We finally got settled in at the bar after enjoying a cocktail at the lounge area & was served by the bartender duo Eric & Jason! I immediately knew that Eric would be the one I can have banter with & he didn't disappoint. Not only can he pour a tasty drank, he is quick witted & easy to joke with. Lol. Moving on to the delicious bites. I started off with a crab cake & not only did it look like a masterpiece, it was yummy full of meat with no over use of filler. Mmmm. For my main dish was the Alaskan Black Cod. Every bite just melted in your mouth and bursting with flavor! My friend had the New York Strip & it came out the puuuurfect temperature, tender and juicer than a Georgia peach lol. Being that it was my friend's Buuuurday, I secretly told Eric & Matt the plan to bring out a secret desert! Boy, did they deliver. Those chocolate chip cookies are addictive! Soft, hot & full of cocoa goodness! What's the RECIPE!! Lol This should be the standard for all high-end restaurants. Give me the services that comes with the pricing. Present me with a luxurious setting with warm employees who are not pretentious. I can't say enough good things about Guard and Grace! This restaurant is #BarbieApproved

Dinner entrees we ordered black cod which is cooked to melt-in-your-mouth perfection, and it comes with broccolini. I ordered the 4oz Waygu filet. It was also done perfectly. For side, we ordered gnocchi with truffles. Delicious as well. We would go back for special occasions.

I went back to A5 with my husband, and it was right before the end of happy hour (5:30) so we were…read moreable to order their lemongrass meatballs, their mac & cheese croquettes, and an order of fries. The best time to try some of their food items is at happy hour. We also ordered a steak each. I ordered the tenderloin while he ordered the tri-tip with the au poivre sauce, which cost extra ($9). Personally, I don't think it was worth the money. Of course, I had to order the meatballs: deliciously made and full of flavors. Wrapping the lettuce leaf and some fried shallot onions and peanuts and you have 2 rolls of stuffed lettuce with meatballs. It is a must for you to dip in their homemade nước mắm (fish sauce). And again, they are just fries, but these fried potatoes are seasoned well. I liked them, so I had to ordered them again from the last time I was there for their happy hour, which was two days ago. So...they undercooked our steaks. The tri-tip was supposed to be medium well, and the tenderloin was supposed to be medium, but both came out medium rare. And so, we asked them if they could cook the steaks a little bit more for us, which they took back to the kitchen. We waited for perhaps 5 to 10 more minutes before the steaks were present to us at our table. What we were pleasantly surprised was that they completely gave us two brand new steaks. Along with the steaks, they comped us a big bowl of whipped potatoes, which turned out really good with our steaks. My tenderloin was definitely much better tasting than my husband's tri-tip. Very tender and perfectly cooked for my tasting. I would definitely come back and will try one of their desserts, which we were told all our made in-house. The ambiance was nice: conversations stayed within each table.

It's not often you find a staff this attentive and this content, and it made the whole evening feel relaxed and well looked after. I started with the Late For The Train cocktail, a refreshing grapefruit, honey, and coconut drink with a hint of rose, ideal for a summer evening. The food was excellent too. From the happy hour menu, the Spiedini were a highlight: tender bison tenderloin skewers on a bed of peppery arugula. The Polpette were just as good, with beef and pork meatballs in a bright pomodoro under a blanket of Grana Padano. For dinner I had the Tagliatelle with Maine lobster, Calabrian chili, preserved tomato, and celery. The pasta was perfectly cooked, the lobster was generous, and the chili added just enough heat. I'll definitely be back.

Either way it was late and we were looking for some sort of sit down to eat and glad we stumbled upon this place. We called first to make sure and honestly didn't realize it was a Speakeasy or something to that extent. When we arrived it looked like a book store and talked to the host and found out we were in the right place and although we didn't have a reservation they were able to accommodate us almost immediately which was great. The atmosphere was great and we both enjoyed our time. I don't drink anymore but got a mocktail but my girl drinks so she had a couple so we got to see the mixologist do their thing. I can tell he was itching to make more drinks but he was great and gave us some places to check out around town before we left back for California. The whole experience was great , my girl enjoyed her drinks and we both enjoyed the food and most importantly; the reason you would want to come here, the experience. The atmosphere and the service were great and recommend for quiet celebrations or date nights .

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

They said they don't have table in main dining area. C'mon??? Why open tables for reservation if you don't have place to sit. The night was pretty cold.

The service was warm and friendly as well as efficient and helpful! The charm and experience was amazing too! I've had all the meats we sampled in the shared board before and all were done well. The real star of the night for me food wise was actually the soup of the day a green chili cauliflower soup! It was so good my son took part of my bowl. As I mentioned we did the shared meat experience and I found everything to be cooked properly. The quail was actually really flavorful too. The kids chicken sandwich was bland but fine. My kids loved the desserts too and they were kind enough to even split one of them on separate plates! A nice worker stopped and told us a fun ghost story that was fun and got our youngest to go walk around upstairs. Overall we really enjoyed our experience and would recommend it to anyone that wanted a fun, comfortable dinner with a cool experience.

Reminds me a little of supper clubs in WI. The building is fun and pretty unique. Service is friendly and great. Experience is a solid 5. Mostly traditional cocktails done well. We had some pretty yummy martinis. Food: Old school steakhouse vibe where you get to pick a soup/salad and a side of potatoes which I loved. I got the french onion soup - yummy, and the specialty mashed potato which was a jalepeno one that day. It also came with a side of veggies. They are known for their sugar steak so we obviously had to get that on a New York Strip. Overall, it was all pretty solid - the sugar rub was a nice touch. Just sweet enough for some crystallization without being too overpowering. The steak itself just didn't blow me away. I wanted it to be a little more juicy, tender, and a bit more flavorful. Would I come back: Overall a fun experience. It's not a place I'm dying to go back to but if someone wanted to go - I wouldn't say no.

Beef tartare was close behind, finely diced and well-seasoned. The guacamole was fresh and chunky, the prawns had a nice char, and the Amarillo ceviche brought a bright, citrusy heat from the aji amarillo peppers that balanced beautifully against the cool, tender fish. But the real highlight of the night was the steaks. My skirt steak was cooked perfectly, well-charred outside and tender inside, paired with the potatoes three ways, crispy, creamy, and roasted, each with its own texture and seasoning. Even better was the tomahawk ribeye, flambéed tableside in mezcal, a great bit of theater with a smoky, slightly sweet flame that infused the meat. I got lucky enough to try a bite. Rich, buttery, and delicious with heavy rosemary. A real treat. Service was a bit spotty for our group. I won't go into details, but our server disappeared for long stretches and it took a long time to finally get our entrees. This was likely because of our specific server.
