Pros: Food was great ! And the decor was nice. Lobster roll was great though I wish it had used more traditional bread. Cons:... Waited to be seated while FOUR hostesses stood in front chatting. Finally when 3 of them left then the last asked if I neededhelp. I asked for a table for 3.. she looked confused and seemed bothered she had to seat me.. half the tables in the restaurantwere empty. She then dropped the menus on the table without a word. (apparently not all of the menus as our server had to get usan additional specials menu after realizing we didn’t have it). Our server was nice and attentive but you could tell he hadway too many tables and was all over the place. Drinks took forever to come out and we had our appetizers before putting in ourorder for entrees. I hate eating on top of menus. This place has potential but needs to get a better hold on managingoperations. We left at 8pm and several tables had not been cleaned up after people had left. Not a great look. Read more

The food was absolutely delicious. We both had the Lobster Roll and it was fantastic. Our only concern was the poor hostess. She... was running around, having to seat people, get their drinks, and bring them bread WHILE managing the entire crowds that hadgathered because reservations were overlapping. She did this with poise (kudos to her), but this system seems unfair for oneperson to handle. Read more

Amazing all around! Food staff and service! Chef Michael is wonderful and my waitress Jamie was amazing! Don’t miss the... lobster bisque or lobster rolls! Off the hook for sure Read more

Absolutely amazing experience! Jamie was an attentive and knowledgeable server. My sister and brother in law both came in for... the lobster rolls which were super yummy and full of lobster. My sister in law also enjoyed a nice bowl of lobster bisque. Myhusband and I split the mussels scampi (probably the best mussels I have ever had), fried calamari which was perfectly cookedand crispy just the way we like it and steak tidbits which were by far some of the best we have had. Definitely worth checkingout! We can not wait to come back! Keep up the good work Chef Michael ???? Read more

It was a beautiful warm morning, we chose Jackson Hall American Bar & Grille because they had outside dining in the East Islip... area. The staff was super friendly and the food was delicious! Planning on definitely going back! Thank you! Read more

I was here for a Bridal Shower. The service was surprisingly great and I only say that because of the current staffing... situation. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food too (same reason). Our party morphed into the bar area and thegreat service extended into that area too. I'll recommend this restaurant for your party, your lunch, your dinner or just yourbar visit! Read more

I feel like it had down wholesome food I actually ordered meatloaf and mashed potatoes it was a good serving I could barely... finish it I like the brown sauce the meatloaf is juicy. I thought it was a low pricey but then I saw the size of the dish sothey canceled each other out. Read more
