    YALL. This jazz bar is about to turn into a jazz sports bar! :) Darryl is updating his menu and…read moreexpanding his food menu so everyone should get ready to eat, drink, and be merry here. The music is always popping & I can't get enough of the wings here. Good thing on Thursdays they have 80 cent wings available. One of my fave DJs also plays there on Thursday nights as well sooooo let's get her going ! Sea yall there for some good SOUL food like tri tip, ribs, sweet potatoes, Mac and cheese, and more!

    After supporting one of my Pastor friends, we decided to come to a restaurant we've never been…read morebefore. We searched up places near us, and this place had 4 stars. I will just say this was a very disappointing experience. When we arrived, no one was there. When the greeter did come, she hesitantly approached us and handed us a paper printed menu in a dark, empty restaurant, which immediately felt off to us. When our food was served, several items were served cold and lacked flavor. The catfish was barely seasoned and watery, while the chicken had this "special" barbecue sauce but no taste, the Mac and cheese was straight from a box, and was gummy like, and the greens tasted super watered down. The cornbread was extremely hard, and there were white particles floating in the water. Even basic items like the salt container were unusable, sticking to the container. The owner spoke with our group and hyped the restaurant up, but the food and overall experience did not match what was coming out of his mouth. I also noticed everyone else received cornbread with their meal while I did not. Assuming it came with the meal (since me and my brother ordered the exact same thing) I was later charged an extra $6 for it without being informed. Based on the food quality and overall experience, I won't be returning. If zero stars were an option, that's what I'd give.

    Two words: HAPPY HOUR!…read more Half the price and half the portions, but makes it easily shareable and allows you to try much more of the menu. A win win in my opinion and this place is now going to be a must stop every time I visit NorCal to go to Fanime since it's walking distance from the convention. We went on the first day of the con, which is Friday, and it was towards the tail end of the Happy Hour so it was pretty busy, but it was going to get more packed due to the dinner rush coming in. We were lucky to get a table and some seats, but on a normal day there's a good number of tables and seats and a counter in the back. You order through a QR code on the table and they bring your food to you. The server was friendly, informed us of what was in stock, what wasn't and super pleasant when dropping off our food. Love service with a smile (even in very busy and stressful conditions). I don't partake in alcohol, so I didn't take advantage of that, but they do have a solid menu variety of the types of drinks they do have. When I walked past to go to the restroom, there's a counter under some TV's showing what they have too. There's some photo opportunities in the hallway to the restroom, love the neon chicken angel wings photo op. For our dinner, we got the: 1) Corn Ribs: -Crispy, Cajun glazed corn ribs and you can get a side of sauce with this but they were seasoned so well that it was unnecessary to add it. -After seeing this at Disneyland, I was enamored by the concept of corn ribs and how novel they are, how easy it is to eat it from a full hulking corn cob. Delicious and interesting, I'd get it again for sure. 2) Fries: -Solid and crispy fries. Great for snacking between bites of meat and dipping in ketchup and sauces. They're good fries. 3) Cracklin' Chicken Bites: -I LOVE CRISPY CHICKEN SKIN. -If it's on the menu at a skewer, BBQ, or any other place, you bet I'm going to order this and when I saw this on the menu I HAD TO. -It's chicken bites with the crispy chicken skin pieces for flavor and texture. Think god tier popcorn chicken. Super yummy and crispy, little burst of indulgent oil from the skin, moist meat, and just addicting to eat in general. A must. 4) Potato Salad: -I love potato salad and this is a solid potato salad, a bit sour from the mustard, but great as a palate cleanser between all of the meat. I just think I wouldn't order this again, because everything else was so good and we had so much food. 5) Hot Links (a la cart): -Got 2 hot links for this one. Nice char on the edges and it has a good kick to it. I always get this when it's on the menu since I love sausage meats. Will definitely get it again. 6) Beef Brisket (a la cart): -Several slices of beef brisket, again, really nice char on the edges. Super moist and tender, flavorful meat. Good smoky flavor. Goes great with the BBQ sauces that they have there. A good, reliable protein choice. 7) The JuJu: -Shout out to Jackie's sister! -It's a mix of grape and cherry Kool-aid, nice sweet, fruity drink to wash down all of the umami and savory flavors. I love when places have unique, non-alcoholic drinks like this. We left right at the tail end of the Happy Hour and when the real Fanime Day 1/dinner rush came in and it was starting to get packed real quick so kudos to staff for holding down the fort. Definitely want to make this our Fanime tradition every year!

    I really was stoked when Jackie's Place added another location, this time in the heart of the…read moredowntown area of San Jose. I feel like family when I'm here. Everyone knows I'm ready to eat. The staff could easily each tell me their favorites and I would come away happy! They also knew if I could, I would totally try to eat the entire menu. The staff would keep asking if I enjoyed the food. I don't have to say a word. They could tell how much I enjoyed it by looking at my face!
