    Walking on the west side of the park in the way to see the Jackie O reservoir, Yelpers led the way to Jacob's Pickles. What a great spot with outdoor seating and a varied menu to suit all preferences. It's clearly a place for locals to hangout for an adult beverage and or meal. Our waiter warned us that the portions are generous and it was no lie! When I sat down, I eyed the wedge salad at the next table and decided that was for me. Now, what I didn't know was that it came with two large pieces of fried chicken that were moist and tender. Marinating in buttermilk will do that so I appreciate that extra touch. Half of the order came back with me for dinner the next day. Hubby got the big bowl of mussels and fries and enjoyed the order. He commented that they kitchen took the time to clean the mussels which speaks to attention to detail. He also commented on how big and tender they were. Our friends enjoyed their meals too. I highly recommend Jacob's and look forward to coming back. It's locals which is refreshing.

    Was staying in the neighborhood. Great for brunch! Service was excellent, food great, portions HUGE. Bloody Mary was fantastic.

    Shrimp & Endive Salad

    This southern eatery in the Upper West Side of Manhattan in NYC offers fried chicken and biscuits, waffles, house made pickles and salads. We ordered for pickup to have a picnic in Central Park. I had the Shrimp and Endive Salad $28 with goat cheese, candied pecans, blackberries, pickled pepper and a honey chili drizzle. I also had one Buttermilk Biscuit $5. The salad was very unique. Everything was delicious.

    Birthday treat- biscuit with ice cream

    My family and I came here for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. We made reservations about one week in advance, and while there were tables available, we had limited times to pick from. We shared a platter of pickles. I had the veggie cheese omelette, which contained mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes, and cheddar. It's usually served with home fries, but I swapped them for fresh fruit. The food was delicious and the portions were generous. It was someone's birthday in our party, and at the end of the meal, they brought out a biscuit with ice cream for the table. Great service!

    Blueberry and lemon Pancakes
    Julia A.

    While I've heard so many positive reviews about Jacob's Pickles, I was left a little disappointed. I ordered off their seasonal menu and got the blueberry and lemon pancakes. We all agreed that K "won" since everyone else's meal was subpar. The biscuits and gravy were soggy and cold. The other meal had tough chicken and undercooked potatoes. Our server was so sweet but didn't check on us often despite the restaraunt being fairly empty. I did hear they recently relocated- and this new location is much more spacious compared to the last!

    There comes a time in one's life when you violently crave pickles. So what do you do? You bring your ass here and eat a delightful amount of damn good pickles. Be warned entrees are large and addicting. Fried chicken was bomb and reminded me briefly of fried chicken from the south. Interior was pretty. Service was phenomenal. Drinks hit. What more could a girl ask for?

    So I made a return to the newest location and found my experience to be ok, compared to my last. I just don't know about this one. It was some hits and misses with the food. The service could have been better and our table placement also should have been better, being that we did make reservations. The options on the menu, weren't that interesting to me, it took me quite a bit of time to order. Anyway something about this visit just was off and I didn't leave fulfilled, like my last visit. Maybe because the food I had just didn't blow me away like the last visit. The best thing we had were the ribs and the pickles. The chicken and biscuits, my guests and I were not crazy about and the devil eggs were bland. I don't know if I would return. So I would still do a thumb up, and a Happy Yelping too!

    I come back to Jacob's Pickles again an again and there are many reasons why. The first: the staff has been incredible every time: so kind, attentive, and welcoming, despite the fact that it's a pretty big restaurant and has been decently busy every time I'm there. Secondly, it's beautiful. I love the classy, modern, warm aesthetic of both the inside and outside dining spaces. Third, the FOOD (duh). The portions here are huge so you're almost always getting two meals in one. This time, we ordered some fried pickles (a classic-$15) with some sriracha mayo (yumm). It's the perfect crunchy, salty bite. Then, I got the original chicken sandwich ($22) which just falls apart in the best way. The chicken was juicy and tender and I left in a food coma.

    Took my mother here sometime last month as a Mother's Day celebration. Really enjoyed ourselves. The mushroom gravy, chicken and biscuits dish I had was phenomenal. My mother really enjoyed her spicy salmon, rice and vegetables dish. The drinks and our server were exceptional. HOWEVER, I was accidentally charged for an item that we didn't receive. I made multiple attempts to get this resolved and to no success. Although I've been told it's been resolved. Considering the great time we had here, this really sucks to have to add in this review. Really would love to give 5 starts otherwise.

    Deviled Eggs
    JL H.

    You don't have to love pickles or pickling but you should! Their Pickled Sampler which includes: 3-4 different types of pickles, String Beans, Carrots, Beets and Jalapeños is exquisite! It's a lot, very shareable! Shared with table of six (6) & STILL had to take home leftovers. Deviled Eggs are pillowy clouds of savoriness. Smoked Okra and Chiles are a must! With slivers of smoked Garlic to accompany and enhance. The Maple Chicken (Tenders) and French Challah Bread were humongous and enough to feed an army! The Grits and Collards need help, hence the 4 versus 5 stars. Grits need to be a more coarse stoneground versus the Cream of Wheat texture with more salt to give flavor! The Collards that are combined with the Black Eyed Peas need the Smokiness that was in the Peas, along with a finer cut, a tad more salt and more stewing for that real Pot Licka'! If you're doing Southern, it must be all-the-way RIGHT! The Smothered Chicken and Homemade Biscuits and the Regular did need the sauces to take the flavor UP (from Barbecue to Buffalo.) The Elote (Grilled Corn) with Pickled Jalapeños was slammin'! The Homemade Biscuit Special was Blueberry Lemon, which was turned into a warm Bread Pudding, topped with Vanilla ice cream. The portion was enough to share with our Table of 6, with a bit leftover. Street parking only so Sundays are your friend. Service is exceptional, swift and personable. For large parties, you must check-in with at least 3. JP is a definite NY must!

    When I say I am a long time pickle lover and have grown up in the South to know good southern cooking. I want to Marry whoever Jacob is because this is my next brunch staple on New York. The pickles were delicious the biscuits in gravy is better than your grandma's. Don't get me started also on the root beer. My one complaint is that the root beer is $5 a glass but that's okay because it is worth it and I don't need to drink a gallon of root beer. Got in with barely any wait time on a Sunday no less. I would make a reservation next time I go because it was very packed. If you like good food or love pickles this is the place to go. Can't wait to go back

    mac n cheese
    Gabby A.

    Wish I could give 4.5 stars, but rounding down! Came here for a late dinner with a group and was seated immediately. Our server was so nice and helpful throughout the whole meal. I got the jam jar to drink, which was delicious and a great size for the price! I also got the classic mac n cheese. While good, it was a little bit too dense and rich for my personal taste. Would love to come back and try more of the menu!!

    This was my first time at the new location which is definitely improved from the last one. My first time for dinner services I was not impressed with brunch last time. Went in the 4th of July and they seemed to have less staff which makes sense. Anyway we got Mac and cheese which was not worth it and then a cesear wrap but subbed salmon instead of chicken. They did not inform us that it would be an up charge for the substitution and it was disappointing when the check came it was a surprise. They should tell customers when something is in up charge and not just say yes we can do the change. They played the World Cup game and it was good energy for a holiday weekend dinner in the neighborhood so the ambiance was fine. I'd go back with friends to try more items that were better for sharing then for two people. Would be great if a manager could resolve the issue about the up charge.

    Ask the Community - Jacob's Pickles

    I love all of the food there. Exactly what kind of pickles are 'Special sours"? Can they be bought…

    I'm not sure what they are. They just might be sours. Their pickles are delicious but I don't think they can be bought on line. Why not check their website?

    Are the meatballs beef or are there other meats in them as well?

    Ah man I actually don't know. I would assume they are beef

    Do the biscuits contain lard?

    No, they don't.

    Are the banana pudding pancakes a permanent addition to the menu? Please say yes! 😂

    I think I wrote for the wrong pickle store. The one I was writing about is in Clinton,nj. Sorry

    What are the chances of scoring a table for 4 at noon on a friday?

    High - they are not too busy during the day

    Do they have a Happy Hour?

    Do you have bottomless mimosas?

    Hi Anna I'm pretty sure they do not offer that. It's by the drink

    Can my dog join us?

    Yes, they have covered, heated outdoor seating that's very nice and your dog is definitely welcome. I saw other dogs in there during my visit.

    Is the brunch menu only for weekends? Do you serve food in the morning on weekdays? Where's the non-dinner menu?

    I'm 99% sure it is everyday

    I have a picky child, is there a kids menu or will see have to be creative with the regular dinner menu?

    There is no kids menu. I recommend sharing an item from the menu as the portions are large enough to share.

    Do they have heaters for outdoor dining?

    Yes, they do!!! (:

    Is Jacobs pickles dog friendly?

    They have outdoor seating, that would be your best bet. Inside it is pretty cramped and not much room for pets.

    What time does brunch end?

    4 PM!

    What are the vegan options?

    Most of their pickles, a few of the starters like fried pickles, fried green tomatoes, okra & chiles, and a few of the sides like house fries, house salad, side of fruit.

    Is there even one single vegan option? EDIT: besides pickles

    All the sides are vegan except for the Collards & Black Eye Peas because that's cooked with pork shoulder; and the biscuits. I'm not sure what the Fried Pickles and the Fried Green Tomatoes are fried in though.

    Are the mashed potatoes gluten free?! (Or can be made GF without gravy?)

    Hi Ariel, thanks for reaching out! Our mashed potatoes can be made gluten free without the gravy. Hope you’ll be able to join us soon!

    Do they deliver?

    No!

    Is brunch still served on weekdays?

    Yes

    Can i make reservations for 2 people?

    Thanks for your interest in joining us! Although we do not accept reservations for parties less than 6, we do reserve the majority of our dining room for walk in guests. You will receive an estimated wait time when you place your name on the… Read more

    Are there any vegetarian options?

    Yes. Although it's overall meat heavy menu, for brunch there is plenty of veggie omelettes, pancakes, breakfast sandwiches, all available. Dinner, however would be much more disappointing for a vegetarian as there are very few options.

    This was my first visit. I will say for positives that the food is great.

The cheese plate was good and the server made great selections / recommendations for us on cheese to try. The server was very attentive. The music was great.

    I had one of the most disappointing and frankly unacceptable experiences at Smoke Jazz & Supper…read moreClub on March 28th for the 10 PM show. Let me be clear, the main redeeming aspect of this place is the talent on stage. The musicians were exceptional and deserved far better than the environment surrounding them. I ordered a scotch neat, something I'm very familiar with, and immediately knew something was off. When I politely flagged down a waiter, he responded with visible annoyance, as if I was inconveniencing him by being a paying customer. I explained the issue and simply asked if it could be checked or replaced. Instead of addressing it professionally, he walked away without a word, returned holding the bottle and my glass, and said, "this is what you were poured," before carelessly tossing the drink back onto the table. No apology. No explanation. Just attitude. It escalated from there. When I confronted him about his behavior, he denied it outright and then doubled down with an aggressive, confrontational stance, getting in my face and effectively threatening me. His exact words? "If I tossed your drink on the table, it would have been all over you!", and "Man, shut yo ass!" Completely unprofessional and unacceptable in any setting, let alone an establishment that positions itself as upscale. The manager's response was just as disappointing. Instead of addressing the behavior of his staff, he blamed me, asking why I "chased" the waiter and suggesting I should have gone directly to him. That's not how basic customer service works. I tried to resolve the issue directly, respectfully, and without escalation, something his employee clearly had no interest in. I was thinking if I talk to the waiter first, he wouldn't get in trouble with his manager. To make matters worse, the manager continued to defend the waiter rather than de-escalate the situation. At that point, it was clear this wasn't a one-off issue; it's a reflection of how this place operates. I paid my bill and left. For a venue that attracts world-class jazz talent, it's astonishing how low the standard of service is. This place is doing a disservice to the artists who perform there. I will never return, and I would strongly caution anyone expecting a professional, respectful experience to look elsewhere.
