I ordered take out. Menu looked good. Food was slop. Overpriced and bad quality. Not fresh.

We were a party of 10 adults easily seated at a long table. We were offered drinks immediately. My wine was a descent pour. That was the best part. It was noisy with children running and playing on the Bocce courts. Food arrived in a timely manner, but mine was truly underwhelming. I ordered Mediterranean Mac and Cheese. It was elbow pasta, a bland white sauce with bread crumbs, and four large pieces of plain broccoli. We were given only a napkin and fork (dropped in center table). I couldn’t cut the broccoli! The menu price was $18. I was charged $21. The wait staff was friendly and accommodating.

It's a competitor for the worst food in Camden. It's disappointing from start to finish. I can't even imagine the level of ignorance it takes to make a menu like this... Slider this, southwest that... Let's throw in Asian too. Let's not master any of those styles of cooking. Basically it's all slop. Honestly. Can't even make a normal burger like a 5 -6 oz juicy burger! I don't think lachance can, and that's a straight up challenge. Sliders are an appetizer, not a meal bro!

Had a great experience here on a bit too busy Sat. night. The menu has a great selection so we need to return and sample more. But the two types of tacos we had were great and the fresh cut fries great as well.

The Jack is a cozy restaurant with creative food and good service. We ordered from the "big" bowl menu. What's called big bowl is really not that big. It tends to be a little chintzy on the main ingredients, especially at its price point. Everything is extra, even the small cups of sauce. Good drinks and presentation, which I would mainly be back for.

Really cool place to get some good food, a couple of drinks and play some bocci ball or bags. All indoors! Old mill converted to bar/ restaurant with waterfall right outside. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Made us feel like regulars our first time there. Delicious food....good specialty drinks and a few games of bocci. What a great evening. Keep up the great work.

I chose The Jack for a dinner out with my wife because it has a beautiful waterfall that runs right next to the restaurant, unfortunately, outdoor seating was not available even though it was a nice evening. The place is very "different" with Bocce Ball and Cornhole lanes inside. At 5pm on a Friday the place was almost empty. We were quickly seated and our order was taken quickly by a waitress that I don't think smiled once the entire time we were there (bad day?). I enjoyed an order of the Thai Egg Rolls and Onion Rings, but my wife ended up finding a long black curly hair in her Chorizo Tacos and that was the end of that...my wife ended up seeing the long bearded cook in the kitchen with no mask or hair net on who we were later informed was the owner of the establishment. We explained to the waitress what had happened but there was no offer to even take it off the bill !?! Couldn't recommend this place to friends or family. Very disappointing.

Quiet place off the main street, but it should be busier. I had the Korean tacos, and although the portion size was a little small, it packed excellent flavor and the steak tender. My kids enjoyed the Bocci courts, and we all loved the view of the dam off the back deck. Our server (Chyenna sp?) was knowledgeable and kind. When we are up that way again, they'll see us.Kid-friendliness: Server was kind and the atmosphere allowed the kiddos to play.

Unexpected surprise!!! We were heading elsewhere for dinner but due to the extreme noise in that certain restaurant plus allergies to gluten and dairy (husband) we ended up talking to a local couple and they sent us over to The Jack. Great casual atmosphere. Wonderful menu that my husband could actually order from. Waitress was extremely helpful and attentive especially to his allergies. Bonus that we did not expect was free bocce or cornhole inside the restaurant. We played a few games while waiting for our meals. My husband had the Mongolian Beef Bowl, which he loved. I had the fish taco's with street corn. Everything was so good. I did order churros for dessert. I wish we lived closer. Really nice place. Outdoor and indoor seating, spacious too.

Really cool spot! The food was the best we had in Camden! We had the fish tacos with French fries, and the pulled pork Mac and cheese. The fries were hand cut and seasoned so well, you can tell the difference between the generic restaurant freezer stuff most places sell you and these. The cocktails were delicious and the service was extremely friendly. Can’t wait to come back!

Service was good, Bocce was fun, food was horrible. I got the Bahn Mi, which was basically a half a cup of rice, 6 sliced cucumbers, shredded carrots and some pulled pork. The dish was supposed to have sriracha sauce and there was none. $18 of flavorless food, I felt ripped off. I would have given a 1 star but the bocce was fun and different and service was good. Go for drinks and to play, that's about it.
