G&Ms fan here. I travel Two hours to Baltimore a couple times a year. And I don't leave without going there. I honestly couldn't tell you how any other dishes are. Cus I get a couple cakes every time.
@@LilyoftheValeyrising I'm coming from the VA direction. So it actually didn't affect me. Although for other parts of my trips it added about 15-20 min on those trips further in. However that was mid day Saturday.
Jimmy’s are some of the best. I love their flavor. Always consistent and I have never found any small shells in their cakes. I have 4 lbs of Jimmy’s on order for this 4th of July as an appetizer for my party guests.
I was sent near Baltimore on a TDY for training . I ate at many places, but don't remember any of these. I do remember some great crab cakes while there.
Came to B-More on a visit, went to G&M and have been hooked ever since...even ordered some online to be shipped... Only thing, that was really expensive...but well worth it...
Oprah came to TV in Baltimore in 1976, to anchor the news, then moved on to one of our local talk shows with Richard Sher called People Are Talking. MD crabs have such a distant, sweet and succulent taste, its no surprise that she still craves them!
I've had G&M and Jimmy's which are both amazing will need to try the others. Box Hill in Bel Air makes a delicious crab cake if you are ever in the area you should try them out
I have a hankering for some crab cakes The last one is definitely the best, especially when they're sided with french fries, coleslaw, lettuce and tomato slices.
Not fair. Would love to have 1 from each restaurant NOW here in GA. 😅 would love to have known the price each restarant charges. Guess I'll have to visit, thanks.
GM seafood restaurant is the best. I had family stay at a hotel near by and took a chance going in since tjis was right before they fixed up the place after a fire but the next year the place was much bigger as was the crowd waiting in line for the carry out and trying to get a seat . The last time I was near by I spent $50 on crabcakes.
I really like Pappas the best but i went and tried G& M there good , never tried Jimmy's or Koco's. I used to love phillips when they were at Harbor place and Ocean City went out of business , Nicks fish house were good also
Wayne Garrison I spent a month in a Arundel Hills hotel and it was only 15 minutes to Linthicum Heights. I spent a ton of per diem in G&M. Also brought back a ton of chocolate creme cookies from the Royal Farms down the street. Yeah, I drove to a lot of towns in Maryland and ate other crab cakes but nothing could touch G&M. Plus the bartender was nice 👍
I’m from Maryland, live in frosty, non-crab cake Mn now, but I have to say I’ve never seen such huge cakes as these. I bet the diners are as over-sized. Food inflation.
Pappas is so overrated, it used to be Wargos stag bar and Hales seafood right across Oakleigh road but Pappas bought them both. Not nearly as good as Mo's up on Joppa road. I grew up on Wildwood right at Putty Hill and Oakleigh. Choose Mo's you will be glad

Next time u go near G&Ms stop at a place called romanos in Ritchie highway best crab cakes
@@isaiahthemayor Thanks for tip. The bridge collapse affect the trip?
@@viciousvictortee1298I heard the bridge collapse affects the tunnels mostly. Travel times are very high.

My husband is from Baltimore, we ate at Koco's Pub, delicious Crab Cakes!
Koco’s is delicious.
Yuge cakes there

The Olive Grove, up the road from G&M have wonderful crab cakes.

Oprah was cool back then ? So was Captain Chesapeake ......
I love your recipe watching from grenada west indies ❤❤❤

William Timon Box Hill is the spot
Boxhill sucks. They put pimentos in their crab cakes. Big no no if you actually know how to make crab cakes 🤮
Crab Cakes are so delicious when they are fresh out of the oven. I love them.
Best depiction of Baltimore crab cakes
And yes, I was born in Baltimore, but grew up in RIviera Beach (which is on the outskirts of Pasadena), Maryland.
Box Hill deserved a spot on this list :(
Don't forget Fadley's historic crabcakes at Lexington Market❤
These are the absolute best.
I really love G&M.
Not far from BWI
I love papas crab cake I like it fried so awesome 🎉
I used to work here. Great food.
My brother sent me two Pappas cakes for my birthday... delicious!
I have a hankering for some crab cakes The last one is definitely the best, especially when they're sided with french fries, coleslaw, lettuce and tomato slices.
Forgot about the windsor inn love there cakes
I owned 2 houses in Woodlawn and remember Windsor inn. Are they still there?
I would try all of them
I love Pappas and G&M haven't tried the others.
Pappas' on Ritchie Hwy for me.
I totally agree with you!
Now I'm starving.
Didn’t expect them to be baked
Soft crab love them
NoNo to Koko's! They use INDONESIAN crabmeat and NOT the excellent LOCAL crabmeat. There is a HUGE difference!
Who doesn't?!?? Where do you get 'local' crab meat In January????
Not fair. Would love to have 1 from each restaurant NOW here in GA. 😅 would love to have known the price each restarant charges. Guess I'll have to visit, thanks.
I want the ones topped with old bay and butter!!
My favorite is G&M
Moe's broiled the best crab softball sized i ever ate.
They are huge
Mouthwatering
I agree with the whole list.
Yummy
I wanna crab cake now! 😔
I’ve been to all of them except Jimmy’s. Will have to try Jimmy’s next.

Jimmys got that fire
American Harry’s in Canton has the best ones!
Faidley's?
Gl shacks crab cakes are really good.
Baltimore the best 👌 secret 😉👍🍽🍻
Corner stables has great crab cakes.
Travel 25 minutes outside Baltimore and get one from Box Hill Pizzeria. Best cake you will ever get
Seaside!!!!
I only had G And M its my fav
G &M is #1
G & M Are the BEST! Hands DOWN!
You are soooooo right! So good I bought the “send home package” for my wife.
@@cantshootthis Bad thing is that I live in Michigan now! But go to G&M everytime I'm back Home

@@cantshootthis I was a Baltimore County Fire Fighter for 30 years... retired an moved to Michigan...I miss GOOD seafood.
These are real crab cakes. Tennis ball size. NOT those crab cakes everywhere else which a bite size
I’m from Maryland, live in frosty, non-crab cake Mn now, but I have to say I’ve never seen such huge cakes as these. I bet the diners are as over-sized. Food inflation.
there is no question that Real Baltimore crab cakes are the best unfortunately many try to claim that title and have lots of fillers in them
Kocos is hands down the best
Did you
Forget about By the docks 2024
G and M Restaurant here I Come
Box Hill Pizzeria in Abingdon has the best crabcakes . I have had G&M, Pappas, and Jimmy's. Box Hill is better than all 3 of them.
All colossal meat. Where’s the blue crab??
😋 🦀
Narrator or writer LOVES the phrase "best crabmeat available". Another POS video
From the wire, I thought Faidley's would be up here. Is it not one of the better crab cakes?
Disrespect to the lumps lost onto the table!
These are all delicious options, but leaving Faidley's off the list is erroneous.
It's Pappas for me.
What about Timbuktu ?
Pappa's!
Gloves

Timbuktu
koco's no doubt use to be the best 20yrs ago..........now a days they use imported crabmeat, that does not stand up to real Md blue crab, such a shame
all processed crab , then freshly frozen
looks like frozen crab?
thats why they do so long in oven
Do not order crab cakes in California.
Or Florida
Jimmys is the bottom of this list G&M are the best then Pappas then koco’s
No c&m
Never eat crab cakes outside of Maryland.
Jimmys is not that good. My opinion
You gonna waste that crab gut?
Kokos is definitely the best on the list
Casa Mia in Parkton has the best cake in MD. Better than the Baltimore cakes.
not a crab in sight
G&M oh no… I stopped eating hear because I saw several roaches 🤢
Where did you see them?
Stop lying, what you work elsewhere
@@speedracer1945 ???
@@cooldaddyslick6869 they probably came off of him .
definitely doesnt look fresh , few days old ?
Kokos are HANDSDOWN THE BEST IN BALTIMORE!!!
G and M uses asian crab meat, the others are likely using Venezuelan crab. People even in Maryland don't know crab neat like they think they do.
