For fans of a messy, delicious sandwich, their famous Jim Shoe sandwich would satisfy. This sandwich was loaded with meat and flavors, making it hard to finish without any parts falling out. The food came out quickly, and the place is cash-only.

Classic greasy spoon. Sunday afternoon needed some grease and the Jim shoe is my fav. The male who was in line before me described it perfectly. He said, “it’s disgusting but the most delicious thing to eat” I agreed!! Yummy on toast. I called in the order, had to wait 20 mins. Frfr. 20 mims on stony is a life time. Got home the order is wrong and sloppy… ok you get the idea. The cashier called me MaMa???He did it last time I was here. Who else called Mama? Ok so, I had heartburn, belching, and wondering why the fries were so under cooked. Thanks but my stomach hurts. Maybe next time….
