I just went for beer.. and only beer.. and 1 Small piece of calamari, a friend ordered. It was very greasy. I like jack Astors but I'm not a big fan of the food. I still do think the saucy marinated steak and shrimp and buffalo chicken wings and steak fahitas are the best things on the menu, that I personally recommend. We sat right in front of the bar, so the bartender was fast and non pretentious friendly.
