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.

    The 3% add on to the bill and the wording engulfed in the bill was not necessary.. just say the fee is to offset credit card companies fees.

    It was our first time at Jimmy’s and it was a very pleasant experience. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The staff was very efficient and we socialized with other guests for a short wait at the bar. The food was very filling, large portions, and delicious. It was an overall 5 star experience.

    Even after having a reservation for 4 people we were seated in the bar area at a high top and the noise level was too loud from the bar patrons to the people waiting for tables that were hovering around our table. One woman even leaned on the table of 2 next to us while she waited for her reservation. The food was just ok. We most likely will not return.

    This isn't my 1st time at Jimmy's; however, it was the first time that I needed to add an additional guest at the last minute. Although they were booked solid, they accommodate us with a smile which made my birthday celebration great. The service was great as always and the food is always delicious. I will always choose Jimmy's seafood for celebrations because I never worry about being disappointed.
