First I like this place but it is overrated on trip advisor. The famous burger should not be famous for anything other than it's a fair deal. Mine was dry one pickle end piece of tomato white lettuce and a cheap bun. Frozen French fries and coffee ( good ) for under five bucks. My girl had the Greek sandwich... More

I have loved Jimmy's since I first ate there in 1989, in their original location. I was a regular and it had a "Cheers" feel where everyone there knew your name. My favorite is the hamburger special with a hot dog on the side. I also loved to go for breakfast on Saturdays when I had to work. More

My husband and I checked out Jimmys for dinner. We went a little earlier than we typically eat because Jimmy's closes at 7:00 pm. But it was totally worth it. I would definately recommend the hot open face roast beef sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy, it was super yummy! My husband and I each had a piece of warm... More

Well I'm visiting VA while attending a military school, I did a web search for local restaurants and Jimmy's came up as the number 1 rated place. So I decided to plug them into my GPS and find out how good they were, when I got to the restaurant it looked like a house converted into a small dining area.... More

We stopped here after reading good reviews from others to have dinner. They have been in business for 40+ years and the prices are extremely reasonable. It was very clean, and the staff was welcoming. Of course, we had to have dessert too, and that was also very good. We are healthy eaters and do not like to stop for... More

We wanted to go out for breakfast on a weekday but didn't want to go to the usual chain restaurants. Jimmy's is a small, family owned restaurant, the cleanest eating establishment I have ever been in. You can sit at the counter and look right into the kitchen (nothing to hide here), or you can sit at a table or... More
