Food was great! We ordered off the adult and children's menu. The children's chicken nuggets are dinosaur but most kids do not care. I had the grilled halibut it was delicious. My daughter Had the children's fish and chips and said she wished she had gotten what I did. Hubby had the halibut fish and chips and what I tried was delicious! I ordered clam chowder which I did not receive, they gave me some to go which was fine since I was full anyway. I tried it the next day and it was delicious. Most clam chowders are more of a potato base but this clam chowder is definitely for those who want more clam than potato. They are very busy. Small establishment. Would definitely go again read more

Stopped by here with my parents during a coastal trip. This ended up being one of my parents' favorite meals of the trip. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Unfortunately it had drizzled so we stayed indoors but the outdoor seating was great, overlooking the water. We were here kind of at a dead time so there wasn't many customers. Had really great seafood options. Loved the cioppino. It was better than what we had up in Portland that cost waaay more. Service was also great. The waiter did also have his lunch while we were there but was really good about coming around and making sure we were satisfied with everything. read more

One day in Eureka.... husband wanted oysters and this was the recommendation we got from a local. parking easy. view spectacular! right on the water. only 1 person working when we arrived (2 by the time we left). there is indoor and outdoor seating. The temperature and view was much nicer outside. Service was very friendly. She was able to answer drink questions so well (found out she started as a bartender). We loved our food and drink. I've already recommended this to my son who lives nearby. Looking forward to another visit. read more

We've been here a few times before. We went for the 1st time for dinner. Our waiter, Chris, was awesome. Such a hard worker. We had the shrimp cocktail, which is a mix of warm jumbo shrimp along with a cold mini shrimp cocktail. It was delicious. My wife had the scallops & I had the ribeye with sautéed mushrooms & shrimp. The Ribeye was seasoned perfectly & the portions are big with lots of potatoes & veggies. My wife loved the scallops. read more

Easy to find restaurant next to the bay. Lots of close parking. Had lots of guests and only 1 server-he was very busy but welcomed us/was very helpful answering all our questions and giving us suggestions even though he was super busy. I ordered the fish and chips with a delicous macadamia nut porter. The drink came quickly he brought the can and a glass. The meal came in about 10-15 minutes. The fish was excellent and the chips looked hand cut and were crispy and tasty. I will definately stop here again when I'm in the area. read more

We really liked this place. They were short on staff and it was a Saturday night, but they were still able to pull it off. Had the linguine with clams and scallops dinners. Both were delicious and the serving sizes were generous. We had sides of the mushroom miso soup and a salad which also were tasty. We dined at the bar which has a great view of the water. If we're ever back in the area we'd definitely come back to try other menu items. read more

The food here was so tasty! The butter that was served with the bread was better than any butter I've ever had. The fettuccine alfredo was super creamy and flavorful which I enjoyed! The staff here is super nice and there was a nice view of the water where we were sitting. I would highly recommend this place! read more

I had the half sandwich with a cup of miso mushroom soup. I chose the fish sandwich and the fish was really moist and tasty with lettuce, tomato, and onions. It was delicious and I was very happy with it except I wish there was more fish; the fish came in pieces and didn't cover the bread. The mushroom miso soup was good, but nothing special; it would've cost $5 to upgrade to clam chowder, but from what others said, I'm glad I didn't. I would say the food is probably three and a half stars, but the hard working servers doing triple duty kicked it up to four stars. My dining companions had the half crab sandwich, grilled halibut, and cioppino and they thought their food was good but not fantastic. All in all, I would eat here again, but I probably won't be in this area again. read more

Great food, nice workers. Good place to eat. Great fish and chips. I think the best in town.

The cocktails were delicious. Freshly made and chilled perfectly. The fish and chips were good NOT greasy. Coleslaw was a bit bland. Po boy was loaded with shrimp and goodie's. The service decent. The waiter was just having a rough day. Ambiance was comfortably nautical read more

We came here as my sister in law (SIL) recommended this place was decent and we were feeling seafood. We came for graduation and Mother's day weekend. It took a few minutes to get seated as there was one hostess and 2 servers. Which is somewhat shocking as theres 12 seating areas (some booths seating 4, others combined to seat 6) inside and around 12 seating areas outside as well. It looked like they were understaffed with the onflow of patrons coming in. I chatted with a lady while waiting to get seated and she also was waiting just to sign her check, so it looks like the restaurant was plenty busy. She told me they're not usually this busy but the food was good, which got me looking forward to our meal. We were ready to order after looking over the menu for 10 minutes. However took a while for a waitress to come over to us. We asked the hostess if she could let the waitress know we were ready to order, but it seems the one she asked said that we weren't her table to go to. When we noticed several groups getting their orders after us, we ended up finally flagging someone else after another 20 minutes. She mentioned she wasn't our waitress in but she could take out order. When ordering with her, we asked a question to see how filling the spicy seafood bowl (listed off their specials) would be as our group liked to share and try things. She told us it would be enough to feed one person, which we found hard to believe as it involved 1 lb of dungeness crab legs, 1 lb of pacific blue mussels, 1/2 lb of jumbo shrimp, gold potatoes, and corn on the cob bathed in butter, garlic, anise, ginger, and cajun spices. The food was alright. Their mac and cheese was as good as my SIL claimed. The spicy seafood bowl was not bad, and matched the mild taste. We were too deterred to order anything else. I tried to give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt that they were just busy, and perhaps it was a mix up with who should be serving us. But maybe it might have been because we were the only non-Caucasians in the restaurant. We never got clarification on who our waitress was supposed to be, but at least got our food. We never got asked how the food was. Amusingly enough, I noticed all the other tables got asked how the food was, and our table seemed to be avoided like the plague. We were seated in the corner, so would be hard to miss us. There was a parking lot for parking, but there was also a group of homeless outside nearby the front. For the bathroom, you would need to get a code from the waitresses in order to use it. If I was ever in this town again, I would opt not to go here as I thought the service was lacking and did not feel like a fine dining experience to me. read more

Ok so just barely had the four stars. The shrimp was massive for my dinner but a bit over breaded. Veggies were great and the fries were the best part! Service was great and the food was quick and hot. read more

Wow... just wow!!! We were taking a road trip and asked Chat GPT for a recommendation for best clam chowder in Eureka and it brought up Jack's Seafood and it did not disappoint.

Honestly, no good - was looking for a place to get seafood with the fam and we had high hopes. Every single dish had no flavor sadly. For three of us it cost 100 dollars for mid tasting food. I could have went to a food truck and got something better for half the price. I could have made something better at home for a third of that. The calamari was great everything else was not. - clam chowder - calamari - halibut burger - shrimp tacos - fish sandwich Find somewhere better or order different. read more

Lovely little spot for waterfront dining! We stopped by tonight to grab a bite and enjoy the sunset. What a treat! The crowd was mellow, the food was delicious and we appreciated the great selection of local craft beer + delicious cocktails. We tried the grilled oysters, coconut shrimp + a couple small items to share. My partner raved about the oysters while I cherished my prawns. The butterfly cut and shredded coconut crust made this shareable plate truly divine. Our Caesar salad was adequate at best but we still finished the plate without any complaints. You could definitely tell that the team was spread a bit thin, but the flavorful food and great attitudes made up for the slight neglect. I've found that these type of places can be a bit of a cash grab, but this spot actually delivers high quality at an appropriate price. Cheers to Jack's! read more

Torn between four and three stars. We went for lunch on a Saturday. We sat on the patio and enjoyed the spectacular view and weather. We had a male server and he was awesome, very attentive and personable. My husband ordered the Baja tacos and he said those were amazing. I had a bowl of clam chowder that was very good. We shared the fried calamari and it was crispy with good dipping sauces. Food was served quickly and the Bloody Mary was spicy and delicious. Five star lunch. We decided we liked it so much we would go back and try dinner. The place was busy but we were sat fairly quick at the same table outside. Lovely. Our server finally graced us with her presence and seemed miserable doing it. Everything came out at once. Husband ordered the fish and chips and said there was more breading than fish. The fries were ok. I ordered the cioppino and we got a whole crab to share. The cioppino had a great flavor, but could have used more fish. The whole crab was expensive and over cooked. A bit rubbery and dry. Our waitress did not return to check on us and we didn't get any refills or new drinks. She did pop back to give us the check. Then she didn't bring back my credit card with the receipt so I ended up, absentmindedly leaving it there. Ugh. She had the personality of a doormat. Two stars at best. A total contrast in experiences. So I will go with 3.5 stars because you definitely always remember the bad over the good. Lunch service on Saturday killed it. Thanks guys. read more

Second time i have gone there. Second time i have been very disappointed. The wait staff is very inattentive. Never once came over to ask if everything was ok or if we needed anything. Prices are outrageous for the food. Got a crab Louie and the crab was frozen, even tho they were serving whole Dungenous crab on the menu. I asked the waitress after I got it if it was frozen and she said yes. Only fresh crab was the whole crabs. Asked if bread came with the crab louie and she said "yes, would you like some"???? Duh!!! No ice in water!!! Crab was so skimpy on salad i had to ask for more crab!!! The only thing that wasn't skimpy was price. Not going a third time!!! read more

Coconut shrimp was amazing, as was the shrimp tacos and chowder. Great place to eat with view overlooking the water. Great service!

Steak fries were overcooked and well, cheap American quality. The water tasted really bad - undrinkable. All the waitress staff were super friendly, and very accommodating. read more

Honestly, this is probably around 3.5 stars. We had a party of seven, and were seated without a wait, but it was a weekday. The service was quick. Ambiance was nice; we had a view of the bay. Food was fine. However, some members of our group thought the fries could be better. Crab cakes were average. The Brazilian stew (rock cod) was a bit too spicy for us. Crab salad sandwich melt was good, but it could have done with a little more crab. Clam linguine's broth was good, if a bit thin. Seared scallops were very good. Cooked just right and fresh. The clam chowder was excellent though and the miso mushroom soup is good. read more

THIS IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST RESTAURANT IN HUMBOLDT COUNTY!!! I'm from down south and I love living here but the only thing that kind of sucks is the food. Humboldt doesn't have a great selection of restaurants, maybe it was better before COVID, but it's not great now. This place is incredible. The food is spectacular, the service is great, and it's right on the water. I took my girlfriend there for her birthday and we split the seafood boil. It was amazinggg. The best we've ever had. We kept talking about it the whole night. We also got oysters, clam chowder, and calamari, plus drinks. Everything was delicious. The price was decent for all that we got. The best meal I've had in Humboldt county hands down. The service was great too. Our waiter was super nice and attentive. We sat at a booth and it was very comfortable and we could see the bay and watch ships go by. All around amazing experience! We will be back again soon. read more

The cioppino had a bit of everything as usual. It was on the spicy side. I'm not much of a spicy food guy, so my eyes were watering and nose was running. The bread was lightly toasted and fresh. Salad was fresh and delightful. I rarely order chocolate mousse. But with coffee, it was sublime. The service was quick and efficient. Hard to beat the view. read more
