★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have been frequenting JRS lately, almost on a weekly, and it gets better every time! My first foray into the space was on a dreary winter night and there was Latin music and dancing going on! It is their weekly event on Wednesdays btw. Other times have been on other weeknights. My new go-to is their Steak! So goooood! And as the staff see me, I feel like I am becoming one of their regulars! Looking forward to my next visit!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Always a great experience at JR Slims... attentive servers, great menu selection, and tasty food. Happy to see diligence in their Covid-protocol and in checking passports and cleaning.
Late-night happy hour deals are a nice touch and the meatballs are delicious. Highly recommended.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Had an awesome waiter who helped us out with our gluten and dairy free restrictions. Had the chicken burger (McChicken 5.0 stars) Ahi Bowl (Bomb) and the southwest chicken salad (Refreshing). Highly recommend and would go again

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I went to JR Slims a weak ago and I had a great experience overall. I have some notes to point out and describe my experience in detail about our newly opened pub in town.
1. The Staff and the Manager:
They were are all pretty polite and friendly and the waitress was supportive. We were sort of the last group who left the restaurant and the manager had a friendly chat with us and asked our general opinion about the pub.
2. The Drinks:
The beer collection was not diverse and they only serve ocal breweries (Driftwood, Philips, Hoyne) which I personally always prefer.
The cocktail menu was also limited, but creative. I tried "Mo-vito", "when doves cry", and "buffalo peach". They were all tasting smooth, refreshing, and serving in 2oz measures.
The prosecco cocktails were generally delicious, enough bubbly, and fresh. I tried "Manmosa", and "Kashmir" and they were both exactly festive as I expected.
3. The Food:
The steak was fabulous! and It was cooked as I asked and juicy as I expected. My friend ordered a double cheeseburger he liked it. The noodle was also looking delicious.
In general, I liked their vibe, ambiance, variety of seat sets, staff behavior, and of course the location.
They absolutely worth a try, if you are looking to get detached from your daily stress and refresh within a night. You'll like the new spot.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Love this place! Everyone is super friendly and they actually remember regulars unlike some restaurants in the downtown core with high traffic! (My biggest pet peeve with other places!! if I’m spending money so often at least remember my face) Especially love JR Slims for remembering which regulars have vax passes because we come so often:) (a nice reminder of what it used to feel like before the passes.)
It makes us feel so special to walk into a bar where the staff is excited to see us. They make you feel like you're their friends and the food is amazing. Rare.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I recently watched the Champions League final at JR Slims. It was my very first time there and let me tell you, I have no regrets.
The restaurant floor is open and full of lots of light. It has a simple but elegant feel to it. The location is right Downtown so super accessible and easy to get to.
The hosts were super friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure our experience was a great one.
I had the Baja fish tacos. The portions were huge and the food was delicious.
All in all a great dining experience.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Good service, good location, good food at comparable prices.
Heated outdoor patio with tables and bar stool seating available during these unusual COVID-19 times.
Service was friendly and welcoming.
Location is great at the foot of Yates Street (intersection with Wharf Street), a short walk from the Inner Harbour, Bastion Square, and the Johnson Street Bridge.
I had previously ordered the Sirloin Steak (7 oz) with garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli ($25) via a delivery service: I was very good so decided to try JR Slims in person.
My Crispy Calamari ($12.50) was a bit on the small size but was fresh, crispy and satisfying. It includes deep-fried jalapenos, diced onions, and dip. It went well with my Red Sangria ($8.50).
I tried Sarah's Turkey Burger with Crinkle Fries ($16.75) which was not as large as I expected. However, the formed turkey patty is nicely seasoned and the burger flavourful.
Overall, good food at comparable prices, good location with outdoor seating and friendly service.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Really liked this place, the team running it are efficient and professional, the cocktails are delicious! And the food just as yummy. Great location too, right in the heart of nightlife in Old Victoria. Love love the music they play too. Of note...the steak and that sauce and the perfectly done greens...mouthwatering!
