We recently moved back to the area and have been looking for some good local joints for us to become regulars. I can say, without a doubt, that we've found our place at Jake's. We've only been there on two occasions, but we will be going back many more times. Let me describe both that were wonderful.
Visit One: Brunch after church. I had the Corned Beef Hash, which is made there. It was delicious, and I enjoyed every bite. The amazing part, however, was that my wife actually loved the sausage gravy. She's quite a gravy snob, and this was literally the first place I've been to with her where she actually approved of the sausage gravy that was not the place she grew up going to. This alone is proof this place is awesome.
Visit Two: Lent Fish Friday. My wife had the perch. Loved it. I had the Walleye Milanese. Holy cow, I will dream about that fish! Highly recommended.
Overall we love this place. You may, too. If you're on the fence, give it a try; maybe you'll be lucky and love it like we do.
