Editorial Review for Jim's Family Restaurant – by Peter Behle
The Scene
Your typical Denny's-style coffee shop. Ask to sit out front by the window--the back room is a little claustrophobic. On weekend mornings, most of the patrons look like they just straggled out of bed: it's that casual.
The Food
Don't think you're going to get fancy here--this is good, honest food at terrific prices. Breakfast is the star and it's served all the time. The Greek Omelete (ham, onion, tomatoes, cheddar and feta) and Jim's Breakfast (cheese-covered home fries, two meats--sausage, bacon or ham--three eggs and toast or pancakes) are guilty-pleasure gut-busters. Lunch and dinner aren't for the calorie-conscious, either. All the big entrees come with soup and salad, along with either potatoes or spaghetti. Go for something Greek (either pork or chicken souvlaki) or the diner stand-by--country-fried steak.

there are several locations in the valley. the service is all about the same at each of them - average. i think a prerequisite of being a server is having a 'doo whackadoo' hair style. when ordering the steak and eggs breakfast the steak is always cooked to death. order it rare and you have a ghost of a chance it being edible. they don't have low-cholestrol eggs products. interesting clientele to say the least. i had the fish and chips here once and it was actually pretty good. the fish part was cooked from frozen but that was to be expected and is actually preferred in most restaurants in utah.

The best review that I can give comes from the words of my kids..."We like Jim's pancakes a lot better than [insert the name of a large international pancake maker]! The service is great, and always prompt. Food is good and there's always plenty of it.
