See all

Service was great. Polite and patient. The food left a lot to be desired. I got the Jackson hole filet and it must have sat for a day or so as I get my meet medium rare and there was no juice to this meat. It was just dry and bland. My garlic mash potatoes could spackle a wall. The honey butter croissant was good and yeasty. Probably won't be coming back. read more

Rafferty's Restaurant & Bar - Filet? - Bars Near Me - Jackson, Tennessee

We love rafferty's. The food and service have always been consistent and great till tonight. I ordered the soup of the day which was turkey chilli and it was the one of the worst things I have ever tasted. I asked my wife to try it too just to make sure it wasnt just me and the look on her face confirmed my thinking. We sent it back. the after taste stayed with us for a while. I ordred the ribs. They definitley were not fresh. They were dry and not fall off the bone as ribs should be. The main thing I could taste was lots of salt. Please get rid of the chilli and make sure your ribs are fresh and tender. read more

As we enter, you feel the warm welcome right away, very cordial. The waiter was young but passionate of his work. Very helpful with the recommendations and very honest. Unlike others servers, this young man gave his personal opinion of the food, be it good or bad. This is my 3rd day in Jackson, TN and I am finally feeling that I am in TN due to the ambiance of the restaurant, dark wood flooring and brick wall. On top of that, of course the food! No kidding, one of the best chicken salad I ever had, paired with their bacon/potato soup!! One of my faves. read more

Usually food is always great here, we have usually gone at least once a week. However the last salads we ordered from there were sour, not fresh at all. Management was no help and extremely rude. It makes me sad to see all my favorite restaurants in this town stating to go down hill and then closing. read more

I haven't been to Rafferty's in a while, but I really enjoyed their chicken salad with their croissant. It was full of flavor and the croissant always provides a nice touch. The ribs were pretty tender and their french fries were good as well. I would have like them to be more crispy. The club was great with the house made honey mustard The service was decent, but the place was pretty clean. read more

Dissapointing experience. Ordered a ribeye- medium. It came well done. The replacement came well done. Others in our party had disappointing meals. Quality has gone down. Won't be going back any time soon. Expensive disappointment. read more

Great service foe the "to go" call in orders. They were ready in less than 15 minutes. They have a separate side door for the to go orders The food was fresh and hot and service was great! They even give a 15% discount for veterans which was nice read more

The food is always good when I visit this establishment. I especially love their potato soup and club sandwiches. The service is always good and assertive. If I need anything that make it possible. The atmosphere is laid back and I always feel comfortable. This location also has a happy hour which is from 4-7. I don't like that the margaritas are not on happy hour, and they could add some appetizers to the happy hour. read more

First let me say that Rafferty's is usually one of my favorite go to restaurants. I've always enjoyed them in multiple cities. Went to the Jackson, TN location tonight for a light dinner and my wife and I only wanted a house salad with house dressing. We love their house dressing!!! For some reason, tonight's bacon dressing tasted old. I usually don't have a bad meal here, but tonight I was disappointed. This won't keep me from coming back, everyone has an off night, but I was very surprised tonight with the taste. read more

Great prime rib, Rolls to die for. What a nice place when in the mood for MEAT. Service outstanding and friendly

Our family visited here several weeks ago for the first time and it was a great experience with Autumn (hope that is correct) as our server. She was fantastic and we sat near the bar. The food was great, the service was perfect. Fast forward to yesterday, and it was the complete opposite. First, we ordered the battered mushrooms and for some reason, we waited, and waited and waited and ... well you get the point. Finally, somebody came out and apologized for the delay. They said our first order was overcooked and burnt and so we were told the oil was being replaced we'll get a fresh order. You would think at this point, they would have said, "Hey, we'll comp the shrooms" but that wasn't the case. Next, we finally get the rest of the food and it was just okay. The salmon was way over cooked. The potatoes were mushy and bland. We also ordered dessert (Apple Crumble) and it was very good. However, multiple times, they (the runner and the server) simply left all of our empty plates on the table as they brought the desert. They had three chances to at least remove some of the used dishes however I guess that's how it goes. Our drinks weren't refilled. Our server at first was attentive and then that stopped. I'm just so confused. Rafferty's is now at a score of 1-1. Do we go back and give them another try or simply go elsewhere... Note: this is our experience and your time there may differ. read more

We go here quite often and its always really good except the rarely get me steak right so i just get the Alfredo and it's really good but its a good place to go out and eat the Servers can be questionable but all in all pretty good read more

They don't advertise, they don't brag, but what and awesome find! I've lived in the Jackson area for over 2 years and never knew this place was here! It was packed with people so we ate at the bar so we would not have to wait. There was only one bartender and she was stretched very thin. She kept a smile on her face and served us delicious cocktails! Husband ordered a steak and I ordered ribs and both were very good! Our salads came out really quickly and we were surprised about that since there were so many people there. This may just be our new go to place! If I were going to make one recommendation I would say to have more than one bartender on duty during busy times. Also when we were sitting at the bar, I could smell the trash can which was a turn off. Maybe enclose the trash can or move it? read more

Stopped in Jackson, TN on the way back from Fort Worth, TX. Nice facility and atmosphere. Wide variety of food choices. The Cowboy Steak and Salmon were excellent and done to order. Service was first class. read more

Although we've had some really bad experiences at this Rafferty's in recent years, we've recently returned due to preferences of members of our family. A while back, on one visit, I ordered grilled pork chops, which were terrible. The only detectable taste was a burnt taste. Today, we decided to try it once again, and I ordered a ribeye steak - which is very hard to mess up! Well, they managed to make it taste like charcoal - similar to the pork chops!! The texture of the steak also was poor. Anyone knows that a ribeye steak should be very tender, juicy - and tasty!! The person who cooked this steak must have missed the memo! Perhaps it was the same person who ruined the pork chops a while back!! To their credit, my wife had the potato/bacon soup, which she said was very tasty. It seems that it would be much more difficult to make tasty soup than a tasty steak - but, perhaps, the soup comes out of a can or the freezer!! I've told my wife that this was our last visit!! Poor quality of food, combined with rather high prices, doesn't deserve our business!! At one time, quite a few years ago, this was not the case here at all. What a shame!!!! read more

The food was good. It tasted good but the menu was a tad small. The service was great and the staff was helpful and nice. The inside was very basic, nothing to complain about. However the outside was very nice, the front had nice flowers and a well maintained yard. I had the potato soup, it was pretty good. read more

I always enjoy going to Rafferty's no matter which location they are all consistently good and I love their fries. They always give you a plate full of fries.thanks. read more

Love it but service is what builds a restaurant not the food but raffertys hit all my taste buds but service could be better. I give them a 4 out of 5 score. read more

Over 1/2 the restaurant blocked off Covid, most in town have opened up since we are no longer under a mask mandate. Hardly any cars in lot, had to wait 20-30 min for a table, service at least was good. Food was ok, not like I remember. Most likely won't ever return. read more

Really enjoyed this place. We were visiting family and yelped this place! Everyone loved it. I had the house salad and loved it!! Very good and perfect simple touches. Great staff and I would go back for sure. Below is the sunset we took in Jackson. read more

Rafferty's Restaurant & Bar - Sunset of Jackson Tennessee - Bars Near Me - Jackson, Tennessee

Stopped in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised that redfish was the fish of the day and at a reasonable price. I had blackened redfish with sweet potato. The fish was seasoned well and cooked perfectly. The sweet potato was so big I took half home. My husband ordered pork chops again cooked perfectly. He also enjoyed a nice salad and baked potato. Our server was on point and checked on us regularly. The only real critique I have is the front door was full of fingerprints and since the restaurant had only been open an hour that's not a good first impression. I will say the restaurant itself was clean. read more

Great entrees, sports bar atmosphere but not too loud. Good service too. My favs are buffalo chicken tenders, spinach salad (with salmon), and loaded potato soup! Bon appétit! read more

Rafferty's is an old favorite in town. Consistently good food. I hope they never leave. Chicken tender platter with fries and banana cream pie for me, please. read more

The food and service is always good here. The other day though, when we came in for lunch, I got the potato soup and salad. The soup tasted good but it wasn't hot, not even warm. It was like room temp or cooler. My husband said I should send it back but I didn't because of all the horror stories you hear about cooks getting mad and tampering with your food. Soup is supposed to be hot though. FYI Raffertys. read more

Really liked this spot. We sat at the bar and had a couple of cheeseburgers. Great taste. Fries were delicious and good atmosphere.

Great food fast friendly service and awesome atmosphere. We love the food. The last time we went there the service was wonderful.

The service was okay, but the food was overpriced for the quality and portions. Also, the restaurant had a strange odor. We're local, but won't be returning. read more

I had never been here, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I got a cheeseburger and fries and was pleasantly surprised. The burger was juicy, cooked perfect and very tasty and the veggies on it tasted very fresh. My only complaint are easy fixes and don't affect my rating. The fries were too salty for my taste and my burger needed more condiments but I've noticed that all the burgers I've had in Jackson need more condiments so probably just the way they do things here. I can't wait to go back, I am a burger lover! read more

Great food after a long travel day. We had the prime rib it was great. Staff was attentive and food service was fast. Will defiantly visit again. It is like a bennigans with good food ! read more

If you're looking for a place to eat and get full for the right price and quality food in addition to that, this is your place. The staff is courteous and quick to get us in and out for a very tight lunch schedule. The spinach salad was delicious I do recommend the hot bacon on The side and a side of their tarragon vinaigrette. Totally different flavors and textures. The tarragon vinegar it was delicious and refreshing one of my party ordered the steak and it was prepared perfectly and two of the others had the hamburgers. They two were prepared the way that they were ordered even though one of my crazy friends likes to eat is rare. It look like it was going to moo!!!! All salads and entrées/dinners come with the honey for socks. Therefore there is no use ordering the table order unless everyone is getting hamburgers or sandwiches which do not come with the croissants and they are definitely worth having read more

For a chain restaurant it has a great menu and a decent wine list. It is also kid friendly and has a "cozy feeling". For the money it is a great value. read more

Wasn't a fan maybe I went on an off night but food was meh. The service was good. And the rolls everyone be talking about were ok.

No long wait for our party of six. Everyone was highly satisfied with meal choice. Proportions were large, we all had to take carry out boxes. I had the club and it was really good. Our server was great and very attentive. I would recommend for reasonable prices and great portions. Nothing fancy but cool laid back place. read more
