   Five of us went to a celebration dinner at Jake's. Our server, Anthony, was great - attentive and efficient. Our food was not universally good. The pork chop and roast chicken were very good. The salmon was a little dry, and the batter on the fish and chips was very heavy. Disappointing for the price.

   Took a while before service. Ordered special only to find out after 20mins they had run out. Second choice was undercooked. Drinks were never refilled. Checkout was slow. Overall not what I expected

   Amazing dinner! We live downtown and eat out regularly. This was a great dining experience. The food, the service and the overall dinner was exceptional. Love the prime rib on the menu and thank you!

   Had an excellent dinner at Jake's before going to see Moulin Rouge at the Keller. Scheduled early reservation at 4:30 and arrived at 4:00 and they were happy to seat us then. Service and food were top quality. Highly recommend them for a special dinner!

   Excellent food and service. Our group was all over the menu, and from the steak, fish, and pork all items were prepared perfectly. Can’t speak highly enough of the Mac and Cheese. Prices were in line with other high end dining options in town. I can’t imagine anyone leaving dissatisfied if their experience is similar to ours.

    Dinner before a musical with my bestie. It was all fabulous! Food was perfect. Tasty and indulgent (aka high in luscious cheese). Bartender made me special drink that was delicious. And she was drinking the non alcoholics and proclaimed them the same. We laughed and ate and drank and it was a lovely evening. We also need to recommend our server - he was absolutely a delight! (And of course I cannot remember his name) Engaging and informative and fun. Could not ask for a better meal and company. I will be recommending Jake’s to everyone!

    Jakes was such a big disappointment! The list of problems with our experience is not brief. I’m planning on writing a letter to the owners instead of dressing them down in an online forum, but I would not recommend dining here. Overpriced for sub-standard food, watery drinks and unprofessional service.

    Weird interactions with staff from arrival with Host, then the server. The food was very good, the dining room table clothes were very wrinkled though, very surprisingly, I would have also expected a better trained staff on how to properly pour a $130 bottle of Champagne, server was friendly thought but ultimately it comes down to the expectations that comes with the place. We are locals, and we are not sure if we will give it another try.

    Jake’s is classic Portland. Old wood columns, aged tile floor, crisply uniformed staff, and a full breakfast that would make a lumberjack happy. Will return. Again.

    We had a wonderful pre New Years Eve dinner. The shrimp scampi and stuffed salmon were very tasty. The only issue was waiting a while for our drinks. The bar was slow.

    My food was cold, but the others at my table had steak and pork chops, i had salmon, it was cold. The waiter seemed very kind, but very busy, manager brought out food but no steak knives. I had made reservations for parents 51st anniversary, and felt like we were sitting in the bar, could see the bar and TV from my table, didn't do much for ambiance. It was okay, but didn't really feel worth the price tag for the experience.

    We have a tradition of going to Jake's on Christmas for dinner. This year was a disappointment. The service was great but the food fell short. Gummy risotto, undercooked steak. It may be time for a new tradition.

    We had a very expensive meal that was not good. We ordered Fillets…all were raw. They took them back and recooked the same meat which made it tough and unappetizing. Mashed potatoes were watery and over seasoned. Asparagus was covered in way too much sauce. Drink service was slow and the restaurant was freezing cold. Really unhappy with our meal…

    My dad ordered a filet mignon and it had so much gristle he could barely eat it. I have never experienced this in a filet. My NYstrip came out super rare, cold in the center. I ordered it MR. They brought my wife the wrong dish so she had to watch everyone eat while they made her correct order.

    Got there right when it opened and they got slammed right away. They referenced the rush and we were OK with this. Portions weren’t too huge. Quality was good…could have used a bit more hollandaise source. Only knock was the fact that they didn’t ask how my companions wanted there eggs prepared for the salmon house. We should have said something.

    Service very poor. Waitress rarely came back to deliver drinks. I never got my water refilled and another had to ask for some more. Meals didn’t arrive together. Yet same waitress had audacity to lay down the bill and ask us to pay it out right away. I still didn’t have my dessert even though others did! Noise very high.
