this place is surrounded by locals! we thought it was great! have to make a reservation prior to comming. the front desk had to... turn away like 20 people, shame... lots of lost potential. atmosphere was great. not too sure how it is on the weekend. we werethere on a monday. Service was good. a little slow but good. the bar man kept forgetting about us. the food was ok. could havebeen fantastic. I had the chicken fetucini alfredo. the pasta was slightly over still had a little bite to it. the sauce wasamazing tasted home made not canned. the vegetables were cooked to perfection! the chicken.... well this is where they loose me.the chicken was way overcooked! had great taste but it was overcooked. the dish as a whole was missing some seasoning butoverall the food was ok. great atmosphere and good service.

Good food and service. Prices are on the higher side. My steak was cooked perfect for my taste.
Jim's Bisto has THE BEST burger in town... Raging Bull Burger is my favorite. Now, they don't just have burgers but fantastic... steaks as well. Great spot for business lunches and evening dinners. Read more
Was able to get an outside table. It was very relaxing, service was good, and food was delicious. I had the pot pie (very good)... and my husband had the beef stroganoff (he thought it was delicious). Read more
The service at Jim?s Bistro was subpar at best. Our waitress was almost always nowhere to be found. We asked twice for butter... for our rolls and waited twenty minutes for it to come. Several times our drinks were empty for long periods of time beforerefilled. We then waited over an hour and a half for our entrees to came. The burgers were over cooked, the fish and chips wasmostly fried batter. The lettuce that came with the burgers was wilted and turning brown. The steak fries were undercooked andstill raw. The roasted chicken was good but definitely not worth 28 dollars. The meal was one hundred percent overpriced for thequality. We definitely will not be back. Read more
Overall high class place with great food. The appetizers, spinach artichoke dip and calamari were pretty good. Catfish was good.... Great outdoor atmosphere. Excellent, experienced server. Overall great experience. Read more
First visit was pretty disappointing. We really enjoyed the calamari. And the waiter was very nice. But everything else was a... let down for the price point. I do not recommend the French onion soup- too much pepper. The Brittany style salad was an upcharge for crumbled bacon that was not cooked up fresh and warm as advertised. The scallops were ok- but some were gritty andthey sauce was very sweet and syrupy. Read more
Top notch food and service. Really enjoyed a great meal. Dry aged steaks and the Rainbow trout was fantastic as well. Calamari... is highly recommended as a starter. Read more
