    The hangover breakfast
    Kaman L.

    I had brunch with my friend's family here. The brunch menu selections are great. I ordered a Hangover breakfast which is really pretty good. The frequency that our server checked on us is perfect. Ambiance is nice to hang out with friends. If you want a decent breakfast at a nice restaurant, give this place a try.

    Yummy! Couldn't make up our minds, so just do it!  Dessert First!

    Always a great meal and service! My go to place...crazy how the staff remembers my hot water and water with no ice...

    What comes to mind when you hear the name JACKS? Most people probably think of JACK N JILL. However, I'd like to share a nice dining experience I had in the Newark Mall area, complete with excellent staff, attentive servers, and delicious food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Recently, I visited this location with some friends, and I was thoroughly impressed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by. I had a wonderful breakfast brunch there today, and it was truly enjoyable. So, the next time you're in the Newark/Fremont area, make sure to visit JACKS--you won't be disappointed!

    Grilled Salmon

    I came to Jacks with my wife family, the last night we were staying in Fremont. This place is near my wife aunt place and she wanted to come here before we leave to go home. We came close to closing time so the parking was easily to find and we got seated quickly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was not busy at all, with some guest inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got the New York steak 10oz at medium rare and asked just for fries as my sides. My wife got the grilled salmon for her dish and her mom and aunt got the California burger. It took some time for our food to come outm My wife like her salmon and also her aunt with the burger since that's what she always get. My New York steak color didn't look appealing to me but they cooked it to medium rare like I requested. The steak was okay, I was more hungry than anything else. I finished it quick and was still hungry so I ordered some Hot Wings since it was happy hour price. I like the Hot wings more than my steak and I asked for no blue cheese. The issue I had while dining here was it took three attempts and 3 different people at the restaurant to finally get a refill on my soda. Our waitress disappeared, the waiter who brought our food never came back and it wasn't until the manager came to ask us how we were doing to finally give all of us a refill on our drinks.

    Smash burger 04/2026

    Tried their new smash burger and Mac n cheese Smash burger was good but not really a smash burger im used to. Patties more on the thicker side but still flavorful and a thick filling burger. Mac and cheese was good too. I'm not much of a Mac and cheese person but this was good. Hints of sun-dried tomatoes and the chili flakes in their had a nice kick to balance out the richness overall good comfort style foods here

    On July 25, 2026, Me and my lady I dined at Jack's Restaurant, and unfortunately our experience with our server, who I believe was named Mariah, was disappointing. From the beginning of our meal, we noticed that we were not provided water like the other tables around us. Throughout our visit, the server's tone toward us felt dismissive and unfriendly. Whenever she spoke to us, she seemed to have an attitude, while we observed her interacting with other customers in a much friendlier and more respectful manner. At the end of our meal, when we were ready to pay, we waited approximately 15 minutes before she returned to process our payment. But by then I had to ask someone else to pay We understand that restaurants can get busy, but we expect to be treated with the same level of courtesy and service as every other guest. We hope this feedback is taken seriously so future customers receive consistent and respectful service.

    We came into town for a family reunion and decided to try out this place for dinner. They have nice people working here. He got here a little before happy hour ended so they got our drinks and appetizers in before it ended. That was so nice. There was a lot to choose from the menu but I went with some Greek appetizers and my mom and uncle got the pasta dish. My aunt got the grilled salmon salad and she said it was really good. All of the food was absolutely delicious. We shared the appetizers and had a great time. All of the staff are very attentive, we didn't feel neglected at all. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is casual dining, the restaurant is very clean and attractive.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I'm surprised I haven't reviewed them yet. Their service has been pretty friendly each time we've gone. Our sick kid wanted comfort food and when he thought of mac & cheese, he immediately thought of Jack's. He really likes their bacon mac & cheese. Plenty of parking because the mall is basically empty aside from the few restaurants and 24 hr. fitness. Pretty clean environment and restrooms. Decent number of tvs to watch at the bar. Covered outdoor area is nice too. Kitchen has open windows so you can watch them cook.

    I finally went back to Jack's after several years (pre-covid time) and was inspired to give the lunch menu a try after ordering breakfast take out at the Saratoga location a month ago. This location is fairly large and the vibe is great! Excellent ambiance with lots of Christmas trees all around. The bar area is very inviting as well. We were seated promptly on a Sunday afternoon and greeted genuinely by Fee (spelling?) and also served by Amani. Fee was all smiles and we loved her positive attitude. She recommend the calamari and I knew we'd have to order that. Huge portion! Eats: *Calamari *Catfish Po' Boy + mixed green salad & ranch *Tuna Melt + fries *Patty Melt + fries I was debating between the first two and chose the po' boy-- best decision ever! Huge filet of panko crusted catfish, chilled cole slaw, and ciabatta bun toasted to perfection. Salad was a refreshing addition after the indulgent crispy calamari! They serve breakfast until 2pm and I've had the bananas foster French toast from Saratoga. It's amazing! Gonna get that next time when dining in. Happy Hour looks good too! Monday to Friday, 3pm-6pm, 8pm-close at the bar area. Parking has never been an issue. Lots of people enjoy Jack's and now I'm one of them!

    14 ounce New York steak, potatoes with garlic feta
    Hillary H.

    From the moment we arrived, the service was excellent. The hostess stand was so kind and patient with our 80-year-old mom, allowing her time to decide what temperature and seating area would be most comfortable for her, inside or outside. That level of care really stood out. Our server, Alysa M, was fantastic. She immediately offered thoughtful suggestions for both drinks and meals, was knowledgeable about the menu, friendly, attentive, and incredibly efficient throughout the entire experience. The food was absolutely delicious. My brother and I both ordered the steak, and our mom had the Sautéed Petrale Sole. She is usually a very light eater, but she completely devoured her meal, which says everything! We left very impressed with both the food and the hospitality. We will definitely be back.

    Located on the outside of the mall with plenty of parking . Went on a Friday night with no wait time . Had heated outside area but choose to sit inside due to it was way to loud outside . Our server Chris was very attentive and very friendly . Everyone kept checking on the guest and all seemed very professional and alert . Portions were large and pricing is average for today's food. Food was delicious and filling. Had the Moscow mule which was very refreshing unfortunately didn't have any flavors but no problems. 100% recommend and will go again. Bonus is movie theater next door so makes it perfect location for a dinner and movie night.

    LAMB BURGER
    Aaron C.

    Food: Lamb burger (with french fries) Was the flavor of a gyro but in burger form. Would order this again. Service: Had some bigger tables (or areas to push together) as we had a big-ish party which also included babies. The wait staff had good "handles" in lifting plates and stuff, going between kids, nicely done.

    Sausage breakfast
    Ty S.

    My first experience here was excellent! We ordered the sausage breakfast, tuna melt w/ garlic fried , meatloaf sandwich w/onion rings , beef barley soup and cheesecake. everything was good but my favorite was the barely soup and the tuna melt . Tuna melt bread had a soft butter crispy crust and the flavor of the tuna was perfect . I enjoyed the onion rings especially with the dipping sauce . For starters we had the Beef and barely soup and that's when I knew I was going to like this place . I could have just ate the soup and would have been satisfied.. the soup was very tasty . My only complaint would be that the meatloaf sandwich could have used some cheese and a little mayo but other than that it was good . So I thought I was finished eating but my server Alysa somehow convinced us to order dessert lol . I had a really good experience, I have no complaints other than I had to unbutton my pants when I got in the car . I would like to shout out my server for being very attentive and making food suggestions considering it being our first time here .. I definitely will be back , especially for happy hour .

    I have eaten there for lunch and dinner. Is this place open for breakfast?

    Yes it is. Breakfast is served from 8a-2p

    Is there a cost incurred for the private room, or are you automatically placed there when reserving for large parties (10-15 people)?

    Private rooms typically require a minimum spend. A party of 10-15 won’t necessarily be seated in a private room. To inquire about events / private rooms, please visit: https://www.ilovejacks.com/private-events

    Do you still accept the 20% off discount store voucher given to me by one of your staff sometime ago? Thanks.

    There should be an expiration date on the coupon — if it hasn’t expired, we are happy to accept.

    Do you have a private room for 20 people?

    We sure do! Please visit ilovejacks.com/private-events — we’d love to help you plan your event!

    How is parking?

    Easy parking. Large parking lot.

    May I bring my dog during outdoor dining?

    Yes

    What is the corkage fee?

    $15 / 750ml

    What time do they serve breakfast until?

    2pm. Every day.

    Are you now open for outdoor or indoor dining?

    Outdoor dining.

    Do they have indoor or outside seating right now?

    Not right now due to Covid. However, when it is safe, they do have outdoor seating that is convenient for dining during pandemic restrictions.

    Do they do cash as payment?

    Yes, they do. We paid with cash.

    Great to see this place has wifi. I need a quiet place with wifi to work remotely. Does this place play loud music in the outdoor seating area? many restaurants even with outdoor dining have very loud music which makes it hard to work/take calls.

    They play loud music inside and outside. Not able to work/take calls.

    Are you reopen for indoor dining yet?

    Yes! Indoor and outdoor dining, available.

    Are they open for take-out during the pandemic?

    Yes they are.

    Are they open on New Year's Day?

    They should be the worst case scenario you could call and see if they have special hours I know they're open today.

    I looked online and could not find any information regarding gluten free options. Are there any gluten free options? Thank you!

    @ fey S. - It may not say so on their Yelp presence, but according to all their food menus on https://ilovejacks.com: "While we offer gluten-free menu items, we are not a… 

    Do you hold party reservation for 60 people?

    Hi Ann - we certainly do! Please email - events@ilovejacks.com and our events coordinator will follow up with you.… 

    Do they have heat lamps on the outdoor patio?

    yes they do.

    Would this be a good place to go for a post wedding brunch with a large group on a Sunday? Can I make a reservation to accommodate 35/40 people?

    The best place. But! Make a reservation they’re popular and busy.

    Is there somewhere to find calories/nutrition info...?

    If you need to ask this question, don't go, if you do. ask the waitress . Short answer is No.

I was here for an art show last night, but honestly? The food ended up being the masterpiece. We essentially tried to defeat the menu and the menu won. 10/10, no notes. The Highlights: Hawaiian Sliders: Absolutely bomb. The perfect balance of sweet and savory. I'm still thinking about them 24 hours later. Crispy Quesatacos with Chicken Tinga: Perfectly seasoned, juicy, and packed with flavor. It's hard to find chicken Tinga in a crispy Quesataco this authentic in a pop-up setting, but they nailed it flavor bomb Pupusas & Tacos: My friend and I went in on these and they did not disappoint. The pupusa was thick, cheesy, and had that perfect crisp on the outside. The Verdict: There wasn't a single miss on the menu. I even grabbed an extra haul to take home to my husband--usually, "to-go" food loses its soul on the car ride home, but he was obsessed.

I've probably ordered that exact combination over a thousand times, and Country Way in Fremont makes it better than anyone.

The country fried potatoes were outstanding--crispy and golden on the outside, yet soft and almost creamy on the inside. They're the kind of breakfast potatoes that are so good you end up finishing every last bite. The staff is warm and friendly, making the place feel like a neighborhood institution rather than just another breakfast spot. One thing I also love is the building itself. Country Way is housed in a wonderfully preserved vintage A-frame that feels like a trip back to a different era. Instead of chasing trendy, it embraces its history, and that charm is part of the experience. If you judge a breakfast restaurant by how well it executes the classics, Country Way absolutely nails it. Sometimes simple food, done exceptionally well, is the hardest thing to find

I came here with my family expecting a better Outback Steakhouse but it ended up even better than I expected They pick up the rolls for your table as they're walking you to the table with their famous honey butter. So you have food to eat the second you're sat. They also have free peanuts on the table Because it was our first time we went a little crazy with the appetizers. We got potato skins, rattlesnake bites, a cactus blossom and firecracker shrimp. The skins were cheesy, loaded with bacon and the perfect ratio of potato to topping. The rattlesnake bites are these mini fried cheddar jalapeño poppers. The spice is subtle but the jalapeño flavor really comes through. The cactus blossom I did wish had a bit more seasoning. I'm used to the Blooming Onion where the entire breading is thoroughly seasoned. It was well salted at least, I was just looking for more flavor. The horseradish dipping sauce helped a lot with that though. Finally the firecracker shrimp is a solid "bang bang" shrimp app. The shrimp were crispy and juicy on the inside. The sauce reads more creamy than spicy but still a nice compliment especially with the potato sticks under the shrimp soaking up that sauce For my entree I ordered the ribeye and grilled shrimp combo and I opted for the grilled mushroom & onion add on. It came with two sides so I got mashed potatoes with gravy and a Caesar salad. Let me tell you that first bite of steak completely melted in my mouth and I was shook. I'd never seen a casual chain restaurant nail a steak like that. I will say the fatty parts got chewier as the dish cooked down. But overall the steak was tender and generously seasoned. The mushrooms and onions were well seasoned too and the combo with the mashed potatoes was delicious. The grilled shrimp were decently cooked but the lemon butter sauce really carries it. They're served on top of garlic toasts that soak up the sauce but keep their toasty edges. The Caesar was your average Caesar, nothing more, nothing less. We were way too full to order dessert and each had a full plate of leftovers to bring home. Overall we were really happy with our experience here. And the bill ended up being cheaper than we were expecting for everything we ordered. We had a one year old with us and the staff was kind and accommodating the entire time. While Texas Roadhouse is a bit of a drive for us it was definitely worth the trip!

I paired my meal with a glass of Kendall Jackson, Chardonnay. For dessert we had the Seasonal Crème Brûlée which had a lovely presentation and the taste didn't disappoint. Our experience here was TOP and we most definitely will return to try more amazing offerings!!! The menu is extensive and there's something for everyone...even the cocktail menu is amazing!!!

    My ultimate birthday go-to for fresh seafood and steak!…read more Market Broiler Fremont has been my absolute go-to spot for birthday celebrations for years. When you want a consistently great meal to celebrate a special occasion, this place always delivers a solid 4-star experience. Here is why it keeps winning out over other chain options: The Apps to Start: You have to start with the appetizers here. They bring out that warm, fresh sourdough bread to the table which is dangerous because it's so good. Pairing that with their classic seafood apps like the crisp calamari or a shrimp cocktail sets the perfect tone for a birthday dinner. Fresh Fish & Steaks: For the main course, their menu hits the perfect balance. The fresh fish is always cooked beautifully, flaky, and high-quality. If you're looking for land instead of sea, their steaks are consistently juicy, tender, and seasoned just right. The Vibe: Sitting in the Pacific Commons location makes for a great, lively atmosphere that feels celebratory without being overly stuffy. It's a reliable local favorite that never fails for a birthday dinner. Great food, solid portions, and always a great time!

    We came here for breakfast as we were passing through Fremont and I love the Niles area…read more The drinks we were got were good but a little too sweet for me. My boyfriend got the fried chicken steak plate and it was good and a really big portion. I got the spicy chicken melt and it was really good and tasty plus really big portion. We also shared the beignets that come in different flavors and they were fluffy and really good. Altogether a solid breakfast spot.

    It doesn't hurt to smile!…read more Firstly, I'm happy to say that the food and portions are amazing over here. If you want to eat at a place that has good quality and a big enough portion to either share or take home for leftovers then this is the place to go. There were some notable things that we stumbled across in our dining experience. I had noticed that one of the utensils wasn't washed properly so there was a dried up piece of vegetable or something stuck on it. Also I requested my burger to be cooked medium but when I received my order, it was more so well done with no pink in the middle. One of the two pork chop was cooked great, while the other was a little dry and chewy. Regardless, these were things that didn't warrant calling over a server. The thing that mainly put a stain for our restaurant outing at Skillet'z was the service. Upon walking in we were not greeted with a friendly welcoming and when seated they quickly walked away. The lady who took our order did not even look like she wanted to be there, granted I understand that nobody really enjoys having to go to work but if you need to interact with customers, maybe this isn't the occupation for you. While we were eating there was not a single time that anyone came up to us to ask us how we were doing, if we needed anything, or how the food was. There was a moment where it was someone's birthday at another table and I don't think I've ever heard a more unenthusiastic and monotone announcement for a birthday and a lame excuse for a birthday song. They're not going to bother with dropping off a check/bill for the meal so you need to go up to the counter to pay for the food. Once you step up to the counter keep in mind that more than likely you will encounter a rude interaction and a feeling that you were inconveniencing them. Overall I'll more than likely eat from here again, primarily for the food. But maybe next time we'll consider just taking out to go.
