What I ordered: My companion and I took advantage of Jimmy's Happy House appetizer specials.  One thing we tried were the Cajun walleye fingers.  I've had the regular walleye fingers several times, but this was the first time I tried them Cajun-style.  I enjoyed the additional spiciness combined with the crispy batter and fresh tartar sauce.

We also wanted wings but I was debating whether I wanted the delicious teriyaki wings that I've had before or if I would try the spicy sesame.  The waiter recommended the sesame, so we tried those.  They were not at all what I expected, which was something more "Asian" inspired.  The "spice" in these wings tasted very much like their buffalo sauce, which I don't particularly care for, topped with sesame seeds.  Won't be ordering this flavor again, I will stick to the sweet, rich teriyaki.

Our other companion ordered the grilled chicken breast sandwich, served with honey mustard dressing and thought it was pretty good.

Service: Friendly, prompt.  There are usually free games going on for discounts on food or drink.

Overall Impression: Good happy hour specials, good place to meet with friends for happy hour or to shoot a game of pool.

    i was ripped off at this bar/grill! i was over charged without letting me know. the waitress never came to serve us until we waved. the bar cheated by putting $20 extra tip without my authorization. this place just lost a customer and whoever hung out here you probably got ripped off not knowing. bad customer service, cheated on my tab, and although u say happy hour, drinks are not even mixed well. all drinks don’t compare to other places. i will never come back there again….BAD SERVICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Unknown, You don’t know what the @#!& you’re talking about. Jimmy’s has the best service in the area. Why do you think they are so busy all the time. If they are ripping people off don’t you think word would travel fast. You are abviously trying to sabotage the place. You must work at one of the other places around the area. Enough said. Grow Up.
