BoomerJacks Restaurant Review

BoomerJacks is a popular sports bar. Wall to wall TVs for watching sports. Dog friendly outdoor patio, with oversized fans, fire pit and heaters. Service friendly. Atmosphere inviting. I would go back. Reasonable price. I had fried catfish and french fries and coleslaw. The coleslaw was dry. It's like they took coleslaw out of the bag and placed in tiny bowl. The rest of the food was good. He had chicken tenders and fries. My baby girl had few fries with no salt. 

I give it 7 out of 10.

Until next time,
