We finally made it to the iconic Jimmy’s Kitchen for dinner after hearing so much about its legacy. The warm, welcoming vibe hit us as soon as we walked through the door, and the service was friendly and attentive without being over the top.The meal started off alright, though the breads were a bit of a letdown as they came out bit cold, some warm breads would’ve been a nicer touch.Starters were solid overall.

Starters were solid overall. The Prawn Cocktail was a simple classic, fresh and tasty enough, and the Fried Camembert was rich and comforting. The Baked Escargots were a pleasant surprise, with a bit of garlic herb butter and creamy mashed potatoes that added an extra layer of richness, while the Angus Beef Mince on Toast really stood out. That dish was packed with flavour and perfectly balanced with horseradish and watercress. The French Onion Soup was another winner, hearty, cheesy, and just what we’d hoped for.

The mains were the highlight of the night. The Chicken A La King easily stole the show, with its creamy sherry sauce perfectly complementing the tender chicken. The Seared ‘Prince des Dombes’ Duck Breast was another standout, cooked to perfection and paired with a rich madeira jus. The Roasted Pork Chop and Steak Frites were both satisfying, proper hearty dishes that really hit the spot.

We finished with the Baked Alaska, which looked amazing and felt like the perfect way to end the meal. The pistachio and cherry ice cream inside was lovely, but the alcohol in it was a bit little too strong, leaving a slightly bitter aftertaste.
All in all, it was a lovely dinner for us. The food was solid with a few standout dishes and the service was great. There’s room for a little fine-tuning, but Jimmy’s unmistakable legacy make it well worth a visit for a laid-back evening and memorable dishes.
