“ I hadn't been there in over 20 years, it was delicious then and still delicious. They have an awesome patio (the boss needs to kick up and buy another heater ). Had their salad with bleu cheese, I could have licked the bowl. The best part was the Filet Mignon, awesome! If you haven't been go, you don't know what you are missing out on ”
“ Celebrated my mother's birthday @ Jacks Grill 12/23/24. It was Lovely experience. The Top Sirloin was Great. My water was always Full. ”
“ This restaurant has around since 1938. Ambiance was like an old west saloon. Service was friendly, attentive but not intrusive. We had a NY and Filet. Came with a large baked potato . Salad was generous. Came in a salad bow That had more than 2 servings. Lots of blue cheese. Dinner came with garlic bread. Steaks were cooked as ordered. Nicely seasoned. Overall, good value for the money ”
“ Dinner at Jack's reminded me of Ray's the Steaks just outside DC. Simple, straightforward, solid steaks and fixin's. None of the fluff. J and I shared the 16-ounce filet meal, which was absolutely ample food for two. Their house bleu cheese dressing is locally legendary and didn't disappoint. I had to resist the temptation to help myself to seconds and thirds to save room for the meat and potatoes. True to form, our steak was cooked to a flawless medium rare and I was pleased with the superb crust seared onto our cut. Word to the wise: beware the horseradish. They aren't messing around with any weaksauce cream; this stuff is borderline atomic. I underestimated its potency on my first bite and rapidly discovered next-level cleared sinuses (and a little wheezing and shortness of breath). At under $60, I felt both quality and quantity of food was superb. Service is friendly, albeit a little slow. Fortunately, we weren't in any rush, so that suited us just fine. Jack's is an institution in Redding, and for good reason. I'd definitely return! ”
“ I really like Jack's Grill, from the vintage look and feel of the dining room, the no nonsense bar, the old school menu, the friendly waiter service and the perfectly cooked steaks. It is small and a little divey, but I hope that they don't change. ”
“ It's Classic and Old school! Don't just trust me, ask anyone whos been there! Great service, quality of food and service staff.. What else do you want? Answer: "a steak from Jacks" right now!!! ”
“ Amazing steak, salad and wine! Our service couldn't have been better!! Linda, who's been here 37 years was so personable and attentive! ”
“ Friends said this was a good spot for steak, so we made a point to check this place out. Apparently, this restaurant was open during the building of the Shasta dam, and served the workers. I ordered the medium rare 10 oz New York strip and baked potato. The meal also came with a side salad and the dressing I ordered was the oil and vinegar. The steak came out perfectly cooked and was seasoned well. If you're not super hunger, then the 10 oz is perfect. The salad dressing was a little heavy on the vinegar for me even though I'm a big fan of vinegar. Overall: If you're in the mood for a solid steak, check this place out. ”
