I have been coming here for over 10 years just for their excellent Prime Rib dinner. The food is always great. The portions for the price is excellent. The service is great. If you want to go on a weekend get there early. They have early bird specials and also a dinner club card program.

PROS: Great Place

CONS: If you want to go on the weekend, you many have a wait

There's better out there

The food is overpriced and really not that good. You can get better steaks in the area.

Incredible beef, nice size drinks, and you'll love the crab cake appetizer

by fouroclockguy at Citysearch

We moved to the Brandon area in 1986 and found Jesse's to have good food and a great neighborhood atmosphere. We often run into friends.

Anyone over 50 that lives here has probably eaten the "Jesse's Special", a very large ground steak with shredded lettuce and mushrooms and no bun -- a low carb diner's dream.

Jesse's has two bar areas and ofen people get their drinks while waiting, and if they find a 'first come-first served' table in the bar, will eat their meal there. Their wine glasses are filled -- not portion controlled!

The place is known for its prime rib and other steaks. Their filet is a bit pricey, but they only use the best meats.

My wife and I like to have the crab appetizer -- 3 large cakes for around $10. If we each get an appetizer and a house salad, we can eat for under $30, 20% tip included.

I'm waiting for the food channel to feature Jesse's on "Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives."

• Pros: Good food, neighborhood atmosphere
• Cons: May have to wait, but there is a happy hour before 7 and after 9

Good drink prices - good food - bad beer prices.

by aulolyf at Citysearch

Jesse?s is one of my favorite places to meet and eat. I?ve been going there for 3 years now. The steaks are great ? prime rib fantastic ? fried shrimp one of my favorites. You've got to try the Jesse's Special - awsome! They serve the best broccoli anywhere - when the cook is willing to prepare it :(. Quality drinks; 2 for 1 before 7:00. Bad news for beer drinkers - must pay full 3.75 per bottle :(. Yes, sometimes there is a wait. Don?t rush - go to one of the two bars and enjoy an adult beverage ? with or without alcohol. Thumbs up!

• Pros: 2 for 1 drinks - Delmonico Steaks and Prime Rib
• Cons: Lack of broccoli and beer prices.

Jesse's SteakHouse /totally avoid

by ariddle1019 at Citysearch

Jesse's USED to be good. Since owner, Mr. Da'mico doesn't seem to be involved , the staff has changed, it's gone way downhill. As a single, 'straight' woman, I've recently been treated with total disrespect by the female staff & the food just isn't what it used to be. In fact, it stinks. On one occasion, I ordered the Greek shrimp. The salad & bread were old, the shrimp were overcooked, dry & tasteless. The Greek seasoning was like dust. On another occasion, my male dining partner, for his birthday, ordered the prime rib. It was cold as ice.

That's not counting sitting a 6'2' man in a little itty bitty chair near the doorway. Ruined that birthday dinner.

Never received any birthday celebration, even tho I called ahead.

I tried again to frequent the restauarant on my birthday. Ruined my birthday too.

Refused to serve me, even tho I have a $30 certificate from prior inciidents. On my birthday, no less!

Years ago, Jesse's was great. We all were there every Fri night since 1988. All the business guys did a big lunch on a regulaer basis.

I personally don't care what anyone's sexual preference is. Evidently, they do.

Beware, all you straight women out there. don't go to Jesse's or God forbid you complain of the quality of the food. Which, by the way, went way downhill.

I'll take my biz and hard earned $ elsewhere.

They can keep their rude, lousy attitude & substandard food.

Considering the fact that I was in the restaurant biz for many yrs, I find it appalling.

• Pros: decent prime rib
• Cons: lousy management

Great Crab Legs!

by bike_bub at Citysearch

Jesses is known for a number of things, but those I have spoken with had never heard of their Tuesday Night "ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT" crab legs. Jesse's does not serve the typical spindly legs found in most places. These are large, sweet, succulent crab legs - some of the best I have ever experienced! At first $24 for crab may seem a bit pricey in Brandon, until you experience it ONCE. You will be rapidly convinced it was the best priced meal you have ever purchased!

• Pros: Great Food, Good Price
• Cons: Overly Dark & Cramped

In a world of specialty restaurants, it can be tough to find a place that pleases the whole family. This place delivers.

The Scene

Don't let the darkness scare you away. The lightning is dim and the tile floor is cold, but that's where it ends. From the center bar to the window seats, the service is friendly.

The Food
At Jesse's, there's something on the menu for everyone, and mom and dad won't complain about the check when it comes. Entrees feature seafood, chicken, pork, steaks, pasta, burgers and sandwiches. Most come with soup or salad, a selection of sides and bread. Generous, high-quality steaks and burgers place Jesse's a step above other chain steakhouses. Pasta dishes come topped with grilled shrimp, chicken, steak, or shrimp parmesan. And the baked crab soup offers a new twist on chowders.
