| - Such a lovely date night at Jacob's! A very generous friend gave us a gift card, and although neither my hubs or I eat any red meat, we had a delicious dinner eating everything other than their speciality!
We ordered the caeser salad to start, and it was one of the best I've ever had! The cheese popovers were quite good, but not as mind blowing as stated on Yelp by others, IMHO.
We then shared the mushroom risotto, organic chicken, sautéed rapini and potato gratin. What I really appreciated about the dishes was that none of it was over salted by the chefs, and a trio of very interesting salts were given to season ourselves if we wished.
We took desserts to go (pineapple upside down cake and smores cheesecake) as a food coma was setting in quite rapidly, and they were both very tasty.
Our server Kody really elevated our experience here at Jacob's. He was friendly, extremely helpful with orders in a non-bossy way, and his knowledge of alcohol was beyond impressive! It felt like he truly had a passion for it all, and whether it was him just good at his job or indeed true, we ate it right up and loved the service!!!!! He made the place truly a 5 star experience.
Also want to add that for a $$$$ restaurant, wines by the glass and cocktails weren't terribly overpriced!
Thanks for a wonderful night, Jacob's!
