Hope you can juggle your fork while holding your belongings! – Food and service is okay, however, don't leave any of your personal belongings behind you. I left my laptop behind on Christmas Eve and when I realized the restaurant was closed. I was unable to call until the day after Christmas since they were closed, assuming they'd have my laptop, however, they did not. After days of dealing with a "manager" who served my table, the owner finally spoke to me and viewed video of the table and confirmed that no patrons took the... read more

delicious food at a reasonable price – it was my boyfriends birthday and he had to work late (construction) so hehad to show up to Jake's, a classy steakhouse in which patrons were wearing suits and ties, in jeans, construction boots, and a dirty sweatshirt. after apologizing to the waitstaff for his appearance (they laughed it off) we recieved excellent service and plenty of attention (however, this was at 9 on a wed night so i cant say we would recieve the same treatment on a busy evening). the food was really good, it tru... read more

Good Steak – All the food at Jake's is top quality and delicious, especially given the location. I've had a steak, the burger, and the pulled pork and chicken sandwiches, all of which were delicious.

One night, I recieved my steak and it a... read more

eat at jakes – if you dig delectable steak, try the jakes filet. an amazing piece of meat topped with gorgonzola and fried onions complimented with a port wine sauce. or try the prime rib.. the best i've had at any steakhouse in all of new york city. (and i've been to many of them) most of the wait staff is par excellence, with a couple of exceptions.. note: the female servers are always good.
