    Absolutely loved this restaurant. The fried chicken and pork fried rice was amazing. The atmosphere was great. Even the valet guys were beyond awesome and so respectful. Valet parking was free because we got it validated by the restaurant. Also our waitress was very kind and patient.

    We love to go to Jacky’s Waterplace restaurant as a family. We have the option to enjoy individual meals or dine family style. The sushi selection is so vast with both raw and cooked options for all kinds of sushi lovers. I tried the garlic scallops with vermicelli for the first time and it was so visually pleasing to look at and delicious. The calamari appetizer is really top notch…It’s prepared spicy and never over cooked.

    Food is great but a little pricy. The Sushi is fantastic as was the Chinese broccoli side and vegetable pad Thai. We had a great table for 4 looking out to the river and downtown skyline. It seemed strange that last call for drinks was 9:30 on a Thursday evening. We would have stayed longer but went elsewhere to continue our evening.

    The manager, I believe his name was Val, was extrenely rude and unwelcoming. Got the evening off to a bad start. The food was OK and the ambiance is lovely. This was a special occassion for my daughter and the way we were treated when checking in really put a bad taste in our mouth before we were even seated.

    From the complimentary parking to the fried ice cream for desert; This is one of my favorite places! Today I had the salmon belly roll, and it was delicious! Love the patio overlooking downtown Providence. Service was great!

    my boyfriend and I came here for my birthday dinner and the food and service was so exceptional, truly one of the best experiences either of us have had dining out. Matthew was incredibly polite and courteous throughout our entire meal, and brought us a dessert for my birthday candle and all. Thank you! truly made my 23rd birthday one to remember

    Was a lovely dinner with great service - a special place! It was a birthday dinner and we didn't even have to ask for a special dessert - it was brought out as a surprise for the whole table. Food was delicious and staff was very kind. Loved sitting at the water. Great to have valet. We'll be back!

    Thought we scored front row seats for Waterfire… Alas by 7:45 we realized that it was not happening at Waterplace Park! Still, we enjoyed our evening. Food and drinks were good, although the presentation was only about 7 of 10. Specifically I was expecting my mai tai to have some sort of tropical garnish, but it arrived with just a sad little wedge of orange.

    The service was excellent. The food was very poor. the chickens dinner were both awful. just had a few bite and left the rest. Did not complain to server because we did not want my family to feel uncomfortable with the complaint. Went to the bar after for cocktails and was not any better. The staff show to be over work and tried. The drinks were ok. Very poor in cleanness. No Food Safety follow! No hand washing! Bartender left to go out for a smoke and return- did not wash hands!!! Handling fruit for drinks with bare fingers! The bar was very dirty looking and the mirrors in the bar area should be cleaned!!!! Terrible.........

    Excellent food and options but short on staff, at least it seemed. Not sure if waitress had too many tables or if kitchen short staffed. Last of meals came out when everyone else was almost finished. A side came out after completely done with plate.

    Waitress seemed to forget about us. She didn’t bring chopsticks with the sushi then said she’d come back with them but didn’t until we were almost done. Meal was not hot and was just ok. I’ve eaten here before and had a better experience.

    This was a our 2nd in-person dining experience during Covid. Many other dining and special occasions hosted at Jackys Waterplace but this time was really OFF!! The food came out in a VERY odd order-first 1 drink- then the veggie which we sent back-2 appetizers-2nd drink then our 3 entrees with the still slightly warm veggie. Obviously the kitchen/waitstaff communication was WAY OFF. I would NOT recommend going based on this experience but will give Jackys another chance because of our past dining.
