Right when we walked in, the employees were so friendly! A couple of us got the crab stacker, I highly recommend! It was an amazing crab cake with a soft shell crab on top. So full of flavor!! For a nice little added touch, they put their bottled beers in koozies, and you can take the koozie home with you if you wish. read more

Pulled up to Bahama Mike's Seafood on a regular weeknight, and first impressions absolutely matter. The place was spotless. And I mean spotless. If you walked in blind, you honestly wouldn't even guess they specialize in seafood -- that's how clean and fresh the environment felt. Major points for that alone. Now let's get into the food. I started with the cream of crab soup. The portion was solid and there were huge chunks of crab throughout, which I definitely appreciated. However, the base itself just wasn't to my liking. The crab was there, but the flavor profile didn't quite hit for me. For my entrée, I ordered the oyster platter with two sides -- regular fries and coleslaw -- and added a shrimp basket because when you're at a seafood spot, you might as well go all in. The meal definitely satisfied my hunger, but if I'm being honest, it tasted more boxed and frozen than freshly battered. That homemade, crispy, just-dropped-in-the-fryer feel wasn't quite there. On the bright side, the fries were good -- hot, crisp, and dependable. The coleslaw was exactly how I like it: balanced, not too sweet, not too heavy on the mayo. Where they truly shine is customer service. The staff was accommodating, friendly, and very helpful throughout the visit. Service can make or break a dining experience, and they definitely delivered on that front. Overall, while this visit didn't completely wow me food-wise, the cleanliness and service alone are enough for me to give them another shot. I'll be back to try something different and will happily update my review. Stay tuned. read more

Best crab cake I've ever had. Been told for years you have to eat crab cakes in maryland to know what they are really like. I guess They were right, food here is amazing.. read more

This is my third time here. The food has been consistently good. Of course I got the stacker. I ate the last bite before getting out of the car. The service is great here too. The ambiance is casual. There's a nice patio outside. I decided to eat out there. I love this place! read more

Second visit to this place when in town. Very welcoming and attentive staff. Food very well seasoned. Ordered their smaller serving of their Cream of Crab. So good, topped with big chunks of crab and Old Bay spice. After that, ordered their Bay Bridge burger: your regular cheeseburger with a crab cake on top. Meat was fully cooked but not dry. Definitely worth a try. read more

I was waiting at the Midas next door while tires were put on and since it was going to be a couple of hours I hopped on Yelp to see if anything was within walking distance and Bahama Mikes is pretty much next door. Such friendly workers especially the younger lady working the register and bussing tables. Food was solid (fish and chips, hush puppies) read more

Do you love crabcakes? Then come here. Do you love Blue Points and Chincoteaques? You see where I'm going with this review. The best and at good prices. I've popped in a few times for lunch And have truly enjoyed it. The customer service is excellent. The food is excellent. The pricing is very reasonable But then. WOW! Invited there for a birthday party and myself and 13 or 14 other people at the party including the birthday boy were treated so incredibly well. Beyond that the menu that they outlined for the birthday party was fantastic. Execution of all the meals was right on point. It was so good that I told my partner I wanted to have my birthday party there sometime. read more

Bahama Mike's has been on my "oooh I wanna go!" list for awhile now. On my quest to explore local fares the vibe here is marvelous. Packed with locals and fantastic and welcoming hospitality, the menu boasts seafood a la carte, platters, sandwiches (non seafood too), on the grill, soups, and salads. Homemade desserts from cakes to cookies, and slices of decadent cheesecakes, fill the case and by the register. My casual no rush visit was deeeelicious! I sampled the Bay Bridge burger, a savory morsel of the oysters, and plump blackened shrimp tacos everything was tasty! You have the option to add seasoning to your fries, and a light shake over the island fries was yummy! Both sweet potatoes and island fries were crisp and piping hot. Not limpy and score! A massive brick sized s'mores cake went home with me and holy heaven get your own fork... it was so moist, and the icing was touch of delicious sweet! I am already planning my next visit and next round of samples. Yes, they offer take out so call ahead and they deliver! read more

This was the best decision I made on Saturday!! Everytime I drive past this place, I always make a mental note to stop there. This time, I finally gave it a try and boy am I glad I did. The waitresses and cashier were extremely helpful and kind. They were welcoming and made me feel at home. The food was out of this world!!! Quality seafood and crab cakes at their finest. I had a friend come with me from out of state and he said "now I know why Maryland is known for their crab cakes." The music that they had on was nice too. Many throwbacks we jammed out to. We will definitely be coming back. read more

This has always been my favorite place for seafood in the area. Today I got the stuffed salmon with jumbo lumps of crab and topped with imperial sauce. It was very delicious! I got it with broccoli and onion rings. Service is always friendly and helpful. Great food and service as always, that's why I keep coking back! read more

I highly recommend visiting Bahama Mike's, a local seafood restaurant that has garnered a loyal following in Passadina Maryland. If you enjoy the taste of beer batter but dislike its soggy texture, Bahama Mike's offers a delightful alternative. Their beer batter is exceptionally crunchy, likely made with a combination of potato and/or cornstarch, which contributes to its crispiness! It was a pleasant surprise for me. While the batter is a standout feature, the restaurant also serves flavorful haddock and perfectly cooked fried oysters. If you have never tried fried oysters before, Bahama Mike's may be the ideal destination for try your first fried oyster ever? Honestly, I was quite surprised by the restaurant's limited seating capacity. Securing a table for a large group or family may be challenging, especially during peak hours. If you're planning to order takeout, you might have to stand a while as well. So, I recommend contacting them in advance. It may be best to place an order beforehand - I plan to do so on my next visit. Despite the crowded atmosphere, which I believe was due to the busy Lent season, Bahama Mike's has great potential for growth and expansion. In my opinion, Bahama Mike's stands out for its exceptional quality, immaculate cleanliness, amiable staff, and great flavor. I will definitely revisit Bahama Mike's and recommend it to others read more

I don't know who Mike is never met him, but the food at this restaurant is fabulous. We did seem to wait a while however the taste of this fantastic meal offset that inconvenience. Our waitress was respectful and very kind. She brought me an extra Coke. We didn't have to wait for anybody to take care of us. They seem to be always there, but not intrusively so. I of course, could not eat all of my meal because I'm small so the nice girl, waitress brought me a doggy box that could take home. It made me smile. read more

The torch has been passed Best Crabcakes and Best codfish cakes around period point blank. I literally grew up on a crabbing boat of Hoopers Island so I don't wanna hear all the woo woo woo Bahama. Mike's is doing it right on crabcakes. I was pleased to see codfish cakes in stock so I tried one. I walked back up to the counter and bought four more if you're not hip to this place, get right!!! I was blown away again and again. And the funnel fries come on man so good. I grabbed a piece of fresh baked pineapple upside down cake come on man why was it so moist and flavorful? Couldn't stop there had to try the half-and-half Maryland crab soup, and thank goodness I did sheesh is all I gotta say! 10/10 as far as pricing goes some may think pricing is high however market price for such good seafood. I'd gladly pay their price for the product I receive. The old saying goes you get what you pay for. read more

Food and service were excellent. Had seafood nachos, seafood quesadilla, calamari, crab stack and fish tacos. Would recommend for pickup and dining in for lunch or dinner. They appeared to bake their many cakes and would have loved to try the pineapple upside down cake but was too full! read more

We ordered five small crab balls and they were about the size of a golf ball. They were $31.00. They were good but that is not a lot of crab cake for $31.00 bucks. If these crab prices keep going up, we will completely boycott crab cuisine period. These prices are getting totally ridiculous. read more

Absolutely wonderful options! If you are a seafood lover, you will love their crab cakes, soft crabs, fish, shrimp salad as a club sandwich or sub or NO bread. Try the triple decker with 3 seafood treats on one huge sandwich. I love their chowder and crab soups, the oysters in season, AND you can bring your landlubber friend for a great cheesesteak sub. I love that they display an array of bottled beer and coolers to drink with your meal!! It is quaint, so seating is limited so lots of people carry out!! We love this neighborhood, family business. They serve delicious and affordable options with friendly service!! read more

I don't understand all the positive reviews. Shouldn't a seafood restaurant in Anne Arundel County have fresh seafood? I ordered the fried cod, my wife the fried clams. Both were clearly frozen, not fresh at all. The sides were ok to poor. Canned green beans, fresh broccoli at least, mediocre steak fries and mac and cheese. And at around $18 a platter, its not a real bargain. read more

Service was wonderful. Food delicious. Crab egg rolls were loaded. Definitely recommend.

Ordered carry out from here this go round. Started with some crabcake egg rolls. Very filled up with crab meat. They come with what tasted like hot honey sriracha sauce on top and a dipping sauce that adds some extra flavor. Decided on the blackened fish tacos. Didn't really taste the blackened seasoning all that much but it was still tasty and cooked just right. Sides that I choose were the hush puppies and macaroni salad. Hush puppies were fried perfectly! The macaroni in the macaroni salad were a little too mushy for me. If the macaroni had been taken out the water just a couple minutes sooner, it would have been great. Overall good taste. read more

The staff here were very nice, friendly and helpful. The inside was small, but comfortable. The crabby tots and chicken quesadilla were very good. My husband enjoyed his shrimp basket as well. It can get a bit pricey if you aren't careful, but overall we were pleased. read more

Crab cakes are pricy, but good. Everything is great. Service is great too. Burgers are also great. Can't go wrong here.

Been to Bahama Mike's several times. All we should treat especially the staff. Each and every one of them are so respectful so pleasant courteous and helpful! Their staff is second to none. However, when our visit yesterday my daughter got the crab cake platter I got the broiled fish tacos with tilapia. The first time since we've been going there we were not happy. What's the price of crabs and crab meat bean what it is, one would expect items made with crab would be exceptional. Although her crab cake was acceptable in size, it was very dry and bland. Had she not asked for Old Bay, it would have had no taste at all. But there was nothing she could do about it being so dry. My tacos were good little messy but hey that's how they're supposed to be. Didn't want to complain there because one almost feels guilty complaining to one of the staff who are just exceptional and go out of their way to be pleasant. Will we go back? I'm sure of it. But we won't be ordering crab the next time. read more

Amazing crab cake and pretzel! All the food was fresh and the service was great. Loved the cake selection . The restaurant was clean and welcoming! We will be back! read more

I would like to give this place 5 stars but they failed big time on value. Service was great (counter service), staff was attentive, the place was very clean and the food was very good but pricing seems out of line. I had the stacker sandwich platter (soft shell crab on a crab cake) and it was very good. It came with 2 sides which were pretty skimpy, literally 6 smallish onion rings and a small serving of potato salad - $30 ($24 for just the sandwich). A fairly high price for the sandwich but a crazy upcharge for the sides. read more

A very large quality menu...the food was delicious!!! We all had something different to eat and everything was outstanding all flavor, nice crabcakes, nice jumbo soft crab, and I forget what the other one said, but it was delicious. I would definitely go back and recommend it. read more

As others have said, this is a great place for casual dining. You basically order at the counter and they bring your meal to your table. I might add that on the day we visited, the young woman that took our order and delivered our meal to our table followed up no less than three times to make sure we had everything we needed and to clear our finished dishes as needed. They do have outdoor seating but the day we visited, it was a bit too chilly for that. Our group ordered a couple of different things and I don't think anything was bad! We had the crabcake platter with steak fries and coleslaw, soft crab sandwich with mac and cheese and macaroni salad, shrimp and corn chowder, cream of crab soup. crab cake eggrolls and onion rings. Definitely get the coleslaw and macaroni and cheese as your sides! We met some old friends here for lunch on a Saturday and ended up sitting and eating and talking for two hours and did not feel pressured to leave and had a wonderful experience here. The restrooms were clean and decorated cute! read more

I love their hush puppies and their cream of crab. Not a huge game of the baked goods but to each his own.

Best crab cakes keeps us going back. Service is excellent. Prices are consistent with area.

My girlfriend and I wanted to get something good to eat for lunch 1 day and because it was a beautiful day, we used Yelp to find a restaurant with outdoor seating. This place popped up in the search. I am so happy it did! The employees were so friendly and welcoming. The location was convenient, free parking, in and outdoor seating, The menu and pictures displayed of the menu items were all "drool worthy". It didn't take long to choose what we wanted. Calamari, 1 Chesapeake Club and 1 Crabstacker sandwich w/ sweet potato fries and coleslaw. The bread on that Crabstacker was so buttery and the meat melted in your mouth. I was impressed. To add to the delicious food, the employees, as well as the dining patrons all made a great impression. You could tell from the ambiance that this business is revered in the community. I look forward to returning to try more menu items! read more

Wanted to try this restaurant after reading the wonderful reviews and I must concur, I had a very pleasant dinning experience here. The staff were app curtious and professional. The location was extremely clean and pleasant. The food I ate dinning in, clam basket with fries and cole slaw was delicious and perfectly fried without being greasy. Honestly, I'm extremely picky about Cole slaw and seldom order it while eating out but it was much like my homemade slaw (a tad on the sweet side with carrots and well chopped). I ordered the crab cake sandwich, the steak & cheese sub, fish & chips, the tuna platter with onion rings & hush puppies, and the chicken tenders with Mac & Cheese. Will let you know what my family thinks later. The young lady who took my order deconstructed the dishes so I couid make the 45 min drive home without the food getting soggy. For desserts I ordered the following: Carrot cake (moist with a nice balanced flavor but the star on the cake was the icing, I think it has a hint of coconut but no flakes) Chocolate cake w/peanut butter icing (lovely moist cake balanced with really good peanut butter icing that wasn't overly sweet so you could appreciate the PB & Chocolate together) Lemon cake (moist but my least favorite as it has a slight artificial lemon flavor) Apple Cinnamon Cake (probably better if you like apples but it didn't do much for me) Chocolate brownie with mint icing (decent moist brownie but the icing was too sweet for me). Service & establishment is a 5 Star; hot food 4.5; desserts 4 star. read more

Very helpful and patient staff. Bahama Mike's set up was not what I expected, but it was great food and I would definitely go back!

After driving past Bahama Mike's everyday for the last few years, I finally gave them a try yesterday. I am so glad I did! I placed my order via phone for pick up and the girl who took the order was very friendly. The order was ready a few minutes later than quoted but it was no big deal. I had the chicken salad platter with the hush puppies and green beans. The hush puppies were delicious and never made it home because I ate them on the way! The chicken salad wasn't bad but also was not spectacular. They are a seafood place so I cannot complain. I ordered my husband the 1/2 lb crab cake platter with onion rings and coleslaw. There was nothing left on his plate so I guess that speaks for itself! We also tried some of the boneless Old Bay wings which were good. Make sure if you like dipping sauces with your wings you request it because they do not automatically include it. We also ordered a kid's meal chicken tenders with friends. Nothing fancy but they were well liked! There are definitely some more menu items that I want to give a try so I will be back soon! read more

Fantastic options. And the combos I've tasted are great. Ordering and receipt of food was fairly quick. Staff was friendly and helpful. Restaurant was themed with local decor. Prices are a bit high but if you like quality Maryland style seafood, in a relaxed atmosphere, Mikes is the place to go. read more

Got a dozen shucked Bay oysters, some wings and a side of cole slaw. A little skeptical about take-out Oysters but they were fresh & delicious. Topped them with a little horseradish and cocktail sauce and yum. I would def get them again. The wings were disappointingly dry. If they had more sauce on them, they would've been delicious. Cole slaw was good. Bay Oysters : .75 each special Wings: .75 wing special Cole slaw: $2.95 half pint read more

Nothing bad you can say about Bahama Mike's! The food is INCREDIBLE! And this is coming from a picky MD girl born and raised on good seafood. Anything "crab" here that I've had so far is excellent - soup, dip, cakes - literally heaven! I don't want to hear one word about it being "expensive" - you get what you pay for and I'd rather spend $100 here and be the happiest person on the planet then go anywhere else, spend more and be totally disappointed. You will not be disappointed! read more

I've been seeing a friend of mine post about Bahama Mike's and we have passed it many times, but during this Covid business, we are all finding different ways to *dine out*, but in our home. Their page came up in my Facebook feed this morning as they were running a crabcake with imperial sauce special. Looked amazing. When I was trying to think of something for dinner, my husband said *Why don't we try Bahama Mike's*. LOL, sounded really good to me! I ordered our meal. I got the crabcake with macaroni salad and cole slaw and my hubby got the crab stacker sandwich. We got down to the shop, young man brought food to the car and we were off to home. While I'm sure our food would have been great if we were dining in there, we had to drive it from Glen Burnie to Catonsville. Still all in all, it wasn't horrible. Temperature, considering we were doing the speed limit was still warm. My crabcake was amazing! Some filler, but definitely blue crab. Pretty large....at least 10 ounces! Loved the sauce on it. The accompanying salads were very good. My husband really enjoyed his crabstacker....he said the crabcake was full and the soft shell crab was tender and the whole sandwich was perfectly seasoned. He also enjoyed the cole slaw. The hush puppies were cool and dry....I tasted them and wasn't necessarily impressed. I'm pretty sure we would enjoy dining in, but at this precarious time in our lives, we are just going to have to settle with dining out in our homes. I think Bahama Mike's is definitely a win! :) read more
