We have hear about Jimmy's for years and finally made it in to try. The store itself is great with huge variety of specialties at honestly good prices. But we are here for a sandwich! You Make your way to the counter where the gentleman takes your order and gives you a number. We went with the Prosciutto and Hot Italian Sausage. The Prosciutto sandwich was super tasty with fresh ingredients and top tier bread. The Hot Italian Sausage was over to top and delicious. Great sausage and amazing bread with just the right amount of spice overall. The sauce they use could be a meal by itself. Super great sandwich! The whole experience was fun and we would definitely come back. Highly Reccommended! read more

Jimmy's Food Store - Prosciutto Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This place is awesome. Opened back in 1966, it's been a Dallas staple for decades, and you can feel that history the second you walk in. It truly feels like you've stepped into a legit Italian market. It's packed--in a good way--but be prepared to rub elbows while you shop. If you don't have social anxiety, it's all part of the experience. We met another couple there for sandwiches, and they absolutely delivered. I had the Italian beef, which was delicious--but definitely spicy. I even asked for light peppers and it still brought some heat. So fair warning: if you're sensitive to spice, you might want to pivot to something else. My wife has been missing New Orleans, so she went with the muffaletta. Let's just say it was a much cheaper solution than flying her to the Big Easy. No gumbo on the menu, but the sandwich hit the spot. After we ate, we did a little shopping and grabbed some fresh Italian ingredients imported straight from Italy--which is always a win in my book. Great food, great vibe, and a true Dallas institution. We'll definitely be back. read more

Pro-tip: Visit while you're hungry, there's so much to explore and choose from! Sure, it's not a New York or Chicago sub, but the Italian Stallion (Mortadella, Capicola, Sopressata, Pepperoni, Provolone, Porketta, Coppa, Mozzarella, Prosciutto) is pretty solid, especially for a Dallas sub shop (or Texas sub shop, for the matter of Subs). While the bread is local, it's a tasty and hearty baguette, holding all the glorious fixings tightly compact. The only thing that threw me off was the mustard, and mozzarella. Highly suggest they opt in to use fresh mozz instead of sliced deli mozz. Traditional also tends to go with oil and vinegar, not mustard. Another plus? Black and white cookies from Jersey!

Saw this place on TikTok and as a Chicago Native, I definitely had to try this place to taste their Italian beef. First, this place is great for getting all of your dinner needs. Fresh groceries, sauces, even frozen Italian dinners. Did I mention an incredible wine selection? I ordered the Italian beef to go and it was even better than Portillos ( the ones in Chicago, not here in tx). Definitely recommend this place! read more

This place is right across from our gym and only four minutes from the house, so we finally stopped in--and wow, it felt like stepping into old-school Italy. I swear I needed a leather jacket and a tracksuit to match the vibe. The place was packed, lines everywhere, and not a single person looked annoyed. Every aisle was stacked with straight-up Italian gold. The produce section alone had me hooked. Fresh vegetables, and the tomatoes actually smelled like tomatoes. Everything felt like it came straight from someone's backyard garden. They make their own pasta and their own sauce too. I grabbed a jar, cooked some spaghetti at home, and let me tell you... all I did was boil noodles and heat up the sauce, but it tasted like I had a chef hidden in my kitchen. Best sauce-and-spaghetti combo I've ever had. Jimmy's came through big time. Prices were fair and reasonable. We picked up deli meat, wine, champagne--and yeah, the gentleman handing out free mimosa samples totally won us over. Respect. If you've never been here, you absolutely need to stop by. This place is an experience. read more

Jimmy's Food Store - hot italian sausage sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Dallas, Texas

If you love Italy, you will love this store. Great sandwiches (we had the Hit Sausage and Cuban--both wonderful), and wine while you shop ($4, $5 and $6 for white, Pinot and Super Tuscan--we had the latter, and it brought us straight back to our trip to Tuscany). Frozen entrees, sauces, olive oil, pizza supplies, desserts, fresh veggies, Expresso, etc. Tony was a big help with selecting wine. Cannot wait to return. read more

Jimmy's is now a Saturday morning routine for us. We try to get there just after they open at nine, and the store is magical: it's filled with everything you could possibly want for Italian cooking. Some highlights: They have a garden that they harvest herbs from, and there is always fresh basil. Most of the time there are three or four other herbs there that are fresh, which makes it one step removed from having your own herb garden. They have two different kinds of guanciale: a domestic from Neiman ranch, and an imported. The imported is amazing. Their bread selection is incredible. I've enjoyed their Italian bread, three times, but today picked up two loaves of baguette, and I can't speak highly enough for the quality of the bread. read more

You've got to give this place a try! The Italian packaged ingredient selection is amazing. But, we came for the sandwiches! We each ordered the Italian beef (mild), the Italian stallion, and the Cuban. They were all 10 out of 10. The only thing I would comment negatively on is the attitude of some of the employees. The place was packed and there was just one elderly lady that kept telling us to get out of the way. She could've been a heck of a lot nicer about it considering how busy the place was and the available standing room only space. But overall 10, out of 10. Great prices, authentic old world market, and amazing quality. read more

Love this store/restaurant. They have everything you need when it's comes to Italian anything? Fresh meat, all sandwiches are awesome. Only probably from Chicago and I like my Italian beef sandwich wet, not dry. They don't know nothing about that here in Texas. Overall it's still my go too for anything. Customer services is excellent. Oh and they have pretty much any wine you can name. They even have good recommendations if you're wondering what goes well with a particular food. Just ask. read more

I finally made the pilgrimage to Jimmy's Italian store this weekend after hearing about it for what feels like a century. Honestly, I don't know what took me so long--probably sheer laziness, which I now deeply regret. The second you walk in, it feels like you've been teleported straight into an old-school East Coast Italian market. You half expect to see someone named Tony in the corner yelling about "the gravy" while slicing prosciutto. The shelves are packed with everything you could possibly want: pizza dough, Italian sausage, pepperoni, and about 400 things I didn't even know I needed until I saw them. And then there's the wine. Oh, the wine. Let's just say I went in for pizza ingredients and left feeling like I needed to call a ride home. Their vino selection is nothing short of incredible. You can also buy a glass of wine to sip as you walk around and shop. Bellissimo!!!! Of course, we couldn't leave without trying the sandwiches--and I'm glad we didn't. I went for the Italian meat sandwich, my wife had the turkey, and my son went all-in with the Cuban. Every single one was loaded, flavorful, and downright delicious. If you walk out of Jimmy's without grabbing a sandwich, you're doing it wrong. The real magic, though, happened when I got home. I fired up my Ooni pizza oven with the fresh ingredients from Jimmy's, and I kid you not--it was the best pizza I've ever made. Crispy crust, gooey cheese, spicy sausage, and just enough wine-fueled confidence to convince myself I might've been Italian in a past life. If you're in Dallas and craving a little slice of Italian heaven, Jimmy's is absolutely worth the trip. Just don't be surprised if you walk out with three bottles of Chianti, a bag full of pizza dough, and a sudden urge to start saying "mangia" at family dinners. Pro tip: Don't go hungry, or you'll end up buying half the store!! read more

Been many times and reviewed before Two recommendations to ownership: 1) Every time I'm there, an employee is using the Men's restroom so long I have to go into the Women's restroom. Please either add an employee only restroom or make them both Unisex - a simple sign change would do it. 2) There are so many people standing in the aisles to get sandwiches or other orders at the deli counter, that I just want to get out of there and I miss most of the items I want or need. Please have people wait in the tasting room in the back, cut out a pass-through window, have a "non-cash only" register, and let people walk out a door from there. They could even pay for a small number of items to alleviate traffic up front. Set up a coffee station back there and people will stay long enough to buy some. Right now it's so chaotic - even during "slow" hours. That's all. It's a great shop and I love visiting the store and seeing the old neighborhood revitalized. read more

So in Dallas we have an old school Italian grocery store that dates back to the early '50s that makes me feel like I'm back in Little Italy.... Which is rare in the state of Texas. Jimmy's has all the hard to find Italian products and authentic sausages that takes me back to my grandparents day. I drive here from Houston just to pick up the sausages so I could cook it for the family for the holidays. And of course I pick up the other items that I don't find readily in Houston. They also have great sandwiches espresso which completes the experience. For me, definitely worth the drive and it's always fun visiting Dallas again. read more

I FINALLY stopped by Jimmy's today after saying I'm going to do so for at least 15years and boy am I kicking myself. I loved this place!! Reminds me of a neighborhood store I'd see when visiting my Uncle in Chicago. We need more places like this here. Given it's in Dallas, I was grateful to have street parking right infront of the store. I went around 1pm on a Tuesday. I imagine it would be harder to find spot on weekend or after the Cafe nextdoor opens at 5pm. The place is crowded and packed full of so many great things! A small fresh produce section. A freezer section with balls pizza dough ($1.27-2.75ea), precooked dough, ice cream, meatballs, lasagnas, pizzas, several types of ravioli, & other specialty items. A refrigerated section with beverages, cheeses, pastas ($6.99ea), sauces & other specialty items. They have a large wine section. You can even purchase wine to sip while you shop at the front register. There is a butcher & deli counter with all kinds of goods. The rest of the store is packed with other reasonably priced staple & specialty items. They offer sandwiches & salads that you can order at the deli counter in the back. You pay for everything up front. It took about 12mins to get our sandwiches. You can also call in orders ahead for pickup. We ate: 6" MUFFULETTA (6" $10.99 or 9" $19.99) Mortadella, Ham, Provolone, Genoa Salami, Olive Salad on this deliciously slightly buttery bread. I could only eat half. Loved the flavors and appreciated the meat to bread ratio!! MEATBALL SUB - ($9.99) Excellent Toasted 6″ Bun with Marinara, Mozzarella, Sweet Peppers and Onion. Meatballs were AMAZING. We will be bringing some home next time! I highly recommend you check this place out. It's crowded (I wouldn't bring smaller kids for this reason - at least during busy times). If you lean towards claustrophobia in smaller crowded places, just take some deep breaths and focus on all the great things in there. Everyone was very polite navigating around each other. There is no place to eat there. read more

Yesterday I stopped by Jimmy's to grab some lunch, it was my first time going here despite living in Dallas for so long! I ordered the Italian beef and a cannoli and I want to say it took around 15 minutes to come out! The Italian beef sandwich was great, I enjoyed the giardiniera. The cannoli was delicious, I will try the chocolate one the next time I visit. It seems like when I got there most of the people standing around were waiting for their order so it can get a little confusing seeing who was in line or not for someone who has not been here before. They seem to have nailed the efficiency in getting orders so chances are the people waiting around have already gotten their orders taken. This place is also a little grocery store and there was a mix of people actually grocery shopping and grabbing a quick lunch when I was there. You place your order in the back of the store where the deli is or you can call ahead and order for pick up. There is some parking around the store itself and I had no problem getting a parking spot right outside of the store. There are constantly people going in and out so I imagine you wouldn't have to wait too long to find a spot. Overall, I am glad I finally got to visit Jimmy's. I will definitely be back to try their other sandwiches and to get fresh ingredients for cooking. read more

I had a great experience getting food from Jimmy's. I got the calabrese panino which was fantastic and much bigger than expected. It was flavored well and the bread was nicely toasted making it exactly what I hoped for. Despite multiple people being there, the sandwich was prepared quickly and I enjoyed walking around the store while waiting. I also got a cannoli which was delicious. It wasn't too sweet or rich making it a very enjoyable dessert. Overall, I had a fantastic experience here and would definitely return for another sandwich. I'm also eager to try their selection of meats, cheeses, and wines. read more

Awesome Italian food store located in the Old East part of Dallas. Gives a true Italian vibe from the second you walk in. The service is always great and the staff is always friendly. They do get busy depending on when you go, so sometimes service isn't as good as other times, but it's only because of how busy they get. This place also serves as an Italian grocery store that has plenty of options to pick from, including their wine selection. I usually come here for the meatball sub, which is great, but you can't go wrong when picking from their menu. Overall, this place is a must try for anyone in the Dallas area, especially if you live nearby! read more

We ordered two sandwiches from the counter and discovered later when we arrived at our destination that they had left out the Procuitto out of one of the sandwiches! All we had was cheese!! And their sandwiches are not cheap! The rest of the Italian store was full of Italian items. We purchased several items and our total was $95.00. Too bad about the sandwiches. read more

I've had this place bookmarked for what feels like forever. The legend of their broccoli rabe and pork sausage drew me in, but let's not forget the hype about their Italian sandwiches. As a certified sandwich enthusiast, I had to check it out. So, off we went on a Sunday afternoon--which, in hindsight, wasn't my brightest idea. The place was packed. That said, the service at the deli counter was like an Olympic relay team. Lightning fast. I ordered the Philly Roast Pork Sandwich with broccoli rabe and red peppers (dipped in au jus, of course), and let me tell you--WOW. This was a sandwich that could convert even the staunchest carb-hater. A truly spiritual experience. AND TO GO only - so get ready to devour the sandwiches in your car with a bib! Hubbs went for the muffuletta, which could easily feed a small family. And because I couldn't resist, I snagged the last lonely broccoli rabe and pork sausage to cook at home later. Grilled it up a few days after, and yep, it was every bit as incredible as I hoped. The shop also has a treasure trove of authentic Italian specialties--condiments, desserts, and even pignoli cookies. If you love Italian food or just great sandwiches, this is the spot. Pro tip: go on a weekday, unless you enjoy a crowd! read more

Location Northeast Dallas-North of Baylor Medical center-off North Fitzhugh and Bryan. Parking Street-tight-I parked down half a block Atmosphere Think Chicago or NY deli or Italian/Greek market.

Holy cow! Am I in the upper west side of Manhattan @ Zabar's? Well, Jimmy's is the Italian version in East Dallas. I wish we had a Jimmy's where I live in lower Uptown. Jimmy's gets amazing produce from local growers and their meat and cheese deli is TDF. The staff in every area of the store is full of pride and just off the chart with their level of service. I spoke with a couple of the gentleman in the meat section - their service at the store was between 38 and 42 years. Now THAT is dedication and a reason that Jimmy's has been in business for so long. Treat your people well and with respect, and they will do the same. Stop shopping at Whole Foods and support this local business. read more

Best bite I had during my week in Dallas. Jimmy's is a cute little grocery store with plenty of parking and tasty sandwiches. Everyone there was super friendly and accommodating. The guy that took my sandwich order recommended the Italian Beef, the Cuban, and the Meatball sandwiches for first-timers. I ended up with the Italian Beef. 6-inch toasted roll, plenty of tender sliced beef, provolone, giardiniera, and dipped just enough in their jus/gravy. It's a simple, but delicious meal at just over $10 after tax. That's a steal and a whole lot better than the beef at Portillo's in Chicago. If I ever find myself in East Dallas again, this quaint little Italian store is the first stop I'll be making. read more

It was ready shortly after my arrival and glad I called in because there was definitely an additional wait had I not.

Best beef sandwich Ive had. Equal to Jay's in Chicago. The gravy aka juices combines with the provolone and perfect Italian roll. The giardiniera was a little too spicy for my taste but it enhanced the sandwich. I also tried their basic Italian and it was also delicious. I ordered delivery using Favor which was smooth. But that meant I wasn't able to experience the market. This Italian deli lives up to the hype. read more

Jimmy's used to be our neighborhood grocery store when I was a kid. The owner was kind and my mom says he sold the BEST tripe for menudo. As the area changed, so did Jimmy's. I'm so glad it did. I feel like a kid again when I walk through the door. Total nostalgia except now I get a little wine and a filling sandwich. The sandwiches are excellent, I mean EXCELLENT. But for me, the nostalgia just makes it all so much better. 40 years worth... Anyway, my go to is the roast pork with Giardiniera, the roast beef, muffuletta, meatball, and Cuban (not the spicy, too spicy). I really want to try the rest, but these are so good! read more
