Since 1974, Jimmy's has exhibited a commitment to excellence in the restaurant industry second to none. Although made famous for our award-winning seafood and steamed hard-shell crabs, our menu also includes various tastes from all over the world, such as grilled lamb chops, a monstrous, savory prime rib, and barbecued baby back ribs. We have two seating areas - a casual, fun lounge and a beautiful dining room which is divided for those seeking to crack open some hot steamed crabs and those seeking intimacy. Seafood is flown in daily to ensure unrivaled freshness and to allow for new specials every evening! If you do not see reservation availability, please call us at 410-633-4040.

    Crab cake egg rolls was good. Sushi roll was cold and wasn’t freshly made.

    We have eaten at Jimmy’s before and this is the first time it wasn’t a great experience. The crab soup was excellent,however; the side dishes of mac&cheese, skillet potatoes and baked sweet potatoes were bland. Server was inattentive - we had to ask someone to find her. Plus a surcharge of 3% was added (before gratuity of 18%) to allow them to provide benefits to employees. This is a normal cost to do business and is unusual to see this passed on to the customer in this way.

    This isn’t my first time coming but I bought my mom and son for there birthdays. They never been as well as 3 other family members who never been. The service could have been better and the food could have been better especially for what I paid for 6 people ($500 total)

    Went there for date night. She got the stuff shrimp and I got build your own pasta chicken and shrimp Asian style. Both meals were out standing and would get again. I was actually wanted a seafood combination fried but they didn’t offer it and the server didn’t know if they would switch the broil to fried nor did she wanted to ask. She started out excellent but when she left she was gone along time. Dinner experience took about 2hrs from start to finish. I will be going back.
