You’ll find the food at Jake’s is something very special with dishes you will not find anywhere else. The Crab Sauté is a family favorite and has blown away many a guest that we’ve brought from out of town. I had the bouillabaisse last night and it too was amazing. The local Steelhead has several award winning variations. The appetizers are also wonderful. The drinks are special too. Go—you won’t be disappointed!!

Fantastic service as usual. We have been here a few times and love the food and atmosphere. This time we hosted our company holiday party in the private dining room which provided privacy but we could still hear the live jazz music outside. I cannot express enough the great service we receive every time we go and how this place is like a hidden family owned gem. We will definitely return soon!
