Jim Dandy's - American restaurant in Nutley - 563 Franklin Ave, USA

Go for the ribs. Super delicious & falls right off the bone. Worth the trip alone. The staff are amazing & very helpful. Awesome beer selection too, honestly what more can you ask for?

Horrible experience!! I cannot believe we paid 100+ dollars for this food. The food was extremely cold and stale. It looked like they just threw the food in a container and sent it out. Wings were dry, cheesesteak had no cheese or anything just meat and bread tossed in a container. Fried shrimp burnt and over cooked. Cheese fries were rubber. I hope we dont get sick. Very disappointed!

Today was my first time there, great atmosphere. Went with a ton of kids and everyone there is so kind, and helpful with ordering your meal/drinks. Very neat place to chill with friends and family. Will be back!

I ordered a grilled chicken wrap with honey mustard. Comes with grilled chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, and option of honey mustard or mayo. They forgot to add the sauce. I took the order to go. I was disappointed to open up the wrap and see no sauce. It was dry so I didn’t eat it. I called to let them know and was told they would give me a $.50 cent credit for the sauce that was already supposed to come with the meal… smh. Good luck.

I ordered shrimp and chips both were overcooked my cheeseburger sliders were pretty good. My wife had the pulled pork sliders she said they were good my daughter had a veggie panini she said it was too much cheese and not enough veggies. Overall I was disappointed I spent 70 dollars and it wasn't worth it considering that was the first time we tried jim dandys. Those shrimp and fries were almost burnt I should have asked for a refund but I doubt if I will be returning there even though I reside in Nutley.

There is no better place in the tri-state area where you can support a family owned business, with great service, great food and a welcoming atmosphere, with a bar attached to it for a reasonable cost. Whether you want to enjoy a good meal with the family, a work lunch with free wifi, a sports game or a happy hour with strangers, this place has something for everyone. From darts, to quick draw lottery they have it. It’s the Cheers of Nutley NJ. One of the few places left where the bartenders will actually but you a drink back. (Bar side called the Mudhole). Staff is top notch, there’s always great music playing and they always accommodate your needs. There’s nothing super fancy about it so if your personality is bougie, not the place for you. 2 items I would recommend are the boneless wings, which are UNMATCHED on the East Coast, if not the country and the pulled pork. Not a rib guy but that’s their specialty. Do yourself a favor and stop in.

I got a draft beer, a 1/4lb hamburger and fried zucchini sticks (with vinegar) my husband got Philly cheese steak with potato skins and a fountain soda. Food was great, the bar side of the place was loud and hopping which was a nice contrast to the quieter food side. Country music was on the speakers, movie on the TV, sports on the other TV but nothing so loud that we couldn't have a nice conversation while enjoying our late dinner. We were there at 7:30pm on a Friday night. Their homemade potato chips are fantastic along with their delicious ribs and chicken wings but we decided to try different things this time and we weren't disappointed. Give them a try!

Pretty bad service/ food/ atmosphere. Walked in and sat my family and myself. Four guys staying around. One guy gave us menus and said “when you’re ready to order you can walk up to the counter and order it.” What?! Why couldn’t he take my order that’s beyond me. Food was server on paper plates (wack) Mac and cheese bites are horrible. Everything is nuked and brunt. No customer service what so ever. I guess if you wanna get hammered and eat freeze food then this is the spot for you.
