Don,
I'm really from Maine so I have some elitist views when it comes to seafood (cod and lobsters, baby!). But when it comes to oysters and crabs, I will gladly hand the laurels to the Marylanders -- this is certainly the place for crabs! Talk to Mike Roache and I offline. We have some great seafood providers very close to HQ and we can hook you up. Not sure you'll want to take raw seafood home, but Mike will be the one to talk to about that.
As far as a local joint, we don't think you can do any better than
Clarks Landing it's close to where you will be staying and we've made forays there in Homecomings past. Peggy and I took Scott Ward there, too. Ron has been there.
Anything in Solomons means a trip over the big scary bridge and rubbing shoulders with the high rollers ...
But ... you raise a good point ... should we do some Maryland seafood Friday night???
