Our World Buffet have the choicest assortment of finest international cuisines under one roof to satiate the cravings of everyone in a family and different genres.
We take the as much care over the way we make our drinks as we do our food. We have a wide selection of Craft beers, wines and of course cocktails. Our trained staff are more than happy to make one up for you whether it's a delicious non-alcoholic cocktail loaded with fruit or something perhaps with a bit more of a kick.
For children, Jimmy's is an Aladdin's cave of excitement and with almost every choice of food available they'll surely be happy whether it's Pizza or Pasta, Chicken nuggets, and chips, or maybe something more adventurous. Either way, it's guaranteed they'll end up at the Ice Cream Tapenyaki station at the end of the meal.

Myself & my siblings came here for lunch & we were not disappointed! We all had bottomless soft drinks which includes squash or fizzy drinks (apple tango, coke, Pepsi etc) for £2.99. The food is a mix of Indian, Chinese, American etc. The food can be either hit or miss because I experienced some cold Indian dishes today which needed to be hot!! A good place for groups or if you are on a budget!!

We went to Jimmys Buffet for their £10.99 Happy Hour Special (Mon-Fri 5-7 p.m.), not including beverages, and it was decidedly average.
They do have a plethora of options, even for vegetarians, but almost everything I tried was either surprisingly spicy (like roasted potatoes), or decidedly lukewarm (like pakora). I actually like spicy food, but not in unexpected places, and I was surprised by it being lukewarm since we were there only 15 minutes after it opened for dinner. In addition to these, other things, like the vegetable lasagna, had an odd, incredibly mushy-like texture (perhaps due

I came here when it first opened and was known as "jimmys spices". I had been to other restaurants of this chain before and to be honest, I wasn't particularly impressed with this one. Considering it was a buffet, I found the choice of food to be poor and the service not great. However since they have had their latest revamp, I'm gotta say I'm very impressed. Paying as you enter is a good idea as then you can eat and aren't waiting around for the bill after. However it is slightly annoying having to go to the bar just to Order a drink should you want alcohol. They

HUGE Restaurant, HUGE potential but let down by poor customer service and a poor range of food.
The size of the restaurant is impressive.
The quality of food was not great but what it was what I expected from a buffet operation of this nature.
What wasnt good was the range of food wasnt anything like the web site made out. For example, there was no Sushi - the thing my son was looking forward to, despite the website boasting Sushi. This is not only bad customer service but it's also illegal to advertise what you are not offering.
Customer service was very poor with staff not offering to

We came here as a post birthday meal because it was close and with our Gourmet Society card the food bill would be discounted 25% so for £10 we didn't think we could go wrong.
Booking on the phone was easy, the guy we spoke to was polite booked us in under a minute, so that was pleasant.
Upon arriving the restaurant was large and nicely furnished. There were lots of staff and many chefs on show which was nice and the decor was modern but that was the best thing about the restaurant. We were seated by having a table pointed to, so we sat down. No drinks were taken, the guy who pointed at our

As an American expat, I was looking for a complimentary birthday buffet meal in London. They exist! (Surprisingly...) My choices were down to JRC Global (have been to) and Jimmy's (have not been to). I decided to try the place that I haven't been to - and that was Jimmy's in Wimbledon.
The restaurant website is colorful, showing off many different cuisines they specialize in. However, the actual restaurant, is catered mainly towards Indian cuisine (I'm not complainin', I have a spot for Indian food). About 70% was Indian dishes while the other non-fried options were Chinese

The low marks are down to the performance of the staff - from placing a booking for 25 people two weeks in advance and calling the restaurant every couple of days to organise a surprise party but on the day two and a half hours before guests were to arrive at the restaurant I was informed that they might have to cancel the booking as a water main burst! They said they would update me in 30 mins but waited and waited and spent time looking else where in case but no call. I then contacted them an hour and a half before the booking and was informed the booking was still to proceed.
Then later on

Great night out with a group of friends. The usual chinese,indian,mexican, etc lots of desserts and an ice cream station. Friendly service.
I'm a little biased in that i think the epsom branch make a nicer masala dosa and lamb rogan josh though it could have been the day i went. So perhaps i should give it another go.

Jimmy spice is another one of the local Hot Spots.
There are a few dishes to chose from but still not enough. I was not satisfied with the buffet and i think the variety of foods was still very limited for a buffet. The desserts was also very limited. I was disappointed and didn't think it was worth the money. I may give it a second chance but not anytime soon.

Curry, Pizza, Salad.....
...Marshmallos, lasagne, ice cream, noodles.
A huge restaurant opposite Wimbledon Theatre priding itself on the exploration of around the world cuisine.
It's a sure bet for large groups with bits and bobs to please everyone and a good selection for vegetarians.
The set up is quite impressive, large hot plates, desert bar and chefs in white hats wandering around asking if you need any advice about what to try.
Now, I can imagine what it's like when the restaurant is full on a weekend, and I can see why the place gets a bad rep here. But, I went of a Tuesday

Jimmy's is a great place to go when your in a group as you will have an excellent selection of fresh food Indian, Chinese, Mexican, Italian, Thai to name a few and therefore can cater for even the fusiest of eaters. There is also a huge selection of desserts and even an ice cream stand where the chef prepares an ice cream mixed in with your favuorite toppings.
Highly recommended

This place has a mish mash of different cuisines and usually that can be quite risky but the food is actually pretty good but make sure you're a fan of indian food because the majority of the chefs are asian so everything but the italian section has a bit of an asian infusion.
It was ridiculously packed when I went and apparently thats the norm, You are herded around the assembly line like buffet and there isn't nearly enough space towards the desert section. Certain foods I just couldn't wait for as the line was so long but they looked amazing from the 25 strong queue :-)

The concept behind Jimmy Spice is a sound one. Do I like Chinese food? Tick. How about Indian? Tick. A spot of Italian maybe? Tick. All in one place? Hmmmm......
There's a lot to be said for specialists. People and businesses that shirk the 'One size fits all' mentality and the 'one device that does everything' idea that pervades our quick-fix society (oooh deep) and simply prefer to do one thing right. As the opening gambit of this review suggests, Jimmy Spice is not one of them.
It manages to do lots of things averagely. The food is ok, with no particular dish standing

The restaurant itself is huge and reminds me of a restaurant back in America. However, when I went for dinner in the middle of the week it was so crowded and waiters often came to our table with wrong drink orders and they all appeared to be quite lost.
There was a large variety of food, but the quality was only very average. Also, the presentation of the food was quite sloppy.

Jimmy Spice's, the multi-cultural buffet restaurant chain which started in the Midlands, continues its spread into the southeast by opening its latest restaurant in Wimbledon last week.
It follows the pattern of their other restaurants, serving up Indian, oriental and Italian food, mainly buffet style but supplemented by a few live cooking stations such as the noodle stir fry, where the chefs will fry your chosen combination of meat, veg and noodles with a sauce of your choice.
The restaurant itself is very bright and airy with high ceilings and big windows. It does tick many boxes but I
