    Once again, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving Dinner at Jake's Famous Crawfish. We come her often for dinner and it never disappoints us. Food and service is consistently good. Our server, Charlotte, remembered us from a previous visits and again, did a fabulous job in taking care of us, as well as others, as I observed.

    Trying to figure out how the same kitchen can produce absolutely perfectly cooked pan-seared oysters (probably the best I've ever had) but also cook the almost inedible Dungeness crab and bay shrimp crab cakes (definitely the worst I've ever had). Take it off your Seafood Specialties menu. This is not a dish you would want to be known for.

    I have been coming to Jake’s since 1984 when I lived in town and when I visit… I don’t know how, but somehow, it’s still the same wonderful vintage yesterday year elegant restaurant. It has always been in the food remains superb. The service is impeccable. The Landry’s corporation has done a great job in allowing Jake’s to retain its unique and distinct personality.
