1857 Jackson House Reviews
Seriously, beware. I ordered $12 cheeseburger with onions, pickels, mustard and ketchup. Charged $1 to fry the onions, $1 each for 3 pickel chips, $1 for mustard. Never again
The food is fantastic, the drinks are even better. We are huge fans, my three year old also loved his food. The waitress was very attentive and friendly. The scallops were perfect. I loved the cheesecake dessert. I have a feeling everything is good. Very impressed, all around!
One of the best meals I have had in years!! Kudos to the chef!! The scallop and lobster risotto was amazing!! From first to last bite !!

Menu
1857 Jackson House offers an upscale dining experience in downtown Dover. The charming atmosphere, efficient service, and exceptional food make it an ideal spot for romantic dinners, dates, or gatherings with friends. The chef's menu features daily specials and unique flavor profiles. Standout dishes include the Chili and Lime smoked wings, and the expertly crafted Old Fashion cocktail with Angel's Envy Bourbon. The restaurant has recently introduced a New Orleans themed brunch menu, featuring items from po-boys to shrimp and grits, chicken and waffles, and huge bison ribeyes. Exotic dishes like a New Orleans classic turtle soup and fried frog legs are also available. Duck fat fries and the best French toast have received high praise from guests. With well-crafted and affordable drinks, including a fantastic espresso martini, this restaurant is perfect for a pre-show dinner or a special occasion. Reservations are recommended, and attentive staff are eager to help navigate the menu. Sadly, Sunday marked the last day of the Jackson House in Dover, but the restaurant is relocating to Middletown, where many look forward to enjoying their favorite dishes once again.
