We have been going here since they were lined out the door in the early 90's. It's obviously not that way now, but the seafood has always been outstanding. Favs are the trout -- always pan-fried to perfection -- and the market lobster tail. They have recently changed it from a Maine-source to a Maritmes-Canada source and the improved qulity and sweetness/juiciness is readily apparent. For 28-30 there's no better deal in town.

Veggies are always crisp-cooked just right and th baked potato rivals Houston's -- crisp, well-cooked skin (which I love!) and nice, not mealy, interior. Two service people have worked there for a very long time and both are quirky but friendly, efficient and fun to talk with.

These guys are local, so keep going there. Let's keep them open in these tough times! Highly recommended!!

Interesting. Perhaps I'll have to give this place a second shot. I'll admit this is one of the few places I've walked out of before ordering because the waitress was so unpleasant I just didn't want to bother her with spending my money there.

My husband and I have been going to Daddy Jack's for years. We love seafood, especially Alaskan King Crab legs. I can not believe that more people don't know about this place. My husband and I are both in the service industry, he in bars, me in restaurants and we have never experienced anything shy of greatness there. The food is always wonderful, the service just as good. Seriously, people need to try this place out especially if you want a quaint restaurant with outstanding food and service. PLUS, you can take your own wine in (with a corkage fee), how wonderful is that?

This was not a good experience. The pecan crusted trout tasted like they fished it out of the Trinity River. The lobster ravioli had a major problem with the pasta used - had the texture of a pot sticker one would get in an asian restaurant. The wine we picked on the menu was ordered and tasted then another wine was brought to our table with the unfortunate awareness that they no longer have the original wine in stock.

I would never recommend this restaurant to anyone ever.
