When I first found USA Seafood, I was in heaven! It's the absolute best FRESH seafood you can get…read more Consistently top-grade salmon and cod. And, their fresh shellfish and frozen shrimp is also great. Then late last summer, something happened (new owner? new Manager? new staff?) First problem: I called in advance to place an order as usual, and then when I called the day of, I was told they didn't have the fish I ordered. Hm. Second: I ordered the typical salmon that I get, then when I got there, they didn't have it, but they substituted it with a different salmon. The real crisis was Christmas eve. I called Sunday before Christmas to place an order for fresh fish, fresh shellfish, and 2 lbs of frozen shrimp. The order was confirmed on Monday. When we got there Christmas eve afternoon, we were told that they couldn't find our order, and "someone gave it away". So here we are ready to make bouillabaisse for dinner, with only a bag of fresh clams. And, there were also two other customers in the lobby, fairly furious that their orders were completely wrong, and were they empty handed. Here's hoping that things will improve!

(Anyone want to know how to cold smoke 24 filleted salmon in a cardboard refrigerator box? Let me know!). I needed to find some Chesapeake Channa to make updated Baltimore Coddies for a tasting event. (IYKYK, hon). The Trouts were able to special order the fish for me - not easy to do because CCs are a by-product catch so not always available. Outstanding service! If you can get them you really, really should. Chesapeake Channa are an invasive species that are wreaking havoc in the Bay. The good news: they are incredibly tasty, with a firm, flakey flesh that's suitable for pan frying, roasting, poaching (and sous viding, my technique of choice for this event). Everybody raved about how great the fish was - even after I told them that Chesapeake Channa is more commonly known as "Snakehead". (Hey, it worked for Chilean Sea Bass, which used to be known as "Patagonian Toothfish"). So, thank you to Lighthouse for helping me introduce an old Baltimore dish to a new audience, and help save the Chesapeake Bay at the same time. Score!

This outer suburban, roadside business has been there for a while. It's part country market, part…read moreseafood and fishmonger and part restaurant seemingly specializing in carrout. On our first visit on a winter Wednesday, we were impressed with everything we saw. Being a self-professed seafood snob with extensive periods of my life living ( and eating) in coastal areas, we bought some fresh fish ("blue catfish" to be specific). We help the Chesapeake Bay by eating this endangered species. We also bought some homemade compound butter - they have several seasoning blends. The verdict was that the freshness was outstanding and the trimming (no bones or other waste) was perfect. And with fish, freshness is everything. The price was fair too for the area and the service was personable and helpful. (Note that the inner lining paper of the wrapper stuck to the skin too much - they should change that but I'm not deducting a star - the fish itself was that great). On return trips, we'll check the other faire (shellfish, prepared-on-premises seafood, dine-in options). For now, we are quite happy and the Lighthouse deserves more business.

My Mom had their green beans as a side and I had a few - they were crispy and very good. Too many places over cook things. Waitress behind the bar was great. Nice 'neighborhoody' casual atmosphere. First time here - will hopefully be back within a few weeks. Five stars, albeit based on one visit Decent beer selection, nothing I hadn't had before. But that's a personal problem, not a restaurant problem. ;-)

Three stars for the nostalgia of rum buns alone. Been meaning to stop by this place for YEARS and…read morefinally made it! Any Marylander of the Boomer and GenX generation knows about O'Donnell's RUM BUNS. I used to come here with family back in its heyday and these were served table side before our meal. How crazy is that, a nice lil somewhat sinful dessert BEFORE some MD crab?! Those were the days! The rum buns are more nostalgia more than anything, I wouldn't say they'll blow your socks off, but hey, nostalgia is nostalgia. Well, I'll need to dine in here for a full and complete verdict, but my quick grab and go visit was a tad chaotic. Service for taking orders could improve - you walk in, there's a seafood counter to your left, bakery counter to your right (both were unmanned when I walked in) and in the middle is a deli section with the cash register where I assume they take orders. We stood there for a few good minutes before getting anyone's attention despite the fact a manager asking staff (not customers) if everyone was being helped. Clearly staff did not know who was waiting to check out, take orders or just waiting for their orders to arrive. So it was just weird. No one greeting you as you walk in either, it just also weird because there's no clear line anywhere you stand. Otherwise, rum buns were as I remembered them. Also picked up crab dip and chicken salad from the grab and go section from the back and they were just ok, not bad, not great. So will come again for a future visit hoping to have a much better meal and experience!

I've gotten live lobster from here and steamed them at home during the summer- had a great experience with fresh lobsters! I recently tried the lobster rolls and it was fine. I'm not sure if I'll be back for the rolls, but I will for live lobsters. Lobster rolls are $20.20 for 1. They can assemble it for you, or you can take them home, toast it and assemble. I recommend the latter and add butter to the rolls. I also added a big squeeze of lemon before eating. I've had better, but in a pinch these are good. I think I'm partial to Connecticut lobster rolls. Out of curiosity, I weighed each container of meat. One came out to 4.58 oz and the other 4.66 oz (including the container, which on its own was about 0.7-0.8 oz). Loved the bread- soft and even better with the slight buttery toast. On another note, I know it's not peak season for anything, but the fish under the glass counter looked a little gray and sad. I will be back during the summer. :)

I was a little nervous to see what would be left as I went around 3pm, but when I got there it didn't disappoint. The workers are so friendly and welcoming to help out a seafood lover like me! I wanted some blue crabs and shrimp to eat so I opted for the X-Large males a dozen ($89) and some X-Large shrimp to be steamed. I also made sure I grabbed some snow crabs and shrimp to go in my freezer to save for later seafood cravings. When I tell you the fisherman hooked me up! Ba...by he hooked me up! I bought a dozen and the "extras" he threw in were about 8 extra! I was like wow this is what I'm talking about custmer service above and beyond! As I waited for my deliciousness to be steamed to perfection I grabbed some corn and shrimp and clam chowders. And they were so tasty I can't wait to go back to get more. My seafood took about 30 mins to steam and I just took in the ambience of all the scenery of the wharf which is even when cold a great as I waited. You already know I will be back! Seafood is LIFE!

I spent $47 for 2lb of shrimp, 1lb of crab legs and 1lb of mussels which easily fed 3-4 people. We made our own sauce for the seafood but Lighthouse does offer butter and seasoning options.

It didn't have a but odor while I was frying it in a skillet even though the pieces were turning literally into mush. I know that Cod can easily fell apart if you don't know how to fry it, but I am a pro. Well, when I sat down to eat it, it didn't taste good. I decided to give it to my dog, who is a garbage disposal, can eat raw, cooked... He can digest rocks! Guess what? He was sick throwing up, having diarrhea and was lethargic for two days! He is a big 145 lb boy and he didn't eat that much of that fish. I would have easily end up in an emergency room if I would have eaten that Cod, but then I would send my medical bill to this business along with some other legal papers. What were you thinking? $30 of fish could cost you thousands of dollars!!! I swear watching my dog I was very close to take that step, just to stop you from treating costumers that trust you so poorly!
