This restaurant is away from the Town Center so if you want to get away from that business, this is a good alternative. Food is American and good- pretty typical American fare. I had the fish tacos and would not recommend those as there was barely any fish in there. About 65% of the dish was the slaw. The tacos crumbled and broke and had to eat the whole thing with a fork. My drink was well made. There is a wine tasting wine store at front and a nice/spacious outdoor deck. Free, but limited outdoor lot and it seemed a bit further garage. This is on the edge of a small outdoor eatery mall.

Many friends have sung the praises of NYAJ. I had friends visiting from out of town, so I suggested we stop there. It was a Sunday at 7PM, there were many people there, but it wasn't crowded. We were seated promptly and then we waited. And waited. And waited. And waited. Our waiter came over to take our drink order after we had been waiting more than 10 minutes. It seemed like he was busy flirting with an attractive patron instead of checking on all his assigned tables. He took our food order when he brought the drinks. We were all thirsty and finished our drinks fast. We couldn't find our waiter. When the food runner brought our food, we asked if she could get us drink refills. She said no, but she'd get our waiter. She came back a few minutes later with the rest of our food, but again told us she'd get our waiter. The food was pretty good, but the indifferent service made us want to just leave. We don't want or expect wait staff to become our new best friends, but we do expect service. We had pepperoni pizzas and hamburgers. They were a decent size and pretty tasty.Hello,While I am glad that you enjoyed your meals, I am also disappointed to hear about the lack of service you received. Please accept my sincere apology.Feedback from our guests is our most valuable tool for retraining our staff so I am hoping that you'll remember who your server was?If you can real out to me directly at [email protected] I'd love to try and make things right for you.Please include your name and mailing address when you do respond and cross-reference you name here.Thank you,Jimmie

Thinking this was home cooking however, I ordered the pot roast. Plating look pleasant but the roast was served in 3 large chunks which turned out to be mostly fat. Not enough gravy so you are left with plain mashed potatoes. Spouse ordered the fried chicken with mashed potatoes, again with gravy on the chicken but not the potatoes. Most places offer warm bread or biscuits, but here you need to request it if you want it. Over priced for home cooking! Not a fan!Hello, please contact us at [email protected] to discuss your visit.

Visited for lunch and was served by Jaih who has a wonderful personality. SO ordered the crab soup and was impressed, while I ordered the BLT that came with fries. More than enough food for a lunch item. SO ordered a bacon cheeseburger and could not eat it all. He was too full! We were fortunate to have beautiful weather to enjoy sitting outside! Overall wonderful experience! Top notch service and food.

Yes, it's a chain, and a diner. You're not going to get great food, but you get a good basic meal at a reasonable price. Check out the specials and make your order.

My wife has wanted to try this place for a long time and we finally ate dinner there. Luckily, we went during restaurant week - appetizer, entree, qand dessert was only $35. I had the shrimp tempura roll appetizer, cioppino for my main, and vanilla creme brulee for dessert. My wife had the ceviche appetizer, mussels & fries main, and chocolate mousse bomb for dessert. All were really good/excellent. The ciopino was as godd as those that I have had in San Francisco. My wife especially loved the mussels. We also had a bottle of wine - very good price on a bottle. The waiter was especially great - there when you need him and very courteous/professional. Great experience and we will return.

A nostalgic nod to mid century Americana and comfort food classics and some unexpected twists (a la sushi) in an upbeat 1940's dinner house.

Came to jacksonâs on the rec of a friend while visiting town center. The bread they serve on the table is more like dessert and just delicious. great drinks. had a bellini and my friend had the mojito. yum. My friend had the steak sandwich and fries. delicious shoestring style. I had the chicken salad not sure what they call it. Has avocado blue cheese chicken pecans greens with a champagne vinaigrette. everything was delicious. our servers were just super pleasant and helpful. seating inside was comfortable. They do have a nice outdoor seating area but it was a bit humid for us to be outside. prices were average. I would def go back and highly recommend.

First time dining at Kitbar and was quite pleased with the food and ambiance, the MEGA wrap around bar was very interesting, but my so called Chef/ server was pretty lame, really didn't have a good personality and would have been better off working at the Tire Center at Costco. The food was really good and I highly recommend their Cheesy Onion soup. Had the Fish Taco's for main dish and it was great
