    I have been coming to Jake’s since 1984 when I lived in town and when I visit… I don’t know how, but somehow, it’s still the same wonderful vintage yesterday year elegant restaurant. It has always been in the food remains superb. The service is impeccable. The Landry’s corporation has done a great job in allowing Jake’s to retain its unique and distinct personality.

    We ran late for our reservation due to traffic. They were so accommodating. Our waiter was wonderful -- very helpful, with ideas. Excellent calamari app and cocktails. The crab louie salad entree and the fried oysters were excellent and promptly served. There were a lot of diners, but the noise was very minimal. Great evening with my siblings!

    We went for a late lunch and sat in their bar. It was fantastic. Historic, great 1920's music and vibe...service was excellent and the food was better than any dinner I've had there in the past. Great experience.

    Our waitress was amazing. It was our daughter’s 12th birthday, and all of our adult kids were there as well, 13 people total. She was seriously fantastic. We didn’t wait for anything, if we did need something, she was there before we could ask!

    We took our 2 sons (ages 19 and 21) and 3 of their buddies with the intention of showing them how things were done back in the day..... Jake's is a great place to feast, to learn about history and to just have a great time. They loved the experience!
