Jumbo’s

Presentation is terrible. Why were there black stuff on my fries??? And my fries were barely wrapped when they came. Disgusting!!! I will never order from them again!!! And white nasty crusty stuff on the side of the paper my fries were in. So dirtyy.

This is exactly what a quick hole in the wall breakfast joint should be! Big portions, low prices, a great crowd and fun staff. What this place lacks in class it makes up for in charm. If you’re easily offended by a fast paced environment and plastic utensils then this isn’t the place for you.

The food is okay. I usually only eat breakfast here but my peeve with this place is the little mini glass of water they give you even though you are buying food. And they the owner even had the nerve to try to explain to mini-​me cup of water policy to me ! REALLY!!!

Jumbo’s is great for a fast meal for cheap.
If you are expecting a gourmet meal, you should look elsewhere, but this place is great for a quick bite on the go.
Great staff and quick cooks.
The Gyros are good and so are their breakfast sandwiches.
Just be clear about what you want on the phone, sometime they get the orders mixed up.

I live a couple doors down so I will occasionally stop in and pick something up to go.
Things I have liked:
BLT sandwich
Philly Cheese Steak
*not thrilled with their fries (both regular and sweet potato. I find them to be a little bit soggy)

Loved the atmosphere! Stumbled there on a random day in Harlem. Service was decent, food was cheap and filling.

The fish filet sandwich comes with three filets of fish on a giant roll.
The chicken tenders are actually made out of chicken breasts, incidentally, they’re also the size of a chicken breast.
It’s greasy and highly unintellectualized food. It’s not diner food reinvented. Everything can be cooked at home, but at these prices, why would you?
Plus, I get to hear my boyfriend sneak attack with Spanish. Oh what? You thought he was Italian/​Middle Eastern/​some other such ethnicity that lends to ambiguity? Me too.
Also, if you eat here often, you will be Jumbo. Boom.

Excellent service, excellent prices, and delicious, hot food — served fast. We had french toast, pancakes, bacon, sausage and Snapple. The food was served on Styrofoam plates with plastic utensils, which weirded me out but I’m not picky, just easily weirded out. The bathroom was mega hot but clean. I loved this place until I came back an hour later to use their bathroom again.
There was a cockroach crawling along the wall of the restaurant. I understand it’s NYC but still. That wasn’t even the worst part. The worst part was when one of the cooks walked by me, saw me making my «Is that Casey Anthony!!!» face, looked at that devil bug, and kept right on a-​walkin’. Fail.

This joint is the breakfast man cave. Walking through the door and down the stairs was like a time portal towards the days when I worked at the US Naval Shipyards. Proud and popped stiff blue collars, Union varsity jackets, Carhartt overalls. «Tool Time» could have been filmed here. Coffee slinging up and and down the counter like a time sensitive conveyor belt. Spanish spoken. Russian spoken. Jamaican Patwah rifling. The over sized greasy portions of grilled meat and cheese, sexy fat clouds of flapjack ready for Foxy Brown Sugar water to rain. Wet sticky, I know how you want me, Daddy Breakfast! Seeing the next man’s bounty made my mouth water. I bought a two egg with beef sausage sandwich. This massive cardiac breakfast sandwich set my Blink Fitness (be healthy stay healthy mantra) back, to fend for itself versus a multi-​velociraptor winner takes all Royal Rumble! This greasy spoon sidecar shaped oasis filled up and three Mexican men valiantly produced the most beautiful fuel imaginable. For under five bucks!!! We men, grunted like Orcs, ‘big-​eyed’ the occasional healthy leg, draped in limit stretched denim, that darted to the counter wanting her satisfaction. The FM radio playing was distant to the jaw dropping caloric crunch!
After doing the graveyard shift, Jimbo’s put the anchor in my gut and sent me deep to a euphoric sleep.

Ok, they are only getting one star because I can’t give them less. Seriously. Ok, so one morning I decide to order breakfast, which is cool because I don’t feel good, and don’t want to cook or go outside, since it’s like –12 degrees haha (not really but whatever)
I am told that it will be here in a half hour, and so an hour and a half later, still no food. I call back and guess what? No manager available, really? Come on. And no one knows what happened to my order. Interesting. Because I called 3 times… and was told 10 – 15 mins.
So the last time I call, I am told that no one gave the order, then he changes up and says they lost the order. Then oh yeah, get this — no one is making deliveries today.
So umm… needless to say, I will not be ordering from them again. By the way, less than 5 blocks away. Yeah, lazy, but it still shouldn’t have taken 2 hours to get me my food. And I end up sending it back because it was cold. All I can do is shake my head at this one… so be careful if you decide to take a chance and order from them!

I’ve only had their bacon cheeseburger, onion rings, fries, and sausage/​egg/​cheese breakfast sandwich.
The onion rings are a little mushy and the burgers are a little bland. Overall the food is ok, but pretty standard for fast food.
They’ll also make omelettes, gyros, chicken nuggets/​wings/​fingers, sandwiches, and salads.
Good for delivery, too. They’re open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
