We came for our son's high school graduation and had a table for 9. Our server was friendly and efficient. The food and drinks were delicious and the Mud Pie always a treat. Thank you for making it a special day for our family.

Our server, Lucy, was exceptional!! Delicious seafood chowder and prawns appetizer. Very good Caesar salad. All 4 entrees we had were amazing. Short ribs, double lobster, filet and lobster and another steak. Forgot to mention the calamari with outstanding sauce. Only downside was the valet was full so it cost us $50 (2 cars) to park. That is a hefty price tag for parking. Still was a very memorable birthday dinner for my husband.

Very nice place very beautiful views. The food was mid… my wife had the mix seafood pot and it did not taste like it did when we first went. This time it just tasted like tomato sauce with lobster flavor very bland. She didn’t even eat it. I ordered the surfing steak and the steak was half fat and half steak which was disappointing. I will probably give this place one more chance, but I don’t think I can recommend it to anyone at this moment.

Enjoy Jake’s we are usually at the bar but choose a table for the occasion. Great service as always, tacos were excellent, disappointed with the burger, bun was over toasted and the meat under cooked.
