Celebrating a new job and Jimmy’s was awesome
I’ve been a loyal customer of Jimmy’s for years and am always given an amazing dining experience.
Wonderful night again at Jimmy’s. My husband and I tried to come on his birthday last month but it snowed so we made it up tonight. The food was delicious as always with leftovers for later. Thank you!
This was my first time to Jimmy’s Seafood and I will definitely come back. The food was outstanding and the service was excellent. Highly recommend!
Excellent !! The food was amazing ! Waitstaff did an awesome job !! Will go back !
Thank you for the great review, Walter! We are happy to hear you truly enjoyed your meal with us and our team took wonderful care of you. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
The overall experience was amazing . Our server was Shannon, she was sweet , patience , and through with our needs . She constantly checked in on us despite waiting multiple tables . She gave us great drinks and meal suggestions which were amazing . The only compliant I would have to say, is the owner or manger did not come to our table to ask about our experience . He actually didn’t not recognize or speak to us , but talked to the table next to us multiple times .
Thank you for the wonderful review, Mirissa! It is so great to hear you truly enjoyed your overall experience with us and Shannon took amazing care of you. We hope to see you again soon to indulge with us some more.
I really enjoyed our dinner here. They lived up to all of the great reviews and TV shows. The chocolate cake I had for dessert was perfect, not too rich and every bite was delicious. It came on a seriously nice birthday plate. It is energetic atmosphere, they were not tired of serving even though you can tell this place stays busy. The cream of crab soup was delicious. The chicken fingers were very good, not dry at all. The star of course was the crab cakes which were phenomenal. I can't wait to come back and try more!!!
Thank you for the amazing review! We are thrilled you truly enjoyed your experience with us after seeing us on TV and thoroughly indulged in our crab cakes and atmosphere. We look forward to the many more visits to come as you continue to explore our menu and atmospheres!
Welcoming staff, delicious and fresh food, and impeccable service. I will continue patronizing and recommending The Famous as often as I can!

Thank you for the awesome review, Pete, we are happy you had another wonderful evening with us! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Though we had to wait almost 20minutes past our reservation time and the noise was loud, the food was fabulous. We had raw oysters and steamed clams to start, the clams were a little overcooked, our only complaint. I had the seafood stack which was perfectly cooked and had wonderful flavors. My husband had the seafood platter with a broiled crab cake, which we agreed is one of the best we’ve eaten.
Thank you for the great review! We are thrilled you and your husband indulged in our seafood with us once you were seated. We can’t wait to see you again soon as you continue to try our other seafood dishes with us.
It was my birthday and I had seen them on the Food Channel. The food was wonderful all crab no filler. That was the best crab cake I ever had and I have had some crab cakes. Also the crab soup was so rich and filling. What a great way to celebrate my birthday with my husband.
Thank you for the amazing review! We are thrilled you decided to celebrate your birthday with us after watching us on the Food Channel and truly indulged in all things crab with us. We can’t wait to see you and your husband again soon to continue to try other dishes with us. Happy Belated!
First time there - was for a business meeting for a colleague from London who’s never been to Baltimore. Very impressed!
Thank you for the amazing review. We are happy you truly enjoyed your first experience with us and hope to see you again in the future! Take care.
Loved the Peta Tears lager on tap. Creative and hilarious!
Thanks so much, Andrew! We hope to see you again soon.
Definitely worth checking out if you're in Baltimore.
Thank you for the awesome review and recommendation, Erin! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Every time I go to Hopkins I eat here. I can't even think about trying anywhere else. I have never had crab cakes so good! Every forkful is lump crab, with very little filler like other places. Their meat dishes and scallops are good as well. I dont like how they prepare their sides. The veggies are way under cooked. The mac and cheese and potatoes although goid come out a bit too cool. Lauren is the best waitress there. I always request her. She is effective, efficient, and quick with a laugh. I'm a 20 year veteran waitress and think she is always on the mark.
Thank you for the wonderful review, Dawn! We are thrilled you always visit Jimmy’s when you are in the area and have such an amazing experience with Lauren. It is so great our famous crab cakes are your favorite and we look forward to the many more visits to come. Take care.
Crab cakes and the sides were excellent, will go back soon.
Thank you for the great review, Michael, we are thrilled you truly indulged in our famous crab cakes with us. We can't wait to see you again soon!
We drive around two hours to enjoy the fine food. I personally prefer the rib-eye steak that you prepare. This steak is so tender and flavorable The rest of the family enjoy the quality of of your seafood selections. My wife talks about the bread pudding on the way to your restraunt, while eating t and on the way home. She enjoys it so much. Thank you for our eating experience.

Thank you for the amazing review, Gil! It is so great you and your wife thoroughly enjoy your visits to Jimmy’s and always indulge in our ribeye and bread pudding. We can’t wait to see you again soon! Take care.
Our server was amazing and our food excellent. However, the bar on the restaurant side was unable to keep up. We waited at least 15 minutes for a round of drinks (4 people). That is not acceptable. After we finished dinner, we went to the bar side and the service there was phenomenal.
Thank you for the great review and feedback, Kate. We are happy to hear you received amazing service and truly enjoyed your meal with us. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
I made this reservation for my birthday weeks in advance but I guess due to the busy nature of the restaurant my guests and I were not treated very well. My original reservation was for 14 people. When 12 of us had arrived I asked to be seated because we had another engagement a few hours later. That was an issue for the manager. I told him that I was still expecting 1 guest but I didn't want to hold everyone up. After I spoke to the manager about my reservation I saw another guest with the very same situation and he was accommodated with a smile. It was apparent that they were acquainted which is still unfortunate. When my guest showed up about 5 minutes later the manager would not seat my guest although there was room at the table. The waitress went and grabbed a chair from the back to seat my guest. I appreciate her for that. The food took quite a while but it was a busy night but some of the food was cold or dried out like it had been sitting for a while. My salmon was hard and my broccoli was cold. This service isn't consistent to what I was used to from Jimmy's. I could tell that the busyness of the restaurant was getting to the servers because even their attitudes took a turn for the worst. Overall I enjoyed my birthday because I was with my family but I won't chose that location to accommodate a large party ever again.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are disappointed to learn of your birthday experience with us and sincerely apologize for the overall service you received. It is great you were able to make the most out of it being with your family and we always appreciate your feedback in order to address these kinds of things with our staff. We look forward to seeing you again soon to indulge in our food and atmosphere of the Jimmy’s you know. Take care.
The food was phenomenal. I could have filled up on appetizers alone! I love the menus and the atmosphere, absolutely would recommend anyone to go here.
Thank you for the amazing review and recommendation! We are thrilled you truly enjoyed your our experience with us and indulged in our food and atmosphere. We can’t wait to see you again soon!

The food was fresh and tasted simply delicious. It was one of the best seafood places that I have been to. We had a party of 10 with reservation and was seated immediately. I would truly recommend this restaurant to everyone.
Thank you for the amazing review and recommendation, Karen! We are thrilled you truly enjoyed your experience with us and indulged in our food and atmosphere. We can’t wait to see you again soon!
We'd watched Jimmy's on Triple D. We bought tickets to go to the play Wicked , and decided to go to Jimmy's to see if what the Triple D said was correct. Not only was the food tremendous the atmosphere was electric and we truly enjoyed herself Ken did a great job he gave us Yani as our a waiter and to top it off,we got to meet the Mrs Minadakis, what a truly delightful experience it was. Not only was she very gracious but she brought out a bag of rolls and a container of seafood bisque that was to die for the experience could not have been better.
Thank you for the amazing review, Jeffrey! We are thrilled you had such an exceptional experience with us after wanting to visit seeing us on Triple D. It is so great to hear you indulged in our food and atmosphere and even got to meet Mrs. Mindakis yourself. We can't wait until you are in Baltimore again to see you and try some more dishes with us! Take care.
Great seafood, especially the crab cakes and stuffed shrimp.

I had the Seafood Combo. The food was good but on the dry side, just a bit overcooked. Given that I would still return. The crab cakes are great.
Thank you for your review, Chris. We appreciate the feedback regarding your seafood combo and look forward to seeing you again soon!
The food was sub par and the server Yanni
was not helpful even though we were the first time visitors.
Thank you for your review and feedback. We sincerely apologize for the service you received but appreciate the feedback to address with our team. We hope that you will visit again soon for a true Jimmy’s experience. Take care.
Went for my dads birthday Food was great kat the server was great highly recommend
Thank you for the awesome review, Michael! We are happy you celebrated your father’s birthday with us and had a great experience with Kat. We appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you again soon.
Had a birthday dinner on Friday, 2/21. My wife and I walked in and we immediately greeted by one of the owners, John. The hostess then informed us our table will be ready in a couple minutes as it was being cleaned. 3 minutes later we sat down. From there it was a 5 star experience in every aspect. Food was perfect, drinks were perfect and the service can’t be put into words. They are famous for a reason.
Thank you for the wonderful review! We are happy you decided to celebrate you birthday with us and had such an amazing experience with us. We can’t wait to see you again soon as you indulge with us some more!
The appetizer and crab dinner were excellent, the waiter attentive without being interruptive and the atmosphere was clean and fitting for a casual dining spot. The noise level was too loud for a romantic date, but fine for a group of friends gathering for a good meal, and that was the majority of patrons. Great spot for crab in many forms. Highly recommend
Thank you for the wonderful review and recommendation, Laura! We are happy you truly enjoyed your time with us and indulged in all things crab. We can’t wait to see you again soon as you continue to try more dishes with us.

Thank you for the awesome review! We are thrilled you thoroughly enjoyed your experience with us and can’t wait to see you again soon. Take care.
My sister was visiting here from Las Vegas and wanted Lobster Tail. I called to make sure you had it and then I called back to make sure I could get it without the imperial crab. We were seated in 1 minute and had a very friendly server. We both had lobster tail, green beans and sweet potatoes. We shared a Crème Brule for dessert. You did not disappoint. It was the best restaurant experience I have had in years. Thank you so much and I will be back.
