Best Restaurants with Dancing in Platt Park

We visited Jax last night. As usual, we were greeted warmly, and seated in a comfortable nook. Our trusted-guide/bartender, Ryan, nodded to us and began to mix his incomparable Old Fashioned cocktail that we love so much. Tyler, the Manager, stopped by to catch up with us. It is great to feel so welcomed; like coming home! All of our friends stopped by, one by one, to say 'Hi!', as they passed to take care of their diners. Again, we felt welcomed home. Chef Jenn makes a wonderful Norwegian Salmon dish that, I confessed, I wolf down much too fast. She graciously fulfilled my request for a bit more salmon, for a bit more money; and I was happily filled with the excellent taste. We are able to explore different dishes, because we trust Chef Jenn's palate; she has a knack for blending diverse flavors into a meal that compliments each other. We can taste the care, and purpose of her presentations. Her flavors 'play nice' with each other. We were served by Cody last night. He was new to us, and we felt very comfortable with him immediately. He was attentive, without being pushy. He gave us good advice. He is the kind of person we expect at Jax! The communication between the Manager Tyler, Chef Jenn and Server Cody was seamless; they all handled my portion request as one; no need for me to explain, they were all on the same page with me. It is exceedingly rare to find any place that welcomes, serves, and satisfies their clients so effortlessly. Our visits to Jax in Glendale always leave us warmly satisfied. It is an 'occasion' for us, not just a food stop. Thanks to Tyler, Jenn, and Kemosabe Ryan, as well as our other friends at Jax in Glendale!

Excellent date night. Food was tasty and inventive. The dumpling wrappers and the Malaysian noodles were a bit too thick and chewy for my taste but the flavors were amazing and really well blended. Excellent service. The best I’ve had in a really long time. Dishes were timed perfectly and they even gave us a complimentary anniversary dessert, which was our favorite dish of the night! Highly recommend.

Such a blast. The bartender even set up a wine tasting for us

Delicious food and very kind service. Can’t wait to go back.

It was a fun atmosphere, music was loud. Our sever seemed a bit distracted with prepping for the upcoming rooftop party but overall it was good.
