For nearly a century, Jack?s has been an integral part of Albany?s landscape. Long considered the hot spot for politicians and the famous, Jack?s ambiance is reminiscent of the clubby New York style restaurants so in vogue today.Opened in 1913 by Jack Rosenstein, the restaurant has been continuously operated by the same family and is now under the direction of grandson, Brad. In his pursuit of excellence, Brad persuaded Certified Master Chef Dale Miller, one of only 60 in the United States, to combine their talents to create the ultimate dining experience. In their dedication to the tradition of Jack?s, they have developed a menu to satisfy their faithful clientele as well as delight a new generation of Jack?s customers. Chef Miller?s exciting and unique cooking style, along with our staffs' warmth and hospitality, will make for many memorable dining moments.

Love it
By pjgb41 on 08/10/2007
We first went to Jack's over 30 years ago. New in town, starving, didn't realize it was upscale. Walked in looking like scrounges with two small kids in tow. They didn't blink an eye. Treated us like visiting royalty. Service is almost always 5 star. Food quality dipped for a time until the former owner of Stone Ends became head chef. It he's on the night you're there, there's no finer. Clams casino are to die for. Food portions are not exaggerated but certainly adequate. Prices strike me as very reasonable for this quality. The place is noisy but that flaw I'll overlook. Bonus is an occasional glimpse of someone really interesting - i.e., semi famous in our area.

I have heard from friends that if your going downtown - go to Jacks. I will never listen to my friends again. I can't believe so many people like this place. Extremely noisy dinning room. Tiny portions. Overall Very Dissapointed!!
