Jimmy's Steer House

If you want good food in a nice restaurant that is not too fancy but fancy enough to enjoy, then Jimmy's is a must! They have good food at reasonable prices. In their menu you can have chicken, steak, seafood, hamburgers, salads. They offer appetizers and desserts. Drinks are offered as well .I used to enjoy them at the Burlington Mall. So glad they are still around in Arlington, and Saugus. If you never been, you have to try it now. If you have bern one, you will be a regular customer.

6 of us went to Jimmy's today. I ordered the Teriyaki Steak Tips, baked potato, and salad. Ambiance: it's a nice place. Has been for the 30 years we've been going (no, not every week...lol. maybe a couple of times a year. I meet my cousins there.Service: The waitress was very good. Efficient! Came by enough to be noticed but not enough to be overbearing. Nice job.Food: mezza-mezza. The salad was fine. I found the steak tips were cooked medium but were tough to chew. Honestly, I thought they were re-heated or "chuck steak tips." Whatever they were, they were not sirloin. I was unimpressed with them. I would not buy them again. I've had their steaks before, so I know they can be good. This wasn't. The baked potato was solid. I mean, solid. You know how a well baked potato should be a little soft. If you squeeze it from end to end, the potato should crumble up... not this one. It was hot, but about 80% done.Everyone else at the table said the food was fine, only one (who got chicken) silaid it was really good.Overall, a 3 star. I will go back again, but if this happens again, I may reconsider.

Opened in 1973, Jimmy's hasn't changed decor or their menu is over fifty years. This could be a blessing or a curse, depending on whether you like the year 1973.We were thrilled with the chicken and eggplant parm. We were less thrilled by the steak tips and burger. The portions are big FWIW.Expect to pay $30 per person.

Wait line is typically out the door. I suggest getting there 30-60 minutes before you want to eat. It doesn't matter if you get there before 5, you will still wait because the customers are typically elderly. Which I'm guessing is why the prices are so reasonable. So it's a great place to get a meal that's not overpriced. The atmosphere and decor is old and dark. Not very well lit. The staff all seem to be hopping busy and work well together. The food was mediocre but portions were good. It's one of the few places that still serves bread and salad. Our waitress who was a middle aged pretty blonde was not nice. She seemed to have an attitude which she directed towards my 12 year old daughter. She approached our table to take our order with an attitude and nasty tone which made my daughter and me very uncomfortable. My daughter asked me to order for her and this woman didn't appreciate that and directly instructed my daughter to look at her and order for herself. I was infuriated but didn't want to make a scene and make my daughter feel worse. She was already hiding her head in her menu. I simply intervened and ordered for her and tried explaining that my daughter was just shy. This woman could've cared less. She was not pleased with us, and before we could order dessert, she was giving us the check. She couldn't wait to get rid of us. The whole experience was unpleasant. Not sure what her issue was, but I suggest she not try to reprimand other people's kids. Maybe if she came over with a smile and introduced herself and was a bit personable my daughter wouldn't have been intimidated by her.

We really enjoyed the food. Husband had the prime rib and I had the steak teriyaki tips. Both were quite good. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very pleasant and attentive. Will definitely go back.

So my daughter and I were looking for a steak place in the area and came across here. I live in Boston my whole life, and I've never heard of this place, I've been in Arlington, and the Lord knows how many times and never even seen it. It is a little gem, and I'm glad I found it. Upon entering, you're greeted by a really nice hostess, then seated everyone is so polite and so kind. It has an old style rustic Steakhouse look, and I love that it's them in there, so it was exactly the atmosphere I was looking for. They have a pretty good menu, you can find something for everyone on there. From burgers to pasta, seafood, and steaks, they have a variety of things to pick from. Catherine was my server, and she suggested I get the Teriyaki steak tips because I was already considering the steak tips, and she was not wrong. I trusted her advice because she was such a great server and had that on his vibe. I got a side of baked potato and it was really good usually when you go to certain restaurants baked potatoes be so dry that's a question if it's even a real potato but not here it's so good. My daughter had a burger and she also liked it the only problem was there were no pickles which is very weird. My other dislike is I asked for a blended margarita it was very frothy and tasted so watery. Catherine didn't notice that I was drinking it and actually took it off my bill. I guess there are no complaints. All I thought about when I got home was I wish I had dessert but I was way too full, I can't remember the last time I went somewhere and actually finished all the food on my plate.. I was actually upset because I had one steak tip left, and I couldn't finish it, and I wanted it so bad. The prices are also unbelievable, Google the menu. They have a parking lot outside, so parking is no issue at all. All in all, I would definitely be going back here it might be a regular spot for me, at least until I try more of the food.

Rude server. I asked for steak tips medium rare and they were cooked to medium. I got the same cocktail twice and the first one was good, second one was made wrong.

Been coming to this amazing restaurant since I was a kid with my family. Always consistently and you cannot beat the price and quality- the service is always fantastic as well. You can go to these expensive steak houses and spend 50 bucks on a below average filet but I'd rather get a great filet at Jimmy's for a fraction of the price

Overall it's always been perfect. I don't eat in restaurants but only @ Jimmy's since I've been a kid

We've been going to Jimmy's for decades and the food has always come through as good quality but lately not so much. I feel they are par-cooking the broiled salmon and then heating it up as people order it. You can always tell when something is reheated. It is not the same consistency as it used to be. The vegetable medley was a soggy mess. Rolls are meh. Service is usually pretty good. Disappointing. We are starting to go to other places instead, which is too bad because this was a regular stop for us.
