4.0 of 5 stars.
Jinkys is fun, my wife and I like to get the omelets, she likes the Brie filled one with Chicken, the salads are also tasty. It's convenient for dinner and the prices are reasonable.

It may take an hour or more to get seated for Sunday brunch, the food is worth it. The portions are great and the options are quite diverse. Other than the wait, parking can be a challenge.

Great food, very friendly staff...One bit of advice for parents of impatient ( aren's they all?) kids... don't go there on a weekend morning. They are very busy and the wait can be very long to be seated.

While the food is tasty and of an average price for its quality, the wait in line is rather long. I find the pancakes to be the best while the scrambled eggs using only eggwhites was rather bland.
