TIDBITES SAGA:

JIMMY'S GRILLE
Bridgeville, Delaware

What a pleasant surprise!

Our usual Friday Night Group didn't meet. So, I organized an ad hoc trip to Bridgeville (30 minutes away) to go to the famous Jimmy's Grille. I had never been there but had heard only good things. They cater the annual Milton Historical Society's dinner and the food is always very good.

When the 7 of us got there, we found out it was VERY popular and crowded. We first saw a case of the famous cakes and pies.

We were seated quickly though and appraised the menu.
1/4 of the menu.

And found the prices very reasonable for the down-home cooking.

When the food came we were bowled over! The portions were huge and delicious I might add. We all had a great meal.
It was a lot of fun, too. I had chicken stuffed with dressing (delicious), collards and stewed tomatoes with pecan-cream pie! I also bought a whole, huge coconut cream pie to take home.

I sure will add this restaurant to my list of favorite Delaware beaches restaurants.

I am too, but you are in Pennsylvania or I certainly would have asked you.

I haven't been there in about 2 years. I remember it was very good though.

What a great restaurant! Good home cooking, the likes you won't find in Rehoboth or the satellite towns of Milton, Millsboro, and Lewes. While there are many wonderful restuarants in those areas, sometimes a guy just wants some old fashion home cooking that he doesn't have to take out an equity loan to pay for it. Jimmy's Grill is the place. So much to choose from the menu. I'm looking forward to a return visit soon!
