On a recent trip to the Northeast, we drove from Baltimore to Philadelphia to visit friends. Havre de Grace seemed to be the prefect place to pull off and explore a bit. We quickly followed the signs to the historic downtown and were so taken by a view of the water that we turned into a drive and followed it, finding the Tidewater Grille waiting at the end. The place looked so charming that we decided to stop for a bite to eat. So glad we did!!! We were warmly greeted upon entering and escorted to a marvelous table looking out on the view that attracted us in the first place. Our server, Roxanne, promptly came over and informed us of the specials and was so pleasant and was very open in making recommendations from the menu. We decided to have the Cream of Crab soup which was loaded with marvelous crab meat that was so very fresh and succulent. Our delightful server described the culinary creation of Susquehana Hash. Potatoes with beautiful crab meat and Tasso Ham topped with an egg. What a delight!!! The soup and hash were both packed with lots and lots of crab meat in large moist chunks and was so very, very fresh. It you find your way to Havre de Grace, you MUST stop at the Tidewater Grille for this fresh and wonderful food at amazinly low prices. I just hope you get Roxanne as your wait person, she is such a delight. We have eaten at many, many places in Maryland to enjoy the crab and are always amazed at the steep prices we encounter for minimal crab meat - not so at the Tidewater!
