I dined at Jimmy's with my family tonight. The food was good and my waiter was a great young man but the rest of the wait staff openly made fun of me in front of my family and other customers. I have a severe cardiac condition (vEDS) and had my service dog with me. My dog is very professional and perfectly trained at cardiac alert tasks, public behavior and always us groomed before we leave to keep her tidy. She always wears her vest in public. She does still wear an "in training" tag because we're adding new tasks. She slept under the table quietly the whole meal and heeled at my side any time we moved. She was so well behaved that the table behind me and my waiter commented as we were leaving that they had no idea my dog was there. When I got to the front though on my way out the girls at the front, 4-5 of the wait staff, looked at us and started loudly complaining to each other "There is a time and a place for dogs and this isnt it" - They went on to complain that my dog had hair flying everywhere and it was unsanitary. This is untrue, she was groomed before leaving today and stayed still the whole time so there is no way she was unsanitary or even a nuisance. I went back to the desk and said "I dont know which of you said that but I have a cardiac condition." The family behind me told me good for me for standing up for myself and said the girls were very rude. Much of the staff obviously needs sensitivity training about how to treat people with disabilities as well as Americans with Disabilities Act compliance training. Disabled people do all they can to be able to live our lives without being a burden on our families, friends or the public. We don't need to be embarrassed by people that should know better when we try to live our lives. I wont be eating here again and due to the treatment, I discourage disabled people dining here, especially if you rely on a service dog like me.

It's wild how different opinions can be. I just saw when going to review this establishment that they have an over 4 star rating. I also had heard good things so my wife and I decided to give them a try. The interior of the place is nice enough, nothing crazy but clean and modern. The bar size was decent, not huge but not overly small either Starting off with the drinks, this was the best part for me. The B&B martini is often recommended so that's what I had and they were very good. The food on the other hand, not so much. Everything was pretty bland yet overly salty. I'd give the food here a 3 out of 5 with Peppercorn's being an example of a solid 4 for me and places like Ruth's Chris and Kai as 5's. The ribs were dry and not very flavorful. The french fries were generic frozen fries. The Cole slaw (which I love) was vinegar based and that's not my style, though I know many like it. The wings were dried out as well, not juicy. My wife did like the fried fish at least. If you live in the area, like real close and don't like to travel far, I can see why people would like it here. Other than that, it's a pass for me.

So I've been to this restaurant multiple times. I've always ordered the chicken Santorini, which has been my favorite. It's normally been a pasta dish (advertised under pasta dishes). This time, the lady taking my orders asked about sides, which I don't remember from previous times. I chose mashed potatoes. I go home, open the food and it's the sauce, chicken, and mashed potatoes. No pasta! Isn't that ridiculous? Maybe this was a recent change and I just don't know about it but it was disappointing. That's not the only reason why I gave 1 star. I also ordered the teriyaki steak, medium rare. It was actually cooked all the way through (see pic). I get that take out food might get a little more cooked if not eaten right away but I don't think it would cook the steak all the way through) It was a very sad looking dish to begin with and not even a handful of fries. They used to give more fries when I was there previously. So, all in all, this last experience was very disappointing and I feel like I wasted my money. It's a shame because I really liked this place.
