Sailor Jack’s is the top restaurant in Benicia for seafood served with California flair. Located on the scenic Carquinez Straits, our seasonally changing menu offers something for everyone at breakfast, lunch, weekend brunch and dinner. Named for author Jack London who lived nearby and loved the area, our menu is naturally complimented by a carefully curated selection of great wines and signature cocktails also available in our comfortable upstairs bar. Located in a historic (circa 1868) sea captain’s home, the waterfront view setting is unique in Contra Costa, offering two floors and several charming rooms (plus outdoor deck and patio) where you can enjoy an intimate date for 2, a meal out with friends, or a major family celebration.

A group of City Clerks meet here for lunch off and on, and Jack's never disappoints!

Very good food. Beware they close during the week at 7:30. We had 6:30 reservations (why they allow that is a mystery) so we had to endure the lack of service and noise of closing the restaurant while attempting to enjoy the quality food they had prepared. The small space was occupied by a very large group that was extremely loud and clueless that anyone besides their group was present, they were obnoxious! So disappointed as the food was very good and the environment just the opposite. The staff also appeared to be clueless on what a poor environment they allowed to persist and contributed to. First and last time to experience Salor Jacks!

Delicious petrale sole. Friends always love their fish and chips, too. Good cocktails. Good service. Brussels sprouts way too lemony. Decent creme brulee, not amazing. Overall a fantastic location and pleasant dining experience. We will definitely return.

Wonderful beet salad and moules/frittes were great but portion size precluded considering dessert. Outstanding meal with a new IPA to finish.👏👏👏

They did not save the table I asked for and did not ask me about our Celebration. Service was a little slow for the few number of people that were there. But the food was good and the view lovely.

We really love this place: food, service and location are great. My only small problem is that if you choose to sit outside especially near the "windows ", the tables are set on dirt which if you're wearing sandals or flip-flops like my girlfriend, your feet can get a bit dirty.
