Dylan Kaylee and Makayla greeted you right at the door with big smiles. They broke into kind conversation and made you feel like you were long lost friends. I got the lobster seafood mac & cheese. It tasted excellent. The taste of lobster was robust and exuberant with flavor. My husband got the green chili chicken Mac. And he was speechless as towards how much the green chili taste is so amazing. The ambience is like walking into a family reunion. They greeted everyone at the door by name. And made sure they went above and beyond to give them the order that they always like. I highly recommend this restaurant. It is definitely worth the find. read more

Delicious Mac & Cheese Meets Garden-Fresh Salads I didn't expect a mac and cheese spot to also win me over with their salad, but this place nailed both. What makes it stand out: * Truly made to order: You watch them start your bowl from scratch. My BBQ Steak & Bacon Mac hit the table so delicious, with that perfect stretch you only get when the sauce is built right then. * Fresh ingredients, no shortcuts: The kitchen is serious about produce. The Roasted Vegetables & Fruit in my salad were crisp and peppered with fresh strawberries. * Customization without the chaos: You pick your pasta, cheeses, and mix-ins, and they build it while you watch. * Salads that aren't just a side hustle: My wife ordered the savannah salad with fresh avocado that was amazing with the Honey Mustard Dressing. This could be a main stop just for salads Vibe & Service Counter service, but the staff calls out your name like they actually cooked for you. Because they did. And I was eating top quality food in minutes. Dessert Don't sleep on the dessert either. The Chocolate Fudge Cake and Tiramisu was amazing. Bottom line If you want mac and cheese that tastes like someone's grandma made it five minutes ago, and a salad that is fresh then this is your place to fill your tummy. Fresh ingredients and made-to-order isn't a tagline here. It's the whole operation. read more

Cute little place in a shopping strip/complex, nice to see the awards they have won posted on the walls. The service was friendly for my take out order, everything seemed to be correct in the bag. The kids really enjoyed their mac and cheeses, my daughter got the elote, so much corn! My wife and I got salads, I enjoyed my Caesar which was a good portion with lots of yummy parmesan shavings, delicious croutons and definitely filling. My wife couldnt finish hers so she ate the rest leftover. Definitely get the extra dressing, the salads are HUGE. They won over customers in our family. read more

I don't eat a lot of Mac and Cheese because I'm semi-lactose intolerant. So it means a lot when I'm willing to risk experiencing GI issues and this place is definitely worth it! They make everything to order so it's fresh, warm and gooey!!! The moment we stepped in, the servers were welcoming and friendly. They showed enthusiasm and offered to answer any questions or make recommendations if we wanted. I got the Philly cheesesteak mac and cheese - it was amazing!! My friend got the green chile max and cheese - it's what he got the last time and loved it. I tasted it and it was very good too! We also got the Buffalo chicken Mac and cheese and that had some good heat! All three dishes were great. The Philly cheesesteak one was my favorite!! The space was homey and clean. Loved it! read more

How does one put into words how gratifying this mac and cheese was? By far some of the best I've ever had. I went with my friend and her kiddo. We tried the lemonades, we tried the tiramisu, but the best part was trying three different flavors. The bbq steak and bacon was Texas in a bowl. Smoky and decadent. The Philly cheesesteak didn't even make you miss the bread. The depth of flavor was spot on. The elote mac is a must. I added chicken. Bowl fed me three meals the portions were so big. The elote bowl had cilantro, I'm a soap gene person with cilantro, but they did not overwhelm the dish making it really enjoyable. The service was incredible and friendly and Jimmy, the owner, was there dishing people up. It was clean and roomy and in an easy to find location. I'll definitely be going back. read more

Met a friend for lunch and had one of Jimmy G's signature salads. It was so good with a lot of chicken and dressing in the side. Generous portions and very quick to get our meal. There are a lot of choices for Mac'n cheese, so stop by and give them a try. You'll be glad you did. read more

"Why do we call them olives and not Greece's Pieces?" - @EmissaryKerry, Twitter/X My friend had been telling me for months that Jimmy G's was his favorite place for salad. Time to time, he'd even send me a photo of what he was eating. While I gotta admit, every item he's ever shown me had looked delicious, I'm all about this drive-thru salad concept that's about half-a-mile away. Enough is enough though. I wanted to give Jimmy G's a shot and I'm sooo glad I did. What I've tried so far: Green Chile Chicken Mac ($12 - Mac & Cheese with cotija cheese crumbles and chicken): If you're a fan of green chile, your skirt will flip over this pasta dish. It's everything you want: Carbs, cheese, spice, and some protein. Roasted Veggie & Fruit Salad with Steak added($8 + $3 - Mixed greens, roasted brussel sprouts, broccoli, dried cranberries, walnuts, strawberries, and spinach tossed in a raspberry vinaigrette + steak): I added steak purely because that's how my friend orders it. I figured I'd give his favorite salad a try and it was good! Crisp fresh salad, a sweet vinaigrette, and the steak was cooked to perfection. And who doesn't love the tiny cabbage that is a brussel sprout? 5 out of 5, I really enjoyed this place. And being that they're right next to my favorite post-workout smoothie shop, I think I'll be adding this place to the rotation. I definitely prefer the pasta over the salad though! read more

Guys! This place is so amazing! I work at a K-12 school and we were having a fundraiser event at this restaurant (they're giving our organization 30% of their proceeds for four hours on a Friday night). First of all, that is class act in and of itself! But when I went to support the school, I found the most delicious dishes, everything fresh, delish, made to order & such nice staff. I highly recommend this place....gluten-free everything (except the meatballs) so gluten-free folk, you can eat safely here! So many vegetarian friendly options and the prices are not as bad as everywhere else. This is one of those reviews that I almost hate leaving because next time I'm gonna have to wait in line lol. Thanks for the high-quality variations of delicious comfort food... Amazing! read more

My daughter enjoyed her elotes Mac n' cheese! The portions were great, fast service, and we enjoyed our experience at this local eatery.

As advertised....best Mac & Cheese around! The restaurant is super clean and the service was as friendly as can be. Love the decor of the place as well! I went with the Green Chile Chicken Mac. The chicken was in grilled small chunks and there was a perfect amount of chilies as well. BUT THE CHEESE....creamy and cheesy to the last bite! That was the highlight....loved it! On a scale of 1 to 10, I'm gonna hit this place up again for sure. I wanted to try a few other Mac's but these portions are big....my stomach can only pack in so much. read more

A small shop serving salads, pasta, and mac and cheese. They have an award for their mac, so we decided to try their mac and cheese. We got the elote mac and cheese ($12) with chicken (+$3), green Chile mac and cheese ($12), their teas ($3), and the tiramisu ($5). The service is very good and they're friendly. I'm not a massive mac and cheese lover but this wasn't the bad. The cheese was a bit too runny for me and there aren't enough toppings for me compared to how many noodles there are. The chicken has a smoky flavor and kind of tastes like chipotle's chicken. The mac is cooked well and isn't rubbery or hard. The toppings go well with the mac and cheese and I think their flavor profile is good. Their teas and lemonade are both good and help cut some of the cheesiness of the mac. I would not recommend the tiramisu. It's not wet enough and extremely creamy. The coffee flavor is overly bitter. Overall, I think people who like or love mac and cheese would like this place while, for me, it's just decent. read more

We stopped at Jimmy G's for dinner before heading to a play at Mesa Community College. We were impressed by the reasonable prices, creative salads, and basic Mac and Cheese. My wife and I each ordered the Roasted Veggies and Fruit Salad. I was not accustomed to having Brussels sprouts in a salad but it was remarkably good. I added grilled shrimp to my salad which enhanced the delicious flavors. The combination of flavors, textures, and temperatures made each bite a festival of dining delights. The restaurant had a chill vibe with pop music playing in the background. We enjoyed our visit with Jimmy and the quality service he provided. Highly recommend! read more

Jimmy G's is our new go to spot for quick delicious pastas. So glad we found out about this spot from a local foodie. Staff was very welcoming and inviting once you walk in their door. Restaurant is clean and well kept. We tried their elote Mac and cheese that's on special right now and their roasted veggies and fruit salad. The Mac and cheese was delicious and decadent. Thick cheese sauce, roasted corn, cilantro, chili spices and cojita cheese. This was the star of the show that day. Can't recommend it enough, definitely needs to be added to their menu. The veggie and fruit salad was simple but satisfying. Salad with Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cranberries, walnuts and strawberries. Their raspberry vinaigrette was refreshing and is the perfect dressing for this. Can't wait to come back! Thanks for the welcoming invite read more

The service was fine and they were very nice. I was kind of excited. Mac and cheese and I put on olives and garlic. I can tell you the only flavor were the olives and garlic. The mac and cheese was flavorless and in 10 minutes turned into gelatinous blob. Maybe if they had chopped up the olives and the garlic which is what I was expecting, there would have actually been flavor throughout. But it's like Velveeta mac and cheese... I also got a salad which is 9/10 iceberg lettuce and and there's just a few things on top. I don't even think it's half an avocado, 10 croutons, cheese shavings maybe six cherry tomatoes. Even the brownie was nasty. It was nothing but preservatives which was really sad because it was individually wrapped like they were homemade. And the lemonade is only fine. It's really close to where I live but chances are I won't return. read more

Any salad can be made into a wrap. We got the Avocado Caesar chicken wrap. Fantastic. Very fresh, hearty portions. Came quickly, extremely friendly service. Met the owner Jimmy, awesome guy. Will definitely be back to try other options. read more

I found a great place tucked away that unfortunately many may never find, so I wanted to pass the word along. It was the perfect place to meet a friend for a quick bite and I'd heard good things. I love pasta and the options were endless because they have a build your own pasta. Everything is fresh and made in house and to order. If you're watching your carbs they have some incredible looking salads too, but I had to try to mac and cheese and I added chicken to up the protein. Definitely delish. I was not watching my carbs that day so I added a rice krispy treat dipped in CHOCOLATE! You could tell it was homemade because it didn't taste all chemically it was chewy and the perfect ending to a meal! And as a tea snob, I have to say the Peach Mango Green Iced Tea was perfect enough to send me back for seconds to go! Oh, and the owner was super friendly. Great food and service! read more

Wow this spot was such a pleasant surprise! We got word of Jimmy Gs through an IG foodie and were actually craving Mac and cheese so I took it as a sign and a dinner spot was easily decided! Lol Upon entering we were welcomed with a warm welcome by the cashier as well as the owner who even stopped by throughout the meal to see how we were enjoying it. The space was clean and offered some table and booth seating. We knew one dish we wanted: the Elote mac and cheese and opted to balance it out with the roasted veggie salad. OMG i am unsure of what they put in their mac and cheese but the flavor was SO SO good--cheesy, creamy, but not over the top. And the fresh corn mixed in was something I never had before and it was perfect. The salad was amazing in itself too. We opted for grilled chicken as the protein and glad we did. It was grilled perfectly and juicy pieces. The strawberry vinaigrette dressing was refreshing and helped balance the whole meal out. I will seriously be back and looking forward to more max and cheese as well as trying one of their other pastas too! xx read more

My boyfriend and I stopped for lunch at Jimmy G's today and it was delicious! My green chili mac was spicy, but sooooo yummy! My boyfriend's bbq chili was also super yummy. I love how creamy and cheesy the Mac and cheese is. It was the perfect comfort meal for us to enjoy. The restaurants a small shop, but has lots of seating for medium sized groups and smaller tables for couples. I was recommended my Mac and cheese from the owner of the restaurant, who was working the counter. He was super friendly and checked on us during our meal to make sure everything was okay. I would highly recommend trying this place out! read more

Mid. They claim the Mac and cheese is fresh and special Mac and cheese but I watched them heat a plastic bag full of it and pour it into another plastic container and then scoop it into my bowl. The presentation is great but the flavor was entirely lacking. Just tasted like velveeta Mac and cheese if you've made it at home. No additional seasoning and no sharpness from additional shredded or melted cheeses. I could be wrong about the base recipe but either way it did not taste good. Couldn't finish the elote, the bbq steak wasn't bad but we only ate it because we were extremely hungry. read more

I was super happy to find out that everything is customizable to accommodate for allergies/sensory needs. The space was clean and fresh while still feeling welcoming and familiar. The owner was super friendly and made sure everything was tasting great as well, they even knew the orders of the regulars who came in after us. You get a great portion and for a reasonable price, too. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a local place to eat with friends/family that won't break the bank. read more

If you haven't tried Jimmy G's Mac & Cheese yet, you are seriously missing out. Hands down, this is the best mac & cheese I've ever had, and I don't say that lightly. What makes this place so special isn't just the rich, creamy, perfectly cheesy mac -- it's the whole concept. Think of it like a "build-your-own" pasta bar, salad bar, and mac & cheese bar all in one. You get full control, and the combinations are endless. Whether you're craving classic comfort food or you want to get creative with flavors, toppings, and sauces, they absolutely deliver. And here's the cool part -- if you challenge them, they will rise to it. Seriously, throw them your wildest pasta idea, something you've only seen in another restaurant or dreamed up in your head, and they'll make it happen and make it better. You can tell they love what they do because everything comes out delicious, thoughtful, and made with care. On top of that, the owner is one of the friendliest people you'll ever meet. Super welcoming, passionate about the food, and genuinely happy to be serving the community. He's the type of person you end up chatting with and walking away thinking, "I'm definitely coming back here." If you're anywhere near this area, do yourself a favor and stop in for a quick lunch -- or honestly, even a big one. Comfort food, custom creations, awesome people, and the best mac & cheese you'll ever try. Five stars all day. read more
