Fishing with Dynamite

Fishing With Dynamite is a seafood restaurant that I absolutely loved and would highly recommend. Our overall experience was excellent — almost every dish we ordered was impressive, and the seafood quality was outstanding. The restaurant kindly surprised us with a complimentary Seared Yellowfin Tuna 🐟, lightly seared on the outside while remaining tender and delicate inside. The freshness of the fish was immediately noticeable and made a great start to the meal. We also ordered the Seafood Platter 🦪🦐, which featured a selection of very fresh shellfish. The oysters and other seafood were high quality and perfect for sharing. Another highlight was the Maryland Blue Crab Cake 🦀, packed with sweet crab meat and paired with a flavorful sauce that complemented it beautifully. For the main dish, we had the Koshihikari Rice with Blue Crab 🍚🦀. This dish really stood out to me — the Japanese Koshihikari rice had an excellent texture, and the sweetness of the blue crab blended perfectly with the rice. The flavors were rich but surprisingly not heavy at all. The only minor downside was that the food took a little while to arrive, but considering how popular the restaurant is, it’s understandable. Reservations are definitely recommended. Overall, this is a seafood spot I would happily return to and strongly recommend to friends.

Food is amazing and I am a picky seafood eater. Excellent oysters, very tasty (rather small) lobster roll, crispy chips, tasty lime pie. Very nice design (there are also seats outside), 1 minute away from the ocean. Music, positive vibes. High end in terms of price but good.👍

Fantastic seafood in a great location. The oyster and French fry combo was excellent, as was the hamachi sashimi. Good cocktail selection. Interior of the restaurant is very small and it can get a bit loud.

Really good. It's very small and the vibe makes it really cozy and feels like a small East coast beach-side raw bar. The service was very good. All stars there. I think they do a good job of controlling the acidity of their dishes and they have interesting takes on all the old standbys. It definitely borders on michelin-star bait in terms of their choices, but I wouldn't be too worried about their lack of recognition, their offering is already priced as if they have one. Things we liked: the key lime pie. Standout of the meal. The French fries, the clam chowder and the octopus. Not as much: i think some of the stuff on the menu is overpoweringly one note especially for the price. When you're buying what is essentially $40 congee, it would be nice to have something else there to break up the monotony.

Small and quaint, friendly and attentive staff. All ingredients were super fresh, high quality, and paired expertly. Cocktails were fun and tasty. Will definitely return. Oysters were amazing. Hamachi sashimi was great. Octopus was different.......less cooked than I am used to, very soft and lacking flavor, or maybe the other items on the plate overpowered it. Ceviche was amazing; I need 3 more! Lobster roll was totally unnecessary, but necessary. Lol. So good. Key lime pie was first class; so well balanced with a crunchy, tasty crust.
