    Wow, the food that we ordered was excellent. We had hope that you still had a brunch buffet.
    Jackson's Bistro Bar & SushiResponded today
    Thank you for the 5 Stars! We moved away from the buffet almost two years ago. Pricing would have been drastically changed along with selections, and people have moved from wanting buffets. We are so glad you enjoyed the new brunch menu.

    We had dinner before a Lightning game and sat outside on the patio. It was a little loud, but the view of the harbor can’t be beat. Our server was prompt, pleasant, and efficient. The menu had changed since our last visit, and my favorite dish was no longer available. I consoled myself with a blackened grouper sandwich which was as good as any I’ve had.

    Thanks for visiting us, Steven! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the view and found our service efficient. We're sorry to hear that your favorite dish was no longer available. We appreciate your feedback and will certainly consider it as we continually strive to improve our menu offerings. We look forward to welcoming you back to Jackson's Bistro Bar & Sushi for another pre-game dinner or any time you choose to dine with us.

    The tile fish was prepared perfectly, and was a healthy portion for such a moderate price. Our server was outstanding.

    We were a party of seven who was able to get a table last minute which was nice. Our server Florida was professional and attentive to our needs. Apps were ordered and then I asked that our dinner order not come out right after the apps but unfortunately they did. That is a pet peeve of mine. I like to have apps wait 15-20 mins then place our dinner order. It was the end of the evening our reservation was for 7:45 so I am sure the kitchen was trying to finish up for the night. It was a Tuesday evening. The food was fresh hot and plentiful. Everyone enjoyed their meal immensely. We shall return.
