From the restaurant's website:
"In 2003, we opened Mama’s on the Half Shell. Our opening day was the realization of five years of dreaming, discussing and collecting. As native “Baltimoreans,” we felt Baltimore lacked a real seafood restaurant. Because of our love for the restaurant business, our favorite pastime is to dine out, but we struggled to find the real taste of Baltimore seafood. We missed the classics, the ones that we could count on as kids, such as Connely’s & Hausner’s, the one we would visit with friends from out of town who say “take us to a real Baltimore seafood house.” We missed that and wanted to bring it back."
Kids' menu. Full bar. Serving lunch and dinner daily. Late-night Fri–Sat. Sun brunch 9 am–2 pm.
"The menu sticks wisely to mostly standard seafood applications. (There's even a section titled Connelly's Classics, devoted to fried specialties.) Naturally, oysters are served in myriad ways — grilled, fried, on the half-shell, on horseback, and, best of all, in a made-to-order peppercorn-flecked oyster stew."
