    Jalapeno Poppers
    April T.

    If you're in the mood for a classic American diner experience and happen to be in Brighton, Jim's Deli is perfect for you. The small plates they have are 10.95 and will definitely fill you up. We got the brisket with Mac and mashed potatoes and the meat loaf with vegetables and mashed potatoes. Both were delicious. The stand out for me personally was the jalapeño poppers. Normally, they're too oily and greasy for me but Jim's were crunchy without being oily. A must try!

    It got busier a few mins later. This was on a Friday morning around 9:30am

    I went on a Friday morning at 9:15am. Found a parking spot in front. You could smell the food from outside. Inside it reminds me of the school cafeteria but with delicious food. It was way busier than the photo I took just a few minutes later! Very diverse. People ordered a lot of different meals and they all looked delicious. You go in, grab a tray and silverware, they cook and pass you your food, you go to the end of the line where they have drinks to pick from, then you pay, then sit down. You leave your tray at the table. Great experience overall. The food was so good we will definitely be going back!

    Jim's Breakfast Burrito
    Chris M.

    If you are looking for a dive on a Sunday morning you have found it. Your basic deli with a grill. Upon entering I took a tray and wondered if the tray had ever been washed. The tray felt greasy. I had the Jim's am burrito. I was not sure what I was going to get. It had this peculiar taste which I think was from the salsa. I would have to have it without to be certain. The choice on the burrito was ham, bacon, or sausage. I went with the ham because I thought it was the safest. The prices were reasonable which they should be. I can't imagine they spend any money on anything but payroll. There was no service to speak of since orders were placed at the counter. I was not impressed by the place. Stay away.

    Rueben

    Best Reuben I've ever had. Thick slices of corn beef the perfect amount of thousand Island and sauerkraut. So glad I found this place!

    Rachael Wrap, Jim's Style, French Toast Breakfast
    Judie K.

    A true gem in brighton! Great service and great place to pick up some good food for a reasonable price. Love the Rachael wrap and the Jim's style hot dog -- the flavors tied in so well and love the amount of bacon and meat in each. For the hot dog, I love how the bun held up well while carrying so much inside and that it doesn't break apart. I definitely want to come back to try some more of their options. But I was not a huge fan of their French toast -- I would not come back for this again, but would be open to see if their other breakfast options are tastier.

    "Scrambled" egg

    Hash was great but eggs are the number one component of breakfast and I don't know how you get it this wrong. Scrambled should be the easiest to execute.

    Sweet Potato
    Elizabeth K.

    Love this place - great staffs, nice food Sweet potato fries: crispy outside with juicy savory taste of sweet potato inside. The best sweet potato you can ever have in MA Cheese and steak sub: Alot of veggies and protein with right amount of cheese inside. The sauce tied up so well with the rest of the ingredients. Would've been amazing if the bread was toasted but can't complain because I really love the kind service and cheerful environment:)

    Inside seating
    Chris D.

    Filling and delicious at the same time!!! Came here for breakfast and wow. It's not just simple eggs, bacon, toast and hash browns. There are many entree selections from which to choose along with a bunch of specials, and that's just breakfast! Some selections are unique (all sound good) and some are typical breakfast fare. We had little bit of both, classic and unique. ALL of it was good, generous portions and high quality ingredients. Even the coffee was very good. One nice touch is the freshly baked giant muffins in the cast iron pan - if you order it they take it right out of the pan, slice, butter and put it on the grill for a few minutes. Slightly crispy exterior and tender crumb with blueberries -big yum. It's cafeteria style so as soon as you walk in grab a tray, your utensils and get in line. The menu is extensive and it's all posted on the boards above the counter/line. Suggest looking up the menu online beforehand and then when at the restaurant read the specials so you can place your order quickly vs holding up the line. The last thing you want to do is hold up the line of uncaffeinated, hungry patrons. The guys behind the counter are friendly, funny, interactive and yet they really hustle back there to keep the line moving, including Jim himself. This isn't a large restaurant so the seating is limited. Get there early!

    Lot of food for a great price! It's a staple of Brighton, and their breakfast sandwiches and eggs Benedict are A+
