Let me preface that I'm usually not a huge sandwich or American food perso., so I don't usually go out of my way to diners, American fare restaurants at all. But..I was at an event where the place catered lunch from Jimmy's. Initially, I wasn't so excited seeing all the assorted meats croissants sandwiches..you know..ham, turkey and roastbeef slices, etc. I nonchalantly picked chicken salad croissant sandwich because I would never order it..and frankly...chicken salad in my mind just wasn't nevermore choice at all because u thought of the dry shredded chicken with mayo..mostly! But...omg..I was soo pleasantly surprised how good Jimmy's chicken salad croissant sandwich was. Notably, the salad was moist..and very well seasoned..a lil of sweetness in it. I loved it so much that I found myself grabbing a second one!! And that never really happened to me especially anything to do with sandwiches! Now I found something I really love. I'm actually looking on Jimmy's website during my afternoon session to see when I can find time to eat at Jimmy's next! Check this place out! I can see why many people love it! read more

Went to Jimmy's just before New Year's for breakfast. What a well oiled machine it was. We were greeted promptly and were told about 10 to 15 minute wait despite a lot of people waiting. It went by so fast, it could have been less time than quoted. Once sat, we were greeted quickly and our server was top tier. I wish I could remember her name but she was phenomenal! I ordered a breakfast burrito with bacon and green chile, it was delicious! The only thing I would say is ask your server which chile is hotter that day because the green certainly had a kick but delicious nonetheless! My partner had the green chile chicken skillet which was like a deconstructed green enchilada plate with eggs and it was also yummy! Overall, it was such a pleasant experience. They know what they're doing for sure! If you're new in town, stop on by and if you're a local, then chances are you already know! #supportlocal read more

Had an excellent breakfast here and the staff was friendly and attentive. Love the decor. Guess the there...famous Jimmy/james/jim's. Loved it. read more

What a cute simple breakfast and lunch spot! I loooove all the different Jim and Jimmy's all over the walls! I ordered the southwest eggs benedict and boy they load you up with chile and it is hot! Make sure you are mentally prepared for the heat- I was not! The hollandaise sauce was rich and delicious! My boyfriend got the French dip which was fabulous. I took a few bites of it cuz I couldn't get enough! I wanted a mocha but they don't have any fancy coffees- all good with me, I got a hot chocolate and it came out hot, fast and sooo tasty. I've been burned by mid hot cocoas recently and this made my week! read more

Jimmy's Cafe On Jefferson - Southwest Eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

No matter how busy Jimmy's gets, it's consistently worth the wait. This is the kind of local spot where you find "your order" and never open the menu again, the same staff greets you every time, and the service is always quick, friendly, efficient, and reliable. The atmosphere is quirky, with simple cafe tables surrounded by every type of 'Jimmy' related media you can think of - movie posters, photos, murals, etc. The food is always delicious and fresh, both the red & green chile are excellent (why choose? Order both!) We keep coming back, and we're always glad we did. read more

Great experience here! I ordered the breakfast enchiladas with chicken and my husband ordered the green chile chicken skillet. Both were delicious! The hashbrowns were great and so was the enchiladas. The service was great, everyone working went out of their way to be kind and accommodating. Would totally recommend this place! My only comment is that the green chile on the enchilada and skillet were pretty spicy, so I feel like there should be s spice warning on the menu! read more

Jimmy's Cafe On Jefferson - 3 Breakfast Enchiladas - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Ordered 2 huevos rancheros to go while in ABQ for the week and this place was closest to my airbnb. Wow! The green chile was some of the best I have had, with a great kick that leaves you breathing thru ur mouth just a lil bit. Great portion size, and came with tortillas and beans. Order came super fast and hot, packaged well in a sturdy bag w silverware. Will definitely be ordering from here again (and again) during this visit to ABQ! I come here often for family, and have a list of my fav green chile spots in ABQ and this place will be added to my favorites. read more

Very nicely enjoyed. There were lines out the door on a Tuesday at lunch. I've NEVER seen this place without a wait, but it's worth it. Service was on it! The ambiance was clean and grandma's place (my opinion), and restful. The food was great. I had their breakfast burrito and finished it. I was so FULL. I was with a old friend, so didn't take pics. It's worthy! read more

We are traveling and this place looked promising. Tried the 3 meat omelette which was tasty. Also had veggie salad, all the ingredients very fresh! Coffee delicious and got a free cup to go. Service was excellent read more

Tried this place for the first time and it was delicious. I had the Denver omelet and it was the best I've ever had. They grilled all the veggies and meat that was in there and I could taste the difference. The service was fast and the place was very clean read more

My name isn't Jimmy. However, I do have a brother named Jimmy. Both are great and Wirth the stop!

Gracious good morning on this wonderful Spring Day. Seems that we are drawn back to another one of our favorites with excellent food, efficient service, and an interior with lots of art of the wall that will have you walking around the dining areas to investigate it all. Jimmy's Cafe is one of the best places to grab breakfast or lunch.

First time at Jimmy's Cafe. They serve a lot of people and have a nice menu featuring breakfast classics as well as New Mexican staples, sandwiches, and burgers. The prices are reasonable too. My guests rated their skillets and cheesesteaks as an 8/10. My chicken skillet was more like a 5/10. Our main issue was that it took almost an hour for our food to arrive. I know they were very busy but this was breakfast basics(eggs, potatoes, toast) and a cheesesteak. Our server took our order in a timely manner, refilled drinks, etc but was noticeably absent while we waited for almost an hour. She stopped by once to say our food would be out soon and then we waited another 25 minutes. I'm going to give Jimmy's Cafe another try in the future but right now I'll only give it a 3/5 review. They can do better. read more

This is a fantastic spot for breakfast or lunch. The staff are friendly, and the food is served quickly and is well-prepared. The selection for both breakfast and lunch is excellent and very satisfying. I know a few people who consider this their go-to breakfast place, and I can see why. read more

Jimmy's Cafe is one of our favorite local spots to visit when in town. The atmosphere is casual and inviting. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The food is delicious! So many options to choose from! If you're in the area, check it out! Also, those little empanadas and bizcochos at the checkout counter, amazing! read more

Jimmy's Cafe On Jefferson - 3 Breakfast Enchiladas: red sauce, carne adobada, flour tortilla and coffee - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Ordered pecan banana pancakes. Really thought they would be mixed in with the pancake batter. Asked for crisp bacon and it was REALLY CRISP (burnt). Love the service and atmosphere. Will try again with a different menu choice. read more

Food here is so good, I cleaned my plate. Huevos Rancheros can be ordered as a small plate for people with smaller appetites. This was just perfect for me. My husband had a breakfast burrito that was excellent. It's a pleasant place with lots of interesting pictures on the walls. We will definitely be back. read more

I've been to Jimmy's three or four times since it's near my office and other employees recommended it. Everything I've tried (breakfast, salads, the MOS burger) has been fresh and cooked the way I requested. Service is always prompt and friendly, too. The themed decorations are fun! read more

We make it a point to have breakfast at Jimmy's Cafe every time we come to Albuquerque. The food and service are consistently amazing. Perla was our server today and she was very friendly, helpful, and efficient. read more

It was great! I am from out of town and a huge part of travel for me is trying the local food. The Huevos Rancheros was fantastic! The green chili has a slight kick and everything else tasted great. The decor/theme was interesting. Considering being in Albuquerque, not being able to find a reference to "Slippin Jimmy" (from Better Call Saul), was a bit disappointing. If I missed it, please let me know! If not, you should add it in somewhere! The food was great, definitely glad I stopped in! read more

On our trip back to Albuquerque we stopped at Jimmy's and so glad we did. I loved all the different combinations and that you could get breakfast through the day. I love the southwestern eggs Benedict with the hot chopped green chili on top. Super delicious. I've never had better service than when we go to Jimmy's. We've been there three times and it's been exceptional every time. The decor is cute and I love that the noise level is soft. It's hard to find that in any restaurants anymore. read more

Everything about Jimmy's is wonderful. From the Food, to the Staff, to Green Chile! I love Jimmys!

Excellent breakfast! I had the Stephen breakfast that was a generous portion of hash browns, two eggs prepared perfectly as ordered, green chili and toast. The hash browns had a little cheese to make it perfect and the green chili gave it a nice little kick. The plate was served hot so that added to the satisfaction. Note: I was highly impressed with the patriotic things around the restaurant especially the prominent display of our nation's colors. That kind of pride is awesome! read more

We had a business meeting up the street and heard raves about Jimmy's. The first thing I noticed was the Jimmy Neutron poster on the wall. We arrived and were immediately seated. After discussing the many options we ordered. My husband went with the breakfast burrito. I order the green Chile chicken skillet. Let me tell you with absolute delight I loved my meal. The Chile was perfectly spicy and the chicken melted in my mouth. It was an amazing balance of flavors. We both got plenty to eat and enjoyed the left overs. Good thing because I would still be dreaming about that savory delight. During our meal it dawned on me that everyone on the wall decor was a James, Jim, or Jimmy. Real or fictional it was fun figuring them out. Definitely will be back. read more

We went for a quick ride and came back into town and found ourselves. Starving! We have to pass by Jimmy's and remembered that we hadn't been there in a long time. Apparently, it's been way too long! Walking in your immediately greeted and seated. The place is clean with a great atmosphere and plenty to look at! Once the food came out, nobody was talking. Yes, the food is slap Your grandma good!!! The huevos rancheros, and the lunch burrito were absolutely the bomb! I couldn't finish it, so the rest is going home for later. The staff was exceedingly friendly and helpful. A great place to stop in for great New Mexican food! read more

4.5/5 There's quite a few breakfast spots on Jefferson and out of the ones I have tried, I think Jimmy's, so far, is my favorite. I've tried Ramona's, Milly's, and now Jimmy's. This place is busy! Large groups of families are here. The place is pretty big to accommodate large groups as well as a busy breakfast morning. The menu is a bit extensive, which usually worries me because to me a large menu typically means lower quality. Not here. I couldn't decide what I wanted because I wanted about 3 things from the menu. I ordered the Breakfast Combo with a side of red/green Chile that I ended up smothering everything in. Both red and green chiles were good. Pancakes were alright. I chose sausage patties as my meat and I do not regret it. Breakfast places typically cheap out on their breakfast sausages by buying those thin chewy nasty sausage frozen patties from the store, but not Jimmy's. These sausage patties were legit. Thanks for not making me regret my decision lol Overall, the food was good. I'd for sure come back. Service was excellent. We had this young girl and she was hustling. She was running from table to table checking on everything. She was incredible. If you're coming with a large group be prepared to wait, especially on the weekend. Plenty of parking in the lot! Enjoy! read more

I love this place! Basic fare, basic atmosphere. It's my go-to for breakfasts with friends. Spicy chile sauces. Always perfect skillets.

Good: friendly staff. Bad: food. I ordered an omelet and it had only meat inside, no cheese. Cheese was crusted on the outside. Super dry omelet. I got fruit and it was all melons. Gross. I asked for fruit with no melon, they brought out all grapes and one strawberry. Not worth the 25 min wait. read more

Jimmy's Cafe On Jefferson - Dry omelet - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I sent my runny eggs back twice. When I ordered I asked over medium and for the white to be cooked. It can back runny twice. When I was there a few weeks ago the same thing happened. I used to love this place. Needless to say I paid $30. For a breakfast I couldn't eat. They took a dollar off my meal. I won't be back read more

When you step into the interior of this place you'll see hundreds of celebrity pictures on the walls many of which are autographed. I should point out, they do offer daily lunch specials. We started off with a couple of coffees for breakfast and I was somewhat disappointed in the fact they use these creamer pods and they had no natural or tubinado sugar. The coffee was good, it just wasn't great and not up to the level of Starbucks, but for the price, you really can't complain. We both ordered the $14 pancake sampler which was truly a five star experience, with one exception. The pancakes come with artificial pancake syrup and they do not offer real maple syrup as an option. Butter is the other choice. I'd gladly pay a couple dollars for the maple syrup option, especially since the pancakes are made so well. With that said, the food, the service and the prices are the perfect restaurant trifecta which keeps people coming back. Definitely a place I'd come back to. Check out the informative photos below. read more

Jimmy's Cafe On Jefferson - Breakfast Chorizo Burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

What a great brunch spot! Would highly recommend! We were on a high from going on a hot air balloon earlier in the morning and we wanted something very filling to bring us back down to earth. Lol! Our hot air balloon pilot recommended Jimmy's and we couldn't be happier. We were a little concerned when we drove up because there was a long line out the door and we needed to head to the airport in a couple of hours. We let the host know and since there was only two of us, they were able to squeeze us in. We ordered the two eggs and Angus beef patty with green salsa and the Breakfast Combo. Our eggs were cooked perfectly and the bacon was crispy. My hamburger patty was tender and the green chile sauce was flavorful and had the perfect level of heat. The hashbrowns were good, but I would have preferred them fried a little longer to crisp them up. The pancakes are massive... they are the size of the entire plate!!! Service is fast and friendly and the food is great. It's your typical diner fare: you get a lot of food for the price! Needless to say we left with out bellies full and a big smile on our face. If I'm ever in the area again, I will definitely come back to try their other dishes, like their skillets. read more

Was beyond happy with Sunday breakfast at Jimmy's Cafe!! They were buzzing on Sunday morning :) The place looked full, but we were sat down quickly and our waitress was spot on. What I love about the service is they think ahead. They don't just serve 1 cup of coffee at a time, they serve your cup with a full pitcher. Additionally, you don't have to ask for condiments like jelly, as they are already set at the table. Don't be fooled by this cafe style restaurant. They are accustomed to the NM taste buds. Ordering a breakfast burrito, I was not disappointed with the fierce green chili! Lastly, the prices are competitive. Being a smaller adult, the small portions always satisfy my appetite. Must try. You'll thank me later read more

We've attempted going here midday and found it impossible to get in , get out quickly. Good sign, we thought. But had to try at another time. Today was the day. We got there just after the 7 am open. No wait. We each had basic breakfasts. My husband had Jimmy's, I had the two egg and added fruit. It came out FAST! Coffee was good, standard flavor. Breakfast was good, solid. Bacon was limp, however, we both like crispy. The fruit cup was excellent! Service was VERY quick, prompt. We wouldn't rush back, but it's worth a visit sometime in the future. The decor (Jimmie's) was fun. Challenging to get all the last names straight. read more

Great spot for breakfast every time I am in town. Service is always friendly and makes the effort to make you feel welcome. The breakfast burrito with sausage is spectacular. Their Green and Red Chili atop with melted cheese make this one of my favorite breakfast spots. I appreciate this place so much and should be praised for their breakfast burrito! Best in NM so far! read more
