Lonely Planet review

Happening Johnny's is the place to come for local specialties: Maryland crab cakes; fried oyster po'boys; and sautéed soft-shell crabs. The barbecued shrimp with asiago cheese grits are 'better than my mother's,' according to one Southern patron. The friendly bar always seems to be hopping and boasts strong drinks, but don't come here without sampling the seafood.
