Great food, friendly staff

Recommended by Willy’s airboat yours for a quick dinner before our tour. Staff so friendly from the moment we walked in the door. Delicious food and the home made sauces, especially the hot sauce! Yum! Definitely recommend.

True Southern BBQ

When we first walked we were greeted by the son and pit master himself! As we had arrived around 630 pm on a Friday; they informed us that there would a comedy show at 800 PM. We had an amazing dinner and got to see a great comedy show. I had a Baby Bear meal and got to sample a little of everything (Ribs, Chicken, Pork, Pulled Pork and Brisket) from the menu with this meal. Worth the trip from Orlando or surrounding area. The deep fried gator was prefect!!

Bacon, Bacon!

Sep 2021 • business

Ate there with a large group for the first time last night. Had pulled pork which was great and moist. Table had apps of fried oysters and jalapeño poppers which were quickly devoured. But….the bacon👀, nice and thick and well cooked crispy, smokey and sweet. Amazingly great! Waitresses were great, quick and friendly. We all had a great time and plan on returning next week.

Last Time Eating There

Aug 2021 • none

I orders chicken and ribs. I got 2 ribs and the chicken was like a TV dinner and the beans were dry. Fries were terrible. The Onion rings were not cooked enough. One of the worst places I've ever eat. I will not go back!

Burned ends!!

Jan 2020 • none

Sounded good on the menu but looked and tasted like the same..Burned to a crisp. Pulled pork was dry and no amount of sauce would help. There may be other things on the menu that are good but I'm not going back to find out.

This is my favorite local

Mar 2021 • none

This is my favorite local bbq joint. My family has eaten here at least a hundred times over the past several years and we’ve never had a bad meal. The owner is extremely hands on and prides himself on his food. The atmosphere is great and the food is fantastic. I come here for breakfast as well and it’s the best breakfast in Osceola County as far as I’m concerned and the country fried steak and eggs are off the chain as are the pigs in our blanket. The ribs are great, as are the brisket and chicken wings. That and the sides are way better than most bbq joints. I’d suggest the tater tot casserole or the corn casserole. Also the fried green beans are great as well. Great job JIMMY BEARS!!!

Service was friendly

Mar 2020 • none

Service was friendly. Environment was clean. Food was just OK. Burnt ends were super dry, hard to chew and swallow. Ribs were pretty good, but nothing exceptional. Side were ok too. Their grizzly sauce was excellent though. Corn bread was outstanding!

Keep looking

Aug 2021 • family

If this is one of the best restaurants in town as the reviews might say, then i would hate to see the worst. Food is barely average, atmosphere is below average as your dining in a comedy club banquet hall, service was good because there was no one there at 6pm. There is a reason for that. Parking lot empty, keep looking.

Good.

Mar 2024 • family

We stopped here after visiting an alligator zoo/airboat tour. It was lunchtime and we were the only guests. The brisket and meats were very good, especially the sliced brisket. The best value was the boneless wings…our 11 year old ate everything and the portion was huge! Generally, the portions are big and none of us could finish our meal. You could definitely split/share. Prices were “ok”…$3 for soft drinks, but you could have one for the road. All sides were good, except the corn casserole…just not a fan. It’s casual and fine for families in the day, but at night, I could see how this becomes more of a bar/live music venue.

Great BBC While dealing w COVID

Jun 2020 • family

Here from NH to help a family member during COVID and looked at the reviews re Jimmy Bears bear St. Cloud. Food was great but prices are a bit high and the sides were small. Ordered online, service was great and staff were nice. There is comedy club with the restaurant at night reopening soon.

Best Ribs I've Had!

Feb 2021 • couples

I've had BBQ all over the states and this is high up there on the taste. The ribs were hands down the best ribs I've ever ordered anywhere. The pulled pork and chicken had great flavor too. The various BBQ sauces were pretty standard but with a bit of a twist that's great. I ordered the mustard BBQ to take home! I'd definitely eat here again.

Review Based on Carry-Out

Mar 2021 • friends

Which was outstanding. Well smoked ‘cue with a great char. Still tender. Rubbed not sauced, but choice of sauces were provided on the side, thank you very much! (I much prefer to sauce my own). Largest rib I have ever seen - delicious, I felt like Wilma Flintstone trying to eat it. Ended up making 2 meals out of it. Maidens were equally delish. We carried out,so cannot comment on restaurant ambiance.

JB's Rockin' BBQ Bar

Oct 2023 • solo

Heard this was a good local BBQ place and decided to give it a try. Was surprised to find a Juke Joint posing as a BBQ place. It has an extensive bar, a stage with lighting, speakers, etc. They are ready to rock it out! The restaurant was basically empty during lunch hour except for one lone couple and the staff. I got a pulled pork sandwich with slaw, tater tot casserole, and a sweet tea. The pulled pork was tender and smoky but was a little oily. The slaw was fresh and had a creamy mayo-base. The "Totterole" was mushy and bland - not so good. The tea was good and tasted fresh. Three different BBQ sauces were on the table: one mustard based, and two others that seemed just like one another - rich, smoky. Prices are about what you would expect. Not much atmosphere unless you are into an empty nightclub type feel. Not what I was expecting.

Fine food

Feb 2020 • couples

We visited Jimmy Bears for dinner. Don’t let its location keep you from trying it. It is in a little shopping center. The service and food is excellent. The St Louis ribs were great. The portions are very large. Our server Cheryl Lee was very helpful with recommendations with this being our first visit there. We’ll definitely be heading back there soon.
