About

This restaurant offers you nice food and a place to rest after a long walk around LJVM Coliseum. The menu of Greek cuisine under the direction of the talented chef is wonderful at this place. The truth is that you will really enjoy perfectly cooked chef salads, chicken and chicken gyro. Most guests recommend trying good pancakes, waffles and biscuits. You will hardly forget great coffee that you can find. Jimmy the Greek Coliseum is well known for its great service and friendly staff, that is always ready to help you. Reasonable prices are to be expected at this place. When you enter this place, you notice the cozy atmosphere. But people rate this spot below average on Google.

I arrived around 8:50am. There were about 8 tables with people. I was promptly greeted by a friendly cashier who told me I could sit wherever. I chose a booth. When I sat down, I smelled something that smelled so good but I have no idea what it was. My waitress came over at 8:54am and took drink order. I got a water with lemon, which came in a plastic cup. The waitress didn’t introduce herself, which is sadly a normal occurrence when I’ve dine in at restaurants lately. Each table had menus on it. They weren’t the cleanest. After reviewing the menu, and asking for advice, I ordered at 9am. I got the house special, which the waitress said was the most popular. I got 3 scrambled eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, toast, and a pancake. The pancake comes regular but I added strawberry on top. (Note: The blueberries are NOT fresh. They are pie filling. The strawberries are fresh). My food came at 9:08am. The food was beautifully plated! The bacon was a little chewy; kinda seemed like it wasn’t fresh. I added pepper and salt to my eggs but it wasn’t bad alone. I liked the toast as it was buttery. I enjoyed the pancakes but I wish they were a little softer. I ended up getting full. I didn’t finish my pancakes or the toast lol. Per my receipt, Vicki was my waitress. The service was good. I got my food pretty quickly too. I must add that you DEFINITELY get your moneys worth! I got all the food I did for only $8.50, which is awesome! I definitely plan on returning and I recommend you do too! Service Dine in Meal type Breakfast Price per person $1–10

I had Shrimp & Grits and it was very tasty! I was surprised when the waitress said “ these are not your normal S&G … do you eat pork? “ I said yes and she placed my order. The salty-ness of the ham and bacon 🥓 flavored the grits pretty well. I liked the texture of the grits after a few bites. The shrimps were a great size and were cooked to perfection. Overall the dish was delicious and I would order again but i’d ask for less salt if possible. Good experience with the service, comfortable and home town feeling.

The reviews seem to be not there great. My husband and I love Gyros and they had amazing gyros with a side Greek salad. The Greek dressing was tasty. The Tzatziki was on point with the flavor. My little one wanted chicken tenders and these as well were better than most other restaurants. I would have enjoyed these myself.

The waitress sarah was awesome. The food there is awesome. It was my first time there. The amount of food on my plate was surprising. I ordered the shrimp and flounder meal. Amazing!! 😌😌 I really really enjoyed everything about this place. I will definitely be coming back.

They have poor customer service. They don't care how they serve your food. If it's incorrect, wrong order and/or burnt. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger all the way on Doordash and what I got was bacon, cheese, the burger, coleslaw and chili. yuck and the burger was burnt. Also they closed at 3pm, it was 2:50 when the food was delivered. I immediately called and they wouldn't answer. I left a message on voicemail. I bet they aren't going to call back in the morning. DoorDash states they will notify the restaurant but who knows if they really do. This isn't the first time this has happened. Restaurants get over with you using a 3rd party delivery service. Just sad!!! Service Delivery Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 1 Service: 1

The Jimmy the Greek Experience (Call In - Pick-Up Edition). On this day I wanted a greek salad. Jimmy the Greek was not far, so I called in and placed an order for their Greek Plater that comes with Gyro and chicken souvlaki on a bed of rice with a Greek salad and a choice of a side. I ordered a salad instead of rice and asked for a double salad. The individual I spoke with was pleasant, and I did not feel rushed while placing my order, and they provided a 10 to 15-minute pick-up time. Once I arrived, my food was ready, but I guess I walked into something because I heard the individuals at the counter talking about "How they were not going to be checking people's boxes." After paying, I checked my food before leaving. Staff had already let the cat out of the bag by saying what they were not going to do. I glanced, but once home and ready to eat, I noticed I had NO FETA CHEESE on my greek salad! How is this a greek salad without feta?? They seasoned the chicken so well, but the Gyro meat was on the thin side but still tasty. The salad was just a salad to me. Not greek without feta cheese. The tzatziki sauce was good, not too runny or too thick. The pita bread was nice and warm. Overall this would have been a bomb plate if I had feta cheese on my salad! So would I return Jimmy the Greek? I would return because they have a large selection of food items. If in a large party, everyone can eat from their menu. Nevertheless, next time I order a greek salad, I will be asking if feta comes on it. Although the customer service was good on the telephone, the same energy is necessary on the floor. This establishment is not that big, and ears are not that far apart to talk about customers, anything personal, or anything disparaging.

Terrible service. You walk in and they just ignore you. You have to like "bother" them to get their attention. Terrible to pick up online orders. Certainly won't ever eat here either
