Went here on December 31, 2021 around 11:10. When my father and I sat down the woman brought us a menu and made it clear they were only serving lunch. We had our minds set on breakfast but no big deal decided to order the "New Castle Cheesesteak". As we were sitting there an older gentleman comes in and orders breakfast...I proceed to say oh we're we able to order breakfast? She responds with your sandwich is almost done anyways. Mind you this waitress never smiled once since we arrived and seemed to have an attitude the whole time. Our sandwich comes out and the meat was dry, chewy, and flavorless. Needless to say the dogs might enjoy it when we bring it home to them. The waitress asked "what's wrong, don't you like it". I say it's fine because there is nothing else that I could possibly want from there. It smells of grease when you come in and now I'm also leaving with the smell as well. Then the woman cooking said as I was checking out if you wanted breakfast you should have just asked....what a headache. I said it's fine I just want to get out of here because honestly It's not worth my breath. Not sure this review is even worth it. Honestly order the water it was the best thing I had here. read more

Fat Jimmy's - a slice of cheeseburger - Restaurants Near Me - New Castle, Pennsylvania

Typical trucker joint. Not worth the stop if you ask me. The establishment is dirty and cluttered. No effort in my eyes. I had a rack of ribs with a side of baked beans and cole slaw. I will review each item. Slaw: typical KFC out of a 3 gallon tub slaw. Looks like they added green peppers to make it look home made. 1/5 Beans: had a very distinctive taste. I couldn't quite pick out what it reminded me of. Yesterday's hamburger meat was added. Someone tell Jimmy this is baked beans not chili. Ribs: undersized and over priced. Not sure what type of equipment they use to cook them but they were way over cooked on too high of a heat. The seasoning made it taste like beef jerky. I had my other half with their house sauce. Nothing special either. End result is that it's not worth the drive or price. Your better off driving to Clem's or Ruby Tuesdays if your not in the mood for a road trip. Will I go back? For dinner? NO. For breakfast? Il wait till someone recommends it. read more

Fat Jimmy's - Eh - Restaurants Near Me - New Castle, Pennsylvania

I finally tried this place after driving by it so many times. The servers were phenomenal. They welcome you the moment you walk in, make you feel at home and ensure you are taken care of from start to finish. The pulled pork was okay, definitely not anything more special than you can get at a chain restaurant. The prices are very reasonable. I only wish I had not watched the food being prepared. Food handling protocols are lacking; barehands and dropped items on the food prep counter placed back on the plate. read more

This place is gross. First of all, our waiter sneezed on us. And was coughing and hacking all over everything. The dining room is filthy. When was the last time they cleaned anything? There looked to be years of dust on the window ac unit which had dusty stuffed animals on it. The food was meh. Beef brisket should be more than sliced roast beef (fatty roast beef) tossed in lame BBQ sauce. This place is just awful. read more

What an awesome find. The building left a little to be desired but the food more than made up for it.

The food is pretty good but VERY greasy. I don't eat there often because I get sick almost everytime I go there. ( I can't eat at the Waffle House either but the food is still good.) Good tried and true BBQ. I get breakfast there and it is worth feeling miserable all day. I love the pulled pork hash. That's right I said PULLED PORK HASH ! Your basic hash with pulled pork eggs, toast and jalapeños. So good. They ribs are very good as well but to be honest we always go for breakfast. read more

This place has the best onion rings I've ever had. The sandwhich I ordered was perfect and delicious. Our waitress was also very friendly. Definitely will return if I'm ever in the area again! read more

Fat Jimmy's - a plate of fries and a sandwich - Restaurants Near Me - New Castle, Pennsylvania

The new castle steak sandwich was good nice portion on the meat. However the decor wow just drab it's like walking in to a abandoned place that was opened without thought. The fries were fresh cut but over cooked and the baked beans look more like dog food them edible. If this place wishes to continue they need to do some overhauling felt like I had to bring Lysol wipes to clean!!! read more

At the recommendation of my father, I drove up from Pittsburgh to try Fat Jimmy's on a Tuesday afternoon. The prior review by Adam couldn't be farther from accurate, which is why I am writing my first yelp review after being a user for years. The pork wings special was an 8/10 on my bbq scale - perfectly smoked then deep fried for crispness and tossed in a delicious Louisiana BBQ sauce. The hand cut fries and chili were also superb. Additionally the staff was friendly and attentive, and the place isn't fancy (No frills) but super clean - the way a good bbq spot should be. read more

I highly recommend the NY Strip they have only on sat nights. It is better than any fancy steak house I have been too , melt in your mouth and cooked to perfection with the perfect amount of seasoning (I don't get the glaze on it) and it's made on a BBQ pit out back. Macaroni salad is very good too. Yes it's not the fanciest place but that steak is worth it! Nick does a great job at the BBQ pit ! Breakfast is good too ..the bacon is thick cut and cooked right (I ask for myne slightly crispy not over cooked). read more

Never heard of it. We were just passing by saw it and stopped because I like BBQ. We had pulled pork, corn balls, beans, coleslaw & chicken sandwich. We enjoyed them all. If we go past there on another trip we will stop again. read more

This was my first time eating at Fay Jimmy's and let me tell you I already cannot wait to go back. I had the badass bones for lunch. I honestly was expecting to finish it all when I ordered. I was happily mistaken. I am not saying I am a BBQ expert by any means, just I am fat and have been around the block a few times. These were some the meatier and tenders ribs I have ever had the pleasure of eating. I ate maybe 2 of the wings thay came with my meal. I had spicy garlic which were delicious and the wings were huge. There is nothing g worse when you get wings and they are tiny (looking at you quaker steak), and not fried till crispy. The sides were also quite delicious. I had the baked beans and coleslaw. I went to lunch with my mom and she ordered the same with a different wing sauce and the potato salad. I tasted the potato salad and it was delicious the only places I can say I have had better I probably made it or it was Tessaros. I personally cannot wait to return here. I think next time I will go for the gator tail or frog legs. read more
