They partner with Rappahannock Oyster Company in Virginia to offer their own proprietary oysters, which says a lot about their commitment to quality. This was the third location I've visited in their group, and this one is conveniently located near Union Station Denver in downtown Denver. It's a great stop if you're in the area. I follow them on social media and they occasionally run some really good specials. One thing I like is that they change their menus frequently, so it feels like you can try something different every time you visit. On this trip I had the Salmon Kushiyaki -- teriyaki, crispy skin, and broccolini gomae -- and it was excellent. The staff was friendly, service was smooth, and they also have a solid beer selection. Overall, a dependable seafood spot with quality ingredients and a menu that keeps things interesting.

Absolutely Exceptional…read more Jack's on Pearl exceeded every expectation. As Texas transplants, we've enjoyed some incredible steakhouses over the years and have traveled extensively, but this was truly one of the best dining experiences we've had. We even drove up from Colorado Springs for our 18th wedding anniversary, and it was worth every mile. We started with the wedge salad, which was fresh, crisp, and packed with flavor--easily one of the best wedge salads we've ever had. The warm bread service was incredible and paired perfectly with the house-made spreads. The mac and cheese was rich, creamy, and absolutely unforgettable. The highlight of the evening was the Wagyu steak topped with cheesy potato croquettes. It was cooked to perfection and so tender it practically melted in your mouth. Every bite was packed with incredible flavor and was one of those dishes you continue talking about long after the meal is over. What impressed us most was that every single item we ordered was exceptional. The quality of the ingredients, attention to detail, presentation, atmosphere, and service were all top-notch. After reading some of the reviews beforehand, we weren't sure what to expect. In our experience, this restaurant is incredibly underrated. Our meal, service, and overall experience were outstanding from start to finish. If you're looking for a special dinner, anniversary celebration, or simply one of the best meals you'll have in Colorado, Jack's on Pearl is absolutely worth the visit. We will definitely be back and will be recommending it to friends and family. Thank you to the entire team for making our 18th anniversary so memorable. -- Andrea & Sergio

Omg. We LOVED Jacks! We got there early and were happy to…read moreget 2 seats at the bar. This seems to be a popular spot, so I recommend a reservation or early arrival. We ordered the salmon Sashimi to start (epic), the Hipster Wedge salad, (yummmm) and the filet Champion style. THAT was one of the best steaks we have ever eaten. Incredible. The service was outstanding, the lighting/ ambiance were perfect. Pearl Street in Denver is a cool little district to walk around when the weather is nice too. Loved the area! We will be back!

I came in and headed straight to the bar, where I was helped by the most amazing bartender, Katie…read more She was absolutely phenomenal! Her service was outstanding, and she made the whole experience even better with her friendly and attentive attitude. Every time I visit, this place is busy, which is always a great sign. The food was so delicious! My go-to order is the two pounds of shrimp with a side of sweet potato fries, and it never disappoints. I always leave happy and can't wait for my next visit.

This is the best crawfish location I have tried in Colorado!…read more Love the ambiance and all the themed decor. It is perfect for what we were wanting. It was just two of us but it looks like they can accommodate large groups. Plenty of parking in a large shared lot with H Mart. We didn't have any reservations an they were able to take us right away around noon on a Sunday. The food came out pretty quickly and our server was wonderful. The quality and price of the food were unmatched. Everything tasted fresh and was cooked well, the price was reasonable. The only reason I took a star away was because the AC was on way too high! Our food got cold in less than 8-10 minutes because of how cold it was. Made the last bites kind of gross. Definitely recommend turning down the AC. Overall 4/5 stars!

My favorite restaurant! Made a reservation on Open Table and our hostess seated us immediately at…read morethe booth we requested. Our server, Malik, was so professional, courteous, engaging, gave us great suggestions and our meal experience was even better with him as our server! We ordered the Happy Hour cocktails of lemon drop martinis and a regular martini. Ordered a half-dozen of the Pearl oysters and they were so yummy, we ordered another half-dozen. Well-presented and delicious! We then ordered the Nantucket Risotto (only been on the menu for 2 weeks), the Blue Island Diver's Platter (ask for the octopus), a Happy Hour Crispy Slider and Fish Taco. We combined this with a glass of white wine and red wine. The meal was absolutely fabulous and we then finished this spectacular meal with sharing a key lime pie. Once again, Malik made this meal even better with his genuine smile, attentiveness and efficiency. Make sure you sign up for their Loyalty Rewards program and they offer a great inexpensive weekday 3-course Power Lunch.

Went in on Saturday night for the late night oyster deal…read more The service has been hit or miss. Sometimes it's good other times absolutely terrible. I will say for the oyster deal it has been good, but sometimes the oysters aren't cleaned well. Again a hit and miss. The ambiance is nice and soothing, very ocean blue. We have also tried some sides and other entrees. The shrimp entree was good but lacked some salt. The burger was amazing with the bacon jam and always have the best shoestring fries. I also got an order of the crispy rice that has a salmon and a tuna. The salmon was way too sweet and had a fishy aftertaste that I disliked. The truffle tuna was definitely the better one of the two. However, the rice itself was absolutely mushy and not necessarily crispy. It also didn't have the best flavor. Desserts tried were the olive oil orange cake and the brownie. both are OK and nice and sweet, but not something I would spend money on Overall, truly think this place is a hit and miss. Just depends on the night.

20/10 experience!…read more This is by far my favorite seafood boil spot in Denver... I've been to at least five others. The spice level was just right, the seafood was fresh and plump- none of that "rinky-dink why am I paying for this" stuff! The service was great, and it's a cute spot right off of Colfax. Don't let the construction deter you!

Soooo fun and soooo tasty! The place is packed for a good reason so make sure you make that…read morereservation! The wait would have been worth it though. Everything tasted so good and there was a good chunk of leftovers so you definitely get your money's worth. The service was also attentive despite how busy they were on that Friday night. The garlic is definitely strong though so be ready for that!

Upon entry we were seated quickly and had our drink orders taken. Taylor was our server and let me tell you; nicest server I've ever seen! Frequent refills, quick service, and in general came off as a good person. The food was BEYOND amazing, I can't reiterate enough how hood it all looked and tasted. We ordered their shrimp and crawfish fondeaux and garlic bread for the table, which was incredible, possibly the best garlic bread and fondeaux I've ever had! Their Caesar salad was good, but what really stood out was the blackened catfish. I love catfish, and this catfish was perfectly grilled and seasoned. The rice and beans on the side were great as well, the beans being slightly smokey and spicy. I really, really cannot recommend this place enough! Pappadeaux has extraordinarily outdone its seafood competitors, and if you are also a seafood lover, there's nowhere better to visit.

The pasta was okay, it was lacking flavor. I would not order again. Or recommend it to be honest. The bad- we had a large party and had a reservation for 16 people. At the time we made the reservation we were told that they would have to seat us between two different tables but they would be together which was fine. Half of our party didn't get their drink order taken. I informed our waitress who said she would take it and that she was aware we were together but she wasn't their waitress. By the time we got our food, the other half of our party hadn't even had their appetizers ordered. We waited 45min after we got our food for them to even get theirs. We spoke to the manager because no one was serving them, our waitress would help when she could but they weren't her table. The woman manager was not wanting to hear it. The other table also complained but my friend whose event it was asked to speak to her as she was upset on behalf of her party, the woman manager was not personable and wouldn't discuss what she could do to make it right since my friend wasn't at the other table. This was my first experience at this restaurant and the manager and pasta turned me off. I don't think I would made the 45 min drive to this restaurant again.

I was visiting The area and staying at a hotel in the neighborhood, and i thought I would give this…read moreplace a try. I guess I was expecting a bit more than what I got. I had requested a garlic flavoring with a mild touch. I have to say I was very disappointed to get scallops with no flavor enhancements, say with like some old bay. The sauce was very bland and even the garlic butter had no flavor at all. Everything is sold by the pound with a very limited menu. I got the scallops with a side of 3 red potatoes with no flavorings. As if this was not already a sub par meal, the waitstaff were extremely slow and seemed to be in no rush to wait on me. $45.00 including tip ( I'm not a bad sport) For a lack luster attempt at Cajun cuisine. I would not recommend this restaurant.

Ok... so maybe as a Houstonian I have been deprived of good crawfish. I miss eating this year…read moreround! But this was legit. We only came here because Asian Cajun didn't have live crawfish. We got XXX garlic cajun butter and it was amazing. It was juicy (bc suck the head) and flavorful. I always bring my own spice to dip in and we kept saying how good it was. We will return... probably sooner than later. We also got some curly fries and those were great too. Happy they have IPAs! Karen was our server and was absolutely amazing. She helped guide us on our spice level and took such great care of us.

So we drive past this place when we go down the street to get pizza regularly. Every time we see it…read morewe say oh my gosh we need to try that place and we never do. We changed that yesterday. We were trying to think of a new place to go try and the crab House popped into our thoughts. And we're so glad we went! The server who I can only imagine is probably the owner, man she is a hustler! This woman runs the whole place without leaving a single person unattended. We came in after lunch and before dinner so it was a little quiet in there when we came, but you could tell this is just how she does things. The food was fresh. It wasn't salty which we kind of expected. The prices were very reasonable and we're glad we don't have to go all the way to Denver to get this type of food anymore. Coming from Illinois we had a quite a few of these types of places near where we lived, but we don't have a lot of Cajun seafood here in Colorado. I was very happy to find something that wasn't terribly far from home, was clean, and the food was delicious! If I can give any critique, I wish the shrimp was just a little fresher. I'm guessing it was frozen however nothing was past its prime and we ate every bite!

I really want to like this place. We drove from Parker to try it out. It just like Juicy Seafood,…read moreexcept they put in a bowl rather eating out of a bag. Which I like more. The open eating area was very comfortable. The food. I found it pretty bland. We didn't get any salt and pepper for our soup, so we had to deal with it being tasteless. I got the Crab House basket. I ended up dipping most of my food into my wife's meal. She got the C plate. Her snow crab looked like it suffered from an eating disorder, so thin. Other than that, she enjoyed the meal. Service. This place was a "Fire and Forget" type. She was nice but once she dropped off the orders then you never saw here again, until the check. The parking was filled and we thought this place was completely full. The other restaurants were filling it up, as you can see from the photo. Overall, I would put this on the skip list.
