Reviews for Jack's Restaurant and Bar Pleasant Hill in Newark, CA

Ordered for delivery. Onion rings were tasty. The veggies for burgers were placed on the side in the box. Very generous portion... for fries. We were surprised at the thickness of the California burger, husband had a late breakfast cos he was still full! MyImpossible was delicious, it's the DIY assembly that made it even more fulfilling.

Meatloaf is surprisingly good for both of us though we were full from earlier dinner. Calamari could have bit more seasoning ... Nice place. Will go again. Read more

Awesome place for lunch. Our server was phenomenal. I asked for mayonnaise and she put it on a plate with a napkin on... it. Small attention to detail and service really made our experience a phenomenal one The calamari was so light and airy, notoily Will come back again Read more

Offering a slightly more upscale dining experience than say lazy dog or BJs in the same vicinity, Jacks offers American fare and... moderately to moderately high prices. With its modern interior and softer background music, Jacks exudes more of a hotelrestaurant vibe in my opinion. We went there for a late lunch. With the lunch peak over, the staff was relaxed andaccommodating. The food was pretty good but as always some items were a hit and some were a miss. The fish and chips were asolid hit. The Po Boy and Gyro were slight misses but that can be chalked up to subjectivity. Whoever mans the deep fryer doesa good job. deep fried items were not greasy and crispy. garlic fries and onion rings were crispy and the portions weregenerous. Our server Anthony was quite friendly accommodating and attentive. He definitely earns the service charge. Jacks hasa nice full service bar with a good selection. With indoor and outside seating available, there is ample space to hang out andpeople watch assuming there are people to watch. The view is of the parking lot, it is too bad they didn't locate the restauranton the upper floor. Jack's is a good 1st date or business dinner restaurant. With its upscale vibe and fairly decent food, onecan enjoy a pleasant meal and see where rest of the evening goes. Read more

First time visiting since the pandemic. The place is still modern and clean but the breakfast food quality has slipped. In all... honesty management saw we weren't thrilled with the hash browns, very bland and undercooked. They offered another entree or tocomp the dish which we accepted. This was all without us prompting or complaining, very observant management and wait staff. Will be back. Read more

My second time at Jacks and a first in their indoor dining area. The service was fast even for a lunch hour and the servers... attentive. I tried a newish item on the menu, an omelet with chili verde. It was fine, and so was the french toast my friendordered. The acoustics indoor can make for a loud atmosphere. I wish there was more to say. Read more

Oh, I loved this place. Went for a breakfast and the burrito is marvelous, such as the banana caramel french bread (not sure of... the name but that’s what it is). Then for lunch and tried the salmon salad, my family got a sandwich, sirloin I think, and thehot dog and spaghetti from the kids menu. I loved the fact that they give a drawing and crayons for the kids. Besides, there isthis great bar with drinks like mimosas and margaritas so, this together with a great friendly personnel, makes it one of myfavorites. Read more
