Jax Grill

The Scene – The restaurant is fairly spacious, with a huge outdoor patio and an expansive indoor section with a dance floor. Cajun food is the specialty of the house. Aside from serving food and spirits, Jax doubles as one of the city's top zydeco haunts.

Burgers are also a main course,…

a place to shake your bones

by jannetyork

Derick and I dont get a chance to get out much. Our neighbors told us about this place and we stopped by one evening. Was not too crowed and great atmosphere. Nice music if that is your style. Had a marvelous time and will return once my feet are no longer swollen :)

A Wonderful Food Place

by Cissy51

This was a wonderful place to let your hair down and have some fun. Their drinks was not as good as I thought they would be but the music and great tasting food made up for it.

Not worth it!

They forgot my order. I got it 30 minutes after the rest of my party ate. When I inquired, they lost the ticket. They didn't seem to care. The food was below par and not worth wasting your time. Its very rare that I say it but the McDonald's in El Salvador is a better choice. This place sucks and the people are rude.

Quick Service, Yummy Food

I particularly enjoyed the chicken fried steak...tender inside with a "just right" batter crunch. And wow...the food was prepared quickly.
