Jimmys Killer Prawns

1. We usually order the 50 prawns platter with chips, rice, and trio sauces. The prawns were cooked perfectly and seasoned well. The tables are spaced out nicely, and it’s a family-friendly place. The waitress that served us was very good. Parking is an issue. They have a very small parking next to the restaurant but it’s always full. There are side street parking or paid parking nearby. Would definitely recommend it if you’re a sea food lover.

2. The restaurant specializes in different seafood barbecues, but the most famous one must be the prawns. The portions are very sufficient and there is a special offer of 50 prawns every Tuesday and Thursday. The various sauces are also very delicious, whether for a family or a couple. Very suitable for everyone to enjoy

3. Came here for a family meal, from young children to grandparent, we were all happy customers. Can’t recall ever having prawns as juicy and succulent than from Jimmy’s! Top marks for also the other mains we had, grilled chicken with veg and rice, grilled chicken burger and fish burger. Menu is healthier than alot of places about. Good place for one off gatherings.

4. We went to Jimmy’s prawns a couple of years ago and had a positive experience, therefore we went again this evening all the way from Nottingham.
   This time we chose the extra spicy prawn platter, as the waiter said that the spicy one isn’t all that spicy. When the platter (with rice and chips) arrived we started on the chips and noticed that the ones at the bottom seemed really oily. The rice was inedible as it was swimming in oil. We pointed this out to the waiter and he apologised and gave us an additional portion of rice. He said that the extra spicy prawns are also extra oily.
   However the prawns were very greasy and we were abit doubtful about his explanation. It was only when we looked across at other people’s empty platters that we noticed ours was the only one that had a pool of oil at the bottom. Again we pointed this out to the waiter and he said it was due to the extra spice (apparently the spice is mixed into oil which is poured into the prawns), he said we should order our sides separately If we want extra spicy prawns next time, but surely if that was the case, he should have advised us to do this when we placed the order? We had no idea that our food would come swimming in oil, otherwise we would have gone with the standard version. However at this point he conceded that there was more oil in our dish than there should have been.
   We finished our dinner 3 hours ago and we still feel abit sick due to the high level of oil we consumed. I don’t think we will be eating at this place again due to our bad experience.
   The jug of strawberry lemonade was overly sweet and came with lots of ice despite our request for less ice. The meal cost £52.75 for two of us which didn’t include starters or dessert.
   We are highly disappointed with this restaurant, the waiter continually fobbed us off, despite there clearly being a fault with our food. We were previously looking forward to the new branch opening soon in Nottingham but if the service is like what we experienced tonight, it won’t go down very well.

5. Really amazing first time experience here. We’ve been served by Ahmed and he provided us with exceptional service- came every now and then and made sure we had everything we needed. The taste was spot on, we had the killer prawn platter for 2 and it was just the perfect portion for 2 people. Servings were generous. Would definitely recommend coming here!
