BBQ Chargrilled Tri Tip Plate w/Mashed Potatoes and Mediterranean Vegetables
Donovan H.

In the 15+ years that I have been eating "Jacks Urban Eats" (at a variety of locations), my experience has always been good but not great. Truth be told is what I find surprising is that there just isn't an abundance of fast-casual restaurants that carry a ton of salad options. You have popular places such as "Panera Bread" as well as major supermarkets such as "Nugget", "Whole Foods", and "Raley's" (with create-your-own salad) but not much else. At least in the greater Sacramento area. Which takes me to Roseville; specifically "The Fountains @ Roseville" where this place has been around since 2012; four years after this upscale strip-mall officially opened. This is one of two locations in Placer County with the other being on Douglas Blvd in Granite Bay. For those that have been to a Jacks Urban Eats, the ordering process is confusing as the line snakes around and eventually when you get to the register, that is when you place your order. I remember previously when you used to write on a card of what type of salad you wish to order. Well, unfortunately they did away with that as all build-your-own salads are done electronically through the register. Not a fan of this method but it is what it is. During my most recent visit (which was on Sunday 7/27/2025 at around 1:40pm), it was packed to a capacity. Since this area was getting unusually cool weather (for July), this brought a ton of foot traffic into this place. After making my way to the register, I ordered their "Tri-Tip Plate". This was tender slices of their signature tri-tip while I decided on mashed potatoes & gravy, market vegetables, and chipotle-mango BBQ dipping sauce. My +1 went with a "Steak Salad" which uses mixed greens, bleu cheese, sundried cranberries, rosemary croutons, red onions, and balsamic vinaigrette. After paying the cashier, we both get numbers and proceed to the outdoor patio area (which is quite spacious) and enough room to accommodate at least 30-40 customers. Even though it was very busy, both our meals came out in about 7 minutes. As for my tri-tip, it was seasoned and tender but not a whole lot of flavor. Dipping it in the BBQ sauce made a huge difference but still just a 6/10 for me. My mashed potatoes were delicious but not piping hot and almost borderline lukewarm. The veggies were tasty though as this overall plate was just average at-best for me. As for her salad, there just wasn't a whole lot of steak in it. Which is disappointing since this was nearly $16 (after tax). Therefore, if you're looking for a solid salad, I would try "Garden of Eat'n" (only a mile away) as well as "Saladworks" in Lincoln. Overall, "Jacks Urban Eats" is decent but not a place I would go out of my way for. The employees here work their tail off so quality control might be an issue on days when it is super busy. But the restaurant itself was clean while the food was fresh. When you factor in the prices (which are a bit on the higher side), cozy ambiance, and slightly above average food, I am going to give The Fountains @ Roseville Jacks Urban Eats just an average three-star rating.

Urban fries
Rachelle F.

Last time I ordered a lg urban fry, they gave me a small. Today I got the lg I ordered, but there's hardly anything on it. The whole reason I order this instead of reg fries is because of the sauce. Very disappointing.

Always liked Jacks, an pleased with daughter's choice to go here. There were 6 of us plus baby and squeezed around a table inside. I ordered the make your own salad which was great. Pick your own lettuce, 6 topping. We had sandwiches of different types. Everything was good accept the fries were Luke warm, even the garlic fries. This was disappointing. Service was fairly fast, atmosphere was lively, slightly over air conditioned in our corner. We came after 1:30 so not as busy as it could be. Like I said fries needed to be hot out of fryer but they were not. Otherwise we enjoyed our lunch.

MYO salad with steak. Ate it with fries :)
K J.

I've been to plenty of different Jack's Urban Eats locations and for the most part they're generally good. The jacks urban fries are always a hit although I wish they would've let us also add garlic to them but you have to get one or the other, can't combine. I usually opt to make my own salad. The steak and most of the veggies were really fresh. The broccoli had multiple pieces that needed to be removed as they had brownish/gray spots. They no longer have the Gorgonzola dressing so I tried the Green Goddess and it was a good flavor, light and fresh. The Mac n cheese was very bland I remember it having more flavor in my past visits. Overall good for a quick bite.

My first time here and the plating for these meals are so full and taste delicious! We had to order the food at the front before we could find seating. Definitely gave a modernize dinner setting!

Chimichurri Steak
Alison M.

TLDR: receipt in my food?? Food is always yummy at Jacks, the staff at this location were very nice, establishment was clean. It would've been 5 stars but during this visit the food ticket was tucked under my salad? majority was just to the side of the plate, but a chunk of the receipt was laid beneath some leaves of the salad. Wasn't that big of a deal, I've just never had this happen and this didn't occur to any of the other plates of food. So maybe they forgot to take it out for my salad? I dunno

BBQ chicken sandwich
Rachel M.

I ordered a BBQ chicken sandwich that comes with chicken, BBQ, crispy fried onions etc. what I received was BREAD. And dry chicken. I even called jacks to tell the girl on the phone extra onions and bbq sauce. Mind you I door dashed my order and can't get it replaced.

Spicy Buffalo Salad
Jennifer G.

Everytime I meet up with my mom for lunch we always come to Jacks. My go is the buffalo chicken salad. We also enjoy a large jacks urban eats fries and share. There is plenty of seating inside and outdoor seating as well. Service is quick, they hand you a number sign and deliver it to you. ambiance is chill vibes. Clean bathrooms available as well.

Came here for a quick bite, before an appointment. I chose this place because no one was in line; perfect! As people start coming in after me, I'm watching my time and reluctantly asked about my order. Not only was I told i had not been waiting long, I was also presented with the girl slamming my order down In front of me!! " hereeeee you goooo!" Super rude! Foods good, the blonde rude girl not so much.

Salmon Cobb salad.
Brooklynn F.

We love jacks, but the ever shrinking salmon is a real disappointment. Staff is great, location is nice, service is quick. But the price for what you're getting is starting to feel pretty silly. They also charge $7.50 for this portion of salmon to be added to salads.

The croutons were crisp and flavorful. Best Ceasar salad that I've had in years. My main dish was the pork carnitas tacos. Topped with heaping mounds of shredded cabbage. Creamy sauce on the cabbage. A side of mild-ish chipotle salsa served on the side to pour on the carnitas. The tacos were so big that they were almost too unwieldly to hold. But I persevered and gobbled them like there is no tomorrow. Satisfying. A big hungry guy will be perfectly happy after polishing off the plate. Wine selection is small but has the usual good suspects in the reasonable price range. Mostly California wines. I live 2 miles from this place. Tonight was my first visit. Oh yeah I'll be a frequent return customer. Highly recommended.

I haven't tried this particular salad at Bennett's before and I was pleased. It's a very large portion, you easily could take some home. It was flavorful packed full of fresh greens, shredded grilled chicken, small chunks of avacado, corn and a mix of other delicious ingredients, and tossed in a light dressing. It came slightly warmed which was very enjoyable. I washed it down with an Arnold Palmer. Very refreshing. Sitting out on the patio was very pleasant as it wasn't too hot outside, and the space is air conditioned in any case. Bennett's service is always friendly and very accommodating and this particular time maintained that special quality. There were plenty of open tables and we sat chatting for way too long after finishing our meal, yet it wasn't an issue. Thanks Bennett's. Always a nice experience.

We want to make sure that management knows that Jade, our server, was 'spot on' when it came to our foods; Micha and Candy drifted by often to make sure that all was in order, and Tom (our favorite) made his appearance to 'meet and greet' and add his cordial touch to a wonderful evening - making us feel comfortable. Thank you all for making their anniversary dinner so special; even the desserts were delightful.

Q1227 easily became one of my favorite dining experiences in Sacramento…read more We started with the lobster bites and broccolini. The lobster bites came with a lemon wedge and their house Thousand Island sauce, and that sauce was incredible. The combination of the crispy lobster, lemon, and sauce worked perfectly together. The broccolini was also seasoned really well and paired nicely with the grilled lemon. I ordered an Old Fashioned, and it was one of the smoothest I've had. One detail I loved was that they stamped the restaurant's logo into the ice cube. Small touch, but really cool. For my main course, I ordered the Grilled Huli Huli Chicken with a crispy rice cake, pineapple, greens, and a house sauce that completely made the dish. The sweet and tangy flavor paired perfectly with the chicken. Me and my girlfriend also shared the mac and cheese, and honestly, this was one of the best mac and cheeses I've had. It was rich, creamy, well-seasoned, and the breadcrumbs on top added the perfect texture. My girlfriend ordered the braised short rib with garlic mashed potatoes and carrot purée. The short rib was so tender it practically fell apart with a fork. Everything on the plate was delicious. One thing that surprised me was the portion sizes. Everything was very filling, and we ended up taking some food home. By the time dessert came around, we were already pretty full, but there was no way we were skipping it. To finish the night, we shared the Ghirardelli triple chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream, caramel sauce, and strawberries. It was the perfect way to end the meal. The restaurant was busy and lively, but it never felt crowded. The tables were spaced out really well, so my girlfriend and I could still enjoy our conversation and watch the basketball game. I also appreciated seeing Chef Q and his wife walking around and checking on guests throughout the night. They stopped by tables to see how everyone was enjoying their food, which was a really nice touch. I even had the chance to take a picture with Chef Q before we left, which was super cool. Between the food, service, atmosphere, and attention to detail, this is easily one of the top restaurants I've been to in Sacramento. Definitely worth a visit.

I have never seen such poor service in my life…read more Two weeks prior to tonight, my dad made a reservation for parents' 58th wedding anniversary. He paid $102(!!!) to reserve the table. Flash forward to this afternoon, they called my dad's cell phone to confirm the reservation. They never mentioned anything about the restaurant being closed for a private party or anything. My elderly parents show up for their reservation, only to be turned away by the host due to a private party! When my dad explained they had a reservation and paid for their table, the manager came over to speak to them. The manager said he would refund their reservation charge, but did NOTHING to make it right. They called and confirmed just hours before, turned them away at the door, and didn't even offer to get them a table for the next day or anything. For elderly parents with mobility issues, it's hard enough to get out of the house on a normal day, but to be turned away at the door due to mismanagement of their establishment is just embarrassing. Won't be coming back. Ever.
