Jax Bistro & Bar

"Written by Marty n I. East of the Berlin Wall " Seldom will I take the time to write a negative review but tonight's visit to Jax's Bistro and Bar warranted just this. We arrived early to a friendly greeting and a quick seating by the attractive hostess who provided us with 3 menus and stated and I quote, " happy hour menu is served until 6 in the dining room (12 tables ) and 7 in the bar area (aprx 9 tables)" mind you in this small Bistro the bar and restaurant are divided by a 4' wall. Our waitress was pleasant, took our drink order off the happy hour menu and returned shortly thereafter to drop our drinks and take our food order . The bar bite happy hour menu was what we wanted but were quickly informed that this menu was served only on the west side of the wall, which was arms length from our table. In looking at their dinner menu we Noticed the same roast beef sliders on this menu which was $5.00 more then the bar menu so of course we just ordered off that and were informed that we would get 3 sliders versus the bar menu I sliders which was only two Relatively reasonable right So I order the fish tacos Same deal $5.00 more when ordering off the dinner menu again. Two served on the bar Menu and wait 2 served on the dinner menu makes sense right? Not! Then the brussel sprouts which simply were $5.00 more for the privilege of sitting east of the wall. Nothing made any sense . The tacos were so salty I ate one and left the other, the chocolate martini was null of liquor and the house Pinot noir was the worst I ever tasted to the point it may have been a bad bottle Need I say more . We won't return !"

"Always amazing service, food and atmosphere! Everything from the hamburgers to the salads and the drinks are delicious"

"If you are on Jog Road in Boynton Beach, you have to make a stop in this little quant restaurant that has everything on the menu, and the cooks in the back are just amazing. Gabriella, our server is wonderful. Don't let the tattoos scare you away as she is one of the friends and kindest staff members I have met in some time. With a big smile and knows lots about the menu, she made some yummy suggestions. Staff members have to be patient as the night we were there it was a retired crowed. This is a family owned local joint with a nice small bar area and dinner area. they have some great early bird specials, and the regular menu is priced right. Nice size portions. At our table (forgot to take pics), linguine and clams. A very nice size portion and baby back ribs that were made with their homemade sauce, and they fell off the bone. There was no room for dessert but would have lived something as all was delicious! If you get a chance to stop in to this yummy restaurant, make sure you say hello to Lorretta, the hostess. She is in her 90-plus years and runs circles around the rest of the staff."

"Absolutely delish! We had the Mahi Tacos and the Fish Sandwich! The sandwich was huge and the coating was so flavorful. The Tacos had large pieces of blacken mahi and a wonderful mango salsa. We ate it all! Max our server is wonderful! Great outside seating as well! Highly recommend!"

"We were heading to a restaurant nearby but that one was packed with a wait, so we stopped by here. Great and happy accident! Everything was fantastic! We sat outside in the shade at a private table. Fabian made great suggestions and we enjoyed our Ruben and French dip. The fries are the best kind, crunchy outside, tender and moist inside. There are a few dishes we want to try from the unique menu, so we will be back! Give them a try! Highly recommended!"
