I have no complaints. I love the food, delicious and affordable. Kudos to the staff who are so friendly and accommodating as well. It deserves more than a 5 star rating.

Bad service, bad attention and the staff, very bad customer service, I think that with the excellent location they have, if they improve the cleanliness of the place, improve the unpleasant smell that they have, they will improve customer service and of course improve the food, they would be a point of reference for the city

Old fashioned hot dog and broasted chicken joint. Operating under the same family owners for over 70 years, Jake’s is an Uptown institution. Best known for its colorful window graphics (“Only a rooster can get a better piece of chicken”), it has limited seating, lots of carry out, and delivery through the usual services. Broasted chicken is its signature meal—not the usual fried chicken (made in a deep fat fryer) which you can find at any number of national chains, instead broasted chicken is fried in what looks like an oversized pressure cooker. This reduces the amount of oil absorbed by the chicken.
Jake’s also has a range of other food, including tacos, eggs, Italian beef and sausage, and cheeseburgers/hamburgers, as well as apple and other pies.
Vegetarian options: Not a lot of vegetarian options, although they will make you a salad.
Parking: No bathroom, which isn’t a big deal as it really isn’t designed as a sit down restaurant (although there are a half-dozen or so tables.
Wheelchair accessibility: Street level, no steps or other barriers.

Chicken is not seasoned well, it’s actually not seasoned at all, they need to master how to season and marinate chicken.

I love this place. Their chicken and shakes are to die for, and every time I walk in Im able to find a table to sit and eat. The people at the register are so kind and friendly, and they always make sure I have everything I need. THANK YOU JAKE’S 🙌 🩷😊

Where else can you get a decent burger, fries, and a drink for 12 bucks? Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, and quick service.

Don’t get the Elotes from here, they use Parmesan Cheese and not the real Mexican Cotija Cheese.
Their Gyros don’t come tzatziki sauce.
Fountain drink was terrible. Tasted as if they don’t clean their dispenser.
