Pretty impressed by this place! It's a very unassuming location outside, but once you go inside,…read morethe vibes are immaculate. I love all the air plants they have and the dark interior really does make it more of a "classy dive" as their name suggests. We came here for a Sunday lunch and to catch the Brewers game. They had a three dollar special on domestics when we went, which was cool. Our server was nice and our orders came out promptly. The food was absolutely delicious. I was blown away by it actually. When I go to dive bars, I don't have the highest expectations for the food because usually the food is mediocre. However, at this bar, it really blew me away. I had the ODB smashburger with regular fries. The burger was juicy and flavorful with such a fluffy, soft bun. I love that they put crispy onion straws in it for a little crunch. The fries are steak fries. They had some beer batter type of coating that made them so crispy and yummy. I'm glad I stumbled upon this place. I look forward to coming back to catch another game and eat their delicious food!

I really enjoy Jackson's and like to stop by every now and then for some drinks and wings. The food…read moreis consistently solid--especially the honey sriracha wings, which are my favorite! I've also tried a few other menu items, and you really can't go wrong. The menu is similar to the other Jackson's locations in the area, which makes it easy to know what to expect. Service tends to be a bit slow, but it's usually understandable since we sit in the bar area, and the bartender is often responsible for both the bar and the nearby tables. They do their best, and we're typically in no rush. That said, one of our more recent visits was a little disappointing. We stopped in around 3 p.m. on a Sunday, and the atmosphere was unusually chaotic. The music was very loud--so loud that it was hard to hear the bartender and even carry on a conversation with my husband. There was also a group of rowdy patrons being obnoxious, whistling, and vaping indoors. I get that it's a bar, and a lively crowd is part of the vibe, but vaping inside should've been addressed. A simple reminder from staff to take it outside would have helped. Overall, I still like Jackson's for a casual hangout with great wings, but I'd appreciate a little more attention to the atmosphere when it starts to get out of hand.

Thankfully things got better from there, with the two servers both assisting and providing suggestions for food. Speaking of the food, it was quite good! I went with the mushroom swiss burger and a side of tots, and both were delicious. Initially I was a bit disappointed by the lack of tots, but given the size of the burger and my desire to shed some post-holiday weight, the portions were perfect! The burger was cooked just as I wanted, and the tots had the perfect amount of crisp and crunch.

We generally like to mix it up and go new places but find ourselves coming back here again and again.

Staff here has been here a long time and are very friendly and efficient. My go to meal here is the fish sandwich. Easily the best in the city. It's offered every day on the menu. The fried chicken and wings here are also top notch. All the sauces are homemade and they change frequently. There isn't anything on the menu that i've tried that I haven't enjoyed. Potato pancakes , which are also offered every day , are some of the best in the city. Friday's feature a splendid fish fry. And on sundays , the ham sandwich deal is excellent. Great place to grab dinner or lunch or a cold brew. Tons of different menu options for people to enjoy. I highly recommend this restaurant.

When we walked in, we were not greeted so we grabbed a table. Many minutes later, someone came over and asked if we were there to eat or drink or both.

The OG burger is a double smashed patty cheeseburger with American cheese, sauteed onions, OG sauce, and their difference maker - fried julienne cut jalapeños! Chicago style house and Freestyle music caught my attention and was a pleasant surprise, adding to a chill atmosphere. The kick from the jalapeños is subtle, but the great flavor they add is less subtle. Their fries are also solid, which matters to me when I want a burger. On Wednesday and Thursday, they serve smoked BBQ dishes until sold out. I tried their rib tips and was impressed by the flavor of the rub and how tender the tips were. The BBQ is served with housemade applesauce, pickles, slaw, and another difference maker - pan-seared sweet potatoes! They're open 7 days a week, so go check them out.

I really like the neighborhood bar doing 7am breakfast on weekends experience because my neighborhood doesn't have anything like this. The foreign bartender with the the music to my ears accent did a wonderful job taking care of me. The spicy Bloody Mary is always a treat with breakfast here. This time I ordered the lakeside egg burger rare with hash browns mixed with onions. The burger came with a over easy cooked egg so some yoke spills out. The burger was cooked perfectly rare and the bun was fresh and soft, the burger meat and the buns are sourced locally. Today's breakfast was definitely better than my last and it's probably going to be an occasional breakfast stop.
