   Nice place. Will go back. Food very good. Prices somewhat high for the value. Waiter very nice but had too many tables ao service was slow. Two hours for a dinner that should be a little over an hour.

   Father’s Day Dinner. Arrived on time and was told our table was getting ready and to hang in the lounge area. There were plenty of open tables but okay. Ordered three drinks, two of which came out right away. The third I checked in on after 20 mins and the bartender apologized and said he forgot. Checked back to see if our table was ready and the hostess said oh yes, it’s ready now. It’s the table right behind the check in area, no views and loud. This table was open when I first checked in not sure why we had to wait in the lounge area for so long. Our waitress was very nice, we ordered quickly however our food: two soups and two steaks took over an hour. The food was mediocre at best and only ate 1/4 of it. We couldn’t get out of there fast enough. The best they could do after complaining was a couple free desserts to take home. This was our first and probably last time there.

   The restaurant is nee and stylishly decorated. We started in the lounge, whxih has a comfortable bar and table seating. It’s a fulll bar and they also have a menu of soecialty drinks. In addition there are some food selectins there. We were seated at a window tsble with a view of the beach and the bay. The highlight was the aoecial Tomahawk Steak we shared. It came with yellow heirloom tomatoes, green and yellow sauash and mushrooms. The steak was placed on a bead of bread. The bread soaked up the steak juoces and was delicious. The chef deluvered it to our table and checked in on us after we were finished with our meal. Overall the experience was excellent and worth it.

    I went to Jack O Neill’s with my Mom on our 3 day vacation to Santa Cruz ti stay at the Dream Inn! The whole ambiance of this place was decadent! The view from the window was awesome! The food was so utterly good and there was several things on the menu that I would love to try next time I come. The service was outstanding! One of the best meals I’ve ever had! I will definitely be returning again soon!

    We ate brunch and dinner here recently to celebrate a college graduation. The views of the ocean are spectacular, the service is first rate, the food is terrific and the portions are generous. I recommend the clam chowder, the salads, the eggs Benedict, the fish tacos, the huervos rancheros, the falafel sandwich, the duck appetizer, the breast of duck main course, the short rib and the fish catch of the day. Highly recommended restaurant.

    Menu somewhat limited: Not much for vegan/vegetarians. Appetizers not that exciting and small. While food was delicious, thought it was priced higher than should be be for quality and value. Service was very good. Attentive but not too much. Allowed us to relax and enjoy our evening. View is excellent.

    I was so impressed with my visit to Jack O’Neil’s. The staff was incredible, attentive, and kind and the food was out of this world. Hands down some of the best food I’ve eaten in a restaurant in years! The crab cakes were absolutely to die for. Beautiful handcrafted pasta. Amazing seared scallops. Delish! 10/10 will recommend and will be returning for a future visit!

    We enjoyed our experience here. The food was good. We both had the clam chowder to start with, which was very tasty, the portions were large. Our main course was the Chicken Caesar Salad. Again, large portions. The chicken was very good; however, overall the salad was rather bland. The restaurant was comfortable, the view was spectacular and the service was great. Give it a try!

    Really lovely. We were not against the window but the views from both sides were still stunning. Our waiter was fantastic. I apologize for not remembering his name but he was sporting a beard and had light/reddish hair. He was funny while good at his job. Food was delicious. All three of us enjoyed our meals: lentils, ribeye and duck. We will never forget this meal because of our positive experience and the fact that Jack O’Neill happens to be the name of our son’s (who was with us) best friend. When in the area again, we will definitely be back!

    Excellent views and service. Unfortunately, Saturday at 1pm was only the Brunch menu and dinner menu was offered at 5:30pm. Had the soup which was tasty but went somewhere different for something more filling. We will go back just need to plan around the menu.

    Last night in town so we wanted to have a nice dinner with a view. We had reservations and were immediately seated and soon we had a bottle of wine at our table. For an appetizer we had an order of their Almond Crusted Mussels, and they were prepared very different, but they were very good. For dinner my wife had the Scallops, and they were well seasoned and cooked perfectly. I had the Prawns & Pasta, and it was a very hearty tasty dish. Our waiter (Ricky) stayed on top of things without being overbearing. Nice atmosphere with live acoustic music on Friday night, overall good food, and service, we would definitely go back.

    The hostess was great. We arrived too early and she handled our reservation with no problem. The server was very attentive, described the menu options perfectly, came by frequently enough to check on us and was very pleasant. The food dishes were just okay. The salmon on a bean stew bed was not great. Salmon was cooked just fine but the rest of the dish had little taste. Other folks in the party thought their food was fine, short ribs, and crab cakes, but nothing outstanding.

    This is a truly special restaurant with a very talented chef. Nothing ordinary about this wonderful place. The wild salmon was among the best I have ever had. The duck toast was amazing, if a tiny bit too salty.
