    Receipt - big bowl of soup for less than $6.00.
    Mark P.

    Review left December 2024. Well earned 5-star review. Jimbo's Diner. This restaurant is located in/next-to La Vista Keno. It does not smell of smoke. If you're into keno, you can play at your dining table. There are over twenty 4-tops, a dozen booths, and several party tables. Music is modern and sublime. You hear it, but it never overwhelms. You'll soon get numb to the intermittent "Keno calling". It does sound tempting to play when you hear that "the last game had a two thousand dollar winner". I have never played. Service is excellent at Jimbo's Diner. Kurt W. waited on me tonight and, like his colleagues have done previously, did a great job. I started with a BIG bowl of delicious beef barley soup. I recommend the soup, but perhaps the smaller cup-size next time. Daily specials include prime rib on Thursday nights. That is what brought me here originally. Sub-$30 prime rib! I'm now coming back to try other food. Today is a Monday and it is Mexican night at Jimbo's Diner. Taco baskets and enchilada dinners are on sale. None of the specials cost more than $10 tonight. Expansive menu. Something for everybody. Unless it's prime rib night, I'm guessing it's hard to exceed a $25 tab unless you're drinking alcohol. Food comes out pretty quick. I was about 1/3 full after my huge bowl of soup, so I finished with an inexpensive, tasty BLT sandwich with cottage cheese. I couldn't finish everything... An endless soda, soup, and a BLT sandwich came to $18.43 (December 2024). Next time I will skip the soup. Or have soup and salad. A bowl of soup and a sandwich with a side is too much food. I want to try the daily specials. The prime rib is excellent. Plenty of off street parking. A healthy meal for a decent price. I highly recommend Jimbo's Diner.

    Amazingly moist carrot cake!

    LOVE,LOVE,LOVE JIMBO'S!!! Had the $9.99 Wednesday Meatloaf special and it's enough for 2. And you can play KENO. What's not to love...Extra Tip....The dessert is every bit as good if not better than high dollar places for a fraction of the cost!

    Blt with onion rings
    Clare M.

    We came for lunch right when it opened at 11:00 on a Tuesday. Our server, Leah was very friendly and knowledgeable. I had the Jimbo cheeseburger, my companion had the BLT with onion rings. The onion rings could have had a little more flavor, but it was great that they weren't overly greasy and didn't fall apart. The dining room was clean and well lit. The keno was not disruptive to the meal at all.

    If you are looking for fancy dining, keep on driving by. Jumbos serves good food at a good price with friendly hometown service. The meals are no frills, but quality food. Sunday brunch goes until two. I had the Denver omelette, generous portion for the price and tasty. The hash browns were crispy just like I like them. Hopefully you like wheat or white toast, no fancy sourdough here. My toast was toasted well and well buttered.

    No more BOGO burgers on Weds. Fine. But they took away all the really good burgers and now they're just regular diner burger. Closer Keno place still has great burgers on the menu at a Weds night special. Chips and queso is described as, "Jack cheese, tomatoes, red onion and cilantro simmered to perfection and served with house made chips." I guess the tomatoes, red onion green Chili's and cilantro are the ingredients of rotel because that's all this tasted like, canned cheese and rotel. Should've read between the lines. And the house they make the chips is a Tostitos factory. Spaghetti was actually pretty delish. Waitress told me they were packaged frozen meatballs but I wouldn't have known otherwise. Menu says it comes with 4 but i got three which was still plenty. Spaghetti sauce is house made and on the sweeter side. Garlic toast with it was good. They seem to be going a much cheaper route and cutting corners, sadly, like a lot of places. Servers here are all so sweet and attentive. Never ever have had a problem with service here! If you aren't satisfied with your meal, don't take it out on them. They didn't make the changes I'm sure.

    Biscuit and Gravy Platter

    Been wanting to visit for some time & finally had the opportunity. Didn't disappoint... Ordered the Biscuit & Gravy Platter and it was so good! Came out fast and hot and waitress was pleasant and efficient. She was on her own when I first came but was covering all the tables quickly with a smile on her face. Will be back for sure.....

    Prime Rib Friday special!
    Chris D.

    We went on a Friday night for their prime rib special. Upon walking into the lounge area a sign was posted stating that food orders were taking 45 minutes. Kudos to them for being honest. We decided to wait it out. For as packed as they were our waitress was right on top of us. The food actually only took about 30 minutes to come out. Huge piece of steak, baked potato and spaghetti. The prime rib was cooked well, and although the 2" strip on the end of the steak was tender, the middle was quite chewy. The baked potato was fine, and the spaghetti was just a standard very bland side. Really wasn't expecting a lot more I suppose. For the price and quantity of food I'd give it 3 plus stars, but for the overall taste I'm going to have to stick with a 2.

    Like I've said before, it's kind of hard to screw up breakfast and this was a pretty decent to good breakfast. The scrambled eggs weren't fluffy enough for my taste, they were really flat and thin, weird. The pancakes were thick with a little crunch on the edges, just the way I love them. Yum! Coffee didn't need any cream, on account of being just a tad week. I will go again, due to the extremely low prices snd friendly service. Breakfast for two, with coffee -$13

    Nothing to write home about. If you're into double portions they do pile it on. Keno atmosphere. Mostly deep fried food on the menu.

Their Griddled French Toast is also kept pretty simple, with a small dusting of powdered sugar, some strawberries and whip. Went well with their traditional syrup! Parking is a blast but I promise their food makes up for the limited spacing. Their cinnamon rolls and other sweet treats right when you walk in, looked AMAZING. Definitely going to have to grab a few to-go next time.

My husband is a much harsher critic than I am, and he gave it a "rare 5.5 out of 5." The pancakes were some of the fluffiest I've ever had. They also have a great selection of coffee flavors to choose from, which was a fun bonus. The coffee paired perfectly with breakfast, though I probably wouldn't come here just for the coffee alone. The flavor was good but it did have a slight burnt taste. A quick note: you order at the counter before sitting down. It's a mix of self-serve and sit-down service. You order at the counter, grab your own silverware, and seat yourself, but they bring your food and drinks out to you (other than water). I do wish they were a bit more attentive about clearing finished plates during the meal. The restaurant was so busy that the line was out the door when we arrived, but it moved surprisingly fast. I was worried we wouldn't find a table, yet there were plenty of open seats available. The atmosphere is also really nice and cozy, making it a great spot to start your day.

We were surprised we ordered before sitting but I found that really nice actually. The woman working the front register seemed to be having a day, but as soon as my social butterfly of a child started being silly, the woman became a lot more friendly. After we ordered, we got a handheld order indicator and placed it on our chosen table. I got the churro French toast, my husband the breakfast sandwich with crispy potato's on the side, and then we ordered a side of bacon. French toast was fun. Crispy and crunchy, good with and without syrup. It had 3 triangles and it was easily shareable, but I understand if you don't want to haha. The breakfast sandwich was dense. We were surprised at how heavy it actually was. My husband said he liked the sage taste throughout the sausage, and he liked the aioli they had on it as well. The crispy potatos were different. Not bad, but lots of fried skin instead of actual potato. Bacon was good minus one obviously burnt piece that we asked the bar attendant if there was a way to fix it. She went to drop off someone's drink and came back with one properly cooked piece. She was wonderful. Overall, we'd come back, and we'd bring our friends

Even driving home 15 minutes, the waffle was still crispy, the buttercream kept its form, and the combination was delicious. My husband got the cinnamon roll pancakes and we both thought it was lacking a bit. They do however roll the pancakes up to look like a cinnamon roll, which we thought was fun. It unfortunately was underwhelming on the cinnamon sugar part. It was like eating a plain ole pancake. Despite the one off, I'd say we'd probably come back for to-go orders on a weekday.

The restaurant itself is pretty good. There's a variety of seating options with plenty that would accommodate a wheelchair. The bathroom door was OK and there was a stall that worked great with all the usual amenities involved
