Jack Mackerels Island Grill offers friendly service, delicious fresh food, and refreshing drinks in a cozy, well-lit atmosphere. The restaurant is popular for its seafood dip, mussels, ciabatta bread, and Alfredo pasta, which are highly recommended. The shrimp and grits are considered outstanding by many customers. Guests have praised the Shrimp Alfredo and shrimp po boy as excellent, and the chicken tenders are noted as the best ever. The veggies served are also perfect, making it a great experience overall. The staff is welcoming and pleasant, contributing to a lively crowd, especially in the summer. During peak seasons, there may be a wait, but the quality of the food makes it well worth it. The location is close to the beach, making it a convenient stop after visiting attractions like the aquarium. Guests often enjoy the relaxed vibe, which combines a cozy sports bar and beach bar atmosphere. The outdoor patio is pet-friendly, allowing customers to dine with their dogs, and the friendly staff go out of their way to make everyone feel comfortable. The restaurant has a nice rooftop bar, but guests should be aware that there are stairs to the bathroom. Overall, Jack Mackerels remains a favorite spot for delicious food and great service.
