What Sirhc E dislikes about Jack's:
I had the seafood cioppino, which was very good, though my only criticism is that it was a bit too salty. My girlfriend ordered the crispy chicken sandwich and fries, and she said it was delicious. The prices were a little higher than I expected. View all feedback.

This is a fantastic restaurant to dine at. The prices are a bit on the higher side, so we only visit for special occasions, but they truly know how to make those moments feel special.

Service was very good and friendly. Cooks were extremely slow but the food was wonderful. I had the lamb sausage flatbread; my wife had the special salad, curry soup, and hummus to go. We were with a group of friends (8 total), and it was nearly an hour from the time we got there to the time the food started arriving.

My wife and I dined at Jack's this evening along with another couple. We started by sharing two appetizers: hummus and truffle black garlic deviled eggs. For the main course, we enjoyed an eight-skewer tower featuring lamb, steak, shrimp, chicken, and salmon. To finish off the meal, we shared baklava with ice cream and a Nutella crêpe crème brûlée for dessert. Everything was exceptional, and it truly ranked among the best meals we've had in quite a while. The service was excellent as well. I remember our server being very attentive…

We drove on the way to az. place is a little strange. a kind of food club. no bar or beer wine. kept waiting for something that goes wrong or lacking. that was so, hidden gem! a glass wee would make it 5 stars.

A restaurant with almost no parking, connected to a laundromat, next to Wendy's? This can't be a good place right? Oh boy is that not the case. Aesthetics: The first thing you'll notice when you walk in is that the inside's decor is very appealing! Nice atmosphere with TV paintings and wall outlets by edge tables. The food is all extremely appealing in design, and is well plated. It feels much more formal inside than you would expect outside. Drinks: They do not serve alcohol here, but do allow you to bring in your own and they provide glasses free of charge. They have tea, coffee and other standard sodas. (I can't remember if it was Pepsi or Coke, sorry Appetizers: We've been here several times and have had most of their appetizers and they're all delicious. One thing that sets Jack's apart is that all their condiments are home made (including the ranch)! The Truffle Black Garlic Deviled Eggs are my favorite. Food: I highly recommend the Bison Burger if you're a fan of burgers, it's one of my favorites in town; the aioli sauce on top is perfect. My wife typically gets the Charcuterie Board, which is an assortment of meats, vegetables and cheeses served with bite sized pieces of naan bread. If you're on a date, the skewer tower is a good option if you both want to share something. They serve you a flaming tower of 5 skewers with sides around the base similar to the Characuterie Board, with some additional options. Dessert: We got the House-Made Baklava and it was fantastic. Conclusion: My wife and I have been coming since this place opened, Jack's Restaurant is one of the best restaurants in Normal and the chef owners really put a lot of effort into their food, and it shows. If you're a fan of Mediterranean, you would be doing yourself a disservice not to come here.

The souvlaki and baklava were unforgettable. My only regret is taking so long to try this place out — what a gem! Can’t wait to return!

First visit, won't be long before another. Great service, but expect to wait for your delicious, hot food, prepared for you. Carrot soup was wonderful. Grilled octopus was tasty, tender, outstanding. Gyro's were awesome as was the Paella and Lambs shepherd pie. All arrived hot and nicely presented. What a gem. Go.

Am kicking myself for not stopping in before. Doesn't look like much outside but lovely interior. Had seafood cioppino and was awesome good portion size and prepared great!! Really nice to have such array of different dishes than get elsewhere. Didn't serve alcohol but let you bring own in. Service pleasant but bit slow, but think that's because I arrived ahead of dinner crowd

I had the Lamb Sausage Flatbread which was amazing and my boyfriend had the Jacks Angus burger which was equally amazing. We had the Hummus starter which was delicious with carrots, cucumber and flatbread. Great service and very nice atmosphere.Food: 5/5

We never considered this restaurant until reading a recent article about it. We always thought it was a diner like in LeRoy. Their menu interested us.Food was good. Not great, but definitely good. No complaints there.Service is really lacking. Our server seemed very....confused is the only word I can think of. It took quite awhile for him to come to our table for the first time and when he did he seemed confused. He warned us kitchen got slammed. We were in no hurry so didn't mind. We put in an appetizer dinner order. It took over 45 minutes to get our dinner. I'd rule it out to being his warning except that the 4some on one side of us 2some on the other who came in after us got their food before us. In fact, the 4some finished their dinner were paying the check before we got our dinner. After dinner, we ordered desserts. One came out (after another long wait) correctly. The other was a totally wrong order. We had to wait again for the second one to be corrected. Luckily, my wife and I planned to share the desserts it worked out.If you plan to eat here, bring a bottle of wine and patience.

I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The food was excellent, with a great variety of dishes available. It was especially accommodating for our vegetarian and pescatarian family members, as they had plenty of options to choose from. The service was a bit slow, but considering we were a large group and it seemed there were only three staff members handling the dining area, it was understandable. One unique aspect I appreciated was that the restaurant allows BYOB, which worked out perfectly for our party. Overall, be patient, soak in the atmosphere, and you’ll have a great time!

My mom and I dined at this restaurant and were impressed by its cleanliness and attractive décor. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the food was outstanding! We sampled the roasted eggplant appetizer, the roasted beet salad, and the gnocchi, all of which were delicious.

I ordered Jack's Special Salad for lunch, and it was absolutely delightful. It featured a combination of greens, walnuts, raisins, pomegranate seeds, mandarin oranges, and goat cheese, all drizzled with a honey balsamic dressing. The service was outstanding, and the decor of the restaurant was stunning, creating an upscale ambiance. I truly enjoyed my visit and would highly recommend it for both lunch and dinner. Although I dined alone, I could easily see it being an ideal location for a romantic date as well. The women’s restroom was clean. I went on a Tuesday around 11:15 AM and was pleasantly surprised to find the restaurant nearly empty, although a large group did arrive just before I left. For a quieter dining experience, I suggest visiting on a Tuesday during the opening hours.

I’ve previously ordered the bison burger to-go from this restaurant. Recently, I visited with a special friend, and we had a delightful experience with the flavorful lamb rolls and the wood grill skewer platter, which featured lamb, chicken, and shrimp—all expertly seasoned. The seating area is cozy but somewhat small, so I recommend making reservations for special occasions. The service was a bit slow, likely due to having only two staff members working, but it’s best to arrive before peak dining hours (we got there before 6). Overall, it’s a lovely place with friendly staff and delicious kabobs, although it is a bit on the pricey side.

Jack's is one of my top spots in BloNo. Today, I tried the lunch combo special featuring Jack’s special salad and curried carrot soup, and both were fantastic! The soup had the perfect balance of curry spice, and I’m a big fan of salads with goat cheese. If you haven’t been yet, definitely give this place a shot!

Don't be fooled by the exterior—inside, the atmosphere is much more romantic than you might expect. The lighting is soft, the music enjoyable, and the staff professional. The Mediterranean menu offers a mix of sophisticated dishes alongside familiar favorites like flatbreads, sandwiches, and gyros. You can't go wrong with the meat skewers and grilled vegetables. I adore this little hidden gem and appreciate that it's easy to walk in and get a table. That said, I want everyone to know how wonderful this family-owned restaurant is so it stays around for good! I love this place!
