What User likes about Jimbos Pit B Q:
I went there with 12 friends and we were seated promptly. The food was outstanding and served quickly. The BBQ smell is kept outdoors, so you don’t walk away smelling like smoke. I highly recommend this place! The ribs practically fall off the bone! Everything was delicious, including the hush puppies. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Jimbos Pit B Q:
Customer was great!! It has been decades since I have gone to Jimbos. We ordered hamburgers, which comes with two hush puppies. The burger was tasty, however they appear to be frozen. I was expecting a homemade patty. The hush puppies were fried hard and a tad ?. View all feedback.

The Lakeland location doesn't serve hand-cut fries, which was disappointing. The green beans lacked any flavor, and the beef was extremely thin. Additionally, t...
