    Tasty lunch

    Really enjoyed our lunch at Jack’s. Hotdogs were available for the kids. I enjoyed a salmon sandwich that was very good. Seemed to be lots of locals in the restaurant who were regulars - always a good sign.

    Nice place with good burgers

    Nice place with very friendly service. Burgers were great, french fries as well. The serve veggie burger with black bean patty, which my wife and daughter liked a lot. A bit pricey for the value.

    Burgers and shakes

    Lots of people love their burgers and shakes. Very limited parking - you may end up walking from the CalTrain parking lot on a Friday night.

    Top Of The Line Burgers

    One of the best on the Peninsula ... grandiose burgers with large choice of toppings. Not fancy dining by any means ... restaurant takes one back to the 70's inside. But alas, it's all about the BURGERS, you won't be disappointed.

    I ate at Jack's while visiting San Mateo for a few days. I was a little disappointed in the cleanliness of the establishment when I walked in, but ordered anyway. I believe the burgers were supposed to be cooked to order, but I received mine...More
