Maryland Mallet is located in Westminster, MD and offers an abundance of seafood dishes, as well as meals for people who do not like seafood. The atmosphere is relaxed and the staff is friendly and always smiling. My friend and I split the steamed shrimp and mushrooms stuffed with crab imperial.
The shrimp were perfectly seasoned but out of the two, the mushrooms were the best in my opinion with heaping mounds of crab imperial. For the entrée, I chose the soft shell crabs and my friend ordered the filet and crab cake. We decided to order a side of crab imperial, which we used as topping for our dishes.
Dessert was very tempting, but I was quite full by then and even took one of the crabs home. For a beverage, I ordered a margarita and it was a perfect pairing with the food. During the summer months, all-you-can-eat crabs is also offered, and sitting around the table topped with brown paper while cracking into hard-shell crabs is a perfect way to spend a summer evening.
