Frankie H.

Good restaurant. Food is so good and good options, Mexican food, BBQ, burgers, seafood, Italian and more. I loved that pretty and very tasteful wild flower drink. Very good flour and corn chips on spinach dip. Food is flavored and taste good. Our server was very nice, she did take a while before she came to take our order. They have tvs at the bar and everything is clean and set up well.

Attractive wall in cute place.

Friendly & patient service. Cute decor inside . I just had 2 sides toast and avo. Hubs pancakes ok. Hashbrowns ok.

Massive salad

Cactus Jacks was on the books for dinner - party of seven. We were sat quickly in a massive booth with lots of space. We quickly realized that it was impossible to have a conversation with everyone when paired against the loud music and 6-7 feet distance between us all. Bummer. Our waitress was friendly and checked on us often. She brought chips to the table but even after we asked for another set of chips and salsa for the other half of the table, it was still really challenging to get a chip due to the distance. This table was massive... and inconvenient. It felt a bit ridiculous. Several of us ordered soup and salad, which was easy as we left immediately to the salad bar in the far back corner. The line here backs up quickly as you can only access the salad bar from one side. That aside, I did appreciate the wide selection of veggies, the crumbled bacon and cheese options at the end. I also grabbed a dinner roll, golden and perfectly sized. My chicken and sausage gumbo arrived a little later but was lukewarm at best. Two bowls arrived this way and we asked to have them warmed up. They took quite a while to return. Our waitress checked on them and shared her apologies. We had them rerouted as to go orders as the wait had already been a good 15 minutes. No idea how these tasted. The salad I created was amazing though. We may return if time permits, but thus far, Cactus Jacks has several areas for improvements. And if we do return, it will be a smaller party for sure, so that we can chat and connect over the food and drink.

This place is huge inside. They have an indoor/outdoor area with a playground for kids, live band, large tv screens, 2 bars. There is a designated kid area if you are dining with kids. I'm not really sure how I feel about this. The customer service is good as well. They can get a little busy at times so be patient. The food is really good. We have been 4xs and have not been disappointed. Definitely will recommend.

The food was okay, the service quick, and the ambiance very normal--music in the background, conversations, and games on TV. The best thing here was definitely the wings and the pizza. The hot chicken sandwich, I think, and the Philly cheesesteak didn't really have a lot of flavor, but they're definitely big. Overall, it's a great place to visit if you're nearby. It's not ghetto like some other restaurant/bars--respectfully.

Smoked Chicken Enchiladas

I ordered the Smoked Chicken Enchiladas. They were just okay. They were drowning in cheese which made it hard to taste anything else. I'll stick with the smoked chicken quesadillas next time or try the new BBQ.

This is my first drink and food order

Zero stars. Cactus Jack's in Mont Belvieu absolutely embarrassed themselves tonight. I had 2 tall Dos Equis and 1 Patron shot -- sitting quietly, minding my business, not loud, not acting drunk. Out of nowhere I was told I "had to order food" before another drink. Stupid rule, but whatever -- I ordered and PAID for the food. Then shift change comes in. I order a vodka Red Bull, take THREE sips, and the new server snatches it away because they overheard me on a private phone call joking that I was "drunk." Not based on my behavior, not on anything real -- just eavesdropping and overreacting. I wasn't slurring, stumbling, or causing a single problem. But they still took the drink away AND charged me for it. This staff is untrained, unprofessional, and way too sensitive to be serving alcohol. If this is how they treat a loyal, respectful customer, I can only imagine how they treat everyone else. Don't waste your time or money here. This place is a joke And if they think I'm lying then they can post the security footage of me at the bar. I've ate and drank here so many times. This place is a joke after my experience tonight.

Slow burn cocktail

I stopped by here on my way home from New Orleans. The food was good. We got the cracklin deviled eggs for an appetizer. For the entree, i just got the tortilla soup and a salad. The salad bar is your average salad bar, nothing extravagant but still had plenty of fresh options to choose from. I did enjoy the cheese blocks at the end that you can get fresh cheese slices from. The tortilla soup was good, however, i prefer my soup with more broth. The service was great. Everyone was very friendly. The decor was nice as well. I would definitely go back when near and would recommend this place to anyone close by

Pepperoni pizza

Cactus Jacks was such a breath of fresh air from your typical country western bbq vibe restaurant...ambiance was rustic chic, fun, lively! You could be there for ladies night, special occasion, or just a regular. It had a really fun vibe! Live music playing...Altuve and the Astros on the big screen! JJ was our waitress and she was amazing...super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, had great suggestions & was super fun! We started out with some blackberry mojitos, so refreshing and yummy! We did a combination of apps and pizza. Chips and queso were good, wings were tasty...had the hot which weren't too hot but good and jalapeño cherry bbq (Dr Pepper base)...kinda sweet not really my vibe but definitely get why they are popular. I feel like you have to try them just for the flavor name alone. Quesadillas were very good, but if you don't like the smoky taste of chicken you won't like them. Mozzarella sticks were good, served with ranch and marinara...very tasty! Pizza was great, some burnt edges made it so so good! Tortilla soup was okay, not my vibe...super smoky (again if you aren't into it you may not appreciate the soup). It was served hot with avacado. We ended with a slice of cheesecake...shared between two, was very good, creamy, strawberry sauce, strawberries, and whipped cream. Definitely save room for dessert! Overall, fun experience for a night out with the girls! Great food and drinks...got to see the Astros & listen to live music at the same time. Music was awesome! We will definitely be back to try some more yummy dishes and will definitely be asking for JJ!
