  My husband and I were in town for a wedding and decided to check out Jimmy’s on a Friday night. It was a really awesome experience. The food was fast, fresh and tasted delicious. Our waiter Santiago was friendly and professional. The restaurant was very clean and all the staff we interacted with from entry to departure were pleasant. We would definitely recommend and plan to come back on our next visit. Definitely uber here the parking is extremely limited for those who are out of town and not familiar with the area.

  BEWARE OF ABBY!! Disappointed is an understatement as a long time customer. My family and I usually celebrate milestones at Jimmy's with great brunches and dinners. This time around I planned to celebrate my birthday in January and back in April while celebrating my sister's birthday there I decided to ask about the party space on the second floor. I was shown the space and told to call the next day and speak with Wendy or Abby. I ended up speaking with Abby who told me they don't book dates for the new year until September. I said no problem and that I will call back then. I did let her know how excited I was that my birthday fell on a Saturday and we even talked about the party theme which she said she loved. In June I called again just to make sure this was still the case because I really wanted to book the date as soon as I could. Again, Abby told me I have to wait until September. I called again at the end of July and was told the same, but I told her I will be on vacation first week of Sept and asked if it was ok to call with a credit card for the deposit. She said of course no problem. On 9/1/26 I call and Abby tells me the date is taken for the hours I wanted. I couldn't believe it and she was very nonchalant about it. The only thing she offered to rectify the problem after we had been talking for 10 mins was the brunch hours, but no discount or anything else to make up for this horrible customer service. She said Wendy had booked it two weeks before to members of a church who do events there every three months, which I responded must be a rich church to be doing that. I then reminded her I've been calling for the last five months and she said she was on vacation when the date was booked. I told her a true professional who sees that a customer is eager to book would have made a note and made her co-worker aware. I then suggested for her to speak to her boss to see if there's another solution and she said she will speak to Jimmy and call me back. I am still waiting for that call lol. I decided to call my plan B venue and they were also booked. I was so frustrated and decided to search for another place, but something kept telling me to call and speak to Wendy. I finally did and she shared with me that it was actually Abby who had booked the other party on that date because it was her handwriting in the book. I was blown away, but she did what the other one didn't do. She called the other party while I was on the phone and asked if they can switch and I heard when they said no. She then offered other dates, but that was not an option for me since I wanted to celebrate on my actual birthday. She did everything she was suppose to do to try and find a solution which Abby did not. She then suggested I speak to Jimmy in person and I did. To make a long story short, he did go out of his way to make me happy as he put it and offered great discounts but my celebration had to happen during brunch hours or on another date. My party theme is not for the daytime and I was not going to celebrate the day before or after my birthday when It falls on a Saturday. I appreciated Jimmy and Wendy's efforts but I decided not to have my celebration there. My friends and I came to the conclusion that Abby might be related to Jimmy because of the way she handled the whole situation unprofessionally and unbothered about consequences. I shared this horrible experience with my family and friends and I am sad and disappointed to say none of us will be going to Jimmy's again. I came here to share my experience so no one else goes through the same thing. BEWARE OF ABBY!!

  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jimmy’s Grand Cafe is one of those places that feels like a real part of the neighborhood. I actually remember when this location used to be Joe & Joe’s, and I also remember when Jimmy’s was located somewhere else. It’s really cool to see how the business has grown and changed over the years while still having that familiar neighborhood feel. The food is fresh, flavorful, and satisfying, with generous portions and plenty of options to choose from. Everything was prepared well and tasted like it was made with care. It’s the kind of place where you can come in for a quick meal or sit down and actually enjoy your food in a comfortable atmosphere. The service is friendly and welcoming, and the overall atmosphere makes Jimmy’s feel like a classic neighborhood cafe rather than just another restaurant. There’s something special about seeing a local business continue to be around and evolve over time, especially when you remember its earlier locations and what was there before. For me, Jimmy’s Grand Cafe has that combination of good food, friendly service, and local history that makes a place memorable. If you’re in the area, it’s definitely worth stopping in and supporting this longtime neighborhood spot. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  The shrimp mofongo was tasty, but the shrimp and sauce were served on the side. I think the sauce would have been much better poured over the mofongo. I also had a margarita from the happy hour menu, but it tasted too strongly of alcohol, so I wouldn’t order it again. My boyfriend had the steak with onions, white rice, beans, and a side salad. He enjoyed it overall, but there were a lot of onions.
