Always impressed when I dine here. Very friendly and great food
The food was good and the staff is very friendly.
Today was spaghetti day and as I seldom cook it anymore, and we recently discovered Jake's, I was eager to give it a try. It did not disappoint! A large serving of delicious spaghetti with bread, coleslaw and Slap Your Mama Peach Cobbler made my tummy very happy! Service is always very good; friendly and accommodating. Will definitely be back on Thursday night sometime soon!
Local hotspot. Delicious Homemade burgers, not pre-processed/frozen! Daily lunch specials during the week. They have a take-out window to order if not dining in. Friendly staff.
Place was great. Sweet tea was perfect southern taste and the homemade battered potatoes are the choice to make. I've only been twice but I can vouch for the patty melt and hamburger steak with onions and gravy and will make you full and leave you wanting to come back for more the next day.
Enjoyed the Thursday night spaghetti special! All you can eat for 8 (I think)! Food was great, server was very attentive. But carry cash! They don't take cards!!
Jakes Family Restaurant is a unique and quirky representation of almost any small southern town. Yes, they will probably talk about you and likely will poke a little fun, but it just shows how much they like you. They aren’t necessarily keen to newcomers and out-of-towners, but if you return more than twice, you might get to sit at Table #8 to offer the latest news, philosophical approach, or ingenious solution. The people who patronize the restaurant are from all walks of life and represent a cross-section of society and culture. Uniquely situated in a rural area, its decor and “Wall of Local Heroes” gives it charm like no other restaurant. The restaurant doesn’t have a flashy facade or a glamorous sign, but it’s warmth of its people, food, and family set it apart from most. I also enjoy the battered home fries, COB (Chicken on Bun) with special sauce, and a Jake’s Special. I miss the salad bar but love the special weekly event of Thursday Night spaghetti. There’s a beauty about the place and offers a simple perspective of nostalgic reminiscence. Go by and enjoy Jakes. Stay there an hour or two and experience what I shared. Tell Ms. Vivian hello and if you come back a few times, they might invite you to Table #8 to soak in some local philosophy. A great little place with simple charm and quirky decor - Jake’s Family Restaurant.
