It's a chain restaurant. I've never been.

I used to work here. It is a great example of a good crew, but shitty management. Having worked in the industry since I was old enough to work, one GM (no assistant managers or supervisors) running two locations doing the volume of business they are, is simply not enough. A fine place to eat, but an exhausting place to work.

It’s fine. I’ve had it a few times. Wouldn’t never pick it over some other breakfast restaurants.

Went there once years ago, pre COVID. Walked out because service was just that bad. My family went there another time and said the food was not any good. That they should have went to Ceders

On the south side around there Roots has excellent food and coffee and is a local business on top of that. For chains First Watch and Big Biscuit are better.

The average of what everyone here says. I’d try locally owned places if you’re looking for a great breakfast.

Nothing special feels like a generic IHOP

I'd pick gaileys , morning day cafe or Cedars over Jimmy's egg any day of the week.

They make a solid Cubano. Can't speak to the rest of their menu.

Expensive in my opinion for what you get. Village Inn is great in my opinion. Dennys is awesome and so is ihop. I have never eaten at St. George.

Not terrible, but overpriced for the quality of food.

I used to live in that area and it was my favorite breakfast chain. Haven't been back in a few years. Always loved the meat lovers omelet and coffee.

I use to work at both locations, and I ended up leaving after a month because I felt discriminated for being pregnant and the kitchens were extreamly disgusting and found several health code violations that they were in no rush to correcting.

I have eaten there since it moved there not long after I graduated. are there a bunch when I was pregnant. They were great at first but it’s always so crowded. the regular staff I see have been in burnout mode for a while. the last time I ate there they gave me a cold cinnamon roll with a string of icing on top - not like them. pretty sure the pandemic has impacted them a bit. I haven’t gone back in months because it’s always at least a 45 min wait (It’s typically me and one other person). I think they should move to a bigger space. food is usually pretty good.

It is mediocre. If you want a good diner experience, georges. If its the weekend and you want foodie breakfast, split or lindbergs. Morning day is the best around. Another good diner on the southside is scramblers. Gaileys is a springfield staple. The order across the street has the best coffee in town and its roasted special for them by coffee ethic. The food used to be divine but they changed their menu a while back. This town breakfasts right. Dont waste your time and a chain that is just okay.

Not worth the price, but I really liked their coffee blend.

Well, eggs can be slang for testicles so there's that element to it. Also, humans don't usually lay eggs, so it makes Jimmy sound vaguely threatening, as if he's an alien or a monster. Or a giant homicidial anthropomorphic egg, if the sign is anything to go by.
