BIG NEWS FROM JIMMY’S FAMOUS!

In case you haven’t heard, with our recent menu change, BOTH Jimmy’s Famous locations are now 100% SEED OIL FREE! 🙌

That’s right. No seed oils in our kitchens. Period.

We’re using beef tallow for our fries, wings, and fried favorites. We’re using olive oil for our house-made dressings.

This is a BIG move for Jimmy’s Famous and another step in our commitment to serving great food made with quality ingredients, without compromising the flavors you know and love.

Same Jimmy’s Famous favorites. A whole new way of cooking.
