The Jimmy is a neighborhood restaurant that takes its cue from the Mediterranean coasts of Italy and France, a region known for its casual, sunwashed elegance and unhurried pace.

(nice to meet you)

It is a celebration of an influential cuisine that is in turn influenced by many others, one that favors communal cooking, local ingredients, and straightforward preparations.

    Planned a last minute dinner with friends and the Jimmy was perfect! Great food and atmosphere for nice/casual dinner. Rigatoni was amazing.

    I ordered the PLT sandwich after having the waitress explain to me it was basically a pork sandwich kinda liked sliced pork but not pulled pork. When I received it, it looked liked a bacon sandwich, plus it was dripping with grease (and the house made seasoned chips were also dripping with grease). I called the waitress over and told her that it looked liked a bacon sandwich and she told me that it was Prosciutto, not bacon. I told her there is a Prosciutto sandwich on the menu but I ordered the Roast Heritage Pork (PLT sandwich) - then she told me it was the same thing. By that time I was so frustrated with the whole experience, I just wanted to leave ASAP. My friend had ordered the Chicken sandwich and the chips were also dripping with grease. Our table of 3 ALL Agreed we are never coming back.

    I'm happy to say that The Jimmy is CONSISTENTLY good. So many restaurants won't consistently perform on every visit, but The Jimmy has been very good or great each of the 6-7 times I've dined there. The menu is just big enough, the wine and beer selections are excellent, the food is very good - small plates, salads, pastas, entrees - all of it. I need to control myself next time so I have room to sample dessert and an espresso!

    One of our go to places in CLT. Normally we can’t say enough good things. Sadly, this time wasn’t the norm. The food was good but not great. We had an app, salad and a main course. All came within about 20 mins. One right after the other. Our salad wasn’t even finished before the main course arrived. We ordered a bottle of wine and had a single glass then packaged it up to take home. It seemed more like fast food than a nice well paced meal. If we return will for sure space out our meal by ordering differently. But that is a big IF.

    Booked reservation on line. Had to select either Bar or Standard seating. Arrived while hostess was rolling her eyes at other customers behind their back. Wow! Then they seated us at standard table. When I told them we reserved bar seating and that’s what we’d prefer,, they said it’s first come first served. They did end up seating us at a bar table. Great service after that, but pasta dish was very greasy and over spiced. Love spice, but this was overboard. Had large clumps of red chili pepper flakes in pasta/on shrimp. Pizza was syrupy sweet with honey. Too much honey. Love the service we had except for hostess, but food was very weak. Unusual as we’ve typically had great food here in the past.

    Our evening was wonderful! Everything about the restaurant—from the ambience to the cuisine and service—was fantastic! Three charming and affable hosts and hostesses welcomed the evening. They were sensitive to our wishes regarding seating arrangements because my wife has certain mobility impairments. Claire, our waitress, was attentive, informed about their food, and suggested an excellent wine! We most certainly plan to return!

    Ambiance is great. Service was a little slow. Food was honestly just real bland and just okay. For the price, it should either be great food or larger portions but in this case it was neither.

    Our first time there was awesome. Brunch eggs benedict with crab was phenomenal. Only suggestion would be to put the toast on the side since the delicious sauce had soaked through and made it soggy. My husband's shrimp & grits were divine! The homemade desserts were fabulous but quite pricey, so we opted to split one. We enjoyed every bite. Definitely recommend it and hope to return in the near future!

    Was excited to try this place, but had a crappy experience. The octopus appetizer was way overpriced—$25 for a single tentacle. Then the entrees came and the pasta was cold and undercooked. On top of this, the restaurant was so noisy it was hard to hear the person seated across the table from me speak. Very disappointed…

    We’d gone to Shain Gallery next door to see Andy Braitman’s new work and stopped by The Jimmy for a light dinner. We shared a salad and the Prosciutto pizza which was excellent. Christian our server recommended a good red wine. It was all just right!

    We had a fantastic experience with our first time at the Jimmy! We split the pasta with corn and crab meat, and then the Quatro Formaggi pizza. Both were absolutely amazing! Drinks were just okay, but definitely willing to try others. We will be back to try the other items on the menu we were excited about! And definitely recommend!!
