I wasn’t able to even get seated I made a reservation a month in advance only to find out this restaurant has no text confirmation once we arrived we found out they don’t even have a text alert when the table is ready they made us sit outside
In the cold when we were out there met a couple that have been waiting over a hour before us also lack of communication and they wouldn’t even go outside to confirm if certwin people were waiting until literally the inside was a fire hazard people blocking the entrance even children running around the bar so if you go here be prepared

I heard great things about about Captain Jack’s restaurant from uber drivers, locals to people that I met. Staff work as a team and everyone has a task. As a single traveler the atmosphere was not my thing, however the food was delicious (salmon with sliced tomato)

From the outside, this place looked like a casual dive bar, so we expected a quick late lunch/early dinner. We arrived around 4pm and were told seating would begin at 4:30, with a table by the window set aside for us. When 4:30 came and the restaurant filled up, we were still waiting at the bar. After a long delay, we ordered an appetizer (which was good!) just to pass the time. Unfortunately, the bartender was noticeably unwelcoming toward us (ignoring us unless we called for him) while being very friendly to others, which was uncomfortable—especially as my dad is a person of color and everyone else at the bar wasn’t.

At 4:40 we checked in with the hostess, only to learn we were never put down for a table (even though she took my name down). While they corrected it, we were seated about 15 minutes later on the opposite side of the restaurant. By then, our appetite was mostly gone. I ordered the clam linguine, which arrived extremely overcooked and mushy—disappointing given the prices. Didn’t bother saying anything or complaining because we can give grace when a restaurant is nearly full on a Sunday evening. The only bright spot was the bussers and bread service, who were excellent. We spent over $100 on drinks alone and still felt poorly treated. If you have high standards, I wouldn’t recommend. Overall, not worth the visit, especially if you aren’t Caucasian.

I love the vibe! So much to take in. The staff was friendly and on top of it. We walked in off the street on a whim and they took great care of us. Make sure to show up hungry! I tried the Hawaiian Ahi and would recommend!

Looks can be deceiving from the outside and upon entry. But once you're seated the serving staff is wonderful. They work as a team and are very accommodating. Tim was our server and he made great meal suggestions. The crab, lobster tails and the prime rib were some of the best entrées I've had in some time. They make their own salad dressing, the Bleu cheese was outstanding. The cheesecake was rich and creamy. Even their ginger beer was delicious. I highly recommend!
