This was our 5th and LAST trip to Jackalope. We went for Christmas Eve in spite of lukewarm experiences our last 2 visits. I thought the Christmas Buffet would be fun. Big Mistake! We were seated at 7:15 ontime. Took 15 minutes to get a beverage order in. The food was AWFUL. Prime Rib was RAW on both ends with... more

My wife and daughter planned a surprise birthday party for me in one of the private rooms. I was surprised. There were 24 guests and each person told me and my wife that the food was one of the best meals they had. They raved about the appetizers and most of them had the filet mignon. I have had steaks... more

I live here so have heard from locals that the food was too spicy so didn't go until a club meeting was held there. The food was not too my liking (spicy) and not enough for the price paid; they ran out! And this was a preplanned event so they knew how many were coming. The service is ok. We... more

My husband and I tried this restaurant on a Saturday night around 8 pm. The hostess tried to seat us inside but we asked to sit in the bar area and enjoy the garden area. Took 20 minutes to get menus, another 10 to place our drink order. I ordered a mojito and the waitress stated they do not have... more

Make sure you sit outside next to the waterfalls. 50% off bar menu food and drinks until 7:00pm. Great deal if you make it in time for happy hour. Service is slow so make sure you aren't in a hurry. The atmosphere is excellent! Fun place to go for a birthday or anniversary. more

My wife and I had heard about this new restaurant, Jackalope. When we arrived, we were pleased with the back yard water features, but that was about the last time we were pleased with anything. The waitressess are so in love with themselves that ordering a cocktail always was hit and miss. We like finding new places to go. We... more

So either the grand opening faltered because the cook and the best serving staff were not yet in place or the competition gave it bad reviews. I read the poor reviews, went anyway and was happily surprised!!!! Happy hour appetizers were tasty, drinks good size, prices excellent, service average to good....they were very busy. Been back twice more for happy... more

Like many. I was very excited and anxiously waiting the opening of Jackalope Ranch and when it finally did it was pretty busy but I noticed it got less and less busy so I finally tried it. I took my Boss there and I was pretty embarassed. The Server was too busy looking around the corner to make any eye... more

We stumbled up on this place, and were totally wowed by all the work that went into the design and building. It is gorgeous, with spectacular waterfalls and grounds out back. Patio dining is a real treat. We ate indoors, however, since the patio was full, and still had a good experience. Service was fine, but food was definitely not... more
