   The outdoor patio is awesome. Carpeted and not too noisy. The carrot cake had a strong taste of nutmeg. This place used to be packed. What happened?

   We've been to Jimmy O&d a few times now and it's never disappointed us. The New booths are a wonderful!

   Seemed understaffed. But isn't everyone? The Bang Bang shrimp tacos and burgers are a must try. Both are superb!

   Unfortunately we didn't have a great experience for our first time, not sure if I'll go back. Our waitress wasn't anywhere to be found at the beginning so the hostess had to start our drink orders which was really nice of her. We got martinis, which we're ok, a little weak in my opinion. We both ordered the filet mignon sliders, which the hostess said were her favorite, so we were excited, but they were terrible. Both of ours were WELL DONE. It was dry and hard to chew, which is disgraceful for Filet Mignon and for $22, I was extremely disappointed. Now I'm not sure if this was the cook or the waitress' fault to be honest. Once I bit into it, I realized she never asked us "how we wanted it done"; since it's steak, usually they ask. THEN, we noticed on the bill that the sliders were ordered WELL DONE! Who wants Filet Mignon Well done?! Overall, disappointed for my first time, might give them another try. The outdoor patio was really nice. :)

   I'm really sorry to hear about your disappointing experience on your first visit. It sounds like there were some serious missteps, especially with the lack of attention from your waitress and the unfortunate mix-up with your order. Filet mignon sliders should be a highlight, not a letdown, and it's disappointing to hear they weren't prepared to your liking. It's understandable to feel unsure about giving us another chance, but it's good to hear that you found the outdoor patio enjoyable. If you do decide to return, maybe consider mentioning your previous experience to ensure a smoother dining experience next time.

   Five of us ladies had dinner on the patio. It’s really charming and well tended. I had the ribeye steak sandwich which was very good and tender, the beer batter fries are crazy good. Others had creamy chicken mushrooms, crab cakes, pork chop and Philly sandwich; everyone was happy with the food. The ladies room was clean and modern. Our server, Caitlyn, went above and beyond taking care of us. The only con was that the drink prices are high, luckily we were there when they were on special for $9.00. I’m surprised it wasn’t busier, I’ll definitely be back.

   Dined outside on their patio on this beautiful day but their servers came out on the patio for their smoke breaks. Cheesecake was disappointing & bill was almost $90 for 2 people who had burgers & 3 drinks for dinner.

    Fabulous offerings & fair price for the Mother’s Day buffet. The whole family raved about the delicious, lean, cut with a fork prime rib. Dad even said it was the best cut he ever had, and he’s quite the meat connoisseur! We loved the endless jumbo shrimp, grilled vegetables, herbed chicken & fresh fruit. Lots of tasty, fresh & healthy options plus yummy “splurge” items like applewood smoked bacon, house-made mac & cheese & carrot cake. Our only complaint is that we all ate too much! Would definitely recommend & go back next year.
