Overall, at Jack Astor's the reviews portray a lively, family-friendly spot with reliable burgers, chicken, bowls and plenty of portions, and friendly service, though a few visits suffer from mismatched orders, slow checks, or higher prices for dishes that don't stand out. Diners frequently praise the food as tasty and plentiful, with bar vibes and quick drink service during games, while the atmosphere is described as fun and sometimes loud, with holiday decorations that delight families and crayons on the table for kids. The staff are often highlighted as attentive and accommodating, able to navigate dietary needs and explain menu options, yet some reports reference outdated decor and POS issues, language barriers for non French speakers, and occasional order errors. For many, Jack Astor's remains a go-to for casual nights out, birthday celebrations, or catching a game, with plans to return, though a few guests note that portions can feel smaller for the price.
Had such a great time at trivia night last week at Jack Astor's Bar & Grill for the Seinfeld theme night! It was honestly one of the most fun nights out I've had in a while. The whole place had a great energy & the questions were actually really good for fans of Seinfeld.
Trivia happens every Tuesday, & it's quickly becoming our weekly thing because it's such a fun atmosphere. There's even a bit of friendly rivalry with the reigning champ'The Dogfather' who somehow seems to win almost every week the whole room is basically trying to beat him at this point.
I also love that the first Tuesday of every month has a new theme, which keeps it fresh & gives everyone something to look forward to.
On top of the trivia, the food & drinks were great & the staff were fantastic super friendly & really kept the energy going throughout the night.
If you're looking for something fun to do on a Tuesday night, trivia here is definitely worth checking out!
Servi par Eleonore tres bon service tres sympathique,souriante. Une des meilleures serveuses que nous ayons eu tres attentives. Que dire des ailes de poulet juste wow les meilleures
Started off with a very friendly hostess. Our server Abi, was amazing! She helped modify meals & explained the options for my three children. All around a great dinner experience!
We were a very large party, roughly 15 people with kids. Two servers for our group they did really good up until food was finished. All the kids had desserts but nothing was ordered. It took a very long time even when trying to flag him down. Other than that the service & food was excellent

Was there for Super Bowl with friends had nachos , beer, chicken wings.
Outdated menu , outdated decor, outdated pos system needs renovations
Place was not very busy. Not the way I remember it over the past 20 years
Glory days are over
Waiter worked hard to serve us but got screwd by pos system. Added 18% tip but realized only 9% was added after reviewing bill at home
My friends also told me that errors were on tipping
Got compelled to write a review because I find it's too well rated recently compared to what it's worth.
Food is decent/good American food. If you like comfort food & don't care about good ingredients you might be very happy. Otherwise it's not necessarily a great place.
Staff is nice, the atmosphere is nice (fun not pretty) & original but loud.
Always phenomenal service & food here! I placed a takeout order tonight & they made a small mistake in the order so I called & they handled the mistake very promptly & generously
