Feedback
Jacmel Inn offers a mixed dining experience that captivates with exceptional food and service but faces challenges in communication and atmosphere. While many patrons rave about the delightful dishes and cozy ambiance—highlighted by young, attentive servers and comfortable private rooms—issues like mismanagement of wait times and unclear pricing practices tarnish some visits. Complaints about portion sizes and environmental factors, such as inadequate lighting and uneven walkways, emphasize the need for improvement. Despite this, Jacmel Inn remains a recommended spot in Hammond, especially for special occasions, thanks to its memorable meals and warm, inviting atmosphere.
I ordered the wedge salad with added crab, and I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a salad this much! The dressing and the vegetables were incredibly fresh. My friends had the steak frites and the heirloom tomato salad, and everything was absolutely perfect. We left our plates spotless, haha!
The gnocchi and steak tips were cooked and seasoned to perfection, and the redfish was excellent as well. It was definitely a five-star evening! The gnocchi with crabmeat is outstanding. That said, we've dined here many times over the years and truly love it. Occasionally, we have had an experience that was just okay or not great. However, when the food is good, it's truly exceptional! Please keep up the great work with fresh, high-quality dishes, as it can be disappointing to spend a lot of money on a meal that doesn't meet expectations.
They no longer offer baked potatoes! The menu is very disappointing. You can’t choose your own side dish; it’s predetermined for you, and there are no substitutions allowed. It’s really frustrating!
The service and staff were excellent in a wonderfully romantic setting. We've dined here multiple times, and the food has consistently been exceptional.
Unfortunately, our Mother's Day dinner was quite disappointing. While some aspects of the meal were enjoyable, our drinks were good overall (except for the unexpected bug in my water).
