Jameson’s Review
They seat the guests in a simple atmosphere with nice clean environment. The place can busy quickly so you may want to call in early and get your order in by phone if you can. You will enjoy eating this wonderful soul food in such a friendly environment.
The food is deliciously prepared for you with the southern palate in mind and you can’t go wrong with this place. The menu is awesome with great baby back ribs that just fall off the bones with great taste. The order counter may be a bit loud, but when you sit down with this great tasting southern food, nothing else matters. You will love it. Their chicken is also fantastic for you chicken lovers.
The service is great and the wait time is minimal. The owner himself helps out in every area it seems. At the counter, in the dining area, or all over the place, he takes a personal interest in the customers. The wait staff are also friendly and hugely helpful to each person. You can’t go wrong with a place like Jameson’s for tasty Southern Cooking.
