Jamie's was a little too much of a dive for me. It was a little intimidating as I walked up to the front door. There was graffiti on awning outside of a not particularly nice building. I was a little weary about leaving my car parked outside. If it was later at night then I probably would have not stopped here.It was very dark inside in stark contrast to the bright outside California sun. It felt kind of dirty. There were deer and buffalo heads on wall and a picture of Guy hung behind the bar. I got the sense that even though this was a bar and grill that it was much more bar than restaurant. It is more of a beer and a shot kind of bar rather than a martini kind of bar at that.
Despite my reservations, I ordered the chicken gumbo with a half-BLT sandwich on sourdough bread. The gumbo was spicy but pretty good. The BLT was ordinary. It was definitely not DDD quality.
I rated Jamie's a 4.0. I can not say that I recommend it. Oh well, they can't all be winners.
