Food was delicious and the Special they were having was crazy amazing...$20 you get a side salad or soup, 3 choices (burrito, enchilada, taquitos, tacos, etc) with rice and beans. The food was delicious and the portions were huge! The customer service was great and I'm so glad we gave this little restaurant a chance. If you're in the area your should definitely give it a go.

I came here on a Friday to try the menudo, and honestly, it was just mediocre. I’m not sure if it was freshly made that day or a warmed-up batch, but it didn’t stand out. The beans and salsa were the highlight, but the flautas were so drenched in oil they were nearly inedible.

Service was friendly and attentive, but I did notice that the staff seemed to be all men, which felt unusual compared to most restaurants.

Overall, I wasn’t impressed with the food and won’t be returning. There are much better options elsewhere

Casa Jimenez was so good! The chips and salsa were a perfect beginning to a great meal!! The Abondigas Soup was served in a large bowl and was hot and yummy...full of meatballs and fresh vegetables.

I ordered a plate, instead of more meat 🍖 it was basically guacamole, rice , beans, for $26! What a complete circus 🎪, mickey mouse 🐭 🐁 restaurants. Never again. I've had the same plate in different places and way cheaper more meat! Avoid casa Jimenez ladies and gentlemen all a joke

Stopped by this restaurant on a whim after visiting Roger Dunn, wasn’t quite sure what to expect. The space felt inviting, to my delight, we were welcomed with complimentary starter chips and salsa that were scrumptious! The chips were perfectly crisp, and we enjoyed both the spicy and mild salsas—they were packed with flavor and set a great tone for our meal.
We arrived around noon, and I was pleased to see a variety of everyday specials, including enticing lunch deals. I decided to try the two hard-shelled tacos paired with a shredded beef burrito, while my partner opted for the lunch special flautas. The presentation was appealing, and I could see that care was taken in the dish assembly.
However, there was a significant downside: the food itself lacked seasoning. Despite the vibrant ingredients and potential for flavor, the dishes tasted rather bland, which was disappointing and unfortunately brought my rating down by a star. A dash of spice or seasoning would elevate these dishes to match the ambiance and overall quality of the service, which, I must say, was excellent!
Our server was attentive and friendly, making our dining experience pleasant. I’m definitely looking forward to returning and giving this place another shot!

I like the lengua and beans w onions and cilantro burrito. It feeds me 2 lunches which is reasonable price wise at about $8 per lunch. They have really good food.
