JIMMYS ROCKS!!!!

Jimmys restaurant in SOHO is the coolest traditional greek restaurant I have ever been to and will ever visit I believe.
At Jimmys, Live music is played by an older greek man. If I had the power, I would give this man the nobel prize of drinking alcohol. He started singing and playing music around 8 pm. As he was singing, the waitress kept on giving him bottle after bottle of greek vodka, Ouzo. As time passed the man was getting more and more drunk, after about 3 bottles he was truely and utterly DRUNK. Between his songs he took 2-3 minutes to share his views of the world, these views did not make any sence. However, when this man played his music, he was singin on the top of his lungs and it actually sounded really nice. Everyone got up and started dancing greek. I did not know what I was doing however whenever I turned around there was a greek person in my face screaming " OPAAA, VERYYY GOOD".

The atmosphere was AMAZINGLY WODERFUL. People were friendly and very openminded. I felt truely wanted when I was there, there was no greeks only-mentality.

For 16 complete meals and 7 big bottles of vodka including drinks we payed £500. I know that I could pay much more than that considering the experience that was given to me. I truely loved Jimmys Restaurant and it is a fact that I am going back soooon again.

Pros's: Amaxing atmosphere, live traditional music, good food, good prices, greek style decorations, BEST GREEK RESTAURANT IN LONDON, down to earth feeling!

Con's: Small, poor air conditioning
