Prices are mid. Place is clean. Be ready for sweet cause they put sugar in everything. Sweet cornbread. Sweet coleslaw. Food quality is mid. Service is mid. Overall right down the middle. read more

Service was incredible and food was amazing! Recommend the raw oysters, burger and fish!

3 stars honestly for the seasoned, crunchy fries and decent service. They were really nice and accommodating and VERY fast! However, the lunch catfish and shrimp was mid. I had two shrimps that were pretty yummy, fresh tasting, and well seasoned. The rest was lacking major flavor sadly. The batter was nice, just needed some more dusting of adventurous seasonings lol. Fries were good! Even hush puppies didn't have that slightly crunchy texture to balance the soft cornbread on the inside /: The churros were below mid sadly. No cinnamon sugar and it was chocolate Hershey sauce instead of cajeta sauce like stated on the menu (caramel) If I was starving, I'd comfortably eat it but I was saving my seafood craving for here and can't say it hit the mark. I appreciate the good service read more

We had a party of 4, dining on Father's Day. Yes, it was busy but our waitress, Mandy, was fantastic. Although she seemed stressed at times, she always came to the table with a smile on her face and treated us with a pleasant attitude. If you go, ask for Mandy to be your waitress. You won't be disappointed. Side note: the food was excellent and I will definitely go back. read more

It was delicious! They brought out sweet cornbread after we were seated, then we shared some amazing poblano soup. For our entrees we had the coconut shrimp and the chicken and poblano enchiladas. We had never eaten here before, but we'll be back! The service was excellent, too! They had $5 martinis, so we each had one. A lemon drop and a dirty martini. Definitely 5 stars! I wish we had this restaurant at home! read more

Food was very basic. For the price you pay, I'd expect better quality. Crawfish were nothing amazing very basic. read more

Went for lunch with my mom with quite an appetite for seafood. Unfortunately the price mark didn't hit the spot as much as the food did. Long story short liked the food not the prices. Service was not bad not great read more

Wow really great food and service was wonderful We had the calamari shrimp and jalapeno peppers yummy They serve cornbread with your meal that was awesome Also had the tropical shrimp dinner it was delicious read more

Food was pretty good and came out hot. The wait staff was friendly and welcoming. The chicken poblano soup was tasty and so were the chicken strips/fries. Boudin balls were a bit questionable. Overall, I'd come back again. read more

Amazing shrimp plates! Isd mention other items, but I always get their shrimp. Great service and clean!

Where do I begin, oh jimmy joes the restaurant you are. The food proportions can feed a family of 7 with just 2 regular plates. I ate till I was full and looked down and my plate had not changed. Forgot her name but our server was sweeter than sugar and was quick with it! Would recommend! read more

This is a busy place at lunch! We were seated quickly and our server was right there. I had the lunch size fried shrimp with tots and there were a TON of tots! The slaw that came with was the best I've had in a while. My husband had shrimp tacos that came with rice and beans. He thought there were too many pickled onions on the tacos and the beans were very salty (mind you we are on a low sodium diet). Overall good service, decent prices and my food was tasty! read more

I took my dad here for lunch, at his request (he frequents the restaurant) and it was such an awesome experience I had to do a review!! The service was great, our waitress Jadyn was attentive, polite and helpful. The other wait staff also checked on us when they passed by!! My dad had the lunch fish and shrimp basket and I the lunch shrimp basket. The meal automatically comes with corn bread muffins and yummy seasoned garlic butter! Also, we had the mac n cheese brisket balls, they were so good, I definitely recommend them to anyone who's going. The restaurant is a nice size, so no tables smashed together. read more

Food was hot and ready. Friendly staff. Love the catfish and shrimps. And the hot cornbread is amazing with the butter.

My husband and I came here looking for crawfish. We are spending a weekend in Brazoria and this was the closest with the best reviews. I'm glad we came the crawfish was amazing. They make their own garlic butter.!! If ever in the area we will be back read more

We've never been disappointed after leaving here! The food, service, atmosphere, prices, and portions are incredible. If only they'd give up that cornbread recipe, I'd give them the fifth star Nobody's perfect though. read more

Solid chain just outside of Freeport with friendly, helpful service. It's definitely not a "mom & pop" but their fried seafood baskets are a lot of food, and offer a good deal on the M-F lunch special. $14 for a fresh shrimp and catfish basket with tots. Their gulf oysters (raw on the half shell) were also solid. Briny enough and fresh tasting. Not bad for a half dozen at $11. read more

Fun place - karaoke some nights - plates served beautifully and food very fresh! Food service was perfect - cocktails were busy so a little bit of a wait but drink specials were delicious. read more

The waitress Jayden was amazing. The hostess Olivia, not at all with a terrible attitude. Her being the first one you see in the restaurant really turned us off. The lady walking around with her curly hair hanging down is not sanitary. This place was good at first, but not now. The food tasted like it was fried in old grease. read more

I'm sad we didn't take any pictures of the fabulous food! My cousin LOVES oysters on the half shell and she said they were the best she's had in a long time! The gumbo had just the right amount heat and plenty of sausage and chicken. My hubby really loved the redfish and I loved the fried catfish and shrimp combo. The manager came by our table and our server was very attentive. read more

First time taking my daughter here, though I've been multiple times. The food was great, especially the crawfish, which my daughter had. She also loved our server, Kelby, who was very helpful with the menu and was just an outgoing and friendly person overall. The setting was also very nice, since it was a hot day outside, the cool air cooled us down and made us feel calm. read more

This is our third time to eat here and every time we had a great experience! The food is superb and the staff is awesome!!! Great Margaritas and seafood platters! Petra was very responsive and took care of us. Rosa, the manager made sure everything is good and even gave us complimentary corn bread and bday dessert! This will always be our Go To restaurant when we visit Lake Jackson/ Surfside! 5 stars for Jimmy Joe's!!! read more

Surprised. This was an amazing meal. Fried catfish and shrimp combo. Possibly the best catfish I've ever eaten. Highly recommend. Plain, open, come as you are restaurant with great food. Little loud but well worth it. read more

The bang bang shrimp is so awesome. Fresh fried shrimp with an awesome spicy Mayo sauce. For sure the best I've ever tasted. DH had the JJ's bacon wrapped jumbo shrimp & they were amazing. Our server Joshua was wonderful! So on top of everything!!!Love street beer on tap & I'm a happy girl...it's been 6 months since we were here last- why??

went in at 115 pm and sat at bar. No service offered and bar tender didnt even say hi

Great place overall! Loved the friendliness of the staff as soon as we walked in, our server was very attentive, sweet, and a great conversationalist! on top of all that (what we were here for) the food was spectacular! They have a pretty big menu, so there's something for everyone but the main show for us was the flavorful seafood as well as the portions of the food they served! I tried the gulf coast shrimp and a cup of gumbo and it absolutely warmed my soul! They also offer different drink specials (Monday and Tuesday 2.99 margs) as well as different specials the rest of the week! Check these guys out! read more

Gigi made the best ranch water I ever had! Seafood was nice, fresh and spicy. Miguel and Alonso the managers are running a tight ship! The atmosphere was perfect for my dad's birthday. 10/10 experience read more

Terrible experience, I can't say enough bad things about my experience here. the waitress got our order wrong 3 times(it was a simple order). The bar made drinks left a lot to be desired and were sour. the manager is extremely unprofessional . Once we finally got our food right and got done being chastized by the manager the food was okay. I hope they release the current manager from her role and really buckle down on getting orders right(this isn't the first time) this place would be amazing. I will tell as many people as I can to avoid this restaurant until they get it fixed. read more

My wife and I had a solid meal here with friends. Nothing will blow you out of the water, but no reason not to have a decent meal. We both had chicken and thought the food was plenty flavorful. Service was fast and attentive, and the prices were decent. It's a little noisy in there, but that's to be expected because of the style restaurant it is. This spot fits squarely in my four star rating -- five stars means I will run to eat there any chance I get, three stars means I would never go back, and four stars means I would go back but it won't be a must go back to place -- but I definitely would not avoid having lunch or dinner there again with friends. read more

Great service! The drink sodas we ordered were a bit sour and watery but the other ones we ordered were great! (The lemonade was my personal favorite though). The food was also great especially the macho burger! We got our food and drinks extremely fast and probably took us about 25 minutes to get our drink, appetizers, and main course. Would recommend to anyone in the area. read more

It's our first time to this area. No idea where to eat. We were hungry, a bit out of sorts from being on the road and generally tired. Initial impression was that it's a nice place but it was loud. Very loud. But then, it's apparently a popular place. Very sports bar type place but nice and bright and decently family-friendly. My son had the mac n cheese. He LOVED them. I had some and agree with him. Really good mac. My wife and I both had the pick 2, she had grilled crawfish and grilled shrimp. I had fried shrimp and blackened catfish. Everything but the crawfish was really very good. The crawfish was just a bit dry and tasteless catfish was moist and tasty. Both our shrimp were big and juicy. Service was spot on. No delays and the waitress was friendly and attentive. Food came promptly. Only complaint is the Old Fashioned we ordered. It was very light on the whiskey. But otherwise tasted good. read more

First, I want to say that the server was super polite and attentive. She did a fantastic job. If she didn't know an answer, she went to ask. Now, the food. Unbelievably bland. The only flavor to the fish was the oil it was fried in. I that southern fried catfish was supposed to have flavor. The Tartar sauce was so strange that the server got worried. When she saw my face. She came back with cocktail (which tasted like something I can get at Kroger) and said she tried the Tartar sauce, and that it tasted like potato salad. I was like, so that's what that is? So strange. The only thing that was good were the jalapeño hush puppies. Also, why do we need another boil place? That's like opening up another Mexican restaurant down here. The menu is focused on the higher end products. Burgers look to be an after thought on the rather limited menu. And it's way far too over priced for what it is. And the music is so loud. I'm glad I went by myself, because I wouldn't have been able to have a conversation. The server and I were having problems talking. My overall opinion is that they're trying to cater to the elderly that still want to pretend that they eat spicy food. The only way I'm going back is after a complete overhaul of the recipes. The corporate chef should be embarrassed. I mean unless MCL cafeteria and Luby's were their only previous experience... read more

The staff is great, the restaurant itself is excellent for the area. The food isn't even bad. It's the value you get for your money I had an issue with. You could drive to Galveston and eat at Gaido's for these prices and get more food for your dollar. Don't get me wrong, I'm fine with spending money on a great meal. I love a good steakhouse. However, let's take what my wife ordered for example. JJ's Favorite Shrimp. For $20 she got 4 shrimp. That's a value of $5 per shrimp. Was the person drunk who put this menu together? For $22 I got two pieces of fried catfish and 5 fried shrimp. I could drive to Texas City, eat at The Reef and get all I can eat for that price. read more

Excellent shrimp potato s and corn in a creamy Cajun sauce. Loved the Cajun butter flavor for the cornbread. Waitress was great.

New place in Lake Jackson. Service is over the top, as to be expected from what we have come to love from restaurants the owners have. Really clean neat place. Lots of TVs for sporting events and great bar as well. Well done Jimmy Joe's read more
