Fresh fish - rotten prices and ambience
3 Star Rating: Average

11/02/2005 Posted by brockbier

Normally, I don't mind paying 20-30 dollars for a plate of food that still leaves me hungry. But, there needs to be some substance to the inspiration of the dish that makes me ignore the quantity of food sitting on the plate, or the wait service needs to be superior. Jax gets huge points for the freshness, but their dishes miss the mark in a completely uninspired dining experience. From the culinary dimensions of the menu, to the atmosphere and waitstaff, this restaurant is a loud, obnoxious bore. If you want to pretend that you are in a trendy New York oyster bar and don't mind paying top dollar for average food with poor service, this is the place for you!

Pros: fresh

Cons: overpriced, uninspired, dining

Insider Tips

The Extras

If it's available as a special, finish your meal with coffee-toffee pie: thick chocolate crust, espresso ice cream, whipped cream and cinnamon. Better than your morning fix.
