The food is absolutely delicious. It was my first time trying anything with lamb. My burger was cooked as ordered and tasted great! It’s a really nice atmosphere and the lighting is good. It was just a little too noisy for me.

Our first time dining in. Before we used to get taken outs. And we loved the friendly service. Shout out to our server Barry!
We ordered the Happy hour nachos, Early Bird dinner: steak, blackened catfish and salmon and kid’s burger, and creme brulee. Everything was delicious although I would recommend the vegetable medley to have more flavors with herbs.
For the price, it’s a great place to have dinner with the family.

The restaurant was spacious. The hospitality of the staff was welcoming and friendly. We were seated quickly to our table and our server was considerate. First, he offered to take orders of what we wanted for drinks first while we skimmed the menu. Then, after giving enough time to look through the extensive menu, he came back to take our orders. After hearing we would share our food, he said he would be back with extra plates for us.
The food was as good. We ordered one basic 2x2x2, one Egg Benedict and one Lamb Burger. The portion was huge for us but they were all delicious. Our iced latte was also on point.
Will come again!

I have been to Jack’s many times.
There was never a charge for upgrading to Swedish pancakes. The Indian waiter said oh upgrade was from 4 years ago. What a liar. I said I was just 2 months ago.
Both the San Mateo and San Bruno branched have never charged for upgrading from the regular pancakes to the Swedish pancakes. When you order the combo.

I drive by this restaurant all the time and have never been. We decided to pop in before a local basketball game and we were so pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was fun and lively. The food was great. And the service was excellent. We will definitely go back!

One of my favorite comfort food places to eat. I frequent both this location in San Mateo and the one in San Bruno. I prefer the interior and ambience of the latter restaurant but parking there is challenging. The San Mateo restaurant is always busy as it’s in a great location between S El Camino Real and Hwy 92 – easy to get to. The service has always been friendly and attentive. The servers chat you up and make you feel at home. Also, love that breakfast is served until 2pm!
Our office came here to celebrate our coworker’s birthday for lunch. We started with the Mediterranean Sampler – my favorite is the tzatziki. I had a cup of the avgolemono which is a lemony chicken and rice soup that takes me back to my days in Santorini. The birthday guy had the lamb burger which he said was flavorful and juicy. The other two each had entree salads, one of which was the Asian Chicken Salad (see picture). Another had the gluten-free cheese macaroni which I’ve had before but would recommend it as a side dish with something more savory to complement the cheesey pasta. I enjoyed my usual dish, the polenta and summer veggies. The garlic red sauce and cheese just oozes in between the polenta and vegetables. The portion size will never disappoint as you’ll always have enough extra to take home.

Beautiful diner/ restaurant with a wide variety on their menu. They have a happy hour at the bar M-F as well. The portions are huge!!! Arrived for dinner on a weekday and We had the calamari to start and added fried jalapeño, it was crispy and delicious and so good. We ordered the burger with onion rings and the gyro with fries. The food was all good, but very oily so we can’t have it often. We had plenty of leftovers to bring home. Our server was extremely nice and helpful!! The interior of the restraunt is so beautiful and spacious. Plenty of parking.

We were in the area and decided to have breakfast at Jack’s. This is a very popular restaurant so it was crowded and we didn’t have reservations so you have to wait to get a table. Luckily, two people got up and left from the bar, so we grabbed the two seats. Ordered a Mimosa and Bloody Mary to start. We had the “The Standard ” and chose two eggs, pork sausage, hash browns, and biscuits. We also ordered blueberry pancakes and a side of hash browns. Everything that we ate was really tasty and the service was good. Sitting at the bar, there’s three TV’s if you want to watch sports on the weekend.

We came here once for brunch and once for dinner. It gets quite busy during peak brunch time, but the restaurant is huge and we were seated very quickly.
They have a huge menu with a Greek influence. I really enjoyed their gyros and lamb burger. Gyros had warm toasted pita bread which went really well with the meat and cucumber. The sauce was a perfect amount. Lamb burger is super flavorful and something I’ve never tried before. We followed the waiters suggestion on the recommended doneness and it was really good. Their breakfast hash is also a winner – perfectly crispy on one side and soft on the other.
I got their strawberry cooler mocktail which was way too sweet and difficult to drink because they did not balance the sweetness with any other flavor.

First time there, and the restaurant looks nice, with a relaxed and calm atmosphere, without any loud music or screaming TVs. The food was delicious as well, and literally everything I order from the menu taste awesome.
I arrived at 7pm on a Sunday evening, and the place was actually not too crowded.
Parking is easy to find and free, since it’s a big commercial area.
Would definitely go again !
