    We have been going to Jake’s for over 25 years and, literally hundreds of times. In all of those times we have never had a bad meal, always got excellent service and always left feeling like it was a great time. Happy anniversary to John, our server, for his 30th anniversary. Thank you for a memorable evening.

    The ability to add a lobster tail to any dish is great. Had the halibut special and added the lobster tail. Super delicious.
