    Ned was absolutely incredible! We took our friend for her birthday and he made the experience 10/10. The food, the drinks, the staff and the ambiance make this place a go to from now on! I can’t wait to be back

    Both burgers had no sauce. I specifically requested pepper Jack on the one as well not Swiss. Disappointing to say the least, have been coming to Jack rabbit for years. First meal I’ve been upset with here.

    This was average bar food, nothing spectacular but did hit the spot. We had the pulled pork mac and cheese which was well seasoned, and the spinach artichoke dip that was slightly bland but still ok. Service was a bit slow, granted we did sit outside which could have contributed. The vibe was very cool and they did have some unique and tasty cocktails for a great price. I would go back if in the area, but likely wouldn’t go out of my way

    A wonderful place for Sunday Brunch! The bar does get overwhelmed when the doors first open, so we had to wait sometime for our Bloody Mary’s. They were delicious as was the food!

    Jack Rabbit is always a great time - there were four of us and we all ordered different meals and everyone was super happy with what they had ordered. Our server was great, they were friendly and attentive but gave us plenty of time to look over the menu. We were in the back of the restaurant and I would definitely say this is my preference. I had the guava mimosa and the loaded tots - I would have preferred slightly more champagne in my mimosa but it was still very good

    The water taste like it came from the bathroom sink. Service was excellent and friendly. The pizzas were good but the steak and broccoli were not what I expected. Steak was a bit dry and the broccoli tasted old.

    The ambiance is awesome, the different rooms are so cool! I got the chicken bacon ranch sandwich and the tator tots. The sandwich was delicious and the tots were so crunchy and well seasoned! I also tried the garlic mashed potatoes as an app, the gravy was so tasty and the skins in the potatoes made an amazing texture. The service was great, fast, attentive and not too chatty. I will definitely be back to be seated in another room! This place is very fun and eclectic. The prices were fair as well. Thank you for the great time for my birthday dinner!

    Very nice lunch. Our server was excellent. The Ahi Tuna Wrap might be a bit spicy for some. And I would not recommend the pork belly mac n cheese. Lots of mac but not too cheesy and not a lot of belly. The salads were excellent; huge and a generous amount of protein if you opt add to your salad. Thx Jack Rabbit for an overall good experience.
