Reviews for Jim's Family Restaurant in Halifax, NS
I have enjoyed coming here for years! They have friendly staff and very clean tables, so that is very important! Prices are... reasonable and the view of the Bedford Basin is really nice as well. I would say the noise level is average, not really quiet orloud, right in the middle. With a wide variety of yummy foods to try, if you find yourself hungry and in the Halifax area, Iwould certainly recommend trying this place! Read more
If you?re looking for a hearty dinner with a combination of pastas and seafood selections this is a great spot. It?s that old... family restaurant type feel. Unfortunately when we walked in no one was there to greet us. The women at the counter remained onthe phone and kept her head down. I asked if we should seat ourselves or stand and look around. The feeling of being aninconvenience in someone?s day. Luckily the waitress whom came to our table after we seated ourselves saved our impression witha kind smile. The menu has a number of selections depending on your appetite or what you fancy. We ordered a few differentthings off the menu each to meet our taste buds. The food was alright the saying, ?you get what you paid for.? would come tomind. The clams were a hit in the way they were prepared and definitely what we were looking for. The fish and chips were moreoil and batter, having to play hide and seek to find the fish within the batter. The end result was it was filling, and a hitand miss. Sadly the smell of oil as you leave stays on your clothes and you are reminder of your dinner. Not being from thenarea i guess one could say it was a free souvenir. Read more

We had a good time here reuniting with some old friends and this was a pretty good to do so. The food was pretty good but... nothing special. The fried foods were a bit soggy and the wait times were a bit long but the waitress was friendly and patientwith us. Read more
A very casual dining experience. I ordered the seafood platter and the donair plate. The sweet potato fries were too soft and... limp imo and didn't have enough crunch; perhaps double frying would help do the trick. The donair plate was pretty good althougha little confusing to eat with the pita sitting under all the meat. Did you want me to roll it? There was too much meat toreasonably roll though, so I'm not sure. The seafood platter was decently fried up, although I was a little confused when thehaddock did not come fried as with the rest of the plate. I will say that the most positive thing was the portion sizes whichwere huge. The staff and service were also great ???????????? Jim's Restaurant is a solid experience for me. Read more
Always love the food here..and always a great option for food. Good prices.. friendly staff awesome food
Sea salt fries were the best thing that night, wish the server would have recommended we all get them. Fish was decent, tartar... sauce wasn?t overpowering. Nachos were ok. Calamari was rubbery, nacho salsa was a bit watery, donair burger meat was bland,poutine gravy was pretty bland as well and I think they used shredded mozzarella. Read more
