    I only had 13 dollars left to my name and I really wanted a sub after a rough workout, but the tax made it to where I couldn't afford the full sub but they took spare change from their tips to cover my sub damn I love this place, please eat here to support the good people that work here.

    Mr Jim's Special
    Dee A.

    Love the Mr Jim's Special!!! Thanks for lunch. Even over the years they've always had the best employees. They're super busy but make great sandwiches.

    So I've been going to Mr. Jim's for over 20 years. Today I picked up an order a cheesesteak fries and that's it. There were like 10 fries in the box and they charged me $0.89 for ketchup. When the hell did you start getting charged for ketchup. I cannot even believe it. How is that even something you can push a button for on the register. Catch up? So I guess if you get a hot dog you get charged for ketchup and mustard?

    Philly Steak and Cheese Deluxe
    Steve M.

    After a few hours of going down a rabbit hole on YouTube last night watching Philly Cheesesteak places... I had a craving to try one.. Looking around my neighborhood.. Me Jim's appeared at the top of the list and they have been serving good for over 50 years.. so let's try them out.. First appearance, the place was a small restaurant located on the corner of a strip mall.. there was some seating inside, and lots of seating outside for when the weather is nice.. Ordered the Cheesesteak Deluxe which had the onions and green peppers, and a regular fries.. apparently they have 2 types of fries, fresh cut or other.. went with the fresh cut and order came out to a little over $20 after tip.. Fries were good, large portion, and fresh.. they were soggy by the time I got home... The cheesesteak itself was blah.. there wasn't a lot of meat on the sandwich, and no flavor. All I could taste was the lettuce.... It was nothing compared to the subs I saw on YouTube.. Leaving it at 3 stars for now, will definitely give this place another chance just to ensure I did not catch them on an off day.

Not sure why they couldn't tell us this before the order. Anyway, no biggie. We ordered an app, mozz sticks and split the 4 cheeseburger sliders with fries. The mozz Sticks came out about 40 min later. They were so over cooked that all the cheese was completely blown out of them. We tried a few and it was nothing but bread. The waitress was nice enough to take them back and just remove them from our tab (it would be too long to wait for them again). Another 20 minutes and we received our order. The fries looked amazing!!! I was so disappointed to find out that looks can be deceiving. They had no flavor. I feel like maybe it was an oversight? I have read other reviews and others raved over them so, maybe the kitchen just forgot to season them. But they tasted like pure oil. But those burgers. Holy moly. Those burgers are were soooooo good! They don't make up for the others but I was glad not to leave there hungry. They gave us a coupon for our next time coming in. Told us not to open it and let our waitress, so they could tell us what our percentage off was. I opened it in the car bc I will not he back. It was 10% off in case others got this as well. Just a heads up

The waitress was very nice about accommodating our request. They put us at a way larger booth which was more comfortable! It was a little louder because it was in the bar area, but it wasn't a problem. The inside where the bar is has several large screen tvs. There were several staff members there, and they were friendly. The menu has a good amount of options to choose from. Ranging from burgers, fish, steaks, chicken, apps, pasta, desserts, and etc. We ordered the shotgun shrimp, big o's onion rings, a mango frozen drink, blues lemonade, coffee, fish and chips, side salads, steaks, and Mac n cheese with chicken pasta. The food came out in a decent time. The only problem was my chicken and bacon macaroni came out after everyone had finished eating. It took 40 minutes for some reason, and they forgot the bread that comes on the side. It also had very little chicken in it!! The fish and chips were good. You get 2 good sized tempura battered fish. They weren't seasoned really, but tasted good with the sauce. The onion rings were tasty! They were big and definitely shareable!! They use tempura batter on them also. The sauce is like a smoky bbq sauce that went well with them. My parents enjoyed their steak and sides, they said the potatoes were good. My sister enjoyed her meal also. The side salad was a good portion. I enjoyed the shotgun shrimp. They were supposed to put the sauce on the side, so we sent them back and they corrected it with no problem. Our waitress Kaylee was very attentive, friendly, and upbeat! She made the visit enjoyable. I did appreciate that mostly everything was good! I wish I had gotten my bread and my Mac pasta was seasoned with more chicken. But I didn't check that until I got home since it was boxed up before we left. The front house manager Michael introduced himself and was very friendly as well. It was our first time there and he gave us a warm welcome. I'd definitely return to eat here again! Check them out!!

It's in the same group of buildings such as Michael's (around the corner). My visit here was on October 27, 2025. The outside view of the business is simple, but effective. They have a specials chalkboard next to the entrance. Parking wasn't an issue on this visit, but I'm sure it can fill up at busier times. My mom and I were both in the area as she wanted to go to the Michael's store here. When we came inside, it wasn't busy, as it was around 3:30 pm when we got here. We were greeted by the one who would be our server for this visit. He gave us menus to look at and asked us for our drink orders. I generally stick with water with lemon, which I did here. We were there during the time where it was still the lunch menu (though for us, it was more like dinner for us that day). When he came back with the drinks, he asked if we were ready to order, but we weren't just yet. He also asked if we had any questions about the menu and options and gave us more time to mull over the menu. When he came back, we weren't completely ready, but asked a question about the specials of the day. After that, we knew what we would get and placed our food order. My mom ordered the Meatloaf Lunch Special with mashed potatoes and spinach. I went with the Meatball Sub Lunch Special with mashed potatoes, though I don't normally do potatoes that often. After about ten minutes or so, the food came to the table. The food looked really good, and it was hot too. The bread for the Meatball Sub was very soft and easy to eat. The meatballs were huge and made for a worthy meal. The mashed potatoes with gravy was really good and fulfilling too. My mom loved the meatloaf, and their meatloaf doesn't have ketchup on it like some other places do. She loved the meatloaf, spinach, and mashed potatoes too. After we were done, he asked if we wanted any desserts. We both declined as I normally don't do them anymore. Overall, we both had an excellent experience here. The food and service were on point. The food I had that day did spike my blood sugars, but I expected that with bread and mashed potatoes. I don't make a habit of that though. They are a great local business. There are lots of food options to choose from. If you are looking for a place to eat while in this part of Chesapeake, this place is worth coming to.

The bathrooms are small but clean. I liked being able to see into the kitchen as well. Our server, Ariana, was an absolute gem. She promptly took our drink orders and our appetizer request. We got the combo appetizer which had boneless wings, twirly mozzarella sticks and fried pickles. HIGHLY recommend. Although it did take a little longer to get it, everything was hot and cooked perfectly. Ariana did explain how everything is cooked fresh so we expected to have a bit of a wait. For our entrees, I ordered the Monte Cristo with fries and my boyfriend had the sunshine burger with loaded tater tots. These took a lot longer to come out. We watched several people come, eat and leave before we got our food. Ariana kept us updated and was very apologetic. The Monte Cristo was the perfect balance between sweet and savory. The burger was full of flavor and huge. The loaded tots, unfortunately, they did not come out that way. Our server tried to get the kitchen to make a fresh batch, but to be honest, we were just tired and ready to go at this point. We are very empathetic when it comes to a busy restaurant. Ariana was doing everything she could to try and get our food on time and kept checking with the kitchen. I'm honestly surprised that the supervisor did not come over to check in. Our bill even had a charge for the games on the kiosk, which we did not play. However, we were just ready to go home at that point. The food was delicious. Our service from our server could not have been better. Disappointed with the management , I feel they should have been more helpful to the staff and to the customers. Especially since the order was not completed fully and we opted to leave without the requested loaded side. The prices are great and the portions are generous . I would love to try more of the menu! We I'll probably go back, maybe just at a different location or not around dinner time. It was a pleasant experience. If it were not for our server, my review would be a bit more critical.
