| - Two reviews in one here...
First, the restaurant is great, the staff is friendly and the food is excellent. On my first visit, I had the Chicken Limone. Absolutely delicious. That meal made sure I'd be back.
Fast forward about 7 months and I am home on extended sick leave but trying to plan our wedding reception. Having canceled our wedding plans once due to illness, then eloping, my fiance and I knew there was no way we could cancel the reception too. So...I am at home on the computer trying to figure out where we could get food. And Jimmy's came up in a search. Checked out their catering menu online (thank you SO much for having online menus!) and seeing how reasonable the prices are, my husband and I arranged to meet a friend at Jimmy's to try some options.
We chose to try:
-- Cavatelli with Vodka Sauce
-- Sausage with Peppers and Potatoes
-- Eggplant Parmigiana
The cavatelli was eyes-rolling-back-in-your-head delicious. I had chosen this to try because I originally wanted gnocchi but that wasn't offered on the catering menu. So I picked this as a possible substitute and it was amazing! I was willing to fight my husband and our friend to eat all the cavatelli we were sampling.
My husband's pick was the sausage, peppers and potatoes. He is definitely a meat and potatoes kind of guy and this entree fit the bill. The sausage was mildly seasoned, the peppers and potatoes were cooked just right. Yum!
We chose the eggplant parmigiana for a more traditional Italian dish and I'm so glad we did. No bitterness to the eggplant, the tomato sauce was excellent and how can you go wrong with mozzarella cheese all over it?
We ended up ordering all three for our reception. The cost of the trays included racks to put them on, Sterno to keep the food hot and serving utensils. For less than $250, we had enough food to serve about 40 people. What a value!
When my husband went to pick the food up the day of the reception, it was all ready and waiting for him, in fact he said the staff was right there with it so quickly. One of my worst fears was that he'd have to wait for it and we were on a tight time line to have him pick up the food, the cake, the keg, etc.
Our guests LOVED the food. The star of the night was definitely the cavatelli but everything was just wonderful.
I was even glad that we had a few no-shows for the reception because we had leftovers to enjoy for a few days afterward.
This has proven to me that I could eat Jimmy's food every day of the week and still want more.
Thank you so much, Jimmy's!
