Daddy Jack's Restaurant Bar

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.

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.

I can't believe that I need to write this review but the food I had yesterday at Daddy Jack's wasn't their normal quality. French fries were dry and my grouper fish sandwich (no bun) was horrible. Did they get a different chef or cook? I'm shocked.

Daddy, Jack's is an outstanding restaurant to meet friends and colleagues for lunch and dinner. You can always expect top-notch service and their food is always cooked to temperature. Overall, we've been happy with our experience at this location.
