March 30th, I’d gone over to Jack Astor’s with my mother and sister for dinner! Stepping into the restaurant you’re instantly greeted with a casually fancy dining setting, with an assortment of jokes in paintings, and framed up on the wall. The atmosphere is loud and lively, with the dining on one half of the building and the bar on the other, a restaurant for many different kinds of people.

Jack’s serves many different kinds of foods, but their biggest hits are their burgers and pasta dishes! Depending on where you’re seated, chances are you’re going to find your table is a nice polished wood, with comfortable chairs and plenty of elbow room! The smell of the restaurant is good food, but there’s a hint of alcohol coming from the bar side of the building.

My meal, the chicken Parmesan, was served hot and in a large portion, but not too large! Many of Jack’s dishes are like these. This meal is my go-to everytime! The chicken is perfectly soft and falls apart in your mouth, the noodles are cooked perfectly, and the small bits of chopped garlic give it an amazing kick! I wish I had the recipe to recreate it at home!
