Seafood place in Bloomfield Avenue in Montclair. Food is excellent and a lot to choose from. Since I love seafood I have no issue but they have hamburger so a meat eaters won’t have issue. They have a full range of seafood starting from oysters, crabs to lobster. I love this place and will be back many more times.

We got the lobster bomb and it was delicious and creamy but super heavy especially with the bisque soaked bread.

Food was amazing, but the service lacked. We were sat immediately upon entrance, but no server came to our table for 15 minutes. We watched those around us be served, and finally we were approached. As I mentioned the food was amazing, but the overall experience was ruined due to this. We would try another of the locations to see if service was better, but will not return to this one.

Went for takeout yesterday, first time in the place. Location is good with ample parking, but I was unsure about the “free” parking at the museum across the way, since the sign said permit parking only, so we parked in the street in front of the adjacent apartment building.

It’s not cheap, but my family and I were super pleased with our seafood at Jack’s.

Always great for a lobster craving! We came for a late lunch/early dinner on a Sunday. Service was excellent. A+++. Our server was so attentive, prompt, polite, helpful. The tables are on the smaller side if you’re getting several things so we appreciated that he asked if he could bring out the next courses when they were ready. We got a house salad (the dressing is excellent – perfectly light and acidic, really fresh greens), peel & eat shrimp, Maine lobster roll w/ fries subbed, and the lobster dinner with a side of New England clam chowder. Parking is always free across the street at the museum. A Montclair staple in my opinion.

Love the fried clams a bit peppery but still loved them. Now for the lobster bisque, excellent flavor and consistency but need to omit the fake seafood in it don’t add it in just leave the little bit of real lobster in it.
