    Couldn't have been more pleased with our dining experience. The vibe felt good and definitely a Boomer crowd for the most part, of which my sister and I are included. High energy though. We had friendly service on top of making sure our drinks were replenished. I ordered a martini from their cocktail menu, berry of some sort, and it was lovely. My sister had a Reuben and, while she doesn't order them all the time, she thinks it's the best she can remember ever having. I ordered a cup of the soup of the day, a chicken sausage gumbo. Very filling, fresh tasting, and perfect spice/heat level for me, which is not too much. So flavorful! It really filled me up before my French dip arrived. The French dip was also yummy! Tender meat with a not-too-salty Au jus. The bread was crunchy even after dipping it. I took more than half home for lunch. Yay, 2 meals! I felt my drink was reasonably priced at $12. The Reuben-$14 and French dip $16. Totally worth every sip and bite! We both agree we're putting Daddy Jack's on the schedule for another upcoming sister date night.
