EaterNovember 7, 2013Renowned chefs David Burke and Rick Gresh are supplying an array of bacon-themed "handwiches," bacon desserts, and bacon retail items inside a tiny storefront. Grab a seat if you can.
Kelly OlverSeptember 21, 2013Don't pig out before having a cocktail at Jimmy...Save it for later & if you're friendly to the staff you'll get a few taste testers.Try the flurry for dessert with dash of bacon.Serious OINK factor!

Eric FryAugust 19, 2013Outstanding. Beef and cheddar was a big hit. I loved the eggplant meatball. Flurry was liquid amazing.
Angela GuzzettaOctober 19, 2013Great sandwiches, but a little expensive for take out. Loved the beef/cheddar and 5 spice. Worth a try.
Jade CabAugust 28, 2013Vegetarian sliders were good, bacon lovers will be happy, and soft serve wasn't bad either.
Pimpcess WongApril 3, 2014Not a place to sit and eat. It's order and go. All sandwiches are "slider size". I had high expectations. This is nothing compared to BarBacon in NYC

"Sandwiches. Italian speciality groceries like cheese, olive oil, pasta. The best customer service. Make you feel like family."

"Incredible concept: you can buy while you have lunch or dinner; or eating while you buy its prime Italian items? I take the seafood bar, the Polpo (octopus) was amazing."
