Casual tavern with harbor views, burgers, ribs & brews


































"Surrounded mostly by water, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a restaurant in Point Loma without a great view, and J-Fat’s is no exception! Located on the Point Loma Harbor, you can enjoy a nice breeze off the bay while enjoying Jimmy’s take on great American food. I’d recommend grabbing a table on the patio and taking full advantage of watching the boats, enjoying sunsets and the outdoor fire pits." - LESS+MORE


"Relax in the sunshine on Jimmy’s expansive harborside patio, where you can watch kayakers, fishing boats, and maybe even a sea lion cruising by. A cool glass of Harken alongside housemade potato chips with blue cheese dressing makes a surprisingly complementary pairing. But you really can’t go wrong with anything on Jimmy’s menu, as it’s stacked with American tavern comfort food done just right. Head to Jimmy’s at happy hour for $10 glasses of Harken Chardonnay and special pricing on barbecue ribs with fries, charred Brussels sprouts with bacon, or even Jimmy’s specialty cheeseburger." - Vox Creative


"Sailboats bob in the sunshine along the Point Loma Marina just outside Jimmy’s Famous American Tavern, while inside you’ll find a great neighborhood bar. Head here for happy hour before 6 p.m. for a glass of Harken Chardonnay and special pricing on house chips with blue cheese dressing, charred Brussels and bacon, or Jimmy’s famous cheeseburger." - Mary Beth Abate


"At the Point Loma family-owned spot, I learned they will donate a portion of proceeds from each Mai Tai sold through the end of August to Maui relief efforts, with the restaurant’s ownership matching every donation. The family-owned tavern — which is open for lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch — is also supporting the family of Lāhainā firefighter Josh Gruber, who lost their home in the fire, and will be donating 10 percent of restaurant sales on August 23 and 30 to help the Gruber family." - Candice Woo
