it was my first time at this restaurant and it was a great experience from the moment i entered to the end when i paid my bill. i had the six ways oysters which represent a combination of oysters from the east and west coast. also sampled the yellow tail crudo and fried octupus. everything was well done and very tasty. bravo to chef brandon. the staff was very attentive and helpful in explaining each item. i highly recommend this restaurant to all new yorkers!!

what a special spot. i absolutely LOVED everything about this place. intimate decor, delicious food, great service. all you need for a great restaurant. i've taken my fiance and my friends there at different times for their birthdays, and have left the restaurant with a big smile and a happy stomach. fantastic wine selection, oysters are soo fresh and so delicious. i've always had the pre fix, i think it's the best value. you really get a taste of what this restaurant is about. the chef is cooking for the whole restaurant behind the bar. it bring dinning to a whole new level of experince to be able to talk to the chef while he's cooking YOU your meal explaining the dish.. I'm surprised ny mag critic didn't give any stars to Jack's. i would always go back to Jack's.
