Our Story

The Tserkis family's journey to America is one of resilience and dedication. Originally from Karpathos, Greece, five orphan brothers and one sister migrated to Baltimore City in 1966. Captain James Landing opened in 1979, transforming a former gas station into a landmark seafood restaurant. 

In addition to the main restaurant, Captain James Landing features a popular waterfront crab house, offering stunning views and a casual, fun atmosphere for enjoying Maryland blue crabs. For the convenience of our loyal guests, we also provide private parking.

Our mission is simple: to provide an unforgettable dining experience that combines the freshest seafood, the warmest service, and the most picturesque views of Baltimore's waterfront.
