I have been there many times and this was the first time that the visit was not enjoyable. The service was very poor, the food was brought to the table but nobody had brought the utensils for us to eat and the food was not hot.

September 2025

Atmosphere was unlike any of the other Jack astors I’ve been to, it was so lively and cozy, I just loved it! The staff was so amazing, the only name I caught from the many people to help us was Nick but he was so kind, so friendly.

August 2025

No hostess at the front to greet people walking in, waited 10 minutes and still nothing, server walked by us looking clueless and did not bother to help, called the restaurant from inside the restaurant, still no answer, then finally 2 hostesses came at once and we were finally seated at our table. Very poor start to dinner but the rest was flawless: food, service, atmosphere and value. We almost left, but glad we didn't. Way to recover, that was a close one!
