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.

This was our first time visiting and it was worth the drive. The food was fresh and cooked to order. The prices were what we expected and a great portion sizes. There was no wait as we had a reservation. Service was quick also. Lots of choices.

Stephanie took care of us and made us laugh. The food is always amazing and the staff is wonderful. We come to Baltimore a time or two every year and have dinner at Jimmy’s every trip.

The experience was amazing. The waiter Shawn made our dinner date so wonderful. The food was very delicious. Best crab cake I have ever had. We sat at the bar as we waited for our table, even that was fun as the bartenders engaged with us and laughed with us. This was a Top tier experience. This was our first time dining here, we are already planning a return dinner date🙂 10/10 would recommend.

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.
