super creamy and had good flavor. The onion rings were nicely fried, not greasy, and were a great side. Now, the crab, it was good! Had good meat inside for all the crabs and was pretty sweet. Not as sweet as dungeness crab though, in my opinion. I'm also not a big fan of old bay but luckily it didn't affect my meal. I would totally come back if ever in Maryland! Price is very fair and reasonable and no frills. read more

The vinegar ended up being my favorite. It was a very enjoyable meal. I highly suggest LP's. read more
