Restaurants in Jackson

“Great team off people! food is always amazing.. steak and shrimp my favorite.. today I was there and was greeted by the manager on mother's day with a beautiful red rose 🌹. Never disappointed .. everyone is great. thanks for doing a great job Team!!!”

“Best Mexican El Pastor tacos! Service was excellent. Good atmosphere. Everyone loved the food!”

“Thanks, Kris! I appreciate you hosting our birthday party brunch. We ate and drank well, and taking our group picture on the stage was extra fun. Hope to see you next time.”

“Fantastic service and the food is Great”

“I’ve been coming to Sandhill Crane Vineyards every year since 2013 and it’s become my favorite birthday tradition. Every June 24th, I make my way back to this little slice of Michigan wine country, and it never disappoints. See you all on Tuesday! 🥳”

“Awesome atmosphere, popcorn, and the best BEER.”

“love the beers..food is awesome..music/entertainment is amazing..5 stars..dude with the pony is on point with the service..actually love all the staff...appreciate you all!”

“Absolutely a five star experience I’ll be recommending to my friends and family. The staff were personable and knowledgeable, able to provide great recommendations and insights into the truly impressive selection of wines, beers, ciders, and distilled spirits they produce. There is a dog friendly patio in the back and the day we came there was a visiting food truck. The owners were onsite the day we were there and offered us a tour of the hangar where the planes are kept. I absolutely plan to come again to try more of their drinks and also plan to check out their second location where the production is done and where they regularly have live music. Absolutely amazing experience, can’t wait to come back.”

“Bristol was easily the best waitress I’ve ever had! & of course the rolls & butter were amazing!”

“I've only been there like three four times I love the atmosphere the bartenders and the owner is really nice I met him a couple times I highly recommend it and I will be coming back.”

“love the store. you always have to leave with something. With me, it's clothes. we had breakfast and I hate to say how much the quality has gone down. you get plenty but it was terrible. my eggs were supposed to be over medium but one was over hard and the other was over easy, asked for crisp bacon one half crisp the other soft. Biscuits are not what they used to be, but gravy was great. I won't even start on my husbands. we don't complain due to what could happen in the back.”

“Great place.... we drive from eaten Rapids to come to this location....good food friendly staff

Vegetarian options: Thanks for feeding me Great home cooked ? meals...”

“As always such a great race to eat on your ten year anniversary! Our waitress was excellent”

“They have good pretzels. The employee that was working there when I visited, Athena, I think their name was, was very nice and made my experience better. I am however very sad thry do not sell regular pretzels and only sell pretzel bites.”

“Bartender 1st day ...and could of used a little help .. had eggplant pram with spaghetti...brought wrong meal ...then got it right and never offered cheese for the dishes ..”

“We had a great server tonight…Ashley S.. she was pleasant and on top of her game! Jackson Mi…”

“Klavons in Jackson has the nicest and most caring staff and management. Our car broke down in the parking lot and while we figured out what to do we ate inside. The food was delicious and the staff very friendly. My daughter was feeling unwell so we were sitting outside figuring out what to do and a member of the staff getting on shift brought us all ice water to stay cool. She also offered for us to sit in the lobby in the ac. Soon after, the manager and his son came out to check on us. He told us to come inside and get the kids out of the heat and we were welcome to stay until we get situated and get a ride. The staff got us a table and checked in on us often. I highly recommend this place not only for the delicious food, but for the genuine care of the staff. A million thank yous again to the Jackson staff for your hospitality!”

“Staff was friendly and I had the best burger I’ve had in a long time!”

“Hands down best burger and fries I have ever eaten. We eat there A LOT! The prices are great, the owners & servers are extremely friendly. Always letting me know what and when the next special will be. Expanding their restaurant would be amazing, I’m certain that if they did it would still be just as busy! I love their rewards program, since we eat there quite a bit, we’ve saved on our bill several times. #loyalcustomer”

“The best Mexican breakfast hands down!”

“I've had a LOT of sausage gravy in my days. And this is THE best. Crowded? Yep. Chaotic? Very. But when I want breakfast nothing beats it. So what if I gotta wait, worth every minute.”

“I eat donuts all over the country. These are among the best I’ve had. There’s a reason this place is regularly considered the best in the state. Nothing fancy or “artisan” about these donuts. All fillings and icings are made in house. Their cake donuts are insanely good. These guys are pulling donuts out of the fryer from 5:00 to 11:00. If you like warm donuts that melt in your mouth, then be sure to ask what’s still warm or what’s coming out next. It will be worth the wait and you will come back.”

“I have yet to have a party there for my grandchildren. But will be planning one this summer. I have been there once, was impressed with the whole place. Looking forward to this summer”

“our favorite pup-friendly coffee shop!”

“Took my mom in for dinner, we were looking through old pictures and tearing up the entire time. My mom is really talkative and can come off needy and such but she was in the industry for 30 years and myself have been for 8. I just want to share how amazing our server makenna** was. We were a bit needy and my mom over shared but our server made us feel at home. Best service hands down, she is a rock star and deserves all of the props. Get it girl”

“Best place in town! We visit often and the cook always saves me a hash brown casserole! Highly recommend!!”

“Fabulous! Ample portions. Great value. Will be back.”

“Noah was a great bartender he made sure that we had the best possible experience. My family and I will definitely be retuning.”

“Great food, good staff the live music was great ,just a great place”

“Picked up a variety of lunchbox cake tins for me and my family and they were all so good! Very fresh and delicious. Super reasonably priced too!”

“Cute little diner! Really friendly service! My kids and I enjoyed stopping in here for the first time (we were in town to visit the Cascades Humane Society). We liked the uniqueness of this local business. Regulars came and went and the waitress seemed to know what they liked. I'd rather support a business like this than a chain restaurant. Would love to see some hand cut fries here. Would totally go with the place. Thank you for a fun outing!”

“Sweet deliciousness! Can’t wait to go back to try a different crepe.”

“Baby Bear Burger is top notch, best burger in Jackson. Highly recommend, everyone needs to get there. They also play the best music.”

“Great food and service. Hats off to Mauricio who took care of all needs. A great dining experience!”

“Amazing restaurant with amazing food! The only problem is they have weird hours and they aren't open nearly long enough! I forget about them when we are trying to decide where to go because they are so often closed early. All 4 of my teenage boys love their food, actually my 13 year old says their fajitas are bussin' which if you speak teenage boy then you know that there isn't any higher praise!!!!”

“This was our first meal from Love Pasta!! We ordered Focaccia Bread. Spicy Chicken and Chorizo Pasta Tray Bake. Ricotta and Spinach Cannelloni. Tiramisu. An absolute superb meal!! The flavours were delicious!! Quality ingredients!! Enormous portions!! Very nice presentation!! Reasonable prices!! You are an excellent cook!! We will definitely order from Love Pasta again!! Many many thanks!! Rob and Sue Winters”

“Absolutely the best in flavor and beautifully done. Lemon Cake and mini fruit tarts, absolutely exceeded in every way. Will be using The Blue Julep for all our special occasions and celebrations.”

“Wow! Absolutely delicious. My first experience- it was a hard decision to pick what I wanted to try for my first time. I told the woman to choose for me and I was not disappointed!”

“This place offers a full plate of breakfast. Not a small plate, a BIG plate of food for a very reasonable price. The service is prompt and the coffee is bottomless. (With liberal visits with the coffee pot.)

I highly recommend you give it a try. Breakfast was outstanding. And they serve rice pudding. Thank you!”

“I've been coming here for over 23 years. This is not ONLY my favorite lunch spot/suggestion, it's the only thing that keeps me coming back to the city of Jackson.. Amazing dogs, amazing people, amazing place! Swiss Dogs and PB Crunch bars are a MUST EVERYTIME I visit! Thank you for existing IDH!!🫶🏽❤️”

“Food is always great but if you tell someone that the food will be ready in 20, 30, or 40 minutes it should be ready. No one enjoys waiting for an extra 20-30 minutes to get a carry out. Just my personal opinion.”

“The iced coffee comes with ice cubes MADE OF COFFEE, that itself is 10/10. But the coffee & juice is always incredible, the bagels are the die for from Kibby Kobb, the owners & workers are the best people to see first thing in the am! We stop multiple times a week & leave in the best mood, thank you all!”

“Awesome coneys! Service is awesome can’t wait to come back”

“Everyone is so nice AMAZING food go to spot from now on ❤️❤️❤️”

“Wow! Life got ahead of me and I was remiss in stoping in.Was I gald to finally getting there.I was a regular patron of the the prior Anna's.From the minute I walked in to leaving I was overwhelmed!

“So happy I stopped in here, the food was AMAZING! Cheese steak and fried mushrooms so delicious.”

“Great place. We got there this morning with two kiddos and they we're closed. The owner was super nice and got us all ice cream which made my kids' day, thank you! :)”

“This is the best ice cream anywhere. And I even am comparing it to other Dairy Queen's. They serve the ice cream at the correct temperature. A lot of places don't know how to keep track of the temperature that the ice cream should be. Always so creamy. Some ice cream is too cold believe it or not.”

“I needed sugar cookies last minute, and I am so grateful they were able to make it happen! Not only did they take on the order with such short notice, but the cookies turned out absolutely perfect. They were beautifully decorated, fresh, and so delicious. I truly appreciate the amazing service, the quality of the cookies and the packaging. Thank you for saving the day!”

“love this place and the staff.”

“The men ur is huge and the food is delicious!”

“Good portions, great food and atmosphere!”

“There are few places my Granddaughter insists on going to for our Saturday breakfast dates, but Blue Moon is by far her favorite and we go often. The staff and food is awesome. I always get the same thing but she is more adventurous and tries something different. Recommend this as a 10 out of 10!”

“our favorite treat! love everything we've tried! delicious sushi and hibachi!!”

“Best fried chicken I've ever had! I've heard the fish is good as well. I will have to try it sometime.”

“Grinder was turkey and ham, the best grinder I have had. Bar tender was awesome and helpful very nice person. Had a porter ale while I waited for take out and was done before I finished ale. Great experience!”

“My favorite Bar in Jackson. Great atmosphere. Great staff. See you there y'all!”

“Food is Great, and friendly staff.”

“Absolutely the best tacos in town. The sauces are out of this world! The staff is very personable. If this place is not on your radar it should be.”

“Every time I go to Sarah's Place I have a fabulous experience. Food and Great and service is always with a smile.”

“Honestly one of the best margaritas I have ever had..we loved our food & service. We will definitely be back soon!”

“best hamburger in Michigan. Great service , great owner!”

“Always liked Culvers. I have had th same great experience at every restaurant in every state. Wisconsin, Illinois, Arizona and now Michigan. The food is good, the custard is good, I love their root beer, the kids are always on point, the restaurant and property is fresh and clean every time. A very consistent company.
Excellent job!”

“The food is made to order and it doesn’t talk that long to get to the table”

“Great food. Great service. Will definitely go back.”

“Awesome food , friendly service, fast food delivery, and fair prices.”

“Mackenzie is always helpful even when I am being indecisive about my flavors. She has a large menu and is always updating things so I never get bored of anything. I highly recommend paying her a visit.”

“A true dive bar. The tap selection is typical. Didn’t have any menus. Ordered the cheesesteak wrap which was very good. Burgers are basic, nice big patties. Not a bad place.”

“China King is (IMHO) the best Chinese restaurant in Jackson. The food is high quality with generous portions. Service is quick, friendly, and efficient. I live on the opposite side of town, and I passed two other Chinese restaurants on my way to China King.The food is well worth the drive. One caveat, I wouldn't say it has a good dining atmosphere. It is clean, but not set as a place I would take a friend to dine in.

Parking: Convient free parking with ample size parking lot.”

“Been here twice with my brother and sister in law since moving to Michigan a month ago . The service is awesome the food is good and the employees really professional”

“Lively and fun place. Bring cash cards not accepted”

“I had a great time. The food and outdoor entertainment was a great vibe!”

“What a unique little diner we found!! We loved the atmosphere and the service was top notch. The prices were truly amazing. Half the cost of any other eatery I’ve been to in years!!!
I highly recommend finding this little gem during your travels.
We bought 2 tee shirts as mementos and the bill was only $49 for everything!!!”

“Great staff, great food, with a cheers atmosphere.”

“I recently went out here for the first time with my friend. I have always loved Aunt Millies, especially the potato bread and I could not believe the price and variety there! For $4 I got two loaves of potato bread, a loaf of honey wheat and two 16 packs of hamburger buns!! That would have cost me at least $20 anywhere else and the employees were so kind and helpful! One gentleman saw people looking at the small packs of hamburger buns and made sure we knew he had big ones too!
I will definitely be back! Seems silly to get my bread anywhere else”

“I ordered some Gluten Free dinner rolls for a gathering this evening. One lady raved about them. I had to try one for myself. It was the lightest, fluffiest, most delicious GF yeast roll I’ve ever had. If I hadn’t known that it was GF, I would never have believed it to be so. I highly recommend the GF rolls if you are Celiac or Intolerant- I have been told by the baker that they practice thorough and safe practices to prevent cross contamination.”

“wonderful flavors and friendly staff. that is my favorite combo!”

“Really enjoyed the live music last night. 3 pc band was excellent, pauleo invited musician friends and they helped make great show.
Drinks were excellent, I didn't run out. Had to sleep in today! Thanks you CC,s”

“Great food and service Ricardo our favorite”

“Had breakfast..very good and waitress was very very nice. Did not wait long for our food..price were okay. Equivalent to other places..
We had a big group our waitress did a fantastic job”

“Melissa is amazing!! Super friendly and great at her job. She remember who i was from a recent visit and remember how i liked my sub. Wish their was more people at the store like her!! 10/10 would recommend”

“Very cool place to hangout with friends and have a good time with great music”

“Love this place! Always fast, friendly service and great food!”

“I love Virginia coney island. However, I really wish they would use better quality hotdogs, or at least offer them. I'd happily pay extra for a Koegel's.”

“Easy to find location!
Plenty of parking options!
Loads for 😋 yummy options on the menu!
Just wish the prices weren't so expensive!

Will be back soon!”

“Incredibly talented, easy to communicate with, and reasonably priced. The cookies for our themed wine tour / girls trip were the best!”

“Been to the Ganson St Store for lunch. Coney's were great the onions Rings were delicious and my waitress was fantastic in both times I was there for lunch. Both was April 2024”

“Friendly, casual bar welcoming patrons who enjoy a diverse social environment featuring TV sports, billiards, darts, DJ Trivia, Keno, a quality "bar food" menu and ice-cold drinks. Also featured: karaoke Fridays, occasional live bands and festive holiday celebrations.”

“My husband tried some he bought at Polly's and made sushi with the rainbow trout and said it was some of the best fish he's had. He is excited to buy in person next time.”

“My husband and I love this Biggby! It's definitely the best one in Jackson. We go out of our way to get our drinks from this location. The staff is so friendly and our drinks are always made great. Kenna is the sweetest! She is so nice and personable. She always goes out of her way to talk to our son and he loves seeing her.”

“I’m a student at the University of Michigan that lives down the street in Jackson (commuting student). Naturally, I love the occasional Zingerman’s sandwich in Ann Arbor, and when I saw that this place offers sandwiches on their bread, I knew this place had to be fantastic in quality! I was not disappointed! The staff was so friendly, new facility so cute and comfy! I tried the minestrone and the tuna sandwich. Amazing! I would confidently go as far as to say Jackson has a Zingerman’s of their own - maybe even better ;)! I’m so happy to have this at home, I will be back for my next fix!”

“My wife and I tried Healthy Vibes for the first time today. We LOVED the place! We were looking for a healthy shake with lots of protein and the we were very pleased. The owner served us, and she was personable, pleasant and asked great questions so we got just what we needed. The taste was fantastic, and we are going back soon. Its a great choice for a healthy, tasty shake!”

“Great food! Best BBQ in Jacktown!”

“The coneys i ordered were 100x better than i expected them to be, they are more than just a coney! the staff were very active on asking me if i needed anything. if i lived in jackson id easily be there twice a week! i am very ecstatic with the overall perfoance!.”

“Two separate clerks at two separate locations within the store stepped up to assist me today. They will never know how much their help meant to me. Thank you. You demonstrated kindness that cannot be taught.”

“Great food and service Ricardo our favorite”

“My food was amazing. Huge portions and incredibly affordable. Gorgeous!”

“i absolutely LOVE this place i used to go there all the time (i moved away) and miss this place SO much it’s so good!! i will stand by this place until i die ?”

“Fun place! I always have a good time there!”

“I have gotten the grilled cheese birria probably twenty times and it's the best thing I've eaten in my entire life. 100% recommend.”

“Attended the Rejuvenated event in Jackson, MI. Great event! Packed full but still fun and very interactive! Family friendly but still a little rowdy!”

“best job i've ever had, amazing management and friendly environment.”

“Top notch staff, robust menu and great vibes. This is a date night spot on the edge of town with all the bar amenities and fun without the downtown drama. While this isn't a "beach bar" once inside you feel like you're at an oceanside/lakeside bar.”

“I love West Texas BBQ! I have ordered the Thanksgiving meal for 16 the last couple of years. I have tried other places and was not pleased, mac n Cheese matters, flavor and moistness of the turkey matters. I love the extra options of meat in case someone happens to dislike Turkey. After trying West Texas, it’s hands down the best and make your gathering delicious, allows more time to make memories and enjoy your family!❤️”

“Delicious coffee, great service. I always see someone great every time I stop.”

“Sally did an amazing job with our son’s 1st birthday cookies! They looked so cute! She also made the process easy and stress free especially when communicating regarding questions or anything else we needed.”

“I came into parnall rd Biggby on Friday Jan 17 for my normal daily coffee, Lg iced Butter Bear with that extra shot exceptional as always. Today was amazing the staff member who is there everyday Shawna greeted me instantly when I arrived at the window as always with a smile on her face ready and willing to take on the day no matter what time it is. Between her with the exceptional service as always and the coffee being spot on every time I no longer go to any other locations this will forever be my home. This location has great customer service and quality drinks. I would definitely give a 5/5.”

“Good atmosphere! Great staff!”

“I visit here about once a week every month for work, the older bartender/ waitress has always been amazing very attentive and polite but this new girl that's only there a couple nights is typically rude and very inattentive, she's taken my food from me while I was still eating this week. It can take 20 minutes before I get a drink and theres only 3 people at the bar, she's always on her phone, sitting on the bar or vaping and hitting on some of the male guest. The foods always been great even when they run off yet another chef from the kitchen. Management doesn't seem to like the staff that's been there a long time and are always there smiling and welcoming to the guests. All in all and good place to eat and right on the main floor of the hotel”

“They have assisted us with our cake needs several times since our wedding in 2023. They made my husband’s birthday cake and our gender reveal cake. Just a wonderful person who provides our family with the gluten free cakes of our dreams! :)”

“We had a delicious early breakfast. Chad and Emma were excellent servers”

“Great place to eat! Nice friendly people.. Buffet was great..Price was reasonable!”

“My mom and I ate there this morning and the staff was super friendly and on top of refilling our drinks and was quick to take our orders and all of the food was delicious and their prices are very the reasonable. The restaurant itself was cute but inviting and I will happily be back here in the future many more times! highly recommend!:)”

“Brass Rail has new ownership which is phenomenal and the majority of the bar staff is great. There is one bar maid that believes because she is well endowed that she can speak to older people and females any which way. They need to get rid of her and it would be completely 5 stars.”

“consistent drinks every time, does matter if it is frozen, hot or iced. it always tastes delicious and they all use the same amount of flavor, cream sugar ect. that makes it the best! quick, friendly service.”

“Huge shout out to Miranda!! 😁 Totally made my day. Sandwich was perfection 👌 😋 She's always smiling and makes sure she tells me hi. I love it. Puts a smile on my face. 😁😁”

“I'm a doordasher and urber eats driver and they treated me nice and me in and out and made everything correct so I can only imagine what they do for the general public, keep up the great work!”

“Been to the Ganson St Store for lunch. Coney's were great the onions Rings were delicious and my waitress was fantastic in both times I was there for lunch. Both was April 2024”

“The best food around!!!. I order from here with DoorDash or I pick it up myself. My order is always right, fresh and top quality vegetables. I always order 2 spring rolls and vegetable lomein with mushrooms & garlic.”

“Ordered delivery for the first time rather than pick up. The driver seemed annoyed that he forgot my salad and when he suggested bringing it back I said OK. Once he brought it back it was simply that a salad in a bag no silverware no dressing no croutons. I understand mistakes happen. That’s two in the same transaction. Common sense says to grab necessities for items ordered. I always tip decently hoping that the person(s) put in extra effort and they don’t. Now I’m left with a dry AF salad and no 🍴 anyway 🤦 *get yourself together people. Put some effort in to your job. You will get respect because we notice when you’ve done a great job. *”

“Power was out in half of the city of Jackson and this location was extremely busy. I came in with a very large order for our team and your staff was courteous and helpful!! they were hustling and kind at the same time! thank you!”

“I absolutely love the girls here! They always greet me with a smile and always know my order and make it right every time! This is the only location I’ll go to because I know my stuff will be made right every time! Katie the manager is the biggest sweetheart she always says hi to me when she’s working!! Vandercook biggby is the best ever and makes the drinks soo good no matter what drink you get 💜”

“Stopped in this morning for the BOGO deal to grab a latte for myself & a red bull creme freeze for my friend. The staff were very friendly & provided quick, efficient service. Definitely will be returning :)”

“The lady behind the counter is amazing! She is there Monday through Friday until 4pm.
She is attentive, caring, and funny. She even wrapped my sandwich separately when I told her I was going to eat half of it later on. She deserves the world!”

“We aren’t often near a LJS, so when we had the opportunity today, we stopped and dined in. We were greeted with friendly and professional service, the dining room was clean and comfortable. our food was delivered to our table with care, and our meals were delicious. Fun fact: we’ve been married 34 years, and used to dine at LJS on dinner and movie date night. At 18-19yrs old, this was a big night! Thank you!”

“Very very good food!
Quiet and welcoming atmosphere.
Excellent waitress who provided exceptional service!! I wish I could remember her name because she deserves praise!

Highly recommend stopping here!

Parking: 2 entrances/exits”

“Good atmosphere! Great staff!”

“I’ve been coming here for so long I have never been disappointed I have always been greeted friendly and I love this place... every time I go out of town I stop here before I leave ❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“This was the absolute fasted i have ever received food, i didn’t even have time to fill my drink before my food was done, Gracen did amazing with service and speed and my food came out great too!”

“Just wanna say the take care of there customers. Had a mixup with an order and the manager handled it exceptionally. Altho I did come in to get it replaced and was told they wasn't sure what I was talking about. The manager took down my number and got to the root of it and took the time out of her day to give me a call and make things right. Thank you”

“New Country China Buffet is my go-to spot. The staff—especially the boss lady and waitresses—are always warm, welcoming, and helpful. The food is consistently fresh and served hot, which is perfect for my unpredictable schedule as a realtor. No matter when I drop in, I know I’ll get a satisfying meal and great service. I highly recommend this restaurant.”
