The food is overpriced for the portion sizes. Had a sandwich that had next to no meat on it and very little in the way of vegetables, basically just a bread.
Also the sandwich was listed as $9 on the menu but when I got the bill it had changed to a $10 sandwich. When I pointed this out it was corrected but if I had not looked at the bill I would have been overcharged. Wonder how many other customers were overcharged and did not realize it.
Had the shrimp tacos .... Ugh ! Why was the shrimp fried ??? The shrimp looked like artificial crab sticks.. Ive never seen shrimp look like that but ok ... It was ok just ok .. A lot of people were ordering Sushi, Interesting to say the least ... Im sure this place is jumping at night with a live band and all but the food I dont know  .... **Military Discount**
Review Source:New to Pascagoula, I was driving around looking for someplace where I could internet and have dinner...I don't know what it was, but there was a vibe about this place that got me to stop there over any other place.
Whatever that vibe was, it was right on. The bartender welcomed me and introduced himself, they have my favorite beer (Hoegaarden) on tap (along with Guinness, Bass and some others that don't matter because I love a black and tan also), and a creative and surprising food menu.
On top of that, there's good space, bar games (pool and the salt-shuffleboard thing) and reliably good music, according to the schedule I saw.
Overall everything I like in a bar, I don't know if I'll go anywhere else in P-Goula.
From 10/12/11 visit
Arrived to find that the place was rather busy for a Wednesday night. I waited at the bar for 5 minutes before anyone took my drink order and handed me a menu. No suggestions on rolls were offered however. I feel that if you are new and looking to wow customers, you offer up the best that you have up front. Drink specials? If there were any I didn't know. Happy hour? Anything?
Issue #1
I waited 27 minutes for the Ruby Ruby roll. Time confirmed from the moment I checked in on google+ until it arrived. Â Thankfully,my food landed in front of me after I asked for someone to check on my order. I was ready to pay for my beer and go to Edd's. I'm not one to complain to staff relentlessly.
Issue#2
The presentation of the roll was ok. It looked like it had been sitting for a while as I suspected. The tuna  (see photo) really did not have any flavor. The description on the menu stated spicy tuna, it wasn't spicy at all. In fact, the roll did not seem to match the description on the menu. Something seemed to be missing.
I saw the shrimp tails, which is how I knew the shrimp was in the roll. The rice seemed dry. Half of the roll was not rolled tightly. Â The tempura shrimp was fried in breadcrumbs instead of tempura batter. There was no crunch to it. The shrimp was cold and tough, tasteless.
Issue#3
I left smelling like the restaurant. To me this suggests ventilation issues. If you've ever eaten at Chef Scott's, you know what I am talking about.
I've had sushi up and down the coast. I do not consider myself a 'sushi snob', but I've had better and more for the price. This place has specialty rolls, so do not expect smaller, more basic rolls that you'd find elsewhere. Prices for rolls range from $7 to 13 (tax included). They need to work on freshness, technique, and presentation. Just because it is a 'southern sushi juke joint', doesn't mean I should feel as if the food was thrown together.
The winning aspect of Jack's is the atmosphere. I would give it a 3 for now until I see what it is like when a performer is in house. There is a large bar area and even larger separate, sit down dining area in the back. Blues and jazz were pipped through the speakers. A nice stage area up front. This place has potential. I would probably come back in a few months in hopes that the kinks are worked out. Â In the meantime, I will get my sushi fix elsewhere on the coast.
However, I am very glad to see the downtown Pascagoula area growing and hope Jack's is a success.
