I have not been here for a very long time after becoming disillusioned with both the food and service in the past. Well, today a friend had a bogo meal coupon so we decided to check it out and see if things had changed. The answer was a resounding yes. They had a new upscale sports bar type decor, I was especially fond of the TV in every booth, the menu looked good, good variety and reasonable prices. We were both very please with the meals. The service was fantastic. I am very glad we decided to give mad jacks another shot and will definitely be back.
Review Source:Last time I was at Mad Jack's, I had their Fish & Chips. They were Tilopia Fish & Chips. When I got them , there were there brown spots in the fish. (No Thank You)
I returned it then a "Manager" came by and told me that the fish is "edible". I had the dry-rub wings instead. Much better. If you like Fish & Chips. Look elsewhere.
We moved out of the area but went back last night after a long hiatus. Â I don't know... everything was fine, but really just mediocre.
Our waitress seemed like she'd rather be anywhere else than working that night. Â She did a fine job but just seemed really ho-hum about everything. Â
The food was also just fine. Â My taco salad was disappointing for $10, half of the plate was stale tortilla chips which I pulled off immediately, leaving me with maybe $6 worth of actual salad.
Sweet potato tots were still good!
I think we're over this place. Â It seemed great before but we don't feel the need to return.
Four of us grabbed drinks and apps here couple weeks ago. The place was slow but the atmosphere was clean and nice. The food was really good, the drinks were also good. From start to finish this was a good place. It wasn't amazing but come on, not every place can be. If you thinking about happy hour or sports bar this is your place.
Review Source:We went to Mad Jacks last night when we found ourselves in a part of town where it seems there are few sit down restaurants. We ambled in to Mad Jacks and were expecting to wait for awhile since it was a Friday around seven. We were told that we would be sat immediately and that they just needed to wipe down a table. Two minutes later we were in our seats. The atmosphere was nice, reminded me of what Gaston's pub from Beauty and the Beast would be like in real life. Twins game was on and we were happy campers.
We were immediately thrilled to see sweet potato tots on the menu. What in the world could be better than that statement!? We ordered those and some drinks to start out. Our server, Stephanie, was sweet and friendly. We pointed out to her that one of the words on the menu was spelt horribly wrong and she chuckled and said, "Oh! How embarrassing!" and laughingly told the manager. Yup, we were those people that night. She took our orders and we did not wait long at all for the food. The tots were as we thought they would be, AWESOME!!!
I ordered the salmon and was bowled over by the awesome flavor. Unfortunetly, my salmon was not fully cooked and was a littel mushy in the middle. I pointed it out to my server and within a couple minutes the manager was at our table, explaining to me that the salmon is normally soaked in a brine for 24 hours, but this batch did not get soaked for that entire time and therefore didn't get cooked all the way through. He apologized and said he had already taken it off of our bill. I told him that was not necessary and that I had really loved it, but he insisted that he wanted us to return and have a good experience. Well, mission accomplished!
We plan on going back and trying some of the other items on the menu since we each had trouble picking just one. It sounds like happy hour is the time to go, so we will have to check that out too!
Try this place. The menu is extensive, the staff friendly and the food and drinks were positoovely delish!
LOVE the sweet potato tots!
LOVE the full gluten free menu!
LOVE the service!
Been here several times and consistently great food and service. Best gluten free menu we've found in the cities.
Had kabob and smoky jack burger in past and tonight we had chicken artichoke sandwich and BBQ chicken sandwich. Great seasoning on everything
I won't be visiting Mad Jacks again. Three friends and I were lured to Mad Jacks on their 3 course meal for 2 people for $25 as advertised on their website. We arrived to find out that they have raised the price to $30. Meh, disappointing bait and switch, but not enough to walk away.
We start off the night with a round of drinks; one friend's beer glass had not been washed out properly as the beer tasted like sucking on a soap bar. She asked for a different beer and with some argument, she did get a second beer, which did taste better. Mad Jacks did refund the price of the first beer.
The appetizers came and they were ok, not bad but not something to write home about. Waitress asked everyone individually if they wanted a refill for their drink. People that said no were asked twice for confirmation on their decision. I don't know about you, but this annoyed me to no end.
Main course was horrible. Everyone was disappointed with their food. My chicken fettuccine was the worst I've ever had; I didn't even finish 1/4 of the serving. The chicken was extremely dry, the side bread was burnt, and the sauce was very thin with zero flavor - almost like they had just poured milk onto noodles.
The dessert was good, I shared the Chocolate Mousse. If you do decide to visit Mad Jacks, the only thing I can recommend is this dessert.
Tab came and they did not discount to the $30 as advertised. We had to bring this to the attention of the waitress and she did fix the issue.
:sigh: I feel like I'm becoming a girl who spends her weekend in the suburbs. Really, I don't. But I DID happen to dine at Mad Jacks on Sunday night and they DID happen to have some really fantabulous happy hour specials.
Szechuan (sp?) green beans? Yes please.
Five bucks for a chicken flatbread? Uhm, YEAH.
Add some unlimited diet coke refills and some hockey on the flat screens and you have this girl's idea of a perfect Sunday date night.
Mad Jacks, I'll be back.
The food tasted decent and the prices were alright. Â Besides that, i got food poisoning from eating there. Â I was throwing up for almost 12 hours straight and at times i felt like i was going to die!! Â The other three people people in our party were fine, but we all ordered different things. Â Stay away from the bleu cheese!!!
Review Source:Mad Jack's isn't worth a special trip up here but if you're in the area, why not? Â
We live nearby and have been here several times - once with some friends but usually with just myself, my husband and the munchkin. Â I think the best way to summarize Mad Jack's is like this: when they get it right it is very right. Â When they get it wrong, they're all, "yeah, whatever." Â
The atmosphere is chic sports bar meets subtle north woods kitsch. Â The lighting is quite pretty and something about walking in the door immediately has me craving a Leinenkugel. Â Those damn deer antler chandeliers and the sweeping floor to ceiling fireplace get me every time.
There are flat screen TV's ensconced at every booth and playing the game of the minute that I like to think of dually as husband-attention-snatchers and baby-distraction-makers. Â He doesn't remember a word I say but I get to eat in peace while my pride and joy stares raptly at whatever game they're airing (ugh, she loves television...greeeaaaatttt...)
A few of the things I've tried here are the kebabs, the strawberry and feta salad, nachos and a burger. Â The ones that stand out the most in my memory were the salad and the nachos because of the option to add rotisserie chicken--one of the better food decisions I've made here! Â Jack's rotisserie chicken is juicy and has good flavor.
Service can be a bit of a crap shoot and as I alluded to before, if they make a mistake not a lot is done to rectify the error which leads me to believe that mistakes are so commonplace for some of these servers that it's easy to treat them with an annoyingly blasé attitude.  It sucks when that happens but when it doesn't, Jack's isn't half bad. Â
Added bonus: things are loud and boisterous in here so if your kid is the kind who gets their jollies off by banging stuff on the table, nobody will notice.
This restaurant is located right by Chipotle so even though it has been open for a while I finally decided to give up having a burrito one time and try something new.  Even though the parking lot is packed the place is pretty big inside.  Set up is nice with open kitchen and I think every booth had it's own flat screen tv. They definately didn't skimp on the tvs in this place!  I ordered the Big Blue Burger and Hubby ordered BBQ Chicken Sandwich.  The burger was good. Just enough of everything.  Tried  a bite of the chicken sandwich, pretty good, nothing special. It was shredded chicken instead of the chicken breast.  French fries were $1.00 extra - I guess that is the norm now as I notice everywhere I go they charge extra for fries.  There were many items on the menu that looked great so I would definately stop by here again.
