    Had a blast with good food, service, and views. I would highly recommend. Valet did a great job too and gave us 30mins to enjoy the beach for No extra charge.

    Great ambiance and good food. The menu is a bit pricy, but we would consider it again for a special occasion.

    I was hosting lunch with an out of town friend. We had great seats by the windows. Everything was great — food, service, ambiance. Excellent.

    We had lunch to celebrate my 80th birthday. We had a beautiful table at the window. We were going out to a big dinner that night so we just ordered the appetizer ribs, and the beet salad to share. It was just perfect and delicious. They brought me a piece of hula pie, which was huge and very much appreciated. Our waiter was wonderful, the food was delicious and we had a great day.  I highly recommend this restaurant.

    This was a birthday celebration. We came to Jake's because they do such a nice job for birthdays. There's a signed card at the table when you arrive and the dessert, Hula Pie or your choice is on the house. The Hula Pie is great and more than enough for 4. The service was exceptionally good. We drank a LOT of water and the glasses are smallish. Our server happily refilled water glasses many times, always with a smile. Food, as always was great!

    Our first time visiting Jake’s! The beautiful view is what brought us in! As well as it was our daughter’s 19th Birthday. They had a nice happy birthday card on the table when we arrived and a delicious hula pie for the birthday girl! We will def be back!

    Server was excellent, food was good but I would have preferred black beans with the huevos rancheros. It was very noisy and hard to hear my companion at times.
