The shrimp tacos are a perfect mix of savory and pungent with taste. If you aren't afraid of a little spice, try one of their Jalapeño infused margaritas. The sugar covered rim in a combination with a spicy margarita, will surely be the talk of the table. And if this hasn't convinced you yet, was it mentioned that Blue Agave is open daily until 2am! You no longer have to silent those midnight cravings with BAMF around.

I too, have fallen addicted to the irresistible jolt of traditional Maryland Crab entree's. Check out a few unique crab dishes that will leave your eyebrows raised, and belly's full.

Wicked Sisters

3845 Falls Rd, Baltimore, MD 21211

Accompanied by a daily happy hour, Wicked Sisters also is one of the few eateries in Baltimore that include a late night happy hour. But our main focus is going to be on their one-of-a-kind Crab Mac N' Cheese. Their layered Crab Mac N' Cheese is served as an appetizer, but it's definitely large enough to be an entire entree. This delectable Crab Mac N' Cheese includes lump crab meat, Old Bay seasoning and... crab dip! This is not for the faint of heart, but will be worth every bite.

Jimmy's Famous Seafood

If you've ever been interested in crabby brunch options, you've picked the right place. Jimmy's Famous Seafood offers crabby brunch options that are extra heavy on the Old Bay, leaving your taste buds a step away from the shore. You never knew you needed your eggs topped with Cream of Crab soup until you ordered Jimmy's Crab Hash. This combination of eggs, soup, and crab meat will leave your mouth watering and your mind questioning where has this dish been your entire life. I highly recommend!!
