    Eggs, bacon and hashbrowns
    Kathleen C.

    Very crowded diner with extremely friendly staff! Food was served fast and was delicious. We will return but call ahead for a table.

    This is now my go to place for breakfast in the Quad cities. I truly enjoy every bite of their biscuits and gravy. They are delicious and a must from their menu. However, their menu does prevent a challenge because they're so many other delicious items to pick from. Our server was fantastic and very attentive. Jimmy's pancake House is definitely one of the best!

    Jimmy's Pancake House does everything right! This will be long because there is a lot to cover. Got on the waitlist through Yelp on the way. They were busy, but I appreciate that they did not seat people because their kitchen was backed up, not because there were no tables open. When there were more people than seats for waiting, they offered to text guests so they could wait in their car. We were seated in a booth. I ordered the two eggs, hash browns, and ham. You could also choose toast or a pancake. I asked to upgrade to the current special, carrot cake pancakes. My husband got the steak and eggs breakfast. All of our food was very good. The pancakes were delicious. Took most of our pancakes to go since it was too much food. The other component of a phenomenal establishment is service. Service was excellent. We were impressed as we watched every server help other servers with tables that were not theirs. Other servers would walk by and refill our drinks when they noticed. A larger table left a very messy table and floor. The busser started cleaning and two servers went over and assisted. They communicated well with guests and other staff. When I asked for the hash browns crispy, the server explained that she would request it, but because they make a large amount at once they may not be very crispy. I appreciated that. I would've really appreciated it as I ordered, but I understand a busy kitchen. When servers did something for another table, they let that table's server know. For instance, one server said, "Whoever has table 3, I gave them boxes." This let's the server for that table know what was done and that the table was probably close to leaving. We were impressed by the efficiency, friendliness, and competency of all staff. I commend the owners/management/staff. There are many places that could learn from you.

    Such an amazing place to enjoy breakfast!! the best thing to have is the country fried steak!

    White chocolate Raspberry Pancakes (short stack = two)

    Jimmy's Pancake House is a staple to Bettendorf. It's the cozy, homey diner type stop where you will find the true locals. I came with a friend to catch up while I was back in town. I was excited to find white chocolate raspberry pancakes on the menu. I'd never seen this flavor for pancakes and it was not a mistake. The raspberry syrup makes for a strong raspberry flavor and the white chips add a perfect extra sweetness to pair with the tart raspberry. I was also definitely eyeing the breakfast wrap but went for sweet instead of savory. Next time I'm at Jimmy's, that'll be what I try. Service was great.

We ordered the house salad, which is tossed in buttermilk ranch dressing and it's super delicious. Such a great salad to start with before the pizzas. It's large enough for 3 people to share, as there were 2 of us and we had some left over to take home. Brian Olsen has pizza on lock! He is a master at his craft. These pizzas have an amazing flavor, terrific crust and quality ingredients. They serve burgers and a chicken sandwiche, too! We ordered 3 different pizzas... one with garlic cream sauce and green peppers, one with pepperoni, sausage & red peppers and another specialty pizza with the hot honey & arugula with pepperoni and Calabrian chili's. Man, that was some good Za!! Claire was our server and she was terrific, too! Clearing dirty plates, refreshing silverware and beverages. Terrific attitude! All in all, Bettendorf has an amazing pizza restaurant that the locals should be grateful for in their own neighborhood! And, Smash serves beer, wine, and cocktails, too. I wish I lived closer. I'd become a regular and dine in often! Whenever I'm back in town, I'll be sure to stop by to try some different specialty pies, like the elote pie. That one sounded really good! So did the za with wild mushroom & kale!! Maybe one day Smash will create a taco pizza to compete with Happy Joe's, rip Joe Whitey. But, seriously, there is no comparison between the two. Smash is hands down one of the best pizza restaurants in the QC's and is better that many BIG city pizza spots. Thanks for the good time, great food & service!!

It looks like a typical sports bar/restaurant. What sets it apart is the quality of the food. With our most recent visit, we went at an off-peak time between lunch and dinner. The place was relatively empty. Service was timely. For an appetizer, we had fried pickles. These looked like they were cut, battered, and fried in-house and were good. For my entree, I had the Zombie Invasion Burger. They advertise it as possibly the best burger on the planet. I don't know if I would endorse it being the best on the planet, but it's definitely one of the better burgers I have had. It's a gourmet-type burger, pairing sweet with some zing. The fries were standouts as well. They weren't particularly fancy, but they were well seasoned (just salt and pepper) and based on the quality, I am guessing they were cut in-house and fried to order. My wife had a Mediterranean salad, which she liked. I did not try any of it, but I have had a salad there before (Plantation Salad) and thought it was pretty darned good. For dessert, I had the cheesecake. This was good. It wasn't necessarily great, but I left happy. Overall, the food here is really good and the prices are appropriate.

    Do not go. Waste of money. Group of 6 and all of us were disappointed. Never will returnread more

When he came back, I ordered my lunch, and the burger I got was of the same caliber as those at Culver's but for double the price. Small, thin patties, cooked to order as long as it's medium or well done. My drink finally arrived after I'd finished my meal, but it made for a nice dessert. I was given the drink at half price for the inconvenience, which I appreciated. I'll be back only to try their lobster mac, but their burgers are sad and way overpriced.
