Since we got down there so late, we weren't sure who may still have decent sized crabs available. We never came here for whole crabs but, given the deliciousness of the food last time and seeing something online that says they have it available starting after like 3pm, I thought they would be a good bet. Called to make sure and luckily they had all sizes. So we headed over. It was later so a different vibe with a live music group performing (actually pretty good) the dj playing the rest of the night. As with the last time, the food was fresh, tasty and satisfying. Along getting the crabs, we ordered some calamari and mozzarella dippers to be our sides. I wasn't expecting the portion sizes for the apps, but I should've known better from the last time... We didn't complain though lol and glad to have a large portion than not.

This was our first time visiting this restaurant, and we had a wonderful experience! The food was delicious, and the service was great. My daughter especially enjoyed the complimentary bread basket served with Old Bay garlic butter and regular butter. The rolls were soft, warm, and absolutely delicious. I started with a cup of the half-and-half clam chowder, which was creamy, flavorful, and delicious. For my entrée, I ordered the stuffed shrimp with broccolini as my side, and everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. My daughter devoured the Old Bay Garlic Butter Aged Steak with potatoes-it was definitely a hit! We also ordered the red velvet and John Smith cake to go for dessert, and we can't wait to enjoy them. The white sangria was fresh, refreshing, and tasty. Overall, this was a great first visit, and we really enjoyed our meal. We'll definitely be back to try more of the menu!

Chicken and Waffels

As always, Jimmy's didn't disappoint. With great food, amazing service, and a beautiful outdoor patio, it couldn't have gone wrong. - The crab cake is something I had been wanting to try for a long time and definitely did NOT disappoint. It's not like the broiled ones at other places in town, but it's very very good. - The Chicken & Waffles were very good. So were the potatoes, but they could have used a little more seasoning. - The Calamari was FANTASTIC! I def recommend a visit here.

Every trip back home to Baltimore includes one mission, finding a great crab cake. My family knows I'm always looking to try a new seafood spot, so this visit we met at Jimmy's Famous Seafood for a Friday brunch straight from the airport. Reservations are highly recommended, and I appreciated being able to book online. Just be aware they require a credit card and charge a $10 per person fee for no shows. Parking was free and easy, and after figuring out which entrance was for the dining room, we were greeted by a friendly hostess and chose to sit on the patio. The outdoor misting system was a nice touch on a warm summer day, and even at noon the restaurant was filling up fast. I started with a red sangria that was refreshing, although I never found the fruit I was told it included. My family enjoyed the crab dip, crabby chicken quesadilla, and crab balls, while I ordered the Stuffed Lobster Tail. Since I was told Jimmy's lobster and crab cakes are amazing , this was the perfect choice. It was cooked perfectly and absolutely delicious. My only disappointment was the charred broccolini, which was a little too firm for my taste. I had a great experience and can definitely see why Jimmy's is so popular. The service and food was excellent. I only wish I had time to come back for dinner before heading home. I also love that they ship their famous crab cakes nationwide. I may have to order some for my husband back in Georgia.

14,000 mile 48 state foodie road trip return to Jimmy's. Had a fantastic experience the first time having the UFO sandwich. This time, I came to try the more "normal" sized items highlighted by the Soft shell crab, fried oyster, and fried shrimp po boy with slaw. Fresh, perfect textures, and enjoyed their slaw immensely. Also for an app I ordered the Baltimore Flatbread (sausage, crab meat, cheddar, mozzarella, old bay) which was solid but didn't compare to how awesome the sandwich was. Cant wait to return again! I enjoy seeing the celebrity photos all along the walls as I waited for the meal.

Five star for jumbo shrimp cocktail! We loved those. The crab pretzel things were nice too, but very rich....you def only need one. We got carry out from the dedicated take out area, which was really efficient and easy. Would def go back and eat in!

What a treat! After living in California, getting to enjoy fresh Maryland seafood again at Jimmie's Seafood was absolutely worth it. We ordered a little bit of everything, and every dish was delicious. We sat outside on the covered patio, which was comfortable and perfect for enjoying the beautiful weather. Bonus points for being dog-friendly--as long as your pup is on a leash, they're welcome to join you! Our server was incredibly attentive, friendly, and made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. Parking was easy with two lots available, which is always a plus. Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Baltimore!

Famous Crab Dip
Cindy N.

Wow. Bangers after bangers. They don't skimp out on the crab! The crab birria tacos are AMAZING!!! So is their crab dip. We did have Rockefeller oysters and it was ok. But everything else is STELLAR!! I salivate thinking about it again. So worth to eat here. Their happy hours are all day Mondays and Tues-Fri 3-6pm - such a good deal.

Was in town for a business meeting and We happened to be right down the road from here. So glad we came By. Peter G was our server and he crushed it. I ordered the 1 lb crab cake along with the crab bisque and it was amazing Parking was easy. The menu is robust and I can't wait to come back.... Delicious food here!

We had an incredible meal at this restaurant. The build-your-pasta dish with chicken and shrimp in Creole sauce was delicious. The Greek salad was a great addition, with plenty of feta cheese. The crab soup had a nice flavor, and the crab cake was packed with crab meat. The coleslaw was light and refreshing. We also enjoyed the brunch burger and the banana pudding and lemon parfait for dessert. The parfait could have used more lemon flavor. The server, Ms. Danielle, was amazing. The restaurant was clean and had sturdy tables with a nice vibe. The only downside was the additional charge for Labor of Love, which was $3. This charge should be optional, not mandatory.

Jimmy's Seafood Omelet                   Outstanding!
Joel L.

This is hard to believe. We are Baltimore natives, and we have never been to Jimmy's. On a Saturday afternoon visit with friends, we decided to give Jimmy's a try. We are very glad that we did; our friends still talk about this place and want to go back. Our selections were excellent, as was the service. We will return.

My son is a huge fan of this restaurant, and after several attempts to convince us to try it, we finally decided to give it a shot. We drove almost two hours to get there, but unfortunately, we couldn't find a table in the main dining room. Luckily, we managed to secure one in the bar. The restaurant was packed, as it was a busy day due to an Orioles game. I highly recommend making a reservation in advance, especially on weekends. Despite the crowd, we received excellent service and the food was delicious. By the time I considered taking pictures, it was too late. I managed to capture two images: a Sushi Pyramid and a Cheesecake. We also enjoyed Crab pretzels, Crabby french fries, a Mac Attack Burger, and Shrimp tacos.

My boo and I went on a date night out of state We were visiting from Cali and I just had to try MD blue crabs! Found this place...soo happy with my find! First off waitresses were so chill very MD style lol Great service, no complaints, they checked in us, made sure we had refills etc. Now living in Cali you could never find a place like this...I knew I was in for a treat that wouldn't break my piggy bank $45 for 8 medium sized crabs!! seasoned well and full of meat! $54 seafood imperial stuffed lobster tail!! Juicy and perfectly stuffed to the bream of the lobster!! I forgot the price on the crab Mac n cheese it was ok... not super bad not super amazing. 5/10... Drinks were solid!

The good berry salad was so incredible. The goat cheese, cranberries, and corn were so perfect, I added grilled chicken- and it was so flavorful- not dry and not chewy. I can tell it's high quality. And I'm so beyond full and happy. My son crushed the cheese pizza. My husband (who said he didn't want anything) happily ate the chicken sandwich. I love how easy it was to remove or add anything online. My husband doesn't love mushrooms or mayo- and it was so easy to remove them. And the kitchen got the order perfect. The restaurant itself was so clean and well run. I honestly wish this place was closer to our house because I would order from here more often .... And I might if I can get it delivered somehow.

Flavor was on point, and the small pieces were delicious. Unfortunately, many of the sprouts were huge and simply didn't cook through and were crunchy on the inside. If they either cook everything longer, or cut the sprouts smaller, this would be a killer combo. If you are in the neighborhood for jury duty, this is a solid option and offers a 10% discount.

So absolutely horrible that I disputed the credit card charge…read more I have NEVER EVER done anything like this at any other point in my life. I can only remember it because of how awful the food tasted and how terribly prepared it was-I have never had food this bad in my whole life. It was about 2 years ago that i went, but I can picture the........meal, I guess we can call it.... that was placed in front of my face like it was yesterday. A steak. Simple, right? Nope. Not simple, not well made, not well cooked, not even the right cut. I ordered the Delmonico- I suppose the cut could be argued, so I won't even count that in leading to my disappointment. What came to my table resembled more of a Hungry Man Dinner Salisbury Steak, and it had hunks of raw fat in it, and it was covered in this awful brown, salty, peppercorn sludge-excuse me while i go vomit. My husband ordered the lamb chops-bad move. They tasted like they sat in their own blood for days-gamey, raw in the middle (again), and tough like shoe leather. Raw, and tough....? Weird, but true. Now, my husband and I both like our steak/lamb cooked medium rare to rare, but this really was raw. I'm also a HUGE fan of carpaccio, and tartare-but this meat was really disgusting-completely inedible. Oh yeah- I believe we were told by the wait staff that the restaurant was for people with "an aquired palate". Um.......a palate for shit? That was actually pretty amusing, and at this point I realized I was not fighting about the food I had ordered with anyone. Our entire meals were sent back, our bill was paid, and then it was deducted off of my credit card. Xanadu, by definition, is a place of great beauty, luxury, and contentment. Yeah. Not so much.

Went here for restaurant week. Nothing blew me away yet I enjoyed the food. There was no wow factor…read morebut the squash soup stood out as a winner along with the tasty gnocchi. Had reservations but upon getting there and peeking through the glass doors I realized it wasn't entirely necessary as there was only one other couple eating dinner. The chic Asian styling coupled with the diner booths down the middle of the restaurant area provides an interesting contrast to one another. There is just something off with having neon spirals lit up on the walls with porcelain Buddhas and other deities staring at you while you eat in a booth. The place filled up half the dining area by the time we left, and I can't blame them as the place provides an interesting environment to dine and judging by the lounge area, grab a drink.
