Had the 1/4 chicken and ribs dinner and the BBQ pulled pork quesadilla. Ribs and chicken were fall off the bone and the sides (coleslaw and fries) were fresh and delicious. BBQ pulled pork quesadilla was cooked perfectly and sides (beans and vegetables) were also excellent. read more

This looked like a nice place to get something to eat while we were vacationing in the area. I ordered the Captain's special which consisted on halibut fish n chips, onion rings, fried scallops and shrimp along with some baked beans. It was a decent sized platter of food with everything tasting real good. The only complaint Is the onion rings were a slight bit oily. read more

Jack's Restaurant - Captain's special - Fish & Chips Near Me - Norwood, Ontario

Friendly local restaurant on the edge of Norwood. Stopped in for a quick bite while traveling East to relatives. Had the family with me and we all had something different to eat. Garlic shrimp dinner, seafood chowder, and I had the 1/4 chicken dinner. All we had was good. Service was fast and friendly. I would recommend when in Norwood. read more

Disgusting to the extreme. I order the lamb Gyros and it was absolutely the worst food I have been served, and I'm 65. Firstly a Gyros is a blend of ground meats typically beef and lamb and it is compressed and cooked as a large cylinder of meat over a flame or element and once done is thinly sliced and served in a pita with Taziki and veggies. This one was chunks and strips of lamb which was almost all grizzle and fat, very, very little meat, and was totally inedible other than the pita, taziki and veggie - which was irrelevant at this point. Unfortunately I was 20 minutes away when I opened and attempted to eat it and due to a time constraint I couldn't return it and threw almost all of it out since no real meat could be found. I have eaten at Jacks in Lakefield and not been disappointed but this one in Norwood served me an inedible meal that was absolutely disgusting that no self respecting restaurant would serve. I am certain they were aware of the poor quality but put it out there anyways. Shame on them. I go back and forth from Ottawa often and finally decided to try it and I can say I was thoroughly disgusted and disappointed by what that gave me. I believe that any restaurant that allows food like that to be served is either on the decline or has lost any desire to maintain quality hoping to snag unsuspecting passerby's. In either case it is a failing scenario. Shame on you for allowing that meal to leave your kitchen and by handed to a customer. I would like the owner to respond and try to tell me why this was served. This really left a bad taste in my mouth - literally. P.S. The fries were not very good - tasted like old oil was used. read more

Service is quick and friendly most of the time. Food is ok, rather overpriced for the quality that you get. Went for a meal with my family, mine was still frozen in the centre. By the time they got mine reheated (not even a new meal) my family was finished eating. I decided to not eat and we asked for the bill.... my meal was still charged even though I sent it back for not being cooked and told them my family was finished eating so not bother with mine anymore. They finally removed the charge after arguing with us. We have been back a few times, it's about all there is in Norwood. read more

Fish and chips very good and the rice pudding again very very nice. The service is excellent as well as the location. read more

As you leave, what I have grown up to know as, civilization your familiar food options (and those with decent Yelp reviews) become few and far between. You find yourself in this Twilight Zone of unfamiliar territory known as - real life. A real life that requires you do what people have been doing for hundreds of years... ask a real local person "where around here is good to eat!" I found myself in this position last week as I trekked into the abyss. Coming upon this rather unassuming spot in Norwood (west of Peterborough and east of Marmora) I didn't think much of it. from the outside and their signage I could tell that they served; Moosehead beer, chicken, fish and ribs. I was hungry so that made the decision of "I wonder what I could eat here" way easier! And I did just that! Much like the area, the inside was quaint and cottagy but not in a Canadiana tacky why, more of a modern feel to a cottage with a cooler vibe - but packed with locals dining hard! After a quick peruse of the menu the decision to try a little bit of a few things was easier and I went with the Halibut and 1/4 chicken meal. This came a choice of potatoes and a choice of sides (coleslaw or beans). I went with the coleslaw and french fries. And i paired that with mooseheads trendy cousin beer - cracked canoe! You gotta love these small places, because they know that they gotta deliver the goods and they did. The chicken was moist, sauced properly and fall off the bone tender. The fish was light fluffy and crispy but not over battered. The coleslaw was creamy and just perfect, while the fries were in short supply (which I was actually grateful for) but were crispy and went perfect with malt vinegar and salt. Between that meal and the beer the total bill was around $20 + tip, so fairly reasonable. If you're in the area definitely make a stop here Jack's isn't jerking you around - it's good old fashioned eats prepared right! Eatcrest Out read more

Good food and services. Drive by for years and missed this place. Just found it on Yelp and will be back. Have to try out the deserts.

Stopped here on a road trip on a whim. It was fantastic- huge portions and great prices. I had the 1 pice cod with onion rings and couldn't eat it all. My boys had two pieces with fries and neither could finish. So, I'd suggest share! But eat here! read more

Honestly, my first experience wasn't the greatest and Laurie and her team at Jacks went above and beyond to make sure we had a great return. The food was delicious and the service was so lovely and kind. Laurie is a special lady. Thank you so much again for personally taking care of us and being so awesome. And thanks for the delicious food, so good we have it for our lunches tomorrow too! Huge portion of delicious food! Can't wait to return! read more

The fish is gross all you can eat not sure what kind of fish it is...service is slow.

Rip off for anything but mediocre fried fish! Our perch was tiny, seasonless, and dried (I suspect it was frozen) and the vegetable half frozen and slathered in butter. All Even our 4 year old would not eat the fried fish covered in ketchup. Super disappointed with this place - I expected better! read more

Amazing Chowder! Great friendly service. Clean establishment. Such a wonderful surprise on the way back to Toronto.

We drove to Ottawa from Toronto and decided to stop for something to eat. I just didn't feel like anything typical like McDonalds or Tim Hortons and decided to look for a "small town" restaurant and try something different. I was glad we did. Jack's Restaurant was very clean and inviting. The day we went they were having their "all you can eat" fish and chip special. They serve it with coleslaw. They also included clam chowder in their special. But me and my husband skipped that since we were both allergic to it. But even without it, the meal was fresh and fantastic! Everything was perfectly made. I would definitely stop here again and the people also were nice. read more

Our 1st take out order from Jacks Restaurant. Got a take out fish dinner for 2, French fries were awful, all crisp, overcooked and the small ends, the fish had very little batter but the halibut itself was great, the beans were mainly bean juice. a waste of $34.00, bad food, the waitress said there would be 6 pieces of fish, there was 2. bad food, bad service, don't waste your money. read more
