It's nestled in a shopping center and the you wouldn't think food is served here since it merely appears to be a grocery store from the outside. I called in the order and the friendly gentleman that took my order told me it would be ready in 20 minutes. I saw on Yelp it was exactly 20 minutes away so what perfect timing. As soon as I arrived our food was ready. There is no seating area so we had to eat in our car before we went back on the road. Everything from the rice to the perfectly seasoned kebabs exceeded our expectations. I already have this place bookmarked for our next trip up to Nova, and will have to try the chicken shwarmas next!

I have to say, after my first review about four months ago, this place has definitely changed. I'm…read morenot sure if it's under new management, new staff, or a different cook, but things are not the same. The once generous portions have shrunk down to something similar to Chipotle-sized servings. The staff, who used to be delightful, now seem less friendly, and the food just doesn't have the same flavor. Last week, I called to place an order, and they were out of rice. A few days later, I tried again, and when I picked up my food, I noticed the portion size had significantly decreased. Today, I tried to place an order at 7:30 pm for pickup at 8:30 pm, well within their posted store hours of 9:00 pm. The gentleman on the phone informed me that they couldn't prepare my order because they close at 8:20 pm. When I mentioned that their posted closing time was 9:00 pm, he explained that although they close at 9:00 pm, the kitchen shuts down by 8:30 pm, and I needed to pick up my food before then. I had already requested my order at 7:30 pm, well within their timeline, so this was frustrating. Unfortunately, I'll be taking my business back to Kabob Corner in Fredericksburg or Stafford.

They have their lunch buffet on weekdays, which is great, as most places only seem to do this on weekends. First impression when walking in was it was a converted Ruby Tuesday, but WOW, they did an EXCELLENT job from replacing the entire ceiling, flooring, tables/booths and even the window shades, to fully updating the restroom too, they clearly dumped a lot of money and effort into this place and it shows! The buffet looks beautiful, not grimey and messy, rather all food items are in clamshell heated servers, which kept the food fresh and piping hot. The offering was excellent, with a plain rice and a more elaborate rice, called Palau. The Qaubili Palau was incredible! Loaded with fresh ingredients and made with an outstanding quality basmati! The lamb that was in it was super tender and not gamey at all, rather perfectly seasoned and sooo very tasty! They also offered a more plain rice, which was slightly seasoned and also very good! Another fav of mine were their meatballs... they tasted like a mild lamb and were just as tender as that too (not sure if they're lamb tho). Flavor of the curry they were in was excellent! Their chick peas and subzi (spinach) were excellent alternatives for those not wanting meat... I definitely enjoyed a few servings of these!! Chicken kabob was beautiful in color and nicely flavored with a tenderness that was spot-on. Service was friendly and they even sincerely cared how the food was, by asking. I'd definitely suggest stopping in to try it for yourself and I look forward to returning, soon!

The restaurant is clean, a full bar, plenty of seatings indoors and out. There were 8 items ordered: 1) Greek Salad 2) Roasted Garlic Butter Wings 3) Taco Pizza 4) Soujouk 5) Musaka 6) Fried Mushrooms 7) Hummus 8) Mushroom Swiss Burger. All the appetizers were delicious individually but as you make your own mini charcuterie as I did. I took a piece of the naan bread, stack it with the hummus, musaka and topped with a half piece of soujouk. The combination of each element made this custom bite simply fantastic. The roasted garlic butter wings were crispy, tender but didn't taste of the garlic only butter. They were still good. The fried mushrooms were on point that were served with a dipping sauce. I really wanted the taco pizza to be awesome but it was lacking flavor. All of the toppings were generous portion, had a nice under carriage but just missing that one component. Alexa the server was very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxing. I would make another visit to try other items on their menu.

Recognized…read moreas one of Fredericksburg's best, it's consistently recommended by locals as one of the top breakfast places around. Service: The service is consistently excellent. While many servers deserve recognition, our most recent visit stood out thanks to Sam. She was friendly, helpful, courteous, and genuinely welcoming. Atmosphere: The restaurant features an open seating area, plus a separate side section with additional booths and tables. There's a subtle Greek feel to the space that adds character while still feeling casual and comfortable. Food & Popularity: Because Jimmy the Greek is so popular, wait times can vary depending on when you arrive, especially for larger parties of five or more. If you come later in the morning, they may run out of popular items like biscuits and gravy, which are signature breakfast dishes. On rare occasions, we've also experienced food that was slightly underdone (such as eggs under-cooked too soft or French toast that was a bit soggy). Overall Experience: Jimmy the Greek is one of the best breakfast spots in the Stafford/Fredericksburg area and even in several surrounding counties. Despite a few minor drawbacks, it remains one of our top breakfast choices and easily earns five stars. Our experiences have been consistently positive, and the quality of both the food and service keeps us coming back. I highly recommend giving it a try!

He gave detailed explanation about the dishes that made it taste even better. And the flavors were on point--from the refreshing sourness of the shafuta to the crisp fatoosh salad to the veggie marboka (so good slathered with the green chilis!) to the lamb fasha with fresh hot bread. Flavor and texture combos you won't find elsewhere! And of course we tried the spiced Yemeni coffee. When I mentioned it was my sister's birthday, he brought out a delicious, complementary piece of semolina cake with a honey syrup and two cups of shai So good, and even better with a little shai poured on top! From a cost perspective, you get large portions for a fair price, so be adventurous. Come for the food, stay for the hospitality. This is not an in-and-out-spot: it's a time to linger and enjoy. This place has to be next on your list of places to try.
