    This is how we received our food. I had to purchase the side against the tray so the food wouldn't slide in each other.

    How you serve the food! If you look at our review, our plates are warped! Food was sliding in each other! Worst we've ever had served from anywhere. Pitiful.

    Cookie Dough Ice Cream Milkshake
    Linda R.

    A friend of ours suggested we meet at Jacks for milkshakes. The last time I visited a Jacks restaurant was at the Eastwood Mall location when I was a little kid with my mom. I had never been to the Homewood location, so I thought this might be a nostalgic trip down memory lane. I was happily surprised that they offer old-fashioned milkshakes that are actually hand-dipped, hand-mixed and made with actual ice cream. The flavor I chose was a regular Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough milk shake which was the perfect size for me and delicious. The other flavors they offer are Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry, Cookies & Cream, Moose Tracks and Smokey Mountain Fudge.

    3 piece chicken tenders and fries

    I don't normally come to Jack's, but this Jack's in Homewood is pretty decent. The inside is nice and actually gives off a more cabin like feel which seems more inviting than your standard fast food restaurant. I picked up my order to go of chicken fingers and fries. My food was cold by the time I had a chance to eat it, but 30 seconds in the microwave solved it! No soggy fries so I think I saved them in time. The chicken was just okay, not the biggest chicken tenders but not the worst either. The cashier was nice but I was not given ketchup, mustard, nor my receipt so little things like that should have gone smoother in my opinion.

    I had to change my review to one star because I came here during breakfast this morning and there was a long line in the drive-through. So I opted to go inside thinking that'll be quicker. Boy was I wrong. I looked around and there was a wait in the inside as well. I approached the counter and the cashier turned around and said I'll be right with you. I stood at the counter for about five minutes looking around trying to figure out what was going on. A line began to form behind me. The cashier continued to get orders and put them on trays without acknowledging any of us as the line began to grow longer and longer. taking anyone else's order. Finally after about five minutes I asked her, excuse me are you taking orders?? Finally she said "may I take your order"?, but didn't seem to happy to be doing so. I ordered a chicken biscuit. Just one chicken biscuit that's it! I waited 10 minutes for me to get that one chicken biscuit. As I waited l, starting talking with the other customers. One was telling me how she observed the drive-thru moving quicker than the inside. Another was saying how this was store # 1 and how they should be an example for other stores.... The only good thing is, that the biscuit was hot....but other than that the wait time was ridiculous! Jack's breakfast is good, but the customer service isn't. If you're looking for a place to grab a quick bite for breakfast, I definitely wouldn't recommend this place.

    If slow service and being treated like an inconvenience is your thing, you've come to the right place.

    Food first, thoughts after... I am so glad we stumbled upon…read morethis place. Absolutely delicious. I am not much of a burger person but I love burgers made like this. Fresh, handmade and not overly greasy. The sauce was not too overwhelming and paired well. This was easy to digest and honestly I could have sat there and ate two. I really wish they had fries to pair with it. Chips only. For 3 sandwiches and 2 small drinks, our total was $25.08 with $1 tip. Fast service! My burger was made before I paid with the person at the counter as she was trying to get a togo order together. Parking is overall fairly easy. This is a good solid choice for lunch/ dinner. Restaurant was clean and spacious. The layout of the tables were interesting but overall I liked the style.

We then looked for another place and finally found this place. Sometimes things just work out for what's best. The smell of good burgers were smelt before we opened the door. The smell matched the flavor and taste of each bite. My daughter and I both ordered the cheese but I ordered the slaw dog as well for later. We added the sweet tea and everything was pleasing to the tastebuds. The cooks and checkout clerks were friendly held welcoming conversations. When over this way I plan on returning. Again, everything was really good.

Located across from Planet Fitness and beside Davenport's Pizza, they share a fun common area with Taco Mama and Paneras. There's plenty of tables outside with artificial tuff and kids toys for entertainment. There's also comfortable indoor seating if you want to keep away from the outside heat or cold. The tables are bare so you have to head to the cleanup kiosk by the entrance to get your napkins, cutlery, cups of ketchup and packets of mustard. In another corner is a large upright cooler that houses the bottled water and canned drinks. Finally there's a large counter to place and pick up your order with a large viewable kitchen directly behind. The Standard is owned by a Korean couple, Young Shin and Kookie Kim. This the second Standard with the first being in the Pizitz Food Hall downtown across from the McWane Center. They make their beef fresh from scratch every morning and want to be "honest" with their food. Being newly open, the dining room is immaculate. There are not many decorations on the walls as two walls of their dining room are clear glass which makes the dining room look much bigger and brighter. Their menu is the definition of simplicity. 3 categories: Under Burger & Sandwiches they have: Cheeseburger, Black Bean Veggie Burger, Double Bacon Cheeseburger, Patty Melt, Fried Bologna, Pilly Cheesesteak & Chicken sandwich. Under Hot Dogs: Birmingham Dog, Grilled Cheese & Plain Dog. Under Add-Ons: Fried Egg, Bacon, Smashed Avocado, Pickled Jalapenos, Grilled Onions, Sauerkraut, etc. Paul and Linh both got a Cheeseburger. It looks Yuge and must've been good because they both finished it. Matthew got the Patty melt. It was also big with 2 burger patties mashed together between 2 buttered slices of bread, pimento cheese and onions. Tammy tried the Philly cheesesteak. The slices of meat were smoothered with white american cheese, grilled onions and drizzled with garlic aoli. It was pretty good. I tried their Chicken sandwich. My piece of chicken was Yuge! It was nicely breaded and fried. It's nice when the chicken is larger than the buns which were buttered and lightly toasted. With the mayo and pickles, it was one of the better chicken sandwiches I've eaten. Finally we all shared a large order of their tater tots. I love tater tots and these were hot out of the fryer Yom Yom good! A prickly afterthought was the fact they add a 3.5% non-cash fee. So if you're paying with anything other than cash, you will be billed an additional 3.5%. So for my total of $34.50, my fee was $1.21. No big deal. So if you're planning a date night, stop by The Standard for a quick bite then walk ove to the AMC for a nice movie. Welcome to Vestavia, Standard.
