The Jimmy - Charlotte

Small portion, decent food, expensive for average dishes, pretty nice interior, overall just ok.

Excellent, bright dining for lunch, Excellent Wait staff, Hadley, recognized me from dining there a few days before actually called me by name! Was asked by other waiters if we needed anything. Food taste delightful!

I am not sure if it was just an off night but I was overall disappointed by my dining experience. Pros: Decent wine list selections, pasta dishes were tasty Cons:staff was polite but not friendly, seating near the kitchen was noisy and chaotic, felt very rushed, limited menu options available-we were told they ran out of bread. I get running out of a dessert item or specialty item but how does an upscale Italian Pasta and Pizza restaurant not have bread? They also ran out of our dessert option after we had ordered it so we decided to go elsewhere for drinks and dessert and had a much better experience at a different restaurant. Overall the experience did not justify the price. The pasta was good but you can find better dining experiences with similar quality of food elsewhere in Charlotte. I had heard really good things so I don't regret trying it out but would not go back.

My friends and I had a birthday celebration here in early January. My friends enjoyed their food, but I personally think the food was average. We were having a good time up until we were asked to leave. We did nothing wrong. We just wanted to chat after we finished our meals. I had never been asked to leave a restaurant before. We were told that they were going to need the tables, but there were literally several tables available. It was not a busy evening. I will never return or recommend this restaurant to anyone. Would the owner like to explain why we were asked to leave and then stared at us awkwardly as we were waiting for my friend to use the bathroom?

We love The Jimmy, not only for the food and the atmosphere, but also because they truly take care of customers with allergies. The host, our waiter and the manager all took time of reassure me of the care they took to keep my food safe from nuts. It makes the experience so much more comfortable. And the cocktails are always great!
