Daddy Jack's Restaurant & Bar

Daddy Jacks has the best clam chowder!!All the food is delicious and a real nice bar vibe. Great staff too!

Such a great neighborhood restaurant! We came here on a Saturday evening, and it was pretty crowded but we were greeted immediately. Our server was really nice and very helpful as we could not make up our minds (I wish I got her name). We ordered the potato skins and toasted mozzarella as an appetizer. The potato skins were just okay--they seemed a bit overcooked.I heard good things about their steaks, so that's what we went for! I got the filet with a side Caesar salad, and my fiancé ordered the New York strip with rice pilaf and green beans. Both entrees were pretty good! I recommend getting your steak cooked in garlic butter.Overall, a great spot for dinner with friends or a casual date night!

I've been here many times and have never been disappointed. We arrived for a 6:30 reservation. They almost tried to tell us we'd have to wait because they were extremely busy, but when I insisted because we did have a reservation, they quickly found a half-booth table.The restaurant was very busy that night, but it tends to be popular on Friday nights. There was some light music playing in the background as well.Trina was very friendly and didn't make us wait long before greeting us. My wife ordered a draft cream ale to drink and I just stayed with my water for my drink.They started us off with a warm crusty multi-grain half loaf of bread that came with a sweet cinnamon whipped butter for spreading. I didn't have any, but my wife did and she loved it. She always loves their bread!For my entree, I ordered their always delectable seafood fettuccine with a side salad with ranch dressing as my side. My wife ordered the New York strip steak cooked medium rare with a baked potato with butter and sour cream as well as a side salad with blue cheese dressing.The salads came out first and were on a small chilled dish. They looked nice and tasted fresh with mixed greens, a thick slice of tomato, a thick slice of cucumber, a pepperoncini, some shredded cheese and sunflower seeds on top.When my seafood fettuccine came out it looked and tasted absolutely delicious as always. Big juicy sea scallops, tender pieces of crab, tender and juicy shrimp and green onions coated with plenty of a light creamy sauce that has a hint of lemon and garlic and comes with Parmesan cheese on top, a piece of garlic bread and a lemon wedge on the side, and a nice big spoon on the side for twirling the pasta. There was I believe parsley sprinkled on the outside rim of the plate for decoration purposes. I had a happy tummy when I was done eating.My wife was very pleased with her New York strip steak. It was 13 ounces of USDA choice strip charbroiled to medium rare. It looked really good, tender and juicy and she happily told me it was. The baked potato was a nice size and looked nice and fluffy inside before my wife added the whipped butter and sour cream to it. She enjoyed the potato as well.Trina was very good at making sure we had everything we needed and refilled my water as needed.I used the bathroom before we left. Both the bathroom and the restaurant seemed very clean.We will always return and I will always get their seafood fettuccine!

Daddy Jack's is rumored to be torn down in the up and coming future. We would hate to see this happen as there are many great businesses in this strip center.We came here tonight to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We always have a wonderful dinner with excellent service in a comfortable and warm environment.Since we were experiencing perfect weather on this beautiful evening, we opted to sit on the patio. Indoors is cozy with low lighting with booths, tables, and a large bar. The patio is located directly in front of the entrance.I love so many things on their menu. The menu offers a wide selection of delicious appetizers, numerous selections of sushi rolls (from Kona Jack's), soups, and fresh salads. Diverse selections of wonderful sandwiches or an amazing dinner of steaks, seafood, chicken, or pasta dishes.My husband ordered the Glazed Salmon served with baked potato and rice pilaf. He raved about the perfectly prepared glazed salmon, along with his perfect baked potato.I ordered the super tender Chicken Piccata with a house salad, bleu cheese dressing, and a loaded baked potato. The lemony white sauce is light and flavorful with capers and a touch of garlic. For dessert, try their house-made scrumptious lemon cake served warm and topped with whipped cream.If you've never been to Daddy Jack's, make a point of stopping in. You will not regret it.

Love this old school seafood spot! Visited here to celebrate a birthday on a Saturday night with a lovely sushi dinner. The place was super busy but we were able to get a table despite not having a reservation. I love the beach inspired decor here as well as the many large fish tanks. Once you're here, you might forget you're in landlocked Indiana! DJ's has some amazing fish dinners but don't sleep on the sushi, honestly it's always been delicious. We chose four rolls and a bowl of lalo miso, a unique spin on traditional miso soup. The rolls were fresh, flavorful and nicely presented. Our server was very friendly, helpful and efficient. We had plenty of time to celebrate and enjoy the meal.

Thank goodness for reservations because this place is hopping even on a weekday night. It's a space from yesteryear which makes it feel warm and cozy. The service here was impecable. Shout out to Lisa who managed our rowdy group and all our requests along with separate checks. Yes they add the gratuity automatically, but she deserved it and more. The food was good. All my guests raved about their dishes. I had ordered the nachos with chili and I hate to say it, but it was just really bland. I'll have to try something else next time. I did try a bit of the soup of the day and it was delicious, nice and full of flavor and with a bit of spice even. The Ceasar salad with salmon not only looked deliious but it was devoured quickly, which is always a good sign. While I didn't personally eat it, the lemon cake looked and was deemed as wonderful by all that tried it. I comes warm, drenched in lemony syrup and dollops of whipped cream.

Cannot recommend. My folks like this place, but after tonight's visit I will not be back. I ordered the Tilapia which was supposed to be "lightly blackened and topped with our tomato basil butter." Sounded great and I was looking forward to it. Instead it came out sautéed in a lemon wine sauce with capers. I pointed out immediately that the dish was not as described: blackened with tomato basil butter.The manager delivering the entrees said, "Oh yeah, it does come that way. I can have them re make it for you, but it will take a while." According to the menu you can have the tilapia with the lemon wine sauce if you request it, which I did not. I've had the lemon wine sauce on their seasonal walleye and did not like it. In fact as we drove their I reminded myself to not order anything with the lemon wine sauce. So I was thoroughly disappointed. I was not gonna wait "a while" for the correct dish while my dad ate. The manager then stated he would take care of it on the check and never did. But at least he and the server neglected to thank us for coming in as we literally bumped into them on the way out the door.

Good service, older place ok food. Would not recommend the French dip, it didn't seem fresh at all and was a bit disappointing. Fries were wonderful, ranch was delicious and steak on rice was good.

Excellent establishment, great food, and good service. Had a fantastic time. People were friendly. Drinks were good love the desserts. What more could you actually ask for Supremo?

It was a very busy Monday night with several large family parties! Service was slow due to parties and location of our seating. We asked to be changed, and moved 1 table away. I will truly be happy to see Kona Jacks reopen! Overpriced for what we had. Very limited wine list.
