Jimmy V's Osteria & Bar

Awesome Time at Jimmy V's – Noelle Made Our Night!

Just had dinner at Jimmy V's Oysteria and Bar, and wow, what a great experience! Honestly, a huge part of that was thanks to our server, Noelle.

From the moment we sat down, she was just fantastic. So friendly and on top of everything, without being pushy at all. She really knew her stuff when it came to the menu and gave us some awesome recommendations that we absolutely loved. You know when someone just makes you feel genuinely taken care of? That was Noelle. She was always there right when we needed her, and everything came out perfectly.

Beyond just the great service, Noelle has this really warm, easygoing vibe that made our whole evening so much more enjoyable. It's clear she really enjoys what she does and genuinely wants you to have a good time. The food was delicious as always, but Noelle truly made the difference and elevated the whole experience.

If you're heading to Jimmy V's, definitely try to get a table with Noelle. She's a rockstar and absolutely made our visit memorable. Can't wait to go back!

We had a wonderful experience at the restaurant! The atmosphere was lovely, and the food was delicious. A special thank you to Noelle, our server — she was incredibly kind, attentive, and professional. She made us feel truly welcome and took care of every detail with a warm smile. Her service made our visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Bartender was awesome. Super busy but made time to chat and was just very thoughtful. Great drinks, too

We were in an extreme heatwave in the city and we escaped into Jimmy V’s for dinner and the food and service was on point. Trevor, our waiter was so professional, friendly, and cognizant (such a refreshing trait in today’s culinary atmosphere)to our needs.i felt so informed yet not pushed to make my decision which allowed me to truly make the best choice. I ended up pairing a lovely salad with figs- i would never have tried but after collaborating with Trevor who saw my angst I did get them on the side and then added them to my palate. Absolutely delicious. A lovely wine with soup completed my experience however, it was the continuous, attentive caring that Trevor exuded. He moved with with ease amongst many tables and your establishment is a great attribute to the downtown vibe. Thank you. Carol Ann

Overall, I wasn't very impressed. The food was good, but not anything I haven't had elsewhere. We got our apps quickly, but then our salads took a while to get. It almost felt like we were forgotten about. The service wasn't bad, but at times could have been better.

First let me just start off by saying it was my first time ever coming to Raleigh for a concert show and I’m staying at the Sheraton Hotel and I was trying to decide what I was going to eat. Me and my buddies stumbled upon Jimmy V’s. Not only were the employees welcoming but the food was very tasty. Our server Trevor was so helpful when it came to the menu. He recommended the Fried Calamari for our appetizers and the NY Strip I had was really good. My buddy Eric loved the wings. Now back to our server, I’ve been to my fair share of restaurants and experienced the good and bad with servers but Trevor was so nice and welcoming. Next visit to Raleigh I will be coming back. Thanks again for a great experience.

Hi so I'm very disappointed in the service and quality of the food service here. I showed up and ordered within 10 minutes at 5:45 and an hour later at 6:45, food had not been served. And when it finally was it was dry and cold. This place was not even half full and it was full staff. They also gave me the wrong drink. I had to leave before I was even served food due to an event I had scheduled. My family had also made reservations a week prior. Very disappointing

Amazing food.

great atmosphere and terrific service by Noela. We had a late afternoon family party and it was enjoyable. The Pizza and salads were very good but 2 of us were disappointed with our sandwiches being more bread than chicken. we would go again!

The food was really good. We notice their sanitation rating was an 88 and hesitated for a second but since the restaurant was packed decided to give it a try. Honestly I'm glad we did. The food had an excellent flavor (we had the chicken fettuccine and the salmon) and the portions we perfect. There's a lot of reasons a restaurant can get dinged and I'm glad we were willing to give it a try.

First time and We loved it !! walking distance to performing arts center . We were so happy to be seated at the large round table in a private lovely little nook. James took excellent care of all 6 ladies and eric. we ordered alot of misc food and shared . i had fried calamari/shrimp misto and margarita pizza . my friends forager pizza was amazing. garlic wings , shrimp/chicken alfredo —-great martinis , great atmosphere,and again James was awesome and we will ask for him next visit.

The service was great. The food was okay but the wings were not well made. Pizza was just okay.

The food came out swiftly but our waiter was absolutely terrible. He barely spoke to me and my husband. He was more interested in just standing there holding a conversation with the host. The manager was very pleasant. My wings were overcooked but the white burger my husband ordered and the forager pizza I ordered was delicious. Even when I needed the bill and Togo box the manager had to bring those things and when our waiter brought back the check he just dropped it on the table and left. I can understand if we were some difficult customers but we are always so chill and there to enjoy food. Our experience was MEH!

Terrible experience, first time here. We were seated at a few minutes before reservation time but waited 25 minutes to receive side salads & then hour and 15 minutes to get our entrees. Obviously the staff could not handle the larger group tables & our party of two efficiently. My mojito had brown gross mint leaves, yuck. The chicken piccata was delicious. Our server ignored us probably because she had nothing to say but checking in would have maybe made us feel welcome.

We were not happy to see the 88 restaurant rating at check in for our 6pm reservation. But we stayed. We went for our son‘s 21st birthday. I ordered the fig flatbread. I was not pleased with it only ate a few bites, and the rest of our meals were smash meatball sandwich was pretty good, the Jimmy V pizza was OK, the chicken parmesan sandwich was just OK and the birthday boy enjoyed his spaghetti and meatballs. We've been two other times and enjoyed that much better.
