1st time here–actually was T-bone but both restaurants in same building. . Got a burger, Crispy Chicken salad and a grill cheese. Got dipping sauce for our bread which was great..Food was all delicious. Our server was spot on- friendly, quick to fill our drinks, and had answers to our questions. Prices were not bad as well. 3 adult plates, Kids meal and dipping sauce with tax no gratuity was apprx $79.

Food is almost always a hit. Service is kind of slow (usually I eat here in the summer when it’s busy, so that’s understandable- but it’s slow in the winter too, when the restaurant is basically empty). Atmosphere is casual but you could dress up and go out to eat as well and not stand out too much. Prices are mid-high, but hey, everything is getting a price hike these days. Overall, this place is good. If you haven’t been, I’d make it a point to go at least once- in the summertime they have live music on the back patio.

We decided on takeout here while staying in Laconia with our pupparoni. This location is a T-Bones and Cactus Jacks in one, so you can choose from either menu. The deck is great, but not sure if it’s pet friendly.
Stopped in for a delicious lunch before the Memorial Day weekend rush next week.
They were obviously busy and probably a bit short staffed. The hostess was a bit stand offish about us picking up an order until we offered her a $10 tip and then her attitude was much better and helpful.
The food was good. Not great this time, but still good and we enjoyed it back at the inn while watching the sunset over the water.
Definitely stop in if you are in the area.
072124 update; We stopped into T-bones for dinner on the deck overlooking the water. The weather was perfect. Warm with a nice breeze off the water. Seafood tacos and cocktails were absolutely perfect. Staff was great and the guy playing tunes in the corner offered up just the right vibe.

I don’t get out much but came there for my Godsons 21st birthday. I have never had bad service and appreciate our waiter(Mr. Manbun) for a great service. Not staged Not over top,there at right time and over all very chill. I know what to expect when I visit.

This may have officially been Tbones, vs CJ. Went out on the new large deck. VERY nice night views of the water, deck was definitely great! Took forever to get a seat though, even though tables available. Then took forever to actually get our meals. Mine was so salty it was inedible, butter chicken. I had them put it on rice vs pasta so I guess it was special order.
I am adding below details that I should have really included in original. They did comp the meal and give us a gift certificate for future discount, which was very nice of them.

Oh, Joey H must be the kind of waiter who redefines disappointment. Imagine a service so slow it feels like watching paint dry. If you want your order forgotten, your water glass empty, and your patience tested, Joey’s your guy. Honestly, I’d have better luck getting a response from a cactus—at least it wouldn’t pretend to care. Avoid at all costs unless you enjoy being treated like an invisible inconvenience. We left at 10:15 after getting there at 8:30, service was terrible. But, I enjoyed time with my family.

Cactus Jacks has a mix of Mexican, pub food, and Cajun. I got an appetizer plate of 4 juicy (but not fatty) pork ribs, 4 sweet and spicy crunchy chicken tenders in a sweet and spicy sauce and 5 or 6 crunchy to perfection large chicken wings. Everything was delicious and our waitress was a delight.

We waited over 45 minutes being ignored by the hostess. Everyone was complaining. We walked upstairs to T Bones and immediately got a table with better service. The kitchen is the same. Menu is similar. Skip Cactus Jacks and just go upstairs

I couldn’t rate higher than a 1. When I drove up. There was a sign saying 15 min wait. I drove through the first parking lot. No spots. Drove through the 2nd lot, no spots. I parked illegally… walked past the 15 min wait sign, went into my husband, who i left out as I looking for parking, finally the hostess waited on us and told us there was a 40 min wait? With that, someone walked past is holding the 15 min wait sign….we did not wait. Went to the whisky tavern down the street instead. It was fantastic.
