My wife and I went to this restaurant for our wedding anniversary, as we hadn't eaten out in a couple of years due to Covid. First thing I noticed, after being escorted to the table was the filthy carpet under the table, which didn't give me a very good feeling towards their cleanliness standards. Next, I noticed the tables didn't even have a paper placemat - just bare rough wood table.
The waitress who served us was quite friendly and helpful. My wife ordered ribs, while I asked if they might have a hot turkey sandwich, as the only thing on the menu was a hot Turkey dinner for $19. After checking with the cook, she told me it was a lunchtime item, but the cook could do it for me. No mention of extra expense.
Although my wife's ribs were very good with a nice pureed vegetable of the day, I found the hot turkey sandwich, which also included this vegetable of the day, was very salty (probably the gravy).
The final irritant to this meal was that I noticed on the bill that Jack's had charged me an extra $2 for the 2 slices of bread, called "toast", to make it seem like it was more than just 2 slices of bread. Final cost for the hot turkey sandwich was $22. which was $2 more than the hot turkey dinner.
Last time for Jack's!

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize that your experience was not up to the standards we strive to achieve at Jack’s. We are happy to see that your server accommodated the special meal request to help make your experience more pleasurable. There would be an additional charge to modify menu items however your server should have advised you in advance of the 2.00 additional fee when making the substitutions. If there was an issue with the quality of the food or the fees involved, we would have certainly rectified the issues immediately, had we been made aware of your concerns at the time. We hope you return again and we will use your feedback to continue to strive to be better

Service was fast, food was hot (as well as the plates!) and well prepared. My hubby is really particular about his steak, and he said it was actually better than those he's had in high-end steak houses. We had a leisurely dinner, never felt rushed or 'processed' by our server who was knowledgeable, responsive and so friendly. Cozy, inviting and clean atmosphere. It ticked all the boxes for us: we'll definitely go again.

Had the eggs Benedict here this morning. Perfect. Homemade ham, eggs cooked to perfection. English muffin nicely toasted and the hollandaise so good you almost want a glass of it. Absolutely amazing breakfast. Should have taken a picture before I started lol.

Eight of us dined at Jack's last night. Five of us chose the 3 course special and the other three ordered from the regular menu. All of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals as the food was absolutely delicious! I had the ribs and I sent my compliments to the chef. The others savored the salmon, steak, cod tongues, and marinated pork. The prices are very reasonable and the cost of the 3 course special is outstanding! The table was beautifully set and the decor and atmosphere couldn't be better. Our server, Kyle, was superb! Kyle is a charming young man and his service was impeccable! He will go far in serving the public in any capacity. We all thank you for our wonderful experience at Jack's!

We thought this would be a great place for a night out with friends. The Saturday night special was a baked piece of codfish with Mount Sio savory topping with a choice of a side for $25.00. I ordered a 2 piece of fish(deep fried) with the same extras for $19.00! We had several appetizers Wich were mediocre. We will rethink our next time going there!

The breakfast was exceptional. Great coffee, great bacon and eggs and toast with lots of choice of jams. Service was quick and friendly.
We liked it so much we invited friends to dine with us for dinner and we all agreed that this place is a keeper. Will certainly return next time and will recommend to friends and family. Thank you for making our vacation so nice.

Jack's is in a hotel located just down from another hotel where we were staying. The staff were really friendly and the food was really tasty. The cod dinner was great -- as was the red velvet cake for dessert! Just what we needed after our arrival in Newfoundland. It's located in somewhat of a commercial area but it was very handy for us.

We are very sorry that you were not completely satisfied during your recent visit. We do offer a number of vegetarian dishes and can make substitutions when requested for most dishes. Very sorry this wasn't properly communicated to you during your visit.

Ate at Jack's for the first time with some friends. Everyone enjoyed the food -- salmon, cod, and moose were all cooked perfectly and served attractively. Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive. Food and wine were reasonably priced.

I normally avoid restaurants at hotels as I seldom enjoy a good meal and it is usually expensive. I have to say I enjoyed my meal at Jack's and the prices were reasonable. Went with my extended family so our food selections were varied. Two of us had the fish chowder and really enjoyed it. Very tasty. I then had the Pad Thai. Waitress warned me it was spicy and it was but good. Would have preferred rice noodles with it. Three had pan fried cod and enjoyed it. One had fish tacos that he liked. Another had shrimp and salmon that was good although he found it smaller than he expected. One grandson had the club sandwich that was large and he enjoyed. The other had fish and chips that he declared good apart from the last bit where the batter was not fully cooked. Service throughout was attentive and friendly. It was the birthday of two of us and they generously gave us a desert on the house
One of the few hotel restaurants I would go back to.

There are a lot of excellent choices here for a reasonable price. The peanut jam burger is amazing! Have been here often and not had a poor choice yet.
Service can be slow, however.

So happy to hear you love our food! We appreciate the kind words. Our burgers do take approximately 20 to cook as they are prepared fresh however your server should have advised you of the wait time for this item. I do hope the wait was worth it :)
