My favorite diner in the US. Every time we go up to the cabin, we eat here every day. The ladies…read moreand owner are sweet and attentive. My fiance has ordered the country fried steak (his favorite) along with the Reuben (also his favorite). I am vegetarian so I always order the veggie sandwich with curly fries. It's to die for. The sauce is yummy and it's served on rye bread. I order it every time I am in town. It's the sandwich you can't get tired of. I really appreciate that the diner offers a vegetarian option. You don't really find family-oriented and delicious diners so this one is very special to my heart. Also, don't leave without a slice of pie! They are homemade and delicious. My favorites are the coconut cream pie, blueberry, and apple. It's like your going to grandma's house for a holiday dinner there. Come hungry! :) Also, thank you Jack's and everyone who works there. I always feel so good coming in. I just can't say enough about this place. Your dear friend from Chicago. :)

After reading the menu my cousin and my wife and I selected items for dining. The waiter urged…read moreselection of 3 sides for my cousin - and, since my wife likes sweet potato fries, added the sweet potato fries to her order for steak and shrimp plus 3 sides. I ordered the cod and 2 sides (reduced to two pieces of cod) from the same menu. at that time, NO mention was made of price changes for the sides. We think - if the menu says 3 sides included - that they should not incur an 'add-on' charge - the word INCLUDED doesn't mention additional cost. those that incur a cost should be separated from the selections that are included, and not listed mixed into the included ones. We dined, but the waiter apparently does not have much experience - and had to be asked for steak sauce, and shrimp sauce. Those normally are either offered at time of order - or brought with the steak and shrimp. When I received the bill, I was surprised that the "included sides" had been charged and the price for them changed from what shows on the menu. When I protested that isn't what the menu states - the other waiter (older and maybe more experienced), said that the owner increased prices on the add-on sides. I replied, "that isn't what the menu lists and I'm not paying for increases not listed." I consider this deceptive advertising - it would have taken only a few minutes to adjust their printed menu prices with an ink pen and be 'up front' with diners about the prices one is expected to pay. I wonder how long it will take before the prices are either inked in to be accurate or reprinted menus provided... I don't know what others think about this, or how many others actually look at the prices - - but I plan to find other places to dine out when I come to visit my cousin for a couple weeks a year. The bar two doors over has great food too - and their menu reflects the prices that are on your bill. I looked at the Jacks online menu today, May 8, and the higher prices for add-on sides shows there. The increases/changes are not reflected in the in-restaurant printed menus as of May 7. Things like that might have something to do with the rather sparse turnout last evening or it could be some other factor in play. Years ago, Jacks was always crowded when we came to visit.

If I love anything more than my own children, it's bar food. Sometimes you just need to bury…read moreyourself in some greasy, fried food made under the music of Led Zeppelin or Sammy Hagar by a cook two packs deep and three shots in. As a solo eater this evening, I naturally ordered an appetizer and a burger, to get that full bar food effect. The appetizer was five (5) breaded jalapeño poppers. Those bad boys came out in the traditional paper boat only a bar can serve food in. It comes with ranch and when I popped that top off the little plastic ramekin, my heart melted more than when I saw a double rainbow. You guessed it. Home. Made. Ranch. You could put homemade ranch on a stick and I'd eat it. The poppers had that perfect breaded crunch, perfect amount of cream cheese filling, and good jalapeño taste. Poppers w/ life changing ranch 8/10. My main course was an olive burger. Nothing particularly popped out at me on the menu, so I just took my time scanning it and let the Bar of Influence™ guide me. I started with just the typical Bay de Noc burger, which is just "burger and bun." Direct quote. But I called an audible and decided to roll with the Olive Burger. Now, personally, I believe a top notch Olive Burger is made with an olive spread AND mayo. Not just olives and mayo. But, sometimes just that olive flavor calls and I don't care how I answer the phone. (To be clear, I answered the phone and it was just olives and mayo). Since I was feeling extra gluttonous, I added another patty. Stop. I know. I call myself those names, too. I do think that bonus patty might have been the patty that broke the camels back. Don't get me wrong, I polished it all off, but I felt degraded afterwards. OBDP (Olive Burger, Double Patty) 7/10. OBSP (Olive Burger, Single Patty) 7.75/10 "But what about the fries?" - You, probably. Okokok, relax. The fries were actually amazing. I never know the name/style of these fries (they looked normal with kind of like crispies stuck to them. Also kind of batter-y? I don't know. I'm not a potato). They had a crispy potato-y outside with a soft potato-y inside. They were the perfect doneness. Unknown Potato Style Fries 10/10. The ambiance was your typical bar type ambiance. High tables, low tables, pool table, juke box, tvs with sports, keno. Good spot. Go do it.

A kind and honest person brought it to the cashier, who then gave it to the manager. We used Google to determine the name of the truck stop and obtain a phone number. After discussing the contents with the manager, he agreed to go to the post office and have it shipped to us via two-day service (the fastest they had to our location). We paid for the shipping out of the cash in the purse and we received the purse in two days with nothing missing. The manager Jim also provided us the receipt with the change from the shipping costs. What incredible customer service!!! We offered him some cash as a reward, but he refused it. We really feel blessed to have received this type of service and honesty by all involved.

Went for a fish fry and left disappointed!!!…read more Fish fry was 19.95, shrimp was $15.99 and neither were worth it. Fish was greasy which means the oil was not above 375. The batter should be crisp not greasy after its cooked. The salad bar wasn't anything special. Croutons were stale, the chix pepper jack soup was lumpy which means it was old. Beans had zero flavor.

My husband got the Lake Fish Trio, it had good portions of Walleye, White Fish and Perch, served with French fries, grilled veggies, warm dinner roll AND the all you can eat soup and salad bar ( that had baked beans and deep fried mac & cheese balls!) Our waitress (Jen?) was excellent, our drinks were not even to the half way mark and she was quick to refill them, came back quickly after we received our meals to check if everything was okay. I ordered the breaded Shrimp. It was (panko?) breaded, butterflied, golden brown and perfect, with French fries ( we had potato choices, et but stuck with the fries since it was our first time trying the place). Mine also came with the soup and salad bar. What a great meal from this little diner. We plan on going back again to try the prime rib! We didn't set the bar high because it was a "truck stop" and were so pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food there!
