Jim’s Family Restaurant - Halifax, Nova Scotia

Great family restaurant. We love having breakfast out.

Great meal, great service. Imagine your classic family restaurant: homemade food, friendly service and warm atmosphere. This is it boosted on steroids. Food was great, very reasonably priced, the staff went out of their way to make us feel home. Food was out in 20-25 minutes, which is completely standard, but ... they felt so bad that it took “too long” due to a large online order that they treated our entire table with desserts on the house. If this isn’t going above and beyond, I don’t know what is. We will be back! Read more

Sea salt fries were the best thing that night, wish the server would have recommended we all get them. Fish was decent, tartar sauce wasn’t overpowering. Nachos were ok. Calamari was rubbery, nacho salsa was a bit watery, donair burger meat was bland, poutine gravy was pretty bland as well and I ... think they used shredded mozzarella. Read more

If you’re looking for a hearty dinner with a combination of pastas and seafood selections this is a great spot. It’s that old family restaurant type feel. Unfortunately when we walked in no one was there to greet us. The women at the counter remained on the phone and kept her ... head down. I asked if we should seat ourselves or stand and look around. The feeling of being an inconvenience in someone’s day. Luckily the waitress whom came to our table after we seated ourselves saved our impression with a kind smile. The menu has a number of selections depending on your appetite or what you fancy. We ordered a few different things off the menu each to meet our taste buds. The food was alright the saying, “you get what you paid for.” would come to mind. The clams were a hit in the way they were prepared and definitely what we were looking for. The fish and chips were more oil and batter, having to play hide and seek to find the fish within the batter. The end result was it was filling, and a hit and miss. Sadly the smell of oil as you leave stays on your clothes and you are reminder of your dinner. Not being from then area i guess one could say it was a free souvenir. Read more

We had a good time here reuniting with some old friends and this was a pretty good to do so. The food was pretty good but nothing special. The fried foods were a bit soggy and the wait times were a bit long but the waitress was friendly and patient ... with us. Read more
