Food and service was good, portions were ok. The app leaves a bit to be desired and doesn't have a lot of deals!

my daughter & I had a great lunch last Sat food was delicious as always Jacks is our meeting place Kudos to our server Mayu she was very efficient & friendly read more

Overall, I had a good experience here. The place was nice and clean, with great decor and lots of TVs showing the World Cup. The washrooms were also clean. The food was overall pretty good. The birria tacos were really good. The calamari, on the other hand, was pretty mid and could've used a lot more flavour. The drinks were my favourite part though. I could would drink the pink pony drink everyday if I could. Service was also pretty good. The staff were friendly and the food came out pretty fast. I'd definitely come back, especially for the good prices. read more

Used to be my favourite go to restaurant for a night out, but I just find the food has not been the up to par as it used to be! I still love to order their Chicken Tenders in the Stinging Bee sauce, but I don't really have any other suggestions that I would try. Wish they brought back their original Mexican Chicken Bowl! 6/10 recommend! read more

This place was packed even at 9pm on the weekend! We had to park way past Metro. I'd also recommend calling in for a reservation, unless you're fine with the bar section. They offer a great range of food for a bar type of establishment. We ordered their lobster dip, truffle steak and salmon. The lobster dip (21$) came with pita and nacho chips. I enjoyed the dip; however I did not feel like there was enough dip for the amount of pita and nacho that was given. The salmon main course (34$) was okay, nothing special. Our favourite dish of the night was their truffle steak (45$). I believe it usually comes with truffle fries as well, however we substituted it for garden vegetables. The sauce was so rich and flavourful, and we felt like the served us decent piece of steak! Surprisingly, we would choose this steak over the steak at the keg any day! The service was slow, but not non existent. Good place to watch a game with the friends, or a super casual date. It is loud in there, so don't expect to be able to carry a long conversation. read more

Jack Astor's - Salmon main, lobster dip appetizer, truffle steak main - Sports Bars Near Me - North York, Ontario

We were at this location to celebrate our 11th Wedding Anniversary and had a wonderful time! The food was pretty delicious and the service was great. We ordered Beef Barbacoa Tacos for appetizers and New York Steaks for our Main Course. The tacos' beef filling was very flavorful. The steaks were cooked exactly the way we liked, medium rare towards the rarer side. The seasonal vegetables were very fresh. We got a complimentary dessert for celebrating our anniversary at Jack's which was very thoughtful and sweet! The ambience was great and the cocktails we ordered were also lovely. This is one of the best locations we've been to so far and quite impressed by everything. We definitely recommend this restaurant if you'd like to enjoy your special occasion. Thanks to the awesome staff for the lovely evening! read more

Ordered miso glazed salmon bowl. Salmon was over cooked and dry. Rest of the food in the bowl was good but the dry salmon made the rest of the meal unpleasant. I ordered medium and thought that's their interpretation - extremely well done. I told a friend of the terrible salmon next day. And she told me that medium should not be dry. Had I known I would have sent it back. Hope I can get compensation somehow. So disappointed. Service and ambience were great. The bar side were all decked out in festive lights and decoration. One of the best Xmas decor I've seen! read more

We went tonight to the Jack Astors this evening for my birthday dinner at the Shoppes at Don Mills It's a fairly busy location especially for a weekend When we got there it was 30-40 wait however we requested to sit outside and there was no wait at all They had heaters on the patio which helped out We started with the wonton nachos It was a cool fusion take on nachos I had the beef barbacoa tacos with fries They had a nice lil kick to them My wife had the chicken tenders ....the naked and afraid version For my birthday....I got a nice little brownie to celebrate Overall it was nice meal Our server was friendly and nice A great night overall read more

We came here for steak dinner. The meal was fantastic. Service was top notch. Kevin our server was really attentive. Highly recommend!

I guess Jack Astors used to be the place to go, but now they are nothing but a sell out. The food was very mediocre and a small step up above fast food. I really wanted to go to see all the Christmas decor. I wish we would have had a drink and then went anywhere else for lunch. read more

Ordered the $38 New York Steak but I don't like potatoes with my Steak so I asked if I can get rice Instead. The server said no problem getting rice INSTEAD of the potatoes but didn't tell me I would get charged an extra $4 for the substitution. The food was excellent, I just didn't like the underhandedness of this. I had already ordered 3 drafts at $11 so my bill was $86 before the tip. Ended up paying $98 after the tip but did not appreciate the nickel and dimming read more

Came here for dinner with family on a Thursday night. We got the beef nachos for the appetizer, and it was insanely dry. There was only a small amount of melted cheese on top, and even that looked plasticky and dry. For my main, I got the grilled Cajun salmon and I liked the quinoa and salsa, but the salmon was soo salty! I couldn't finish it because it felt like straight up swallowing salt. The rice was also quite dry. The quinoa definitely redeemed the dish. This is my second time at jack astors and I feel like this is just not the place for me. read more

Service was horrific. After receiving our food, never saw our waitress again. We were 2 plus hours and never asked if we would like a beverage refill.. had to flag her down to get our bill so we could pay and leave. Tip was $0. Exactly what the service was worth. read more

Kevin was our server, and he was nice enough, but he sounded like he was new. And while forgetting to refill my water for about 15 minutes, I found it extremely hard to eat nachos without a drink. Meanwhile, my girlfriend found a hair in her salad. The only reason we didn't complain was she didn't want to raise a fuss, and it was slightly busy as we barely saw Kevin at all. How do you not check up on your tables a little more often than that? Other than that, the food was good, but the hair was just super gross. I should have just asked for the manager. read more

I had dinner on May 7 with a friend at Shops at Don Mills location. First off the waitress knew nothing about the new wine offering, Our Story. When she brought me a sample to try, the glass was dirty around the rim. Secondly, we ordered the garlic bread. The four little plates left on the table, one of them was caked in old food. We called over the manager who was shocked at this clearly unwashed dish. Thirdly, my dinner was warm, not hot. I decided not to send it back as I was really hungry. I don't think I will return to this location as my experience was less than stellar. Do better! For the price I pay, I expect great food on clean dishes. read more

I feel like if you are aware that a long weekend is coming up, you should properly staff your restaurant in order to manage the amount of people coming in. We sat for 15-20 mins before even being seen by someone. Luckily someone that wasn't even our server came by to take our order. so props to the staff there but the manager should be managing their store and staff better. read more

Hi and Good Day to the Restaurant and Staff: I was served by an amazing lady named Aida-professional, polite, and a great attitude. She was very good both in serving, and also with respect to her ability to manage the order. I would definitely recommend her to another customer. The restaurant itself has great food and, in terms of the clients-they are great too and, also I had a quiet booth but the service was great from start to finish as I enjoyed a tea and, the other guest had a wrap. Thank You and, Keep up the Great Work!!. read more

Food is great , service good, Ambiance is LOUD /POOR Staff know there is a problem but noise level is controlled by head office Perfect spot for a class action like the Cancer case for second hand SMOKE That case netted big money Hope Jack Aster has deep pockets because this is a perfect case where the employees have NO CONTROL so JACK can PAY BIG WAYNE My legal team will call you next week ONE STAR Great Class Action Case $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ read more

Been here several times. It's a nice looking restaurant to be very honest. The vibe is really nice, it typically feels very charismatic and welcoming. Staff are great, get you what you need; they do their job well. The food is good, it's not Michelin starred but it's good food and tastes great. Absolutely recommend to go with friends it'll be fun read more

Haven't been in a Jack Astor's in years, and this was not by my choice. This location is quite nice, all dark wood and plenty of space. Our server was also very nice and friendly. The food continues to underwhelm though. I had the tacos and they were lacklustre and without much flavour. I should have gone with the chicken tacos instead! read more

The stacked nachos was a great deal. Good amount of food for a fair price maybe the best bang for my buck in Toronto yet. Service es very nice even though we tested them on many things they were firm and kind. It's a nice bar. Not a dive, they have Gary Larsen images all over the walls here (The Farside) I asked if they were originals but the staff didn't know. read more

I used to love going to Jack Astors for a nice cold beer and sharing a plate of nachos amongst friends. However... I started noticing they were using artificial cheese and it made the nachos taste so meh! I feel like it's not the same as it used to be. However the chicken fingers are always a hit! read more

Jack Astor's - a salad and fried chicken - Sports Bars Near Me - North York, Ontario

I want to leave a dining experience at this location today. I received my appetizer but the main course took a long time to receive I thought the appetizer and main course will come together but it did not As we left, we asked for the cheque and we waited and waited after 10minutes so we got up and left... as we preceded out the main door the server rushed out to me and paid at the front door. I found our service today was unacceptable and not worth a tip read more

I don't know why they took all the great choices off the menu. No Fajitas , no ribs, no beef dip. Hamburger now the size of a slider and the prices all went up so much . Not a great restaurant, only hum drum. read more

Typical Jack's, no matter which location you go to. I got the Dirty Bird Chicken Sandwich with fries. The chicken tender fingers were spicy! There was also hot banana peppers and fried jalapenos. If you can't handle spicy, this isn't for you. It's a bit more expensive than most places considering the food (and 3 chicken strips) and the food and service isn't special. Parking is hard to come by, especially at the Shops at Don Mills. Atmosphere was good, lots of TVs with different sports on. Not much wait for a table. Waiter spilled the drinks on the floor and got some on me. The staff didn't seem to care. read more

Oh my god , prices have soared. Cheeseburger size of a slider. No fajitas, no ribs. I have totally lost interest in this place.

Jack Astor's is a very nice place to go with friends as they have lots of variety in their food and drinks. Their garlic bread was amazing and food is always great, however, we got a sangria and there was way less wine than anywhere else which wasn't very worth it. Otherwise, great atmosphere and friendly servers. read more

Awful service, awful starters, and the worst was the store manager with no customer service skills. Do not waste your money there.

Grabbing takeout at jacks is not the same smh. I ordered main dinner size and got kid's meal. Hard dry pasta not enough sauce. I know they have good customer service if I was to complain they would make it right but they ruined my whole dinner priceless read more

Jack Astor's - Asiago bow tie chicken - Sports Bars Near Me - North York, Ontario

I joined a group of friends for dinner at this Shops at Don Mills location and to take in the Leafs game tonight vs the Bruins; a NHL original 6 showdown. Lots of T.V. screens to view the sports action and great ambiance generated from the crowd of supporters and opponents. For dinner I chose the (640 calories) $19.87 Tuna Mango Avocado with seared sesame Ahi tuna, mixed greens, arugula, mango, cucumber, celery, red pepper, honey Dijon ginger dressing, fresh avocado and corn tortilla strips. Flavourfully delicious! My beverage was an IPA beer called Goose Island for $10.30. Our server Bahar provided great service throughout the evening. Final score Leafs 2, Bruins 3 read more

It was such a nice cloudy day so sitting out on the patio that day at Jack Astor's Bar & Grill was actually really nice without too much direct sunlight. I ordered the vegetarian burger which was really good. It was called Hold the Beef and I chose the House Salad as its side. This was my second time having a vegetarian burger. (The last time I had one was at Johnny Bistro's which also was made with a black bean patty.) I especially liked the abundance of goat cheese in it. K got the Miso Sesame Tuna Bowl which I was really impressed about as well. Jack Astor's seems to have improved their game! The ingredients in the bowl were so fresh and the seared tuna was so perfectly done. I liked the crispness of the snow peas and the slight sweetness of the miso sesame sauce. The service here was really good too. Our server made sure we were content during the whole meal. read more

Pad Thai had zero seasoning. I had to wait a long time to ask for salt. I even gave up waiting and went inside, but found nobody. my date had wings which tasted good but the 2 carrot sticks it came with were bendy and dry, with that white dried out look that comes from from sitting out for too long. So lame. won't be back. read more

I've been to Jack Astors a couple of times this year but this was the best visit so far. I've tried the stack'd poutine which was pretty good. Then someone recommended the bow tie chicken pasta which I thought was great. But the chicken fingers that I got today was the best thing I've ordered at Jack's to date. I was surprised how tender the fingers were and it definitely shows they aren't frozen. The toffee Chipotle sauce is an interesting combination and it does work. But with a side of parmesan truffle fries, it doesn't get better than this for a bar night social. 4 stars due to the rainbow bellini being a little underwhelming. It wasn't as colorful as their blue raspberry lemonade but it's still a refreshing cocktail. Also this specific location has a great atmosphere, it's spacious and the service is speedy enough. Overall, a well established chain to go out with friends to. read more

I always have a great time when I come here. Is usually it's a Saturday or Sunday for lunch. It's not too busy surprisingly at this time. Service is friendly and quick. Food tastes great and freshly made. They make the wings and toss it for you at the table. It's a great place for kids. The kids menu has good options and the food is always fresh and good portions. Love the take home freshly baked chocolate chip cookie. Will be back again. read more

Good food, better service. Highly recommend said as your waiter. I feel that many establishments could learn from this place on how to effectively run a restaurant and make your customers feel appreciated read more

The portions were ridiculously small. I expected more food on the plate. Lucky my kids couldn't finish their meals and we were able to fill up on their leftovers. I order fish & chips, fish was delicious, but the portion was disappointing. A tiny piece of fish, then they just give you more fries and slaw. We also ordered the classic burger, it was meh! Just felt like we weren't getting the value for our meal. The waitress had to apologize for the small portions. I will think twice about coming back. read more

Manager was so wack wouldn't accept our id from the states if we didn't have our passports. He was mean too smh. Server was ok at least tried to be nice . Seafood dip was good doe. It was loud asf could barely hear anything. anyways I'd prob go again just take my passport ig read more

I feel almost awkward award Jack's a really good review as I had relatively little positive things to say about the chain for a few years. But ultimately, things can change, and you just have to be honest and give credit to where it's due. As I mentioned in my review of one of their locations in Oakville, they've clearly stepped up their game in more recent history. We had out-of-town guests who also had kids with them. As much as I would've liked to find a more unique place to eat when in the city, you just have to be practical when there are 5 kids between the ages of 3 and 10. Fortunately, I knew that aside from being practical, we'd all still find something we'd enjoy. They really do a terrific job of serving fresh food. They don't even take shortcuts on the kids' dishes as things like chicken fingers are made in-house. I'm falling in love with their tuna sandwich which is made from a perfectly seared tuna steak and a very generous serving of avocado. My wife got their wings, which were great and tossed right at the table. My friends had never been before and loved the Cobb salad and soup, as well as the fact that their kids really enjoyed their meal. They had a great impression overall. There was even a magician who went around to all the tables that had kids. If you don't have kids, this may understandably sound cheesy or unnecessary; but if you're in my shoes, it was great to see the kids entertained and thrilled at all the tricks - for free no less. I felt that the waitresses sexed-up image was a bit OTT compared to other locations I've been to, and the fact that they're still clearly trying to appeal to families as well. In fact, most servers in other bars in the city (read: not family friendly) don't seem the feel the need to put out the vibe to the extent that they do here. With that said, our server was very friendly and geared her approach appropriately for our table. Jacks is on a role, and the expression "Jack of all trades..." fits as there's something here for everyone, which they pull it off quite well. read more

Love this location, especially summer time when you get to dine on the patio. Service and staff were average during this visit. Just got some dessert to eat today--these deep fried cheesecake spring rolls with strawberry and caramel dipping sauces--that tasted delicious. I tried the To-Tea-To drink jacked up which was kind of disgusting (I was hoping for it to taste more like a mojito but it didn't). Anyways, although it wasn't the best visit I've had at this location, I love the area and service is usually good so I'll come back. read more
