Service was terribly slow in the dining room. More attention seemed to be centered around the men in the bar area!!
The food is good and service as well. But sitting in the bar is too loud. Clearly caters to the golf members and no regard for people who come to dine and are not golfers. The main dining room looks like a banquet hall. All rounds tables and no ambiance at all. They are open to the public for dinning and they need to cater to those ppl too. Happy hour is from3-5? Ppl are at work during those hours and only golfers hanging out can take advantage of those crazy hours. Most restaurants and bars offer happy hour 5-7. Seems they don't want to extend happy hour to too many ppl to take advantage of it.
Local spot for a happy hour and great meal. Greeted warmly, followed by friendly , knowledgeable service . Menu provides options from appetizers to delicious entrees and more. Bar is well stocked . Perfect after golf or for gathering with friends.
Tried the pork chop and it was awesome! Big thick cut bone in chop cooked perfectly! I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. My wife ordered the wedge salad with steak and the steak was good portion and cooked perfectly medium rare. The wings are some of the best around. I highly recommend getting wings. We like the Sweet tai chili and the garlic teriyaki the best but the buffalo wings are great too!

We stumbled upon this restaurant through some Google searching. They were having a lobster bake, but truthfully most of our party wishes we tried the main menu (which seemed to be a better value).
Not a bad restaurant by any means, but we did feel out of place in the country clubhouse and expected a little more value on the lobster bake pricing (again, a rare event they were hosting so sorry it's what we have to judge on).

Mother's Day brunch featured a delicious variety of breakfast and lunch items that all the members of my party really enjoyed. The venue is lovely with beautiful landscaping and views.
I was among a party of three this evening at Judds and Jacksons for their Easter buffet. The quality of food and selection was great, just as it had been at their Thanksgiving buffet and New Year’s Eve event. There was thick juicy sliced ham and roast beef, a selection of vegetable and pasta dishes, a spread of salads and a sweet dessert table. The dining room has a nice atmosphere.
During our first time up at the buffet, an 86 year-old member of our party made a personal comment to me about how one of the soup’s looked like dog food. It wasn’t the best comment, and apparently someone nearby took offense. During our second trip back to the buffet, another diner- a complete stranger- called this member of our party a slang word for a female dog, and then explained why. We felt uncomfortable and intimidated. I expressed my concern to a hostess, who promised to send someone to speak to us to work this out- except they never did. Having to make repeated trips back to our table past this other diner made us uncomfortable.
I spoke to a well-intentioned but happily apathetic manager who said that there were two sides to the story. His comparison of the two comments was offensive. I understand that the soup comment was inappropriate, and that restaurants cannot control what their customers say either way. But how could someone not speak up after having their girlfriend/wife/mother/grandmother/loved one called a “female dog?”
The restaraunt's dismissive response spoke volumes to their handling of disputes and respect toward women. The staff did nothing to make her feel better, nor did they even bother to check in or talk to her. For a dinner that came to over $200 for the three of us, with gratuity included, we expected to be treated better than that.

Easter Brunch- well organized, great selection of food. Food was great. Overall great experience,
Our first experience Dino g here was really great. This is a large banquet facility. The restaurant part is in the bar area mostly, with many TVs, although there was a large area  that was set up adjacent to the bar with a few diners. It felt pretty empty in general. The service was fantastic and the food was delicious. Entrees ordered were Chicken Marsala , power bowls with proteins, hamburgers, and crab cake sandwich. We were a party of 6, and were seated at a perfect round table- often hard to find! We'll definitely return.  This is in the original country club building, not the manor across the street. You drive thru a new development to get to the building, and there's no signage, which would be very helpful. It feels like you've made a mistake until you walk thru doors to get to the bar.
All 6 of us were very happy with our meal. We started with drinks- Espresso Martini, Peach Martini, several Old Fashions, and Wine. Salads and a couple of Soup of the day soups were all very good. Entrees we tried were Salmon, Chicken Parmesan, Veal (Bone-in) Parmesan and Braised Short Rib. All excellent! We ended with some dessert and again were all very happy with our choices. The waitress was very attentive and always there when we needed her. It was a very pleasant evening with delicious food!

They really did it nice for Valentine's Day. Tables were All Covered with red table covers and ambience with each table having lighting. Gave it a nice experience to celebrate.
Judd and Jackson always provides a good setting for Valentine's Day dinner. The dining room is set to allow comfortable space between diners, and the tables are thoughtfully decorated for the occasion. Lobster bisque soup was tasty, bacon wrapped shrimp were nicely prepared. The filet was tender and tastefully seasoned with asparagus and mashed potatoes.
We ate in the the board area. TVs around which we enjoy. 5 of ate. All enjoyed meals and drinks. Service is superior. Food is very good.
Worst experience. Service very slow. Waitress was sick and coughing around us and while delivering food. Waiting over an hour to get what we ordered. Will not be going back
We typically enjoy this restaurant but the last 2 times we have been disappointed. I ordered the fish special. The fish was very tough and I needed a fork and knife to cut it like a piece of average steak. The wedge salad had old lettuce leaves and was partially non edible. The waitress was new and nice, but forgot to bring us bread, water and it took 22 minutes to get one mixed drink. I am not sure I want to give this a third try. Is this under new management?
