Client Testimonials

Jimmy Vigilante has provided us with invaluable resources and information for years. I have had the pleasure of working with Jimmy since early 2015, and I am immensely grateful for all that he has done for our property. Through Jimmy's guidance and mentorship in the sanitation realm, he has forged my team's mindset to work proactively, rather than reactively. He has assisted with training my staff, further increasing their Food Safety knowledge and awareness. The wealth of knowledge that Jimmy brings to the table shows throughout the Food and Beverage division, resulting in the preservation of "A" grades for all 20 SNHD permits within the hotel. I would strongly encourage all Food & Beverage business owners and managers to entertain the idea of working with JVC Food Safety Specialists.

I have known Jimmy since 2005 when I worked with him at the Bellagio.  He has always been the most knowledgeable and reliable sanitation expert around. Needing an excellent speaker at The International Culinary School at The Art Institute of Las Vegas, I could think of no one better to come and speak to our students as an industry professional in regards to the importance of Food Safety and Environmental Health.  Jimmy volunteers his time about twice a year to speak to our students in both Sanitation and Purchasing classes, and is a favorite among the students and facility alike!  Jimmy’s natural ability to captivate his audience makes it impossible for you not to learn something every time you meet with him! He is truly a pleasure to work with!

Career Advisor, The Art Institute of Las Vegas / The International Culinary School

I have been lucky to use the services of Mr Jimmy Vigilante for the better part of the past 5 years. Jimmy has been with me for openings for over 10 multi-million dollar high profile venues, countless health inspections, classroom trainings and plan reviews. His knowledge, experience and relentlessness to please his client have lead me to never getting less than an “A” on any inspection or never opened later due to sanitation reasons.

Jimmy is well versed in all areas. I used him for many restaurants, bars, nightclubs, a pool venue and even a bowling alley. Jimmy is always a phone call or email away from advising me in the correct direction. I have learned much from this man and I often hear his words coming from my mouth while instructing staff, both front and back of the house. Jimmy is 100% an asset to any company that choose to utilize his services.

I have known Jimmy Vigilante for about five years now.  Jimmy has worked by my side as a Corporate Executive and through his own company JVC Food Safety Specialist, which is second to none.  No matter either way, he has the same keen and electrifying attitude that is extremely motivational as he has a unique training technique.  Jimmy has been instrumental with his thorough sanitation inspections through numerous food and beverage outlets.  Most importantly he has the charisma to deal with multiple personalities in the food and beverage industry at a major resort.  Recently Jimmy continues to mediate for industry to assist in defining, communicating, and advising of the new Southern Nevada Health Regulations.  You can’t go wrong with Jimmy.
