Jimmy The Beef Guy Ft Myers 4-4-25 Stopped by around 11:45am on a Friday. This place was busy but clean and neat. You must order at the counter as they do not have table service. In fact, there are very few tables inside to sit down at. There are a lot of stand-up counters and a couple high top tables or there are outside tables on the front deck area to sit at. The order line moved quickly for as busy as they were. They seemed very organized, and it did not take them long to call our order number so we could pick up our food. We sat out on the deck area to eat our food which I liked. We both got the Italian Beef Sandwich with Sweet Peppers and mine had Mozzarella on it with a side order of Fries to share. Our sandwiches were stuffed full of Beef and topped with lots of Sweet Peppers. Mine had the Mozzarella through out the entire sandwich. One thing that’s special about these sandwiches is most times Roast Beef is too dry for me to eat it but not these as there is some kind of Au jus or Gravy on it and even the ends of the sandwich are dipped in the same kind of Beef Au jus or Gravy. They call this wet, and it took these sandwiches to the next level. They were so tasty and flavorful, but they are a little messy to eat so make sure you have plenty of napkins available. You can get them dry, but I would advise you to get them wet you will not be sorry. Our Fries came in a large bag and there was plenty of them for both of us and they were very good. All our food was hot tasty and plenty for the both of us. Their menu is limited, and prices are average but they do charge you extra for the Sweet Peppers or Mozzarella. You have to give Jimmy The Beef Guy a try and I grantee you will go back just like I want too. I must give this place 4 out of 5 stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Follow Me On FB For More...
Read moreTrue Chicago Beef Stand Here in Ft. Myers My wife and I have permanently relocated here from northern Illinois, about 50 miles northwest of Chicago. Chicago style italian beef sandwiches are like Chicago style pizza – very hard to find outside of the Chicago area. Until now!! We passed the Beef Guy several times since we moved here and finally made it there and it is on our regular rotation now. Just like up north, it’s a small place with a few tables inside and some out front and a counter for ordering. The menu is simple – Italian Beef, Italian Sausage, Beef and Sausage Combo, Steak and a Maxwell Polish. Add-ons include sweet peppers, giardiniera and cheese. Italian beef egg rolls, Cup of Cheese and Fries are available sides. It was fun to see a sign telling non-Chicagoans hot to pronounce giardiniera – Jar-Din-Air. Our choice was easy. My wife ordered the Italian Beef ($13.00) with Sweet Peppers ($0.75). I ordered the same Italian Beef with Giardiniera ($0.75). Our counterperson said the French Fries ($4.00) would be plenty for the two of us to share so we got that also. Bottled Water runs ($1.50). It was a nice sunny day, so we sat outside and the umbrella made for welcomed shade. They called our name and joyful anticipation peaked. The Beefs were double wrapped in paper, just like in Chicago, and the aroma was mouth watering. Hefty sandwiches for sure which felt like they were slightly ‘dipped’. Oh the flavor! Just like Chicago!! The toasted French bread roll absorbed much of the juice and held up from start to end. The giardiniera is the hot variety, but not too hot. Indeed, the fries are plenty for two to share. And just to make it more like Chicago, they stream Chicago’s own 97.1 fm, WDRV, The Drive, classic rock station inside and out. Great food, great radio,...
