“ I finally made it to the infamous Jimmy's Carryout! I've been hearing for years that they have the best yak in the city so I had to check it out. I called in my order of shrimp yak, 2 shrimp egg rolls and a half & half so it would be ready when I pulled up. When I arrived, it was bagged and ready to go. When I got home all it took was my one bite to understand why everybody gives them the "best yak" title. It was definitely worth the trip and I'll definitely be back. ”

“ ummmmm i see what's going on with jimmys and all of the negative comments but honestly i have nothing but great things to say about jimmy's when i go to jimmys i spend atleast $150 just because everything on that menu is amazing i have always been treated with respect from staff even the desserts are amazing btw the black woman who created vegan crab cakes, i woulda had the same reaction jimmy had via twitter nobody wants no dam jack fruit crab cakes!! i must be missing something because what i saw online, i didn't see anything that was racist he's an owner of a seafood restaurant, of course he's going to call bs on vegan crab cakes ”

“ I had the shrimp lo mein. Didn't like it at first. The noodles are small, squareish, and not doughy. Not the round noodles with firm full chew I like. Vegetables and shrimp were really fresh though. There was a lot of sauce and it was liquidy, not thickened or reduced down. If I came back, I'd try something else. It's a carryout without tables so buy your food and get out of there. Waiting on the bench for my order, I did notice a urine smell in the corner. Adds to the ambience :-) You may want to call in and just pick up/pay. ”
