Tyr LegendMay 27, 2014Chipotle ketchup! The food is pretty good. Limited menu, but just order something you can put the ketchup on! It's amazing!! Indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the marina.. Def going back
Joe PreciadoJanuary 28, 2012Next time you're in SD, try Jimmy's on Harbor Dr. Sitting on the boarwalk with Marina just ft away, great for sunsets or any time of day. Gotta try the fried chicken. Some good local drafts on tap.
AzinAugust 19, 2023Onion rings were amazing. I didn’t know this place has a ranking for them!We also had taco and burgers ! Fresh and juicy burger made my day after a long time of not having burgers .
Matt S.November 21, 2014Great Burgers , Great Onion rings & great service. Nice beer selection . Sit out on the patio & enjoy the Marina views . A must if looking for a great place near Point Loma .
Never had a bad meal here. Burgers are a great go to, truly one of the best in San Diego. Pulled pork and fried chicken are also phenomenal. Hard to go wrong with anything though.
Don CarterSeptember 23, 2013Fantastic food. Blue Burger is one of the best I've had. Apple coleslaw is delicious and refreshing. Don't forget the home made chips. Heather was attentive and friendly.
If you want a low carb option, try one of their burgers without bun and a side salad!
Stuart TaylorAugust 9, 2014Onion rings and devil eggs are great starters. The burger is amazing. For drinks the majito is a must have
Colette MyersFebruary 17, 2013Great service, great drinks, and GREAT food! You can't go wrong when you come here! Mitch, the manager, has most of the best service in comparison to any other restaurant!
Monica BaliMay 1, 2012Great views. Amazing food. Certainly is my favorite lunch spot. Deviled eggs for an app. And the grilled cheese w/ a side of turkey chili is my lunch usual at Jimmy's.
Tulum Living MxAugust 19, 2013Try the Beer Battered Onion Rings - These are the biggest,most delicious onion rins I have ever had. Plus homemade Chipotle ketchup. Yummy- Love the cocktails, deviled eggs are a standout. Have not had a bad meal here ever.
Always have Pranqster on tap! You are missing out if you dont get their homemade potato chips as an app! Burgers, short ribs, and salads too
Kirsten UdaniMarch 14, 2013Fast friendly service. Great outdoor seating and good local beer selection. Local organic ingredients. Delish food!
Matthew TorresApril 3, 2017Mondays are great here. Choice of burger and draft beer for $14 bucks, all day.
Chris BarthuleJuly 6, 2012Blues burger was brilliant! I ordered mine with avocado! Best burger I ever had. The house ketchup is excellent!
- ᴡ MillerJuly 29, 2012Try the Creme Brulee French Toast - More like dessert than breakfast. Quite divine!
Spencer MartinMay 18, 2010Great burgers! Great place to enjoy a waterfront view and have lunch. Little pricey but worth it. The breakfast is not worth it, food is bad for breakfast if you ask me.
Scott R.March 6, 2012The O-rings rock and the steak salad satisfies. Great place for lunch with a pint of Woodie Gold-or two.
Keri RobinsonJune 25, 2010Love the French onion burger and chili cheese fries. Also loved the strawberry ginger deluxe! Outdoor seating is nice with views of the bay.- My favorite brunch place to recall my Saturday nights. Use the delicious homemade ketchup, you're welcome.
- Tulum Living MxAugust 23, 2013Try the Fish N' Chips - Such a great fish dish with killer tartar sauce.
Barbara GalvezJanuary 17, 2011Sit outside around sunset, great view of the harbor, boats and with a grapefruit cocktai...makes a great afternoon. :D
Bee KSeptember 2, 2012The jfat bfast sandwich was amazing they put hollandaise on the side if your calorie cautious.
Scott WoodruffNovember 27, 2011New England clam chowder is better than what you can get in New England.
great service, location, food & atmosphere. try it out! and try happy hour. definitely coming back.
Ole BAugust 6, 2022Your typical tavern. I didn’t find it interesting at all. Food was regular and nothing exceptional.
Ion VodkaFebruary 19, 2011This place is killer! The bartenders are amazing and love using Ion Electrolyte Enhanced Vodka. Say hi to Jimmy for us!
Can't beat the location. Seeing all the yachts is inspiring.
Sunday brunch is the best time to go there. Just get anything with gravy and you'll be happy.
