All the years we've been to Pt Judith and I can't believe we've never tried Jimmy's! They have a great outdoor seating area as well as a small dining room. It is self serve, order at the window and get paged when it's ready. We decided to try a few different items. The clear chowder was delicious with a great clam to potato ratio. To be fair the clam cakes weren't my favorite I don't care for seasoning in them, but my spouse enjoyed them. Fish without the "chips" was a generous portion of flounder cooked to perfection. The cold lobster roll was delicious and plentiful with a perfectly grilled roll. All in all a good option when in the area ! read more

Stopped here on a whim while traveling for work. I can not believe this place was empty. Friendly staff. If the outside wasn't raining they have a nice outdoor seating area. The food was so good. I got the special which was lobster mac and cheese and my coworker got the lobster bisque. Best lobster we've had all week. read more

My grandfather, a Narragansett Lobsterman, always brought us here for the best seafood, clam cakes and chowder in RI. I still think it is the best in the state. Love the red chowder which isn't always easy to find in RI and if you do it tends to be too tomato flavored. The clam broth is well balanced in Jimmy's Portside chowder. The clam cakes actually have pieces of clam that are visible. They are crisp and delicious! A visit to Narragansett just isn't complete without a stop at the Portside! read more

Definitely worth a try! the clam chowder was really good one of the better ones I've tried in the area! The restaurant was just across the street from Port Judith - we ended our day from visiting Block Island by having dinner here! The line was pretty long but we did go on a Friday night after getting off of the ferry. The line took a bit to get through and waiting on the food as well so be prepared to have a wait read more

Made a stop after an afternoon at the beach for a light dinner so chowder, clam cakes and stuffed quahogs it is! Boston clam chowder was thick and creamy and lots of clams very good. Clam cakes also cooked to protection. The quahogs were ok but I would like more seasoning/flavor. The service was nice and helpful. The place has in/out door seating. I will be back to try other things I spotted people enjoying around me. read more

Got the cheeseburger platter. Chips/fries were great, the coleslaw was mid, but the burgers were inedible. The cheese was slapped on the bun cold, the burger patties tasted as if the had been dunked in liquid smoke and skip the lettuce as it's hunks of iceberg which cause the whole sandwich to fall apart. The chowder is water milky kind - also inedible. Overpriced as well. 2 4 oz. Cheeseburgers, decent amount of fries and a tablespoon of coleslaw for $19.93. Menu price $16.95 actually charged $18.45. read more

Jimmy's Port Side - I had already eaten several before taking the pic! - Seafood Near Me - Narragansett, Rhode Island

Food is delicious. I'm not a seafood person so I had a Caesar salad with chicken which was delicious! House made dressing with big chunks of Parmesan and grilled chicken. Hubby got the lobster roll which was one of the best he's ever had. The reason it's only 3 stars is it was Mother's Day and we waited 2 hours in line. The line barely moved. This was from the edge of property to the counter. Place is clean, food delicious, but I doubt we will return due to how slow the service is. Parking on site, if you go just have the time to wait. Also there is a service fee for credit cards. $3 6 clam cakes, Cesar salad with chicken $23 and lobster roll $36 was about $80. Pricey but yummy. If we had not waited forever I think we would have been happier. read more

We were by the pier that had the ferry to Block island and decided to grab some lunch. There was a pretty long line to place your order but it did move along ok. I ordered the fish and chip special which was fresh cod deep fried with coleslaw and fries.. My wife got the fish sandwich which was also cod. Both were delicious and the portion size of mine was huge!!! Couldn't finish it all in one sitting . I also got the Narragansett beer with it to wash down . read more

If you can actually get the food it's not bad. I've only been able to once. We travel to the island frequently and have tried three times to call and order so it's ready to take on the boat. You'd think given their location, that would be an option. They advertise Gluten Free seafood, so for someone with a gluten allergy it's something I've wanted to get. Today I had my celiac mother with me for her first time out and we were excited to get GF seafood. - Once, last summer, I put in an online order and was notified it was cancelled. - Next time, last summer, I tried to call an order and they told me they were too busy and hung up. -Today I tried again. I called and asked to put in an order. The woman on the phone said, "what are you trying to order?" I said, "an order of gluten free fish and chips." Her response? "You're going to have to order at the window, we're not busy. I can't put an order in unless it's $65." I drove by on the way to park and there wasn't a soul there. Clearly they didn't need my business for the $30+ order of fish and chips. Maybe they need to advertise that they don't actually take call ahead/online orders unless they feel like it or it meets a minimum? read more

3.5 to 4 Stars Eight of us came here for the first time while on our annual vacation in Narragansett, RI. No reservations accepted. Private parking lot is nice. The outside tented eating area was very nice, but we opted to eat inside. The clean dining room was bright and breezy with several open windows. The restaurant is across the street from the Fast Ferry to Block Island and we could see the ferry. You order at a window and food is delivered if you are inside or handed to you if you are eating outside or picking up. The line moved quickly. My SILs helped bring the food to our table The menu is well organized. I was surprised it included veal parm and chicken Parm. Our order included: Drinks--Frozen Margarita, Narragansett beer and a Mudslide. Shore Dinner for my husband. It included a 1 1/4 pound lobster, many steamed clams, chowder, clam cakes and a stuffy. I was surprised it did not include corn on cob or a couple potatoes. It was about $60 which was fair. Salmon dinner which was delicious. My daughter wanted cocktail sauce. She went to window and was told it was 50 cents. She did not have money on her, so she did not get any. Seems kinda of tacky to me since our bill before tip was $320. Local Cod stuffed with seafood dinner was a generous portion. Very tasty. I selected a tossed salad side. Calamari and sea scallops lightly fried dinner. The scallops were very large, and the calamari was tender. Great choice. Calamari app. had canned mushrooms which was a turn off and way too many warm banana peppers. It was nothing special. The kids got burgers and fries which were good. The two year old enjoyed spaghetti with red sauce. We brought our trash to the can. The bathrooms were clean. Pets are welcome while eating outside. Overall, we like Champlain's down the street better. read more

If your catching the boat to Block Island or heading back from Block Island you gotta include this place in your plans. The Lobster Bisque can not be passed by. If you just want a snack you can do that too. They have a walk up window and plenary of outdoor and indoor seating. Sometimes we just get a drink and clam cakes or onion rings. Very casual. We love sitting on the patio with a cool breeze. read more

This place never disappoints! My must go to spot. Everything I've tried is delectable. From the lazy man lobster (to die for) to the baked stuffed lobster (out of this world)- I cant get enough. I have also tried the shrimp cocktail, lobster bisque, & clam cakes- all fantastic. I saw someone get a cheeseburger and even that looked delicious! read more

On vacation from NY. This place looked better on line. It was just ok. Nothing bad or great. The live music was too loud (and not really good). These places where you have to order at the window and go find a not so clean picnic table to sit at (if you can find one) are all over the place. The seafood was nothing special It was mostly fried but I'm learning that's to be expected here in RI. I definitely think it was over priced for the quality of the food. The portions were decent but it's just way too much fried food. Would be better to charge a little less for smaller portions this way folks can try new and different things. Would love to stumble on a really good place. This one was just ok. read more

Only giving it 3 stars because my husbands lobster roll was great but the RI Chowder was horrible, should be called potato chowder, not a clam in sight. We ordered two orders of coleslaw but it came in one cup forcing us to share... they assumed that we were ok with sharing out of the same cup. There was fighting between the window person and the kitchen with f-bombs dropping which was very uncomfortable. Definitely not impressed at for a first time visitor. read more

Had the best lobster roll. Pretty sure I paid an exorbitant amount. But after being repeatedly disappointed by other lobster rolls, I can say this one was darn near perfect. Just gotta save my Pennie's for the next one. BTW. Don't go looking for ambiance. There is none. But it's clean and service is nice. read more

Only reason to go here is if you're getting the ferry and that is just fine. Serve yourself and grab a table. The pours are stiff and the food is fried. Not a bad way to start vacation but certainly pricier than the quality. read more

You can't go wrong here for a seafood overload! The freshest catch everyday! The baked cod STUFFED with clams, scallops, lobster is absolutely delicious and can feed 3 people! The summer calamari is my favorite-- fresh calamari accompanied by grape tomatoes, red onion, banana peppers and drizzled with a balsamic glaze is so good! It's a little pricey, but so worth it! The views of Narragansett Sound are beautiful, especially at sunset! read more

True Score: 4 Stars Thankful This review is to thank Jimmy's for being the first establishment we visited after being stuck in the house for two of the due to COVID. They have a great outdoor setup right near the ocean and served us cocktails to drunk outdoors (socially distancing of course). The drinks were great and the food was pretty good too. We had a fish and chip and fried scallops. The seafood was fresh and prepared well. Throw in a little tar tar sauce and we were extremely satisfied. Thank you Jimmy's for saving our sanity. We'll of course be back. Thanks read more

I've driven by here hundreds of times and never had the inkling to try it. I'm loyal to another joint up the road to the right but I figured I'd give Jimmy a whirl. A solid lobster roll with lots of claws jammed into a tasty hot dog bun in a classic take on the fave sandwich. They threw some old bay seasoning on top which made it a tad bit too salty but still... good stuff! I was actually excited for the dry batter fish and chips but so irked that the fish was loaded with teeny bones. I love fish but I'm phobic about getting bones. The flounder was fresh and the batter was light and crispy but ohhhh dem bones! Big portion, but I would not order again. The clam cakes were sub par. I had to hunt for clams and they were very dense not fluffy and light. Clam strips? I mean. To me, that's not really "clams" but they were good if you like the strip only experience a la Howard Johnson's back in the day. They did serve up a decent frozen mudslide. Surcharged me a bit for using a credit card. Bummer but the price of doing business as a restaurant has its cost, I guess. I don't really feel like their prices reflected CASH payment but their fee was visible on the menu board. I would say yes to another lobster roll, no old bay, and be on my way elsewhere for other menu items. read more

Lobster bisque has to be hands down the BEST evaaaaa. Loads of lobster creamy with a hint of sherry. I'm telling you to run don't walk to grab a cup of this over the top flavorful bisque. Is it pricey? Yup and it's worth every mouthful! read more

The best sea scallops I have ever eaten. There was enough food for three meals. The food wasn't greasy and you can tell they use fresh oil! It was a bit pricey but I don't mind paying for high quality food. read more

Took 45 min in a not a long line. They only have one speed which isn't a good thing. Food wasn't even worth the wait. I've had better.

This is the first joint you hit on the way through the main drag at Point Judith/Galilee. Right across from the Block Island Ferry. I needed an RI chowder and clamcake fix and this did the trick. The clamcakes were very tasty - some places are just bread fried next to a place where a clam once sat but these had clam pieces and had a great clam taste! The chowder was a bit of a variant in that they added cream, but also tasted good. The takeout window was hopping and there is plenty of outdoor seating. As with all the places in this area - watch out for seagulls - make sure your convertible top is up! read more

Jimmy's Port Side Restaurant has the best swordfish anywhere. The swordfish is fresh and cooked properly. It is served fresh and moist. You can't find swordfish better than here. The fried fish is also the best. They serve fresh flounder has their fish and chips. You won't find a better restaurant anywhere which serves fresh fish than here. Ron N. read more

Great pasta and clam sauce , seafood fra diavolo, clam casinos with seafood stuffing, is a must. Don't forget the clear chowder or the lobster bisque. My recommended place to eat in Galilee. Go hungry because the portions are large read more

I had the 1/2 lazy man's lobster with sweet potato fries. The fries were excellent not greasy. The lobster was very good and fresh. My husband had the calamari. He said, it was excellent the best he's had. We would go back and try other things on the menu. The only downside is this place is very expensive and bring plenty of cash because there is a service fee if you use a card. It is however posted right on the counter where you order. read more

This place is always solid for clam cakes and chowder. Nice seating at the outside bar. Easy in, easy out.

Food is consistently good at Jimmy's . I especially like that the fish and chips is made with flounder . It is my favorite although I did have a lobster roll recently and Jimmy accommodated my request to hold the mayo which made my day since I don't do mayo. My husband usually orders fried clams and clear chowder and he's never been disappointed . read more

Sorry but quality has dropped. Forced to order at the window due to no service inside at the stripped down tables.

I was really impressed with my dinner here. We came here for my sons father birthday & we ordered dinner and drinks. We got shrimp cocktail and calamari to start. The shrimp cocktail and calamari was equally delicious and was much better- I mean worlds away BETTER then the $60 shrimp cocktail I had gotten the night earlier at 41 North in Newport. The calamari was just as good- I couldn't get over how good it was! Fresh & delicious. We all equally loved our meals. I had surprisingly never heard of this place so I was pleasantly surprised with how good it was. The drinks were equally good! My son also enjoyed his meal as well! The service was great too. It was actually really busy on the outdoor patio- partly because it was a beautiful night I am sure. I will DEFINITELY be back! read more

It is what it is and it's good. Great location. Solid food will not disappoint. Fun vibe
