We have been to Jack's 3 times now and just love it. The food and service is fantastic. Even took our friends from Georgia..that's how great it is. And ..always busy.. good to know that. I hope they will put speakers inside for the entertainment. Next time I will be sure to get a table on deck. Thanks, guys, it's always great

I don't like it, but I would come back.... That's the problem with a little hole in the wale right on the water - It has a great outdoor atmosphere and at night, with the strands of lights, it's the total Salt Life feeling. So yes, for a little karaoke or live music, I will come back. Probably often.

Great service and good food. My wife & I went last Sat. afternoon and had a great time. New owners, new menu, and refurbished digs! This thing my wife noticed was how clean it was. Unfortunately bad reviews have carried over, unfairly, to the new owners. Give it a try; it's got great beach bar feel.

This tiki bar was named after Jack Willie--the son of a rum runner and a pilot for a young Fidel Castro who flew cash crops under the radar. When the feds finally wised up and turned up the heat, Jack Willie had to turn it down under the tiki huts, or so the legend goes.

Jack Willie's has a tiki hut bar outside and wood floors and high top tables inside. Specializing in seafood and colorful...
