The drinks are good but the crab cakes are not as good as they used to be. I've tried them two different times this past summer and a lot of filler and not a lot of taste.

This is the place to go! Nice atmosphere and location in the water. They have the best crab dip around these parts. I love the coconut shrimp too. The fried green beans were great. Service was excellent. I like both Mikes. The one in Pasadena opens later I think around 4pm. The one on Riva Road in Annapolis is open for lunch. Me and my sister go to the one in Annapolis for lunch. Both look out over the water. Both have great service.

Excellent crabs and steamed shrimp. Service was friendly and efficient. Outside deck seating.

My family and I have been going to the Riva location every summer for a decade! Summer in Maryland isn't complete without a trip here. It's a bit pricey imo, but totally worth it. They also only have male crabs. But still, great crabs and drinks, beautiful view with lots of flowers to see around the restaurant and the servers are really nice.

Definitely one of the best meals we had while we were visiting Baltimore. Food and drinks were outstanding. The view from the patio was excellent especially at sunset. I would highly recommend going to Mike's North.

Okay, I’ve been looking for a place that isn’t overly priced where I can dock the boat and enjoy time out of the sun and heat with the family. Mike’s North doesn’t disappoint. Plenty of seating inside. Free docking on the B-row of the adjacent marina. Walk right up the stairs and bam! Live entertainment, good atmosphere inside or out. Your choice! The food here is better than a lot of dock side joints on the Patapsco River/Mid-Chesapeake Region. Staff is cool and quick. Our server was the best! I wish that I got her name, but talk about efficient? She was tops! Def earned over 25% tip!

Food was good. Atmosphere was great. Service was ok. We had a party of 11 people. My husband wanted to order all you could eat crabs the waitness we had told him he could not get them because someone at the same table with us had ordered a dozen of crabs. Since he had ordered that my husband was not allowed to order all you could eat. Which doesn't make Since to me. You go to a restaurant that offers all you could eat crabs. Just for them to tell you. You can't. Shouldn't matter what anyone had ordered at the same table. You should be able to order what you want. The girl told him. He would have to move to another table. And have a new waitress. If they change thus. I would give them a 5 star. Other than that it was good.

I came here for my Dad's Birthday with family for the first time. There was a bit of a wait as we had so wait for at least 6 of us to be able to be seated. Once we were seated though, the service was great from Crystal and the other nice lady whose name escapes me but I remember her being really nice and helpful. I got the blackened salmon with hush puppies and french fries. The honey butter Rivals Texas Roadhouse, as it was very delicious. The salmon was tender and flavorful, very fresh to taste. They also sung for both my Dad and I as we have Birthdays that are close. I also got a Nutty Buddy dessert that reminded me of DQ dipped cones. Others got the crabs and they come very often, so they really enjoyed themselves. I think all in all it was a great time that was had. Crystal and team worked hard to make sure we had a good visit even with some minor confusion which we all felt bad about before we left. They took excellent care of us though and we want to say thank you very much! We're so happy to have good people like you all working there. Please have a great week and we apologize for our misunderstanding at the end for those with the crab deal.

Fantastic service, great crabs, affordable price. Around $350 for our party of five for all you can eat crabs and all of our drinks. As a person who no longer consumes alcohol, was very happy to see that they had non alcoholic beer available. It's practically a sin to have crabs without beer, so I was glad I was able to order these.
The all you can eat crabs are worth it!!! They were a tad small but meaty..Our waitress was so pleasant & attentive… The crab dip & cream of crab soup is a must try!My mixed drinks was just ok. No buzz factor… lol The ambiance is everything, view of the water or outside bar with music… Couldn’t ask for more! Date night or family gathering… Just try it out!!

Didn't have any expectation on staff prior to arrival but, either way, as a team, they blew any other team by comparison out of the water. Great staff. Not one bad attitude, everyone was pleasant and attentive and any small requests were handled expeditiously. The food was amazing to boot. I'll be back!!

Tony and I went to the Washington DC Area on our annual trip to celebrate his birthday. We spent the night in Annapolis, MD at the Double Tree by Hilton (highly recommend)After having a few cocktails in the Hotel Bar, we drove the 1 mile trek to Mike's Crab House.The place was packed, large free on site parking lot.We were greeted and seated immediately. Unfortunately, the outside dining deck was full, but the waitress found us a great window seat near the water.We ordered the Steam Pot Appetizer with Jumbo Shrimp, Mussels. Clams and Oysters...then we ordered half a dozen Old Bay Seasoned Whole Medium Size Crabs (we had to crack with wooden mallet) SO MUCH FUN! GREAT DATE ACTIVITY...!!Definitely recommend this restaurant. Staff awesome and food amazing!

Celebrated my birthday there last Saturday. It was packed, but the service was excellent. Food was delicious except for the hard crabs. Ordered large. In my opinion (and I eat a little of crabs), they were small and very light. I'd go back again, and fid a few days later. Crab cakes are excellent.

Food was fantastic. All of us ordered different seafood and every plate looked and tasted terrific. Service by Alex was excellent in every way. We didn't lack for anything. What a beautiful place, clean and wonderful ambience on the water. They do not take reservations and the lines were long before they even opened. Plan accordingly. You won't regret the wait. Meal prices are competitive for the seafood market. Impeccable service. We will be back! Restrooms very clean. Handicapped accessible.
Loved it!!
