In love Jordan's Big Ten Pub. I lived in the Vilas neighborhood for about 5 years and frequented Jordan's often! I'm sure most people think a bar wouldn't have great, quality food but this one does!!!
Their fish fry is very good- not greasy at all! They have taco night (i believe on wednesdays) where you can eat inexpensively and deliciously. Their standard menu is wonderful and there are always unique and tasty specials. I'd also recommend the soup! It is made fresh daily and is always satisfying. The salads at Jordan's are amazing! Often times you order a salad out and it's a bunch of shredded iceberg with a crouton, not here! They use good lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes and tons of other toppings depending on what you ordered. It's not on the menu but I often order a cajun chicken bacon ranch sandwich and it is to die for!
Also, I can't forget to mention the staff! They are really friendly, hard working and attentive (even on the busiest days). If you get Kimmy or Lacy as your server you are extra lucky!!!!
My husband and I have moved away from the area but we still try to make It to Jordan's a couple times a year. We even stopped there after we thought I was going into labor. Luckily it was a false alarm and we got to eat at Jordan's Big 10 Pub...because you can't waste a trip to the Vilas area without stopping there!!!
