Went here New Years 2025 for a late lunch. Servers were attentive and menu had a good mix of cocktails and core foods. We ordered a Cali benedict and a steak egg sandwich. We also had the Kentucky Bourbon and Fresh n Clean. The portions were decent size and the fries really crisp and flavored. Drinks had an aftertaste I couldnt put my finger on, similar to an spritzy alcohol aperol and buds did not prefer. Drinks were made strong and would recommend this place as all were presented well and food was tasty. read more

Came in for some breakfast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They Sat us in the lounge area since there wasn't anymore seating in the restaurant side.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I felt like they forgot about us because we waited for menus for quite some time. Once we got our menus, it looked like they were talking to each other to see who would help us, which took another several minutes to get our order in. When the server did come, she was very nice and pleasant. I ordered the chicken and waffles. The chicken tasted amazing. I really enjoyed it along with the waffle. The kids loved their waffles and pancakes. Overall, once we got our food, the server and helpers were great. read more

We had a *stellar* brunch at Jax while vising our friends in Napa recently! Cue SNL's Stefon breathy enthusiasm...this place has (everything). Hubby had a breakfast burrito and a bomb bacon Bloody. I had Chilaquiles with chorizo, and our friends ordered a pair-o-bennies - The Jax Benny with chipotle hollandaise (just say that again, out loud this time...chipotle hollandaise!) and a veggie heavy Cali Benny for our ehem, healthiest of dining companions. Not to worry, tho, we threw in some beignets to round that out! And cocktails, natch, becasue no one likes a quitter. The tots that come with the breakfast bennies are absolute CRACK. Not sure what pixie magic goes into these delectable 'lil crunchy bites of heaven, but I'm pretty sure it's crack. In fact, my new motto is: I heart crack tots. Oh, and as if crack isn't enough to have you fiending for more Jax brunch, the beignets come with a warm caramel sauce. You guys. Freshly fried pillows of dough with freakin' caramel sauce, OK?!?!? Oh, and they have a full bar and a WALL OF WHISKEY. Just go. Take people you like. Eat Brunch. Conquer your day. read more

My friend and I enjoyed a lovely Sunday brunch yesterday before heading over to Bottlerock and we are sure glad we did!! The food was solid, yummy and reasonably priced for Napa and on a busy weekend. My friend and I needed to base up for the day so brunching before a full day of fun and music was definitely in our plans, we are responsible! Ha! Anyhow, we shared a breakfast burrito and the Bottlerock tots, both delicious and filling. Besides food, we got the party starts with a carafe of champagne with sides of juices; mango and guava! They provided plenty of Mimosa juice options. Service was also stellar. Our server was prompt, friendly, and even took some pics for us!! You can't ask for more, really!! read more

The bootlegger's fried chicken house, gravy, eggs, and toast was to die, for everything was cooked to perfection. The toast was toasted just right, not too much just enough and then we move on to dessert, the beignets with a caramel dipping sauce. It was a brunch gangsta's paradise. [[HIGHLIGHT]]5 1/2 stars it's the perfect time of year to go because it's very few people here there as in summer.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's usually a line out the door with a 30 minute wait read more

We were very happy to stumbled upon Jax White Mule! The food was yummy and the service was pleasant and friendly! The grits was the best we ever had, the consistency, the cheese is not overwhelming, and the shrimp was seasoned well and cooked perfectly. The steak and eggs were excellent but over shadowed by the grits! LOL. The Irish coffee was the perfect beverage on this beautiful Napa morning! read more

Came in for brunch at about 11AM and was seated right away! The service was good and the food wait time was quick. I personally really enjoyed the biscuits and gravy. I will say I chose to add sausage and it was a bit salty but nonetheless it was still a tasty dish. I wasn't a big fan of the beignets, they were over fried and the caramel on the side was too sweet for my liking. read more

While walking around downtown Napa, I stopped here for lunch. I wanted something light so I had the Avocado toast without the egg and a side of tots. I need some sort of sauce but overall it was a nice meal. Liked the avocado and arugula salad on top. Loved the tots. Would have like a drink refill but was never asked if I wanted another one. read more

I've been here multiple times and they never disappoint. This recent one we went to dinner here for the first time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love it here! They were hosting a game night which made our Thursday night interesting. Love the atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food is good and drinks is always an A+ but it low key sucked that that night we visited they ran out of wings. But for brunch! 10/10 recommend the mimosas are always good and the beignets is a must try! Brunch menu is pretty solid comes with sweet and savory options. read more

We were looking for a low-key spot for an early brunch (is that breakfast?) in downtown Napa. I was excited to find that they allowed for half orders of beignets which were delicious - hot, fluffy and light. I ordered the carnitas hash for my main, and it was lighter than I expected....in a good way! The carnitas hash was loaded with veggies, and made me feel less guilty about the indulgent meal. Service was fast and friendly (our iced tea showed up before our server even finished taking our order!) and there was no wait (though it was around 10/10:30am). read more

Being a Moscow Mule fan I went in with high hopes. The stumbling blocks I met that resulted in the 3 stars was. The JAX Mule missed the mark and just didn't have the ginger beer and lime punch. Menu choices for dinner are minimal. Now if you are out for the bar seen and no food craving then I would give a four or five stars. The drink menu was plentiful and there were good draft choice. Though the German Pilsner I wanted was tapped out, darn. I ordered the flat stake and bowl of olives. I will say the stake is a worth it's price. You get a good portion and comes with lots of fingerling potatoes. The olives also hit the spot. Love olives and rare to find olives on a menu. It was also nice they had live music on my visit. The music was good. Now maybe I hit a bad night and willing to return perhaps on my revisit I can upgrade my review. read more

I'm a local here in the Napa Valley, I've been eating at Jax from the first day they opened. I've never had an issue or a problem. Today was the worst service and food with deception I've ever experienced here. If the owner and management wants get a hold of me, they can private message me so I can explain. There's a lot of training that needs to be addressed. I will never eat brunch or lunch there again, if I do come back, it'll only be for the happy hour. The folks in the evening time are great. The Customer Service was unacceptable to say the least. So everybody knows be aware of the up charges on their menu. We had no idea, because it's a new update, we were charged for the choices of bread with our meal. They gave biscuits as a choice and we were charged $4 each. No manager present. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Very cute place in a convenient area with loads of parking around.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Even if you have to walk there's a lot to see so its really nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] First timer here for a gals brunch and we were satisfied to say the least. We came on a busy Sunday morning and we're still seated right away, love! Portions were a little bit on the smaller side but they were really yummy so I can't really complain! I was bummed they only had tater tots as a potato option, I was looking forward to hash browns. Menu is lengthy so there's tons of great option. We opted for the bottomless mimosas $25 a person, not so much worth it because we had to keep asking for refills and I feel if you're paying for bottomless they should keep 'em coming. Our waitress was amazing despite that, don't let it scare you away! Overall I will still come back and enjoy their food and service. read more

Sunday September 29, 2024... Horrible food. Inedible. We are locals and we will never go back read more

Breakfast was mediocre. Got the avocado toast with hash browns. The sunny side up eggs were extremely undercooked, had to scrape off half of them. I cant believe something like that can get out of the kitchen. The avocado was bland, it needer at least 2 more days to ripen. Service was extremely poor as well, slow coming for our order, with water and coffee refills, and not even once were we asked it we need anything. read more

We tried to have food and drinls here on Friday around 5:30 PM but it was a no-go. We walked by the bar and someone helped us to a table. We got menus and some water, but after ten minutes, it was clear no one wanted to take our order. There was one table of two on the other side of the place and one table of two outside. Somehow that was too much for the staff to handle. I was wondering if they were trying to stall our order until after the happy hour time, but I really suspect no one wanted to work before the Friday rush. We walked out without being able to order drinks or food and gave another place a try. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Pleasantly surprised! It totally looks like a brew pub from the outside but it got full and crowded on the weekend when we went.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered a scramble dish, and they were happy to make some subs. I like my eggs on the runnier side. We also started with beignets which were delicious too! In essence, fancier donuts. Everyone enjoyed their food. A couple of people ordered their Benedicts and another ordered the carnitas hash. This place made me crave more bfast after. That's a good sign. read more

What a gem! Perfect spot for breakfast/brunch for a hangover (or not). Homemade biscuit is so flakey and airy & goes hand in hand with their country-style gravy and super juicy chicken fried chicken. Jax eggs Benedict with homemade English muffins and spicy hollandaise are killer! Don't forget their bottlerock homestyle potatoes and tots. Polish things off with their fluffy fresh beignets. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Chill atmosphere that is laid back and far from pretentious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you Johnny for making us feel at home and for guiding us through the menu so we got a little taste of everything. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great location downtown and surprisingly good food for a diner that seems more like a dark nightclub.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Food and service would rate a 4 but took off one star for a few things that were just off in the environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Street parking is difficult in this area but there are multiple lots within 1-2 blocks for easy parking. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The outside patio is on a small plaza with several other restaurants surrounding it that also have patio dining.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were a bit concerned when we saw only one other party seated at the patio and no one seated inside. During the course of our meal a few others were seated out there to fill it up a bit more. There are maybe 6-8 tables outside and only one server who did a great job managing everything. She kept our iced teas full, made a bunch of adjustments to our orders and promptly served the food. Unfortunately I didn't catch her name but was happy to provide a generous tip for her service. The menu is a bit lack-luster and is tucked in a menu book that seems more like a bar/drink menu than a food menu - multiple tabs for drink choices of all types of spirits. That format probably works better for evening than mid day or breakfast. I would recommend keeping that style menu for the drinks and moving the food menu to a different format. We stuck to breakfast/brunch and everything was fresh and well prepared, bread and eggs locally sourced. We had a a few starters to kick off our early Mother's Day celebration - beignets and a potato skillet. Both were amazing (5/5)! The beignets $12 come out hot with six to an order and you can choose cinnamon or powdered sugar with warm caramel sauce for dipping. I would definitely come back for more of those!! The Bottle rock potatoes $12 with melted cheddar cheese, bacon crumbles and topped with avocado and green onions was surprising good, plenty to share. For main dishes our party sampled the breakfast/brunch entrees described below, each priced around $18-20 BLAT (4/5)- thick style bacon, lettuce, avocado, and sliced tomatoes with aioli on wheat which we substituted brioche bun for the bread. Fresh berries on the side per our request but usually fruit selection is more diverse. For sides you can choose between French fries, tator tots, mixed greens, fruit, up charge for bottlerock (loaded) potatoes, truffle fries, etc Jax Breakfast (4/5) - soft scrambled eggs not overdone and generously portioned. Mixed greens with thin slices of apple and a tangy vinaigrette for the side. You get a choice of meat - bacon, sausage, ham, apple sausage, etc. Two links of apple sausage were dry and not very good, should have ordered the bacon. I substituted a biscuit for the toast for $3 up charge and it was worth it - flaky and delicious served with whipped butter. Hangover burger (4/5) - generous ground beef patty with cheese and a fried egg in a brioche bun, generous portion of French Fries on the side. California Bennie (4/5) - poached eggs served over English muffins with good hollandaise and lots of fresh vegetables (red peppers, spinach) with the crispiest tator tots ever on the side! read more

Beignets- good! Avocado toast- good! Experienced outdoor dining here when restrictions were lessening up. It felt like forever since we even ate out! We put our names on the list...promised 30 min for two people. They have a text system so you are notified when your table is ready. It was brunch time so I ordered the avocado toast. The fried egg on top was the perfect touch. I elected to have hashbrowns with it and I'm so glad I did- buttery goodness and melts in your mouth kind of good! Kid you not, nothing was left on my plate. I wish the serving was just a bit more. The beignets were the just right dessert sweetness we needed at the end of our meal (even though we got them at the beginning of our meal). Service was decent. We were checked on once, no issues. Servers wear masks and give great suggestions. Parking is a pain here though. We got lucky and found a spot at the parking lot across from here. Plan to walk if you can't find any near by. Overall I would come back here again and try something different. Nice to come to this side of napa on a nice day. Take some time to walk around and check out the area. read more

We stopped by for a Saturday morning bfast and had a good time! It took a moment to get seated but they took our order fairly soon afterwards and our food came out quickly. Our group got the carnivore scramble with country potatoes, Cali benny with hash browns, and The Jax with fruit. Long story short, everything came out hot and tasted very good. The portion sizes were pretty generous as well. Jax diner has some solid breakfast/brunch options where there's probably something for everyone. Service was pleasant and efficient as well. Would recommend! read more

It's been more than 20 minutes after we got seated, everyone who were seated after us got water and coffee... we are still waiting. I will update my review after the water arrives. Update: food and coffee finally arrived. They were lukewarm. Then as I cut open my egg Benedict there was a hair in the egg....potato tots tasted like they were fried in cheap oil, which left a unpleasant aftertaste. read more

This has to be one of my favorite brunch spots in downtown Napa. It wasn't too busy when we got there. We beat the rush. The guacamole was delicious for an appetizer. However!!!! My chicken fried chicken was delicious! The chicken was not dry. It was juicy and crispy with that delicious gravy topping and then to have over easy eggs and tots with an English muffin too. It was lots of food but definitely worth it. And of course, can't do brunch without a mimosa. Check this place out: read more

Great food and service. The menu is smaller, they service breakfast and lunch. They have a full bar. We had lunch- a burger and a sandwich. They were both very good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice ambiance, very casual but nicely kept.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a sense of humor evident in some of their specials. Sorry no pictures. read more

Okay, really. Self-described as "The epitome of luxurious weekend dining". Um, it's a regular ol' place, no luxury about it. If you need to me reminded of what luxurious is, head down to RH in Yountville. The bar is very low, my friends. During COVID-19's recovery, the menu is small. Very small. I wanted pancakes, nope. I wanted french toast, nope. I wanted corned beef hash & eggs, nope. Instead, they only had about 8 items: eggs benidect, a breakfast burrito, chicken fried chicken, fresh beignets, chicken & waffles. I had the Jax Breakfast [$14, 3.5 stars] - simple! 2 eggs, 2 bacon, sausage patty, 1 sourdough toast, and tator tots. The gf got the eggs benedict [$14], and she was right, the hollandaise was just weird with an odd and unusual flavor. Servce was nice, but minimal. Bottomline, not impressive whatsoever. Unless you refer to the cocktail prices, $15+? C'mon. read more

Service: Heavily lacking. Visitation: 10/23/20 Check in time 10:24AM 10:48AM seated with menus but haven't been offered water or checked up on. I see no waiters/waitresses. I'm assuming they're short staff but the placed isn't packed at all. 10:50AM: Ordered placed 11:07AM: Food but no utensils. There's a table on the patio that hasn't been cleaned for more than 10 minutes... I don't even see a busser picking up dirty dishes... I've observed the same waiter who is delivering the food, also picking up dirty dishes... The vibe in here is really slow (like their service), it's making me sleepy. This is definitely not a "diner." Nothing about this defines what a typical diner is. They should just change their name to Jax. Due to COVID, it's very important to a majority of people of how businesses are ran and this place did not meet my expectations. I give this place 2 stars because their food didn't taste bad, but if I'm being honest, you can for sure get similar elsewhere. Overall, this place is not for me. read more

Beignets and Chicken and Waffles are always a must from here. Great spot to grab a quick breakfast in the morning and they have large TVs on the wall (which kept my antsy kids entertained until food arrived). Hot chocolate was watery so I guess that's good if you don't want your kid having a sugary hot chocolate but my kids were disappointed in it. But overall it's a great spot and a place we go back to. read more

Been here multiple times for brunch and we always left happy. They have an extensive menu with many options especially cocktails, I believe they have a full bar. They have pretty big portions at great price points for the area as well. My favorite treat is their beignets tossed in cinnamon sugar with caramel dipping sauce on the side. Freshly fried to perfection, so yummy and Paris perfectly with coffee or as a dessert. Don't miss out on this! read more

Not the BEST, unfortunately. Called to see how long the wait was. Was told 20-30 minute. No problem, gave them my name to put on the list. Get there within 10 minutes, check in, name was not on the list. Ok, no problem. 25 min way. Not bad. Ordered our food. Beignets to start, and three meals. Our food came out, and it was the smallest portion of chilaquiles I've ever seen. Flavor was good. I got the country Benedict. None of my food was hot, maybe warm. Our beignets came out after our food. And they were the wrong ones. We started eating them anyway. About 5 min later he comes to bring us the right ones but took them back because we already had eaten two of the wrong ones. Also they have the smallest water glasses ever, and once our meal came we never got refills. Overall, $90 for a very mediocre meal was not the best start to Father's Day. read more

Today I let my 13 year old pick our lunch spot. We walked around downtown looking at menus and she chose Jax. We checked in and were told it was a 15 minute wait. We gave a cell phone and walked around. We received a text 12 minutes later and were given a choice of inside or outside. Here were my thoughts.... Pros- -Food was delicious. My Benedict sauce lacked something but a small dash of hot sauce fixed it. Other than that it was so good. - Everyone was friendly - Bill was reasonable. Cons- - Wait after ordering food was long. It was about 10 minutes before we got our drinks (iced tea, Dr. Pepper) and 25 minutes before we got our meal. - Waitress seemed overwhelmed and was hard to find. That could be to COVID and staffing so we just went with the flow. -Beignets tasted like burnt oil. Not horrible but not my favorite this time. Overall it was a good meal and I would recommend trying it. read more

This was our first time here. We were a little confused at first because the sign actually says Jax White Mule. This place gets very busy. We got there around 10am and waited an hour for a table. Pretty good selection of food and they have a full bar. My husband ordered the chilaquiles which was too spicy for him so luckily I ordered a burger and we traded. I didn't mind because I love spice and the chilaquiles was delicious. My mouth was on fire though. My husband loved the burger. My kids loved the chicken and waffles. At 9 and 12 they each finished their own plates (not kid size). The star of the show though was the beignets. I got an assortment and they were delicious. If I am in the area and the wait is not long, I would definitely go again. read more

Delicious brunch options here, and the service is prompt and friendly. I got the carnitas hash, which was the perfect portion. I appreciated that there was a variety of veggies and not just carnitas and potatoes! It was delicious. Their Cali Benny was also very tasty. Get the tater tots with them! Super crispy and hot. We also really enjoyed their spicy bloody Marys. Overall, nothing outstanding per say, but everything was delicious and satisfying. We'd love to come back here for brunch again when we are back in Napa! read more

Came here with group of five on Saturday afternoon 3pm. Even at this time, the place was bustling and somewhat noisy. The tater tots featured as a side tasted fairly flavorful, especially with the melted cheese sauce, but some were a bit dry and like microwaved tater tots. The Chicken Sando had a nice portion size, but was not particularly great quality wise. Water came in glasses with much ice and served to us proactively when the waitress came to pick up our order. The food took a much longer wait. There was two large paintings adorning the wall and for sale, one of Al Capone which had an obvious typo (saying he died in 1847). The bathrooms were very smelly. The overall experience was very meh, but the place did good to not be pretentious or stingy with its food. read more
