We had an amazing experience at JB Hooks! The food was fantastic! We struggled with deciding what to order but our server Jake was very knowledgeable of the menu which made it easier. I went with the Salmon and my husband had the Walleye. No regrets! The service was amazing! If you get Jake as a server you’re in luck! We will be going back for sure!
Had a fabulous meal for second time. If you love steak like we do order the Omaha 1881 ... so good! Taylor K was the best - perfect amount of attention never had an empty drink - left in a happy little food coma! 😬
Anniversary
We were celebrating our 20th anniversary. The food was great although a little over priced in my opinion. Service was great. Taylor K was our waitress and she was great. Main complaint is that we referenced a special occasion when booking and no mention was made of it. Past few years we have done Baxter’s for our anniversary and they take your picture, put it in a nice card and give you a complimentary dessert. Not even a mention at JB Hooks. After a $200 dinner meal, we walked away feeling like it just another dinner. Yes, food was good but next time, we will go to Baxter’s for a special occasion. Unlike some people, spending that kind of money on a dinner is out of the norm and would have at least appreciated an acknowledgement of our special occasion which again, should have been noted in our reservation.
Outstanding food as always and love having Rick as our waiter. He is very attentive and anticipates every need.
Great good.
Every thing was great except for the garlic mashed potatoes. I personally did not like the extra spice.
Special occasion dinner date and we chose right coming to jb hooks. Food was phenomenal and the service by our waiter Jake was perfect. Ended our evening with some dessert martinis from the bar and are already looking forward to our next trip.
We came here for my 30th birthday. The food was amazing. I got the filet and lobster, both were fantastic. The lobster tail was huge and had great flavor. The filet was tender and cooked perfectly. My husband had the prime rib and said it was very good. Our server, Jake, gave us excellent service. He was very friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend!
Always a great dinner at JB Hooks. Marty was our waitress, had excellent recommendations and was very friendly. Love this place!
The food was outstanding with a great selection. Our wait staff was exceptional and friendly.
Our server was Jimmy G., and he was great! He made great recommendations for my kids.
A thank you dinner for some dear friends who helped paint our condo. Very fun evening.
Honestly I was blown away by the quality of our food and love the ambience and the service is great we will definitely be coming back often!
JB Hooks is our favorite upscale dining restaurant whenever we are at the lake. The food is excellent, servers are always very attentive and the views of the lake are amazing! They also have a great happy hour on the bar side of the restaurant with appetizer and drink specials and live music. Try it out, you won’t be disappointed!
The food was delicious. Our server was Taylor K. #10 she was fantastic. We will definitely visit JB Hooks again.
2ND TIME IN IN THE LAST 60 DAYS
BOTH TIMES WE FELT FOOD QUALITY WAS VERY SUBPAR FOR THE PRICE
VERY DISSAPPOINTED
Never a bad experience and service tonight by Jake was a nice enhancement.
Our server (Jake) was one of the best, most attentive and kind servers we've ever experienced. Very professional with great presentation and communication skills. We can only hope we have him again the next time we go back...and we will go back! The ambiance and atmosphere was wonderful! Not loud like a bar but very quiet and romantic, just like I requested for my husband's birthday celebration. The food was very flavorful and wonderfully presented.
Maxwell did a great job as our server was very attentive
Dinner was great! The Sea Bass special was spectacular. Maxwell, our server, was wonderful as usual.
Can’t wait to go back again!!
Outstanding food and service as usual.
My daughters birthday
Steaks were not prepared as ordered, but meal was excellent otherwise.
We had another wonderful meal Friday night. Anthony was our server and he was great. The girls at the front door (Olivia and Maggie) were very helpful and quick to get us a table.
Lobster tail best ever
Good food, good atmosphere, good view of the lake (even after sunset!)
The lobster tail was the best I have ever had. Taylor K was a great server. The food came out quickly and everything tasted great. Highly recommend.
Jake was a fantastic waiter. Really enjoyed the Expresso Martinis and appetizers. Thanks for a great evening.
Johnny G. Was an excellent server, very accommodating. Food was great, a little expensive but I guess that is the price for a first class establishment. Overall a great experience for my wife and I. We had King Crab and Prime Rib with a plate of raw oysters.
Music background was/is inappropriate for such a superb dinning venue. The music by the "supremes" was annoying. Why not select music that is soft and romantic such as piano solo music or music by Kool and Clean etc?
We had a wonderful dinner at JB Hooks. The scallops and filet were awesome. Our waiter, Jake, was smoother than Cheese Wiz in serving us. Jake is the “big buck” of the dining room coordinating our service needs with the other wait staff on his team. There aren’t any antlers being shed here, just a wonderful dining experience and a great way to start 2021!
Came in for dinner had steak and stuffed tail! It was amazing along with our service. Taylor did a wonderful job! Will be back and requesting her!
Marty was amazing to have as our server. Made sure we had refills and anything we needed to make our date night memorable.
Our server, Marty was great. She made several recommendations that made our dinner great. Food was prepared well.
We had an awesome time, our food was perfect, my husband had the Omaha filet and I had the Ahi Tuna. Our server Taylor K was spot on with service and checking on us enough without it feeling like too much or too little.
Jake was a great waiter to my boyfriend and I! He was always quick with his service.
Our server Marty was excellent and the food was delish! We will be back!
The food was amazing as usual. My steak was prepared to perfection and was full of flavor.
Another terrific evening of dining at JB Hooks!! All four of us enjoyed our dinners tremendously......(one plate of Hooks Milan, two plates of seabass, and one plate of steak and lobster). Service was simply outstanding......Taylor K. did another awesome job!! This place never disappoints.
