The $10 Bypass Salad was underwhelming--mostly shredded lettuce with very little else, and definitely not worth the price. The wings seemed baked instead of fried and were overly drenched in sauce, which took away from the flavor and texture. My burger was decent and probably the highlight of the meal, but the fries fell short and didn't complement it well. Service also seemed a bit off. We shared our disappointment with our waitress, but there wasn't really any acknowledgment or response, which added to the overall experience. Based on this visit, it's hard to justify a return

So expect a bit of a wait on some days (especially weekends). They have a very generous delivery area, which is great for anyone who doesn't have time to run in and wait for an order. The hubs likes the meatball sub. We both like the Philly (chicken or steak). I recently caught on to the fact that they have good burgers, so it's been a go-to as of late. But I also tried the Grilled Pastrami & Swiss on Rye, which is simple yet really freaking tasty (the butteriness of the rye bread is sooooo good). We sometimes share some steak fries with cheese, but we ALWAYS get a couple of cookies. They're fresh and fabulous! There's a reason this spot has been around literally my entire life. If you're a Chesapeakean, you know why. If you're new here, ya gotta go and find out why.

I stopped by Mister Jim's in Chesapeake and unfortunately, my experience fell far short of…read moreexpectations. I ordered a Philly cheesesteak and was told upfront that it would be about a 20-minute wait on the grill, which I was completely fine with. But after 50 minutes had passed, I finally had to go up and ask about my order. When I finally got my food, it was clear things were not handled well. The fries were made immediately and left sitting in a closed Styrofoam container the entire time my sub was cooking. By the time I received them, they were a soggy, wet pile of fries with zero crisp left. As for the sub itself, it was about 90% bread and maybe 10% actual filling. It took three hard, crusty bites before I even reached any meat--and when I did, the flavor was disappointing and lackluster. Definitely not what I expected from a place known for subs. Their "Italian dressing" is really just a ton of oil with a tiny splash of vinegar. They should just call it what it is instead of something misleading. To top it off, I had to ask someone to wipe the table before sitting because it wasn't cleaned. Overall, this visit was a miss from start to finish. Long wait, soggy fries, a flavorless sub, and unclear menu descriptions. I really hope they improve consistency and quality, because my experience did not match the reputation they seem to have

A dinner at Court House Cafe in the Great Bridge section of Chesapeake is a reminder of why certain…read morelocal institutions endure. Consistency--both in the kitchen and in the dining room--has made this longtime favorite a reliable choice for those who value substance over flash. The service reflects that same steadiness. The staff is welcoming, attentive, and knowledgeable without being overbearing--always ready with thoughtful suggestions for anyone navigating the menu. I began with the garden salad, a straightforward but well-executed mix of fresh greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, and sweet Vidalia onions, finished with housemade croutons and a balanced balsamic vinaigrette. It's a simple dish done right, which sets the tone for what follows. The she-crab soup--an award-winning staple--delivers exactly what you hope for in a classic rendition. Rich, velvety, and deeply satisfying, it's best enjoyed in a cup unless you plan on making it the centerpiece of your meal. For the entrée, the French Dip stands out as a clear highlight. Built on a soft roll and filled with thinly sliced prime rib--slow-roasted to achieve both tenderness and depth of flavor--it's served with a properly seasoned au jus that brings the entire sandwich together. It's a dish that leans on quality ingredients and careful execution rather than unnecessary embellishment, and it succeeds because of it. Court House Café continues to earn its reputation the right way: consistent food, thoughtful service, and an atmosphere that feels rooted in the community it serves. In a dining landscape often chasing trends, this is a place that understands the value of doing the fundamentals exceptionally well--and doing them every time.

I may sound bias because I'm from Great Bridge but I consider myself a connoisseur of sandwiches…read moreand one of my favorite sandwiches is a pastrami reuben. Court House Cafe's reuben is THE best reuben sandwich I've ever had. The pastrami is tender and doesn't get caught up in between your teeth like other places and just enough sauerkraut to not be overbearing. The steak fries are always hot and crisp. My only gripe is that I prefer Heinz ketchup with my fries which they do not have. The service is always top notch and the girls there are always friendly. My drink was never empty. Now, wait times may vary but it is worth the wait.

I was on the search for a burger, and happened upon this place…read more It has a classic diner feel to it and there is a big enough menu to warrant at least a few more visits. There are multiple TVs playing at the same time, all different channels too. I thought that was interesting. There are pictures of cars everywhere and photos of people with their cars on the wall. I really enjoyed the cheeseburger and fries. (they write little messages on top of the buns. I'm just glad the one on mine wasn't rude or anything.) The banana pudding was really good too. The sweet tea was good enough for more than one refill. My server was very nice and seemed to be working hard. The place seemed clean. As it is, they are proudly "women-owned" and I think that's pretty cool. Cars, food, and chicks. Definitely a win-win-win for any dude out there that's into that stuff. Some of the older gentlemen at one of the tables near me tonight were certainly letting their voices be heard and not all of them were nice. So maybe there aren't that many left. One of them decided to go behind the counter and play with the dirty dishes. I'm not exactly sure what his deal was. Only complaints: the bathroom was gender-neutral, which could cause problems and just makes me feel uncomfortable, personally. It's also a one-person deal, which is a double-edged sword at best. And behind a couple of the booths, in the corner of the dining room, there is a play area set up for whom I assume are small children. That could get intrusive and annoying if it's a busy day. It seems really out of place and unnecessary. Especially when there are creepy dolls, Mini-Walmart shopping carts, and a full pretend kitchen set that gives off an "anything you can do, I can do better" vibe. If there are any friendly competitions between the cook and the kids on who can prepare a better meal in the future, I wouldn't be surprised. There are also lots of ads and photos printed onto the tables, which makes it very awkward to eat your food while a bunch of faces are staring back up at you. I just put stuff over the creepy images while I'm there, which is what I recommend if it bothers you as well. However, they did have little packs of marmalade at each table, so I'll be back for sure.
