    This was my second visit to this location…read more As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by staff members. They let me check out the place before being seated. The bar area is self-seating.I chose to sit in the bar area...the only remaining big table with high chairs/table...it was packed! The happy hour is pretty awesome here. They have daily happy hour from 4-6 pm, which is pretty awesome, starting early and ending late. There is also a power hour from 3-6, where everything on the happy hour menu is $5, which is a little early!! The menu includes regular bar food and a variety of drinks (as shown in the picture). We ordered the following: -Let that "man"go - in general it's an iced drink, so I'd avoid. -Spicy pina marg - another iced drink. It was ok. -I'm Ron Burgundy (2x)- this had a nice strong coffee flavor, doesn't come with ice; I would highly recommend it...they made it so good!!! -Maker's mini nachos - There proportion of chips to toppings was off there wasn't enough toppings and too many chips, but there was a lot of cheese. -Calamari was a good portion, and tasty -Chicken tenders - they were delicious and moist There are so many items to choose from on the power hour/happy hour menu. I would definitely recommend lil B and the wings. There was live music, which was just way too loud for such a small space. We would have been okay with all the music. There is plenty of parking available in nearby garages, I believe free after 5pm. There is also timed/paid parallel parking. Would I return? definitely!

    Went here for midday lunch and was pleasantly surprised! Despite being a bit disappointed in the…read morebrunch menu having limited lunch options, we opted for the brunch nachos to start. They were HUGE and generously topped with lots of goodies! We planned on ordering entrees after but were too full for anything else! Our server was very attentive and helpful, despite our limited ordering. I will return and am giving this 3 stars just because of my limited experience, but I will be back!

All wooden tables with a combination of high tops and regular 4-person tables, plus a few luxurious looking booths on one side. Bar towards the back with multiple TV with sports channels playing. There is a whiskey tasting room, a game room, and another standing room only bar. We were just there on a Friday night and there was a solo live performance. Not too loud as the place is large enough to absorb the sound, and I was still able to carry a conversation. Great vibes! Food (4 ) Regular bar menu items. Good selection of local beers. Everything is delicious, portion on the small side - We had the Jambalaya and Steak Frites; an old fashioned and a couple beers. Service (4 ) The place was very busy, we don't see our waitstaff often but he's friendly, took our orders and everything came fine. We did ask for the water.

The young seater proceeds to seat us in a section with 9 empty tables, completely removed from the rest of the restaurant. Weird choice on her part. Husband can see the rest of restaurant/tvs in his view. I can see a wall column and windows. ‍ Server was super laid back. Ordered the Open Table burger with fries and the French onion burger with sweet potato fries as well as a take out order. Server opted to put the take out order in once our food came. Burgers came out quickly. They were cooked just as requested. Food was ok.. nothing special Server kind of disappeared so drink refills were hard to come by. I think because we were so far away from all of his other tables it made it difficult for him to get back to us. Manager (?) came by and offered to refill drinks and bring a box. Take out order came out right on time. No dessert was offered or suggested. Would we come back? Probably not but we gave it a try.

The one blip was when we first entered, the young-ish man at the host desk looked at us with a "What are you doing here?" grimace. I was stunned since the hosts are usually very happy to see patrons come in. Beyond that, though, we had a lovely time. Our server was quite friendly and got hubs customized Cuban order just right. I had the killer tomato basil soup and tasty grilled cheese. I also got an order to go of the Buffalo Chicken wrap. It was yummy the next day for lunch. We hadn't been to NYAJ's in years. It had somehow fallen off our dining radar. We'll be back more often after our recent terrific dinner.

I meet some old friends at this restaurant fairly often and we are always well taken care of. We often have Caesar as our waiter and he has been there a long time, and always does a great job. He is polite, friendly, professional and attentive. The food is good. I don't know if I would say there is anything fantastic about it, but I have never had a bad meal there. I've had the chicken parm, the Cuban sandwich, burgers, and salads and everything had been tasty and freshly prepared. I love a good Cuban sandwich and NYAJ's is a good one, and they are one of the few restaurants with a Waldorf salad on the menu, so I have ordered that several times. My only critique of that would be, I wish it had the candied pecans that are listed as an ingredient on the menu, but the last 3 times I have had that salad, they have been missing. I also love the French onion soup there, as well as many of the appetizers. You really do not have to worry about getting a bad meal at Not Your Average Joe's, it's very reliable.

On this occasion, we returned specifically for the calamari--which is truly outstanding--and decided to explore a few additional menu items. We ordered the California rolls, goat cheese salad, and crab and corn chowder, and each dish was phenomenal. The quality, flavor, and presentation across the board were impressive. Despite being a popular and often busy restaurant, the service remains efficient and welcoming. The staff is consistently courteous and accommodating, and we were seated promptly without issue. Their ability to maintain a high level of hospitality, even during peak times, speaks well to their overall operation. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance. There is a comfortable, family-friendly environment inside, complete with menu options for children, while the outdoor seating area offers a more vibrant, metropolitan feel--ideal for small groups or those looking to enjoy a lively setting. From a value standpoint, the pricing is reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and the overall experience. Additionally, the location adds to its appeal, offering a pleasant setting that is perfect for an after-dinner walk with family or friends. Overall, Jackson's continues to deliver a well-rounded and highly enjoyable dining experience. It is a place I would confidently recommend and one we will certainly continue to visit.

    My wife and I have been going to Kalypso's since 2013. We both enjoy Greek and Mediterranean food,…read moreand eating outside on the patio with a view of Lake Anne adds to the ambiance. Recently both the quality of the food and the service has deteriorated. When we had dinner there in early April I had Spanakopita and Grilled Shrimp, while my wife had Grilled Bronzini. While my dinner was satisfactory the Bronzini was bland and watery. This was probably due to a grill that wasn't hot enough, and the fish was steamed rather than grilled. With Bronzini high heat is essential to obtain a smoky flavor with a crisp skin. Also, the number of waiters and servers was insufficient, and we had to wait a long time to place our order, receive our food and get the check at the end of our meal. We had dinner there again this weekend and I again had Spanakopita along with a Caesar Salad with Grilled Chicken, and my wife again had the Bronzini and Beignet for desert. This time the Bronzini was over cooked and the skin was charred. She should have sent it back to the kitchen, but after waiting over 45 minutes to get our food we were both rather hungry. Beignet is a deep-fried pastry of French origin that is most frequently associated with New Orleans Creole cuisine. It is made from yeast-leavened dough and deep-fried. When properly prepared it is crisp on the outside and airy on the inside and is covered with powdered sugar and served hot. My wife has had Beignet many times at Kalypso's and thoroughly enjoyed it. This time it was awful lumps of fried dough covered with sugar. And again the waiters and servers were significantly understaffed. We had to wait for 30 minutes to place our orders, and while our waiter was polite and helpful this was unacceptable. While I understand a long wait at a busy restaurant with a large number of patrons this wasn't the case. As we were driving home from dinner we decided this would be the last time we would eat at Kalypso's. This is unfortunate, because in the past it was a very nice place for casual dining.
