| - Wandering around the Willowdale area one Friday night my boyfriend and I decided to check out Jackson City - we had passed by it countless times but never had the chance to check it out.
Jackson City has a typical sports bar/restaurant set up - though there are TVs in every single individual booth which you don't see in all sports bars and I thought that was quite neat.
Our server, while she seemed a bit scattered, was super sweet and friendly. We found the customer service to be exceptional.
The food was a bit of a mixed bag for us, we had:
Deep Fried Pickles: My favvvourite bar/pub food. These, sadly, weren't cooked enough and were soggy and the breading was falling off. It came with a bacon onion dip that we found a bit heavy.
Bacon Cheeseburger: Dry. Medicore.
Honey BBQ Wings: Wowww. These were the saving grace of the meal. These are some kick ass wings. Nice and crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and the honey bbq sauce was flavourful, and they weren't stingy with it at all. I'd come back and grab some of these babies for take out, for sure. There was also a deal going on where if you ordered a pound of wings, you'd get an extra half pound for free - score!
I had a banana popsicle martini and it was strong, well prepared and delicious. Nice if you're looking for something fruity. They also have some good drink specials throughout the week.
The other clientele was... interesting? To say the least? A weird mix of some old cougars hanging out with young people, and just some general drunks. Not really my crowd, so I think would probably deter me from coming back going forward.
