    Wow! On vacation here and Rusty Jimmies did not disappoint. Captain Chris was in the house and was super friendly. The crab cakes and fried sampler platter were on point. The crab dip appetizer should not be missed!

    Rusty Jimmies!! The quality of the crabs were spot on. I ordered 1/2 dozen and we got a few extra on the house of the medium/large for dinner (dine-in) and they were heavy crabs. There's smaller and much larger sizes. Medium/large are just right for me. Captain Chris served us. Caught the crabs earlier that morning.Fresh. Sweet meat. Even explained about how to tell which crabs are mature, heavy, and worth serving. Very selective and focused on quality. This is exactly what we were looking for. Prices were reasonable too. Restaurant opens at 5 pm for dinner. Worth the wait because these crabs are delish! I actually came back the next day and ordered a dozen to take home. So nice, they threw in extra crabs for us. The restaurant is run by his family. Mom bakes the cornbread and banana bread. Call ahead. Her breads sell out. It's little dine-in brown paper on the tables crab restaurant. Very family friendly. In fact, the walls are lined with crab pictures kids and patrons colored. You can even buy t-shirts there. They've been around for at least 10 years. We stumbled upon this place thru google search because the crab place we used to go to went out of business. I wish I knew about this place sooner. Excellent experience, friendly host, and the best crabs.

    We come here every summer for the delicious, fresh crabs caught by Jimmy himself every morning. This time around we called ahead of time for 2 dozen medium large crabs. 30 min after we arrived, the confused waitress told us they only had 1 dozen m/l left, then the manager (Jimmy) told us they did have 2. Finally an hour later we got 2 dozen mediums. After our meal, Jimmy came to check on us and was very apologetic; we got our sides comped and a few extra crabs. Meal was still great and will come again!

    Another year, another fantastic dinner experience with Captain Chris. This year we ordered for take out, and the food was again...PHENOMENAL! The peel and eat shrimp were cooked to perfection. We added in some extras, and so did Chris, and we were on our way!

    Ratings on here are surprising. I imagine being BYOB with a place where you can buy it right across the street is worthy of an extra star or so (and I've rounded up for that), but I can't imagine calling RJ's a 5 given what else is available. Food was OK at best, venue was rundown and in need of an update and cleaning in many different areas, service seemed slow (though very pleasant), they were out of several items and nearly out of crab too, it's on a very busy road with no view, the crab chowder was terrible and seemed likely to be canned with crab thrown in it, crabs themselves were overdone, and the pricing overall didn't seem as good as some other places.

    We had a great experience here for dinner with our large group! They were very accomodating and friendly. The food was realllly tasty. I would definitely come back next time I'm in Fenwick Island. Remember it's BYOB if you want alcohol!

    I was in OCMD, but close to Fenwick island so we expanded our search. We've been to Hoopers, we've been to Higgins. This is our new place. We were with family and the adults were looking for a solid AUCE crab place. This will forever be our go-to. We have never been to Rusty Jimmies but I can tell you we will forever recommend the place. Captain Chris is the real deal. His mom bakes the breads. The sides are totally fine but we're here for the crabs. They did NOT disappoint. Best money spent. And it's BYOB so that's even better!

    Rockfish tacos

    If you're looking for a fancy place, go elsewhere. If you're looking for delicious, fresh seafood, this is your place. And if you're very lucky, Captain Chris will serve you. My husband and I shared a dozen raw oysters, two incredible, big crab cakes, rockfish tacos, coleslaw, cornbread, and a blueberry muffin. All were great. To top it off, Rusty Jimmies is BYO, so you can have a delicious seafood meal, bring your own beer, wine or cocktails, for a very reasonable price!

    Crabs were terrible Ordered 1.5 dozen and more than half were inedible We're from MD so we know crab Not sure if we caught them on a bad night It's a shame because the people that worked there couldn't have nicer

    Huge scallops that were very tender.

    See all
