Wifey and I stopped in here for lunch on a hot day in April. We sat at the bar and had a great chat with the bartender...who was new that day and being trained. We kept it simple for her and ordered a beer and one of their drink specials. We also shared a fried seafood basket with Old Bay fries. The basket was delicious- shrimp were fairly large, the fish was done perfectly, and the fries were well done like we requested. (There was something else in the basket but I don't remember what it was, maybe calamari). You're gonna pay boardwalk prices, but Jimbo's is a great place for a beer and some lunch. read more

Good Enough We visited this restaurant in mid-September 2025. It is located on the Seaside Heights Boardwalk. We sat on the back deck, at a "rocking table," which was fun (although be careful you knock your drinks on yourself!). Service was pleasant and efficient. The food was OK - the nachos were basically some chips and dip, certainly nothing fancy. The portions of the entrees (such as quesadillas and tacos) were good and filling. The drinks were great - we especially loved the "buckets!" I'd rate this restaurant a 3.5...but since there are no "half-stars" and since it's on the Boardwalk (where pizza is considered a food group), I'll bump it up to 4. But that's a "4" on the Boardwalk - anywhere else, it's maybe a 3. Overall: If you're looking for a decent, family-friendly place to sit down and eat on the Boardwalk, this is a good choice. Thanks read more

Loved it here! Food was amazing, right on the boardwalk. Service was great! Everything was priced well and food came out fast read more

I went on a vacation to the Jersey shore and had to stop at Jimbo's for a drink. I got a draft beer and a mixed drink with a shark in it. It was so adorable. The drink wasn't weak, but not overly strong where it was unbearable .I am biased to any restaurant/bar on a boardwalk so I rate the experience 10 out of 10. I sat at the bar. Everything was really cute. There were three separate areas where you could get different food .I don't remember our bartender's name, but she was extremely nice. I kept the shark with grenadine in it for a souvenir. read more

We were visiting from the midwest a week or so ago, took a family outing to the Boardwalk and walked into Jimbo's pretty randomly- we were a large group (10 of us, including my mom with a walker), and even on a pretty busy night they were able to seat us right away. Food was good (had the Taylor Ham- sorry, the Porkroll), our server was great and the hostess did a fantastic job of making sure my mom was comfortable- she went out of her way to check on us, and made my mom feel like royalty. We couldn't be more thrilled with our experience there, hoping we'll get back to New Jersey someday, and if we do Jimbo's will be part of our tradition. read more

I was pleasantly happy with my lunch from here a chicken sandwich. We were there early for lunch just as they opened on a weekday, menu at that time is more limited but still a lot to pick from. Chicken sandwich grilled was perfect and fresh, great crispy fries. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. read more

Looking for a new go-to in seaside on the boardwalk. The bartenders were great (Sofia and Charlie, I think, I'm horrible with names) beer was cold very cold, the draughts were poured perfectly, just enough foam so you could drink more without the "bloat" Sofia worked hard, restocking, but still had time to chat a minute and be engaged. The wings were legit, crispy not overcooked, a few more sauce options would be good and maybe let them drain another minute. The street corn was barely warm, but tasty. The cheesesteak was good, but again, maybe let the oil and grease drain another minute. The manager kind of ruined things, hearing her talk down to the staff within earshot of the customers. I'll return and hopefully it gets better. Overall a good start and the staff makes up for the deficiencies elsewhere. read more

I made my annual stop at Jimbo's while in the area and had another great experience. My friend and I arrived around opening time, but were told they wouldn't be opening for a while longer due to the bartender not being on site yet. It wasn't a big deal, so we came back later in the day and were able to grab a spot at the bar. We ended up spending several hours there, chatting with the bartender who took excellent care of us. The mixed drinks were spot on, and we had fun enjoying a karaoke event. I was pleasantly surprised by the food, especially my gluten-free pizza, which was awesome. As usual, I had such a great time hanging out at Jimbo's and can't wait to return next year. read more

SEASIDE HEIGHTS: we love meeting people while out and about with Brie and we were lucky enough to run into Dana, the bar manager at Jimbo's Bar and Grill who told us about their dog friendliness. Leashed and friendly dogs are allowed at multiple spots at Jimbo's, including their back outdoor patio, side patio that is covered by the roof, front patio, and when it's not too crowded and at manager's discretion, at the indoor seating. They have a huge casual menu with comfort foods and a full bar with great cocktails. This is a great place to watch the game with multiple TVs, enjoy the ocean breeze, meet new friends, and see a live band. Even The Incredible Spanky hangs out here! Ask for a plate of bacon for your pup! read more

1 STAR Jumbo's - Seaside Heights, NJ If I could give zero stars, I would. The service at Jumbo's was absolutely terrible. From the moment we sat down, our waiter didn't even greet us -- no "hello," no smile, nothing. Just a rude "what you getting?" like we were a burden for showing up. Then it got worse. There was a hair in my food. When I pointed it out and told him I wasn't paying for it, he gave me an attitude and basically tried to argue with me about it. Instead of handling the situation professionally, he refused to get the manager and acted like I was the problem. Yes, they took the shrimp off the bill, but he had the nerve to say, "That was your last shrimp," as if I should've been grateful. Then, to top it off, he expected us to tip him $10 after all that. Horrible service. Disrespectful staff. Do better, Jumbo's. Plenty of places on the boardwalk treat their customers with basic respect -- this is not one of them. This place honestly deserves to not even be on the boardwalk come next year and honestly should be shut down. Took my girlfriend here after the beach for what I was hoping to be a very nice enjoyable lunch on Memorial Day however it was the total opposite. I don't know what the waiters name was but he deserves to be fired to. I do not recommend going here just awful service. Go to spicys they are way better and much nicer. Do not give this place a nickel!!! You will thank me later! read more

Jimbo's Bar and Grill - Look closely you will see the hair on my old bay shrimp I ordered - Burgers Near Me - Seaside Heights, New Jersey

Really being generous with 2 stars. The Mexican street corn was disgusting. It seems like they drench it with the gross mayo like sauce, to cover up old corn. The cheeseballs may have been worse. The coating seemed like it was stale, and I have no idea what kind of yellow cheese was in them. Couldn't even eat half between the 4 of us. Not even going to mention the sandwiches and salads as there is no need to pile on. read more

If you like waiting forever for drinks while swatting flies, Jimbo's is your spot. My cheesesteak came on bread so soft it disintegrated -- I needed a spoon, not a roll. Busy crowd's no excuse for soggy food and sluggish service. read more

This place was just ok for me. We originally picked it because it was not playing any live music at the time. Don't get me wrong I love live music, but sometimes I just need a break. The moment we ordered they started blasting!! the tvs. There was a game on so I get it, but I was just so disappointed. We were looking for something small so we each ordered a drink (we both enjoyed) and truffle parm fries (I did not enjoy these at all). Our server was really friendly and tried to make it a point to talk to us and other tables he was tending to. read more

Went to this place many times during a five night stay at the shore. Absolutely loved it. The service is great and the food is the best bang for your buck on the boardwalk. Lots of standard bar food options, as well as a full sushi menu and lots of specialty cocktails. Whether you're in the mood for just a hot dog and a coke or coconut shrimp and a piña colada, they've got you covered. Service was somehow even better during extremely busy times. Literally no wait for a table and just a few minutes for drinks and food even on a busy Saturday. They're on top of everything but they're never rushing you to finish your meal. Only downside was the bathrooms could be a little cleaner, but for a super busy place on the boardwalk it could be a lot worse. The decor is super fun too. read more

Pros: menu options, location, atmosphere Cons: price, quality of food could be better Very passable location! Food is what you'd expect of a very transited place (tons of appetizers, sandwiches, platters, etc). It's not the best meal you'll ever have, or the cheapest, but for the convenience and as a one off, you won't go wrong. Our service was fast, but also it's early June so less people that peak season. Music blasting but not uncomfortable, sports on the TVs. read more

Beer and steamers! Can't go wrong stopping by here. Great wait staff and the clams were fresh

The food and service were excellent. But, sadly, the speakers were full volume playing classic rock tunes. I had to rush out of there. If I'm at the shore, I will skip this place if I hear blaring music. Jimbo was inconsiderate. read more

This review is solely based on the interaction we had with,someone in a management position. I was going to reach out to owner but I was informed that she is the owner (not sure if this is factual). We had a gift card that wasn't working. Not a huge deal but we told her that we won the gift card at a recent event that is held annually to raise money to feed military families. She happened to know the person who runs this amazing event and who is a friend of ours. She proceeded to speak poorly of him, and make accusations about where the gift card may have come from. Honestly it was just rude and unnecessary and made us feel really uncomfortable. Our waiter was great. We will never go here again. read more

Egh. I know I was on a boardwalk so I have to temper expectations but this one was not good. The highlight was the portion size of the pizza (although super greasy) but that was about it. The price for the quality and portions is probably what bothered me most. $9 for a basic Caesar no protein. $14 bucks for three frozen tenders reheated hand full of fries. $8 for truffle fries that had hardly any oil and slices of cheese on it as if it was a pasta dish. Four things for almost $60!! I still don't comprehend it!! They have young wait staff which was frustrating that couldn't split bill or substitute fries on a dish. Just. Awful. Literally ruined my perfect day. read more

Great food tried three or four different dishes over the last week. Just moved to the area but definitely will be my go to place for sports.

Came here during the day, so the place wasn't that full. I am sure at night it's quite busy. Service was very attentive minus the smile. No server had any smile on. As a starter, got the Jimbo's special sushi roll. Looked very good, catches your eye and tasted really good too. For my main, got steak fajitas. DO NOT EVEN BOTHER TO HAVE IT! Vegetables chopped big, steaks were tender, but looked like cooked before and thrown on the skillet before it is served. Do not care for it. I wouldn't come back here again. Rather drive some place else and get better food. read more

Really fresh sushi and a refreshing drink. Had a nice time there today and waitresses were very friendly

Alright let's get the highlights out of the way first: The service is great, the wings were decent and the water was cold...got that all in? Good. Now for the real stuff. The Bleu cheese they serve with the wings has the consistency of mayo and a jaundice-yellow color to it. The "fries" are tasteless, lack ANY seasoning that isn't dirty oil, and the parnesean on them was spoiled. The pineapple in their Teriyaki Tacos looks an tastes like it went bad in the Summer of '94 (smells terrible, tastes terrible, is transparent in color) and the teriyaki sauce is horrendous. The chips and salsa is tasteless and the the salsa looks and tastes like it was made during Hurricane Sandy. All and all this place has fallen off a cliff and I wouldn't come back. read more

I'll start with what to order and what not to, as this is what I looked for when i first got there... Do get there drink, the mermaid water was great, despite getting two very different versions from two very attentive bartenders. Do get the Fat Jimbo or whatever variant the menu has. Mine was a burger with Taylor ham/ pork roll, cheese, a mozzarella stick, and an onion ring, etc. The accoutrements were decent by themselves and were deconstructed and eaten separately. The onion ring and mozzarella stick were "good"*. The burger was precooked but passable. The fries were decent, salty, but enjoyable. Don't get the lukewarm oysters, served without ice, or mignette, or horseradish, or flavor... and don't get the deep fried pickles that were cold in the center. Definitely don't get the gringo tacos as the chicken tomato and cheese tasted the same, or didn't taste, either way... definitely ask them what to get. They were pretty right, relatively, about the fat beach whatever. The menu and reviews suggest they have several versions of this combo dish, but it was all hot and the mozzarella stick and onion ring were great. They seem to know what's best, so definitely ask. The food comes from several kitchens so they know... Great service, and great vibe commensurate with location. The servers, if you take a moment to connect with them, are awesome and efficient; at least at the bar. Even the food "runners" were genuinely interested... I'm a foodie; but people come first and their people do the best with what they have to work with, which among other things is a spectacular piece of boardwalk with the best people watching. I'd give 3 stars or less if this were anywhere else, but who doesn't feel generous with stars after two mermaid waters????? read more

Jimbo's Bar and Grill - Fat Seaside Sandwich, 3 Gringo Taco, Fried Pickle - Burgers Near Me - Seaside Heights, New Jersey

Nothing special despite the impressive menu -- we were totally let down. Came here on a whim and liked how many seafood options there were including sushi rolls and poke bowls but man were we disappointed. First off, our server was incredibly friendly but we had to wave her down for anything we wanted including to order. She would walk past us 10 times until we could get her attention. I ordered the salmon poke bowl and my boyfriend asked her for a recommendation and she told him to order the fish and chips so he did. My poke bowl was good -- it had a good amount of sushi grade salmon, avocado, seaweed salad and rice. My boyfriend's meal, however, looked and tasted like frozen fish you'd get at the supermarket. Within two bites he didn't want to eat any more of it. I'd recommend coming here for their frozen drinks and enjoying the boardwalk vibe. Skip the meal! read more

I came here for drinks with my family. It was a fun spot, but definitely touristy. It's not somewhere I would come all the time since it's on the boardwalk but since I was there, this did the trick! It's your typical boardwalk bar. I got Marilyn's Secret for a drink and the bartender made it taste really good and strong! Fun atmosphere with live music later on! A good place to come for drinks if you're on the board walk. read more

Stopped by on a Sunday night and had the best service I have ever had at a seaside bar. The three guys behind the bar checked in on us consistently and answered every question we had; I just wish I remembered their names! We had the coconut shrimp appetizer and it was the best shrimp I have ever had - obviously fresh, not chewy in the slightest, and extremely hot when served. Would highly recommend to anyone! read more

If you want season-less food. You're at the right spot. Taco Bell has more seasoning than this spot - do not order their tacos. I honestly do not recommend coming here for food. They do not provide condiments at every table- if you want ketchup you'll probably have to ask for the bottle that has been passed around the entire restaurant countless times - if you're not vaccinated, good luck. Drinks on the other hand 3 out of 5 stars. Overall experience: go somewhere else. read more
