Has that classic bar feel in atmosphere, the bartender is a sweetheart and is very professional, food is great, had the Reuben, delicious, same with their drinks as there is a great selection of cocktails, beer, whiskey. Great music while you chat up with friends.Nice little spot to take a load off.

Burger is small and no flavor. Ordered it medium. Came burnt and dry. Got curds as my side instead of fries. Premium upgrade....comes out and its 5 whole whopping curds. Should have ordered waffle fries. Come on man..... very loud atmosphere.. cant hear conversation. To bad I live so close now. Back to the old favorites. Much better food

I received a delivery request and I got there in about 10 minutes to pick up a burger and wrap. They definitely weren’t busy. I waited another 10 minutes before I got the order. No apology for waiting for order. Food delivery drivers don’t get paid for waiting time. It amazes me that local restaurants don’t realize or care that the driver could be a potential customer. I live very close and will never be a customer.

We arrived at 12:20 on Thursday July 18th, party of 2 with a third to arrive later. Apparently there was Only One server and to say she was overwhelmed is an understatement. We waited at least 15 minutes for a drink and then when the food came out (2 burgers) she managed to dump most of my fries on the ground as we were seated on the patio, she said she would bring more but never did!! I dont care to listen to a Server telling tables How she just came back from vacation and shes tired!! Our 3rd arrived and never got any silverware or napkins so this was just an overall Bad experience 😕 Im sitting here now with the dirty dishes piled up in front of me cause Apparently clearing them is no longer a Server job!!

Food was better than in the past. But....... came specifically for the gluten free pizza as listed on menu. Online and physical menu says they have it. IT is NO LONGER AVAILABLE. They now have nothing on menu gluten free other than salad and plain things. Ok for me but not the wife and she is the boss.... Fish was great however. 👍🏿

Thrid time trying to reserve a low table with Patrick each time it was given away even had an online reservation confirmation this time showed it to a manager she claimed she didnt know you can do it online showed her the site she still claimed not to know of it funny every time I call Cat every thing is fine obviously Patrick doesnt know how to take reservations need to teach your managers about the reservation process terrible absolutely terrible

This is a nice place to get a drink and get out of the heat of the summertime. The staff is very friendly with quick service and good conversation. Everything I have tried on the menu has been delicious and the food keeps me coming back for more. I would recommend this place for a quick lunchtime meal. Its Very Nice!!!

Their Walleye is among our favorite fish served in the area. Crispy, crumb crust (not greasy or beer-battered foam dough). Delicious- as are all their sides, incl veggies. Not the average freezer-to-fryer bar food. Excellent.

I need to give a shout out and big kudos and thank you to Kat. I worked with her for months to plan my boyfriend’s 50th Surprise birthday party. She was awesome, friendly, and so helpful. She helped me off the ledge numerous times with my nerves! Room is spacious for parties, was set up even early, pizza was gobbled by our guests and everyone loved it. Our server Molly for the night worked our party like a champ! Thank you to the team at Jax for making my party an even more memorable night!

We ordered on the phone for pickup. The estimated time to prepare the meals was 30-45 min. Its not bad considering I was 25 minutes away at the time. We ordered three orders of classic wings plain with the sauce on the side. Cost was reasonable, and there was a ton of food. Wings were best around, even with the new wing place down the street. I would go back, and I have gone back a few times!

In addition to being a great bar, this is a great place for lunch or dinner. I have ordered just about everything on the menu by now, and it is surprising good! This isnt just pub food. Everything is delicious and cooked really well. There isnt a bad item on the whole menu. The daily soups are fresh and delicious. Servers are friendly.

Excellent waitress, food and very cold beer. The pork tenderloin sandwich and onion rings were my favorites and I intend to return often for both. Husband really enjoyed his rueben sandwich. Everything was delicious. Also the interior is spacious and clean. Each day one sandwich is on special for 1/2 price which is a nice perk. And for the sun lovers they have a very nice outdoor patio area.

Review №31

The bar tenders are great. They are quick and friendly. However as least 75% of the waitresses are either new or just suck. We had the wrong mimosas 2 times in a row, the diet soda is terrible, most of the food is ok. Id say the burgers and patty melts are the best items we have eaten. The slots are hit or miss. They have made it a much more family friendly atmosphere. They do stop serving food very early as compared to normal, but I think the slots stay open. The music is not great and its not my style. Maybe something a little more upbeat instead of mostly country music.

Prices are decent, food was good, service was very slow, food took a long time to come out.

It was SO loud, even for a bar.Food 4 starsAtmosphere 2 stars

Review №35

Went to the AYCE fish fry that was supposed to have cod, walleye, and haddock on the menu so we ordered myself the Haddock my son wanted Walleye and my wife Cod. The waitress comes back five minutes later to tell me their outta Haddock so I ordered Walleye another 5 minutes she came back to tell my wife she has to order cod by the piece that their not offering AYCE cod today which is strike 2. We ordered the 5 dollar drink specials with Titos my wifes drink was really weak so we let the waitress take it back so she returns with the drink that was topped off and gets the thumbs up for a better drink. We also ordered a round of Halloween special drinks which where tasty. We received the bill to find out none of the drinks came to 5$ and they charged my wife double on the first drink because it was weak and additional fees for mixers!! We spent 114.00$ with tip on a mediocre experience and a limited menu!! My wife was very dissatisfied and doubt well be back!! Be sure to check your bill/allot of extra fees!!!!

The food was excellent. My wife ordered the garlic parmesan wings, and I had the southwest nacho bowl. We also had the spinach artichoke dip as an appetizer. Everything was great! More importantly, the server was amazing. She came back to check on us several times, and made every effort to ensure that we enjoyed our meal. Id certainly recommend this place to anyone, and Ill bet back for sure!

First time at Jax. Jess was our server. She was great. The food was fantastic. I had the Blue Gill, two other folks had walleye, and the fourth had baked cod. The portions were large.

Review №47

Good bar but, depends what you go there for. I will have to agree that the service is less then stellar. I have been 3 times and had to wait quite a bit for service. I liked it because the crowd seemed to be mid 20 to mid 30s and got the most young professional vibe if there is such a thing for Rockford. Good if you are looking to hang out with friends or looking to dance. Top 40 music with a dance floor.

(Nothing about the business directly) Was there one night and my car got hit by a white Chevy Tahoe broken back windshield wiper on 06/19/21 and has not been found. He was a male and it was approximately 11pm. No cameras caught him but multiple people witnessed it. I’m hoping for some one to be able to possibly get his license cause he’s a regular or for witnesses to come forward. I would like to continue going here but I’m worried another driver will hit my car. It’s not fair you got to leave while I have to dealwith the consequences i was trying to enjoy my evening. I just hope he’s found so other people won’t get their night runnied this summer.

Nice to go to a bar that has a bit of an older crowd than we are used to. Seems to be a friend/group hang area for people in their later 20s which was nice. Its not often you find a chill hang out like this without the bustling 21 yr olds or college aged population

I had the chili which could have been spicier for my taste. Also had the tacos, the chicken was better than the beef but both were good. Also had some of my sis in laws shrimp. They were excellent and a good portion.

Review №51

Disappointing experience. Went in on a Friday night around midnight. Two friends we were with were let in no problem. However, we were stopped by Mr. Dwayne The Rockford Johnson at the door and he informed me that I would have to step back outside and put my hat in the car, as they do not allow hats inside. Keep in mind, it was pouring rain.I had no problem following policy and marched back to my vehicle and put my hat in the car. Upon entering, I see NUMEROUS individuals wearing the same style of hat that I was wearing. Im not sure what was in his protein shake that night, but it left a disappointing feeling for the remainder of the evening. Will not be back. And thats fax jax.Please retrain your employees.

Service was awful. Food was mediocre at best. Baked potatoes were not fully cooked. We were going to send them back, but the service was so spotty that we didnt even consider taking the time. They were out of one thing we really enjoy - the cheesy potatoes. Boo. Other visits have been good. But tonight? Not their night. Hope they can live up to the write up in the paper.

I am here right now as I am writing. There is a group here and Jax was told about it weeks ago. The waitress is a complete failure. She screwed up one of our orders and everyone has eaten and she still hasn’t got her food. Finally told her to cancel her order. I asked for a box for half my wrap. She never brought it and than started to take my plate away. Told her no I want to take it and I want a box. They need to have experienced workers when there is. Group. We won’t be back for sure.

Terrible service from a waitress with a bad attitude. Fish fry was not cooked fully when it eventually got to the table, neither was the second order when it finally got there. Waited 20 min for a box to take it home and cook it myself, then the waitress threw the check on the table on her way by. If you want decent fish, go get a fillet - o - fish; they will at least cook it. Needless to say, will NEVER eat here again.

This used to be one of my favorite places with really good food. Now, it has servers and managers that argue with customers and charge for food that was inedible. The charge was put on my card 2 days AFTER being there, I had to contact the bank to contest it. If you go there and use a credit card, check your statement. Rudeness and dishonesty are intolerable.

Great pizza, for a bar in Rockford. Crappy liquor and beer selection, average prices. Plenty of jocks in t-shirts, hats, and similar tacky fan apparel, therefore I guess I shouldnt expect anything too stop shelf from this place. Thankfully the pizza is decent. Its not as good as going to a real pizza place in Rockford, but it would be hard to find better bar pizza in Rockford without instead drinking at a restaurant.

We continue to try and give this place a shot. However, when they have managers that are barely old enough to drink and when you have some issues, they dont handle the complaint well. When a server walks out of the kitchen chomping on food, you tend to loose your appetite.

We were really impressed with the food and the service we received this Sunday during our family lunch. We ordered as appetizers some wings and a big nacho platter with all the fixings. Everything came hot and fresh and way above average for bar food.Each one of us had ordered something different. The Rueben was amazing! Freshly shaved corn beef. My wife had the all you can eat Walleye fish filets which was huge portions, hand battered, fresh, very tasty.... We will be back to eat again it was that good! I want to try the hand battered pork tenderloin sandwich.They may have one of the most impressive beer menus in the ntire city of Rockford. Usually the craft beer lists all kinda look the same at all the local places. Not at JAXs! Game changer for me.... See ya again soon!

This place sucks. It is packed loud and looking to take your money and kick you out for no reason, if you go here it should just be to watch the game for an hour.
