We even asked them if they could make the bacon well done this time due to getting undercooked food from here in the past. What we received was 2 burritos with completely raw bacon. See the pictures, we were pulling out endless strands of this stuff. They could seriously kill somebody with this. Children, elderly people, and even pregnant women eat here, so this is completely unacceptable. Not only was the food raw, but we paid an arm and a leg for breakfast here. Never going back

It was especially unfortunate because my dad had been looking forward to trying Mediterranean food for the first time. After already having a long and difficult day at work, it honestly hurt to see him treated that way. At least the food was good, but it's hard to want to support a business that doesn't seem to appreciate the customers who are choosing to spend their money there. Good food can only go so far when the customer service leaves you feeling disrespected and unwelcome.

While I grew up loving their food, their exorbitant prices are simply outrageous.

Jim's is the only Burger Joint to charge this much for a slice of cheese!!!! Did the milk come from a cow made of Gold?

I had no expectations for this place, just walked in because Starbucks was closed and it was like a 50's themed diner/antique shop inside. The place was clean and fully staffed and there was a drive-thru. I ordered their sausage and egg breakfast sandwich on sour dough and needed the code to the restroom or the key and was on my way. Later in the day I got hungry and opened up the sandwich and it was perfect. It tasted like a good home made breakfast sandwich and looked amazing and tasted fresh. I got a photo of the cross section of the sandwich and it was immaculate. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a very good burger or meal on the go that's not a chain and it's actually better than a chain. Also, the restroom was clean with no weird smells so I recommend their restroom too if you're on the go. My order was ready by the time I came out of the restroom so they are also really quick. Honestly was surprised by this visit and would come back again.

Another 10min passed by, now I'm seeeing people who came after me get their orders before me. Asked the staff again for my order status. The order pick up window person shouted my name to the kitchen each time I checked in. Finally the 3rd time they responded, they start arguing, apparently my order was done a long time ago, and it was given to someone else. It took 30min to figure out that my order had already been done and given to someone else because there was no communication between the kitchen, order staff or pick up staff. no apology, just got my food after the argument 3minutes later...Food was average, definitely not worth a 30min wait.

As soon as we walked in, there was no greeting. We stood there looking around trying to figure out where to sit until a waitress eventually told us, "Sit wherever." She took our drink order while we were still looking at the menu, but it took about 10-15 minutes just to get our waters. After that, it was another 15 minutes before our food order was taken, and about 30 more minutes before the food arrived. I only saw two employees working, and they would disappear for long periods of time. It seemed like one waitress was doing most of the work by bringing out food while the other spent a lot of time chatting and laughing with customers at the bar. Maybe they need to schedule more staff because the service was very slow. The food was just okay. The fried pickles and fries were really good, and no one in my family had any complaints about the bone-in wings. However, the boneless wings were hard and overcooked on the outside. For pricing, the 6-piece wings with fries are $12.59. The 12-piece wings are $19.19, but they don't include fries, which cost an additional $5.99. The stuffed potatoes and fried pickles were $9.25. Overall, the food was decent enough, but the customer service needs major improvement. With better staffing and more attentive service, this place could provide a much better experience.
