Tag BrumJune 16, 2013Welcome to Greenpoint, Jimmy's! Come for brunch or a drink, but mostly come for the tater tots! They're awesome and you should eat them! Awesome friendly staff and and amazing location. Don't miss out
Jim TaylorApril 9, 2015Jimmy’s is ideal If you’re craving no-fuss comfort food and a non-pretentious setting to throw it down. Their beer selection is solid, the burgers are renowned and the portions sizes large. Read more
EvanJune 25, 2013The tots are dope, but they're not what you're expecting. They're golden orbs of mashed potato and crack. At brunch, I recommend Un-vegetarianizing the vegetable hash with a side of crazy-thick bacon.
Meghan FlannerySeptember 24, 2013Ordered 2 beers and the tater heaven. Tater tots were awesome. Planned to get 2 more beers and pie, but received the check before we said we were ready to go or asked if we wanted anything else.
Zachary MartzJanuary 6, 2017Good neighborhood staple. Get the burger at dinner and the Benedict for brunch. Coffee is good also!
David GuerrieriAugust 14, 2016This place is a hidden gem in Greenpoint, we couldn't get into our usual spot and thank the heavens for that because we found our new favorite breakfast spot! Get the Tater Heaven!
Usually don't have to wait for a table here unlike the other Jimmy's. Which means I don't have to wait as along for their amazing TATER HEAVEN.
AliceAugust 20, 2013The decor is cool and laid back. The food was so yummy and amazing. I want to eat pulled pork everyday
The fried chicken sandwich was incredible. The fries were perfectly seasoned. And Flamin' Groovies playing in the background...awesome.
Stina P.December 17, 2016The fried chicken sandwich is slathered in Frank's hot sauce and one of the best in the city! Very cozy spot
The Jimmys (taters) are a delicious and unique addition to the menu. I'm a huge fan of their cheese grits. Tater Heaven never disappoints.
MackinnonMarch 23, 2013Great find. Low key, lovely food, great service. Homemade bread and butter will change your world. Try the Son of a Gun Cocktail and the suckling pig.
Love this place. The food is excellent, the staff is friendly and don't make you feel like they're doing you a favour (Brooklyn label, I'm looking at you)
Cooper SmithJune 15, 2013Love the tater heaven. Taters, onions, scrambled cheese, guac, and pepper jack cheese.
Zack KantorMay 14, 2016The tots here are literally next level, also the kale salad is tasty and the fried chicken sandwich is choice
pinsuda sagooleimJuly 9, 2012T.O.N.Y article says to try the shareable plates - duck confit terrine, scallop ceviche, broccoli rabe and potatoes, and carrots with forbidden rice.
peter kafkaApril 14, 2013Either place got tamer since NYT write up, or NYT got light-headed crossing east river. Anyway, v. good, pretty straight ahead with a few tweaks - "pork neck" v "pork chop", but basically same thing.
Karthik RamanAugust 16, 2014Amazing breakfast, brunch, lunch options. Try the veggie hash for some fresh produce and great eggs
François SurcinJanuary 19, 2012"Fall of man" cocktail amazing, but ask to switch the original vodka to FAIR. Vodka one, gives it such an amazing taste and character.
Manda ShettletonJuly 13, 2014Really great happy hour! Sat outside and shared catfish entree with friend. We were full. CASH ONLY.
Cracking good milkshakes. Peanut butter and the key line pie special are the best.
Breakfast all day! try the pulled pork hash. Also, milkshakes.
Tatiana OrlovDecember 28, 2011oxtail. pork belly in bacon broth. brussel sprouts with pork rinds. a kick-ass date to hang with. sold.
Ask for the bartender Jessie, I heard that dude was basically the back bone of the Onion.
Kika GMarch 11, 2012The duck confit, brussel sprouts, scallop ceviche and oxtail arepa are must haves
Beth VogelsangOctober 24, 2011Crispy Pig Ear is delicious! Portion is large enough for a table of 3 or 4 to share.
Henry is delightful, Alexis is amazing. Just order whatever they tell you to.
Elisabeth PrestonMay 27, 2013Shrimp salad is delicious, and the service is sweet. Great place for a lazy Sunday meal.
Used to have the best fish n' grits but seem to have changed menus or chef. :/
The tots are doughy and dense. Completely unexpected and not really appreciated. Chicken fingers and kale ceasar were pretty quality, though
- The breakfast burrito will cure all your ills. ALL OF THE ILLS.
Melissa TorresSeptember 30, 2011The scallop ceviche was great. Everything is overpriced but very good.
Biazzro that 4sq just let's you change place names. Calyer is no longer here as of 5/12/13. Sad I found this out on my bday.
- Food is great. Servers are nice… but consistently shitty service. Definitely wouldn't come here if the food wasn't so good.
