   The service at Jocko’s Steakhouse was fast, friendly, and attentive. You can tell immediately that the service staff take pride in making the dining experience wonderful for their customers. Now to the food, the 20oz Spencer (aka Ribeye) was tender, well seasoned, and delicious. I now understand why people wave about the steaks at Jocko’s, because the grill master knows what they are doing! Our party also had the lamb chops and the filet mignon. The chilled pickles brought back memories of the big pickles that I would get from the corner store after school. The complimentary ice cream (we had egg nog and coconut pineapple)was superb. The restaurant is loud and the dress is casual (jeans are acceptable), which created a relaxed vibe. Reservations are highly recommended. I was able to secure our 7:45 pm Christmas Eve reservation just a few days before. They do take walk-ins, but I wouldn’t recommend that unless you plan to wait it out at the bar. Jocko’s lived up to the hype!

   Mom and I really enjoyed our visit to Jocko’s. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with friendly faces. The front door host guided us to our table, mom uses a walker. Our server Jake was very affable and helpful as we ordered our food. The grilled artichoke, salad, filet mignon with all house made dressings and sauces were fantastic. We also appreciated the home style beans,bread and ice cream dessert with chocolate syrup. We really liked the service. Special thank you to Manager Andrew who took good care of us above and beyond like a God-Father. Thanks everybody for a wonderful dining experience. We highly recommend Jocko’s!

   Noisy and hopping even on a Tuesday, but gosh darn if they don’t have the best steak for the best value. Drive 100 miles for dinner!

   Jacko’s is hands down one of the best steak places in the area, a true gem that has stood the test of time since 1925. We absolutely love their food—every steak is massive, cooked to absolute perfection, and bursting with incredible flavor. The sides and accompaniments are equally impressive, complementing the meat beautifully and making the entire dining experience unforgettable. Although they’re only open for dinner and just a few nights a week, it’s well worth planning your visit around their schedule. The cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and timeless charm make this place a must-visit for steak lovers. Jacko’s is nothing short of amazing, and we can’t wait to come back for another fantastic meal!

    We hadn’t been to Jocko’s in a number of years and the first pleasant surprise was that they now take reservations. The second surprise is that the 1950’s era looking tables , chairs, and interior had been replaced. We were seated promptly, and ordered our dinner. The salad came quickly, the interval to our entrees seemed longer than ideal. My wife had the Salmon and I had the Ribeye Steak, both were prepared perfectly and were delicious. We enjoyed our dinners and definitely will be going back soon.
