Coconut cream pie
Jack N.

Been going to this Jim n Nicks for 9yrs and today was the first time I can honestly I may not go back. Our service was good. But that was it. My order of Bar-B-Q Salad seemed old. The salad greens were old or had been pre-refrigerated, the tomatoes were soft and barely any croutons and they were smaller compared to the last 8 years, virtually no grated cheddar cheese, no bacon and a couple sliced almonds?! The complimentary cheddar rolls were not cooked enough and we got a 4 tiny ones in a big white bowl. The entire food presentation for each dish was not good at all. All food was just slapped on the plate very sloppily and sparsely. The pie we got in the photo looked like it was just plopped on there and was melted and prehandled. I questioned our server to make sure it was ok. So... not sure what's going with this location but I am thinking the food presentation quality and quantity has gone down a lot, cook training, and short cuts are being taken... perhaps new management? Something is going on. Very sad.

My first NC BBQ experience & it was delicious!!! Seriously hit the spot! The deviled eggs were perfect & the bread was sooo good, warm, fresh, & fluffy! I usually don't like corn bread but these were super good! The food came out warm and fresh when we went for lunch & pretty fast. The waitress was so nice & welcoming too!! The inside had lots of seating and even sold their bbq sauce!

Mr. Jim's Combo Plate - 3 meats
Diana R.

Swung by the drive-through today and was in and out in under 15 minutes--now that's how you do fast food with soul. I had every intention of ordering the Smoked Chicken Southern Salad... but let's be honest, it's hard to say no when the scent of smoked meat hits you from the parking lot. Ended up going with Mr. Jim's combo plate--three meats: smoked turkey, brisket, and ribs--with a side of the Morgan & Co. White Sauce (pro tip: do not skip it). Every bite was cooked to perfection. Juicy, flavorful, and full of that slow-smoked goodness I've been missing. My sides of the collard greens and coleslaw were very flavorful... Very good! If you're craving BBQ done right with lightning-fast service, this is your stop. No regrets. Only smoky, saucy satisfaction.

Right before writing this review, I realized this is a chain BBQ restaurant and that makes sense. We have been trying to find the best BBQ in the area so we decided to give this place a try. We started with the smoked wings which were huge and smoked just the way I like them. The gold mustard sauce lacked flavor but the dunk into ranch and blue cheese made up for it. I got the BBQ salad and my husband got a combo platter. The salad was a good size with plenty of pulled pork on top. I ate about half and took the rest home. My husband's brisket was a little dry, bland and smothered in a sauce that very closely resembled ketchup but I think it was supposed to be BBQ sauce? They do not have hushpuppies, instead they serve cheese biscuits. They also do not offer different BBQ sauces for your meats. The service was very friendly and we had a good experience, I just think you can find way better BBQ in Charlotte.

This was our second time here and it was great on both visits. Service was very good, inside was clean and nice atmosphere. Great tasting BBQ! Baked beans are very good also and love those little cheddar muffins.

Always so yummy! The service is great and the food is even better. We will definitely be back

"We Give you our best"

Me and my family(4 people total) arrived to this Jim and Nicks location at 9:32 PM, and were seated at 9:34 PM. We ordered drinks and the waitress told us everything they didn't have before telling us what they did have. From the time we walked in we felt rushed. We received the classic Cheese Biscuits that everybody loves. However, we didn't love our biscuits because they were cold and obviously they were not as enjoyable as they generally would be. We were then told after the fact that the last biscuits that were made fresh were made at 8:30 PM and that the location closed in 15 minutes. We received our food about 10 minutes later and there was no issues with our main courses. For Jim and Nick's slogan to be "We Give You Our Best" we sadly did not receive Jim and Nicks Best. Next time Jim and Nicks give us your best!

Came here for dinner on a Friday and luckily we arrived before the crowds. Our server was attentive and prompt. We ordered the onion rings as an appetizer and I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly it arrived. Everything was delicious, hot and fresh. Will definitely return.

Bar-B-Q Dinner - Baby Backs with muffins
Tamica J.

The customer service PHENOMINAL! I ordered 1/2 rack of baby backs. When I say they were SALTY, it was too much for me. It gave me a headache. I even tried to push thru but it's a no for me. Plus the meat was over smoked. Baked beans pretty good. Muffins were ok. Ambiance is family friendly. Will I be back? I would try them again, but get something else. Have you been here? If you go send me a message in what to try.

This is some great barbecue in the Carolinas, you can tell it's a popular place by the amount of people in there.I had the pulled pork with corn on the cob and one had the brisket with Mac and cheese, both were really delicious and great bbq sauces too. Our waitress was really friendly. She even gave me a sample of collard greens which I loved. my families been there a few times before so I know all the food is good baby back ribs are a hit.

Fresh, delicious food matters...hot food served hot, cold food served cold...but customer service is the gateway to the entire experience. The first person who greets a customer and takes their order sets the tone for everything that follows. A genuine smile, kindness, professionalism, and a positive attitude create an atmosphere where customers feel welcomed and valued. Connor was the first person who assisted me. He took my original order for two salads and two rosemary pepper fries, and when I decided to come back and add an order of tenders, he was just as patient, friendly, and helpful the second time. He was knowledgeable about the menu, professional, and genuinely pleasant throughout our interaction. Braden, who was preparing the food, was equally impressive. He was kind, friendly, professional, and clearly knowledgeable about what he was doing. Both Connor and Braden had the absolute best attitudes. Their kindness didn't feel forced or scripted; it felt authentic, and that makes all the difference. The food here is delicious, fresh, and satisfying, but it's the quality of customer service that determines whether I become a returning customer. When issues arise, I appreciate businesses where employees approach them with kindness, professionalism, and accountability. Based on my experience, Connor and Braden represent those values exceptionally well. I also want to express my appreciation for offering a military discount. As a retired U.S. Air Force veteran who proudly served for 20 years, that gesture is meaningful and greatly appreciated. Please extend my sincere thanks to Connor and Braden for making my visit such a positive experience. They are wonderful representatives of your restaurant and deserve recognition for the care and professionalism they show every customer.

Gave Super Chix a try and it went fairly well for the most part…read more Service was very good. Order taken with no issues and noticed employees cleaning and making sure trash was removed so a good clean start. Ordered the Crispy Avacado with a tender added and fries with Cajun seasoning. Also added a vanilla milkshake. Food arrived promptly and looked very impressive. Sandwich was fantastic. The avocado itself is enough but adding the tender turned it into a super sandwich. The fries were also good and crispy. Only complaint about them was while there was a lot of fries, many of them were fry bits. So just random ends of fries. Seasoned well but a bit disappointing. The vanilla shake was not done well. It was not thick at all and very watery. Mixed reviews on the items but as I noted, the sandwich was fantastic.

First of all the store is sparkling new and is well designed and appointed. I especially like the…read morecolor schemes which made for a pleasant dining experience. The staff was kind and accommodating which we appreciated, too. But, as their name declares, it's about the burger and that's where they let us down. Their style is rolling the meat thin to get a perfect bun:meat ratio, which they nailed. But the burger is literally tasteless. Remove the condiments and the mustard and you're left with a gray, lifeless disc of beef just begging for a hard sear and seasoning. Disappointing. Moreover, both our buns were dried out and the sliced tomatoes were not ripe. Has my "Give 'em a Whirl" meter wondering if we should try them again or look somewhere else.

Welp, I held out for long enough and I'm finally fed up enough to give a review/warning…read more I love the place. The Burgers and fries are great. They have apple pies that taste like what McDonalds used to serve over 15 years ago before they got cheap with them. My problem with them is however they organize putting the order together into the bag. 95% of the time I go there, there's something wrong. Most of the time, it's that they don't give me my dipping sauce. For most places, I wouldn't care about the mistake and just eat my meal. However, unlike most other places, this franchise charges $0.50 for a dipping cup and you don't get a complimentary one. Other times, I'm missing my apple pie. Luckily, It takes me 2 seconds looking in the bag to notice because they have this annoying protocol of having drive through customers pull forward, away from the window to wait on your food (unlike other places, it's not because 1 item you ordered is being made and allowing other customers to get their food and go around you while you wait). It turns into me rushing to open the bag and find a problem before they disappear into the building. Now come to today. Same old, same old. They managed to remember my dipping cup but forgot my entire apple pie. Waved them down, got it and took off. Fast forward to getting home and I open my burger to find that my double is suddenly a single with jalapenos on it. I have never been to any food place that forgets and messes my order up more frequently than I have here. It's not a food problem, I love the food. It's a problem with the people working in it, which is more than likely because of whatever very specific way the franchise wants their workers to do things. If you go here, make sure you have everything you paid for. You will probably need to be vigilant here more so that any other place you've gone to combined.

What a great place to buy fresh meat or fish. The place was packed with customers either picking up…read morepre order food or placing an order like us. You can buy rubs, marinades, salads, sides, bread, rolls, desserts, etc. They also have frozen wild game if that is what you are into. It was unfortunate that half their store did not have power as we were not able to see any of the meat or fish on display. iI was ok we were not able to hand select our steaks or fish - the store has such a great reputation we were not too worried about what we would end up with. We decided to order 4 prime marinated NY strip and 2 tuna steaks. They make theur own naribade so we had to try it. We also wanted to try one of frozen pre-made meals so we chose the sausage and pasta with vodka sauce. While in line to checkout we saw more than a few people with trays of cinnamon buns so we had to try them as well. This is a summery of our purchased food:. The cinnamon rolls were grainy. Not smooth. I think they were old (I had to pull them from the back). The steaks had a great flavor as the marinade was really good. Three of the 4 steaks were over cooked because we were given 4 different sized steaks. 2 got burnt the third was well done....$60 wasted. The tuna was good but again they gave us one large steak and one thinner one so the smaller was was dry....another $15 wasted. If I can make any suggestion....do not make a purchase without seeing what you are buying. $136.00 later I can say I was disappointed because of the unevenness it was cooked improperly. 4 stars because the cook is partially to blame. 3 stars otherwise. The sales person is the first person that should know better than to sell meat and fish the way they did. Ruined my Christmas meal. Only 1 of us ate. :(
