Super yummy Greek food. No particular menu you just say what you like and they bring it for you. Big, beautiful servings of fresh and yummy Greek food. So good <3

Got a table easily at 6:30pm on a Friday night. The food was very nice, very good portions. Loved the atmosphere and especially the service, all the wait staff were very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely come back.

Delicious greek food served here. I loved the lamb and Greek salad. The wine served in a Carafe is a great idea. Service is friendly and hospitable. Can get pretty busy at times

This restaurant does not have a menu. It is best suited to people who are happy with banquet and sharing type meals as a result. Also, people with minimal dietary requirements.
That aside, the food is decent and authentic.

Everyone I know has been to Jim's and everyone raves about it. After visiting last month I can now see why. It's seriously the best Greek restaurant I've ever been to. The seafood is superb and the lamb is out of this world. It's always busy which adds to the feeling in there, it's always a good night at Jim's.

This restaurant is a little different from the other Greek restaurants. We sat down and the waiter said there is no menu. He began... "what would you like.. we have dips, we have calamari, octopus, fish whatever you like, I get for you! Such friendly staff and food is amazing! Dips are yummy, octopus, calamari and cutlets were also delicious. If you go in a group of 4 or more it pays to ask them for the so called 'set menu' which is $45 per head and includes quite a few dishes and dessert. Restaurant is also BYO. Make sure you always book as they are very busy.

This place is for you if you're happy to turn up, smile at the waiter and eat whatever comes. you won't really know what's coming but it will definitely be yummy Greek staples. worth a visit to this when in Melbourne. It is a very strange place, with no set menu or prices

We read the reviews for this place a couple of weeks ago and decided we HAD to go.

WOW! Such a friendly, noisy, wonderful place! Waiter came up and asked us what we wanted to start with, and from then until we left, I swear the food never stopped coming. I have never had an experience like this before and I loved it.

So many fun people and just a brilliant place!!

There's a long history of my family going to Jim's. Mum's been going there before she even met my dad.
Jim's is an experience in Greek food. There are no menu's - the waiter will ask you if you want to start with the dips, some saganki? Octopus? Then go on to talk about the meats. Don't expect a menu here, the food is all about conversation and it's great fun. Loud, family friendly and very Greek. It is a bit quieter if you book for 6pm, but things heat up quickly especially on the weekends.
My absolute favourite Greek restaurant. It's also worth requesting to sit in the courtyard (it's covered) as it's a bit less cramped.

I love everything about Jim's. I love the noise, the crowd, how lively it is and especially the food. Beautifully cooked Greek food and plenty of it. I don't think I've ever seen a menu, they just keep bringing out food as long as you're hungry for it. Jim's is not just a restaurant, it's an experience.
