Ryleigh's Oyster Bar

[1000yregg]

I realized that Ryleigh's Oyster Bar in Federal Hill has not been mentioned on this board. Patrick Morrow who is now at Bluegrass used to be the chef here.

It remains one of my favorite neighborhood places to drop in for good, reasonably priced seafood. One of my favorite items is their take on Mexican grilled corn using Old Bay and feta cheese.

On Tuesday nights, they have been running "Shore Nights" with great specials on seafood- $1 oysters, $2 steamed crab (their seasoning is like a peppery old bay), sometime crawfish boils, and baked clam pots. This week, they had a $16 1 1/2 lb grilled lobster that was outstanding. One of my friends also recommends their Shrimp & Grits.
