Grande Jake's is a fun little place serving delicious, flavorful food at reasonable prices. The staff (and owner?) made sure we were happy and satisfied. We hadn't been there in a while, but will be sure to drop n again soon.

I’ve been to this location and the other location in the past and food is good usually however today experienced something absolutely horrible and now i understand why other location closed. I have a 2.5 year old kid and owner saw her walking around and told us rudely that she can’t be walking around and on the 2nd time he kicked us out, no joke. He brought to go boxes and said eat somewhere else in a rude/disgusting way. Never ever going here again and i’m sure this unethical business person will run out of business at some point.

not sure if they accidentally spilled all their salt in our order but wow.. couldn't really tell how the food was because we couldn't get past how salty everything was. the only thing that tasted normal were the tortilla chips. worse part was they give big portions so it was a struggle finishing all that food. service was quick and even tho we carried out, ambiance seemed on par for a mom and pop shop. still debating if we should try it out again (leaning towards no).

Had a great dinner last night with some friends at Grande Jakes. Never been their before. Food was excellent and Jake’s team were truly exceptional. Will definitely be returning as this will be my new “go to” for Mexican food.

Had a fantastic meal and margaritas on a weeknight. Jake (the owner) was very welcoming and conversational. Found out that they make all of their salsas in house! Figures because they were delicious. Great food, margaritas and service!

This place is Terrible. Ordered 3 burritos and 4 tacos which cost $64. Not worth, food was very bland. Too add insult, the other” burrito bowl “ was only made of lettuce and beans, yet I paid for steak. No rice- just lettuce from a bag, and beans from a can. Daylight robbery. No moral compass or ethics.

The staff at Grande Jake's are very professional, and attentive. The owner is very nice and my husband and I look forward to many good meals in his restaurant. Food is very tasty and filling, the atmosphere is family friendly, which is nice. Prices are decent, and everything is fresh. Thoroughly enjoyed their tacos; have had one of their burritos, before this, so I would give this restaurant a 4.8. Please come and enjoy their food. It's worth the trip. We enjoyed the horchata also. , it was a bit sweeter than others I've tasted, but refreshing.
