Best bar in the area. Good food and good service. Don't expect a quiet chill bar, this place is loud and crazy

Great appetizers, great food, great drinks, great service.

I went here with my family and we had a great time. Our poor waitress was clearly running a section too big for her, and said something about being understaffed, but she was still so calm and sweet. She gave us wonderful service, they provided me with a mocktail as I’m still breastfeeding, and the food was very tasty. It was a 108° heat index on the day we came and they had these huge ceiling fans going that quickly cooled us off after coming inside. I will definitely be back, especially on a hot day!

There is plenty of room to sit drink/dine at the bar or table service.

I feel like management needs to have a talk with the girls who work here… These ladies act like they hate their job. They don't smile & don't have any type of conversation. I worked in the service industry and no matter how i was feeling i always made it a priority to make sure guests were having a good experience.. if you cant even pretend to like where you work maybe its time to move on :( food is good but dont really feel welcome.

The food is great but it's so loud in there the waitresses can't even hear your drink orders, we went in on a Friday and Saturday. Friday was okay but our Saturday waitress was extremely rude because she misheard my husband's order (twice) insisting that he ordered the wrong item and not her mishearing what his order was, then service took forever. A suggestion would be to turn your music down so your staff can hear people!

Gator Jakes is one of the best bar/restaurants in the area!!! Awesome food, great specials and delish drinks. The wait staff and bartenders are always so nice and efficient. The Hurricane burger is one of the best burgers I have had. The atmosphere is always fun and there are tons of televisions to watch sports. Stop in there soon!!!!

Wouldn't recommend going here. The staff is rude and lazy. The food is mediocre at best.
