Jimmy's Famous American Tavern offers a lively atmosphere with tables overlooking the marina. While parking requires a fee, the environment is full of energy. Reservations are recommended on weekends, especially Saturday nights. The menu features delicious options like the Spicy burger, described as tasty with a super spicy kick, and the French Dip is noted as a close second. The clam chowder is a highlight, and service is typically wonderful, often spectacular with amazing waiters who are helpful in giving food recommendations. The brisket sandwich was a table favorite, and portions are big. Other delicious items include the fish tacos and the Nashville Fried chicken sandwich. The house-made potato chips are also very delicious. While the tuna sandwich was not to one diner's liking, the overall experience is highly recommended. Happy hour provides good prices and service, though drinks may arrive at different times. Guests have enjoyed the swordfish, claiming it is grilled to perfection. The restaurant also offers immediate seating and the chance to sit outside with a harbor view, enhancing the dining experience.
