First time Loved the food and staff we will be back. Reasonably Priced Menu Ribs were the best. Joe A

This bar has the look of a no frills sports bar but the food is definitely top notch. Everyone in my party had really good food but the best thing we had was the Chicken Skewers. I normally would have taken a pic of the food but when it came out, I honestly wasn't thrilled because it looked like they were going for a deconstructed look and it wasn't what I was expecting. The saving grace was that it was large portions for an appetizer. BUT.... The food was seasoned and cooked to perfection. I normally do not eat chicken breast but what I was served was very juicy and flavorful. I was half way through my plate when I realized I should have taken a pic. Everything else I had was good but those skewers is what will bring me back for sure. I'll add photos next time!

This place was awesome! The rib tip special on Fridays was on point! I also had the wings. They were meaty and not messy with sauce. Also, they were not those mini wings some places serve. All of the food was piping hot and delicious. If I we're ever in the area again, I would not hesitate to get a meal from them. I loved the many assortment of neon signs hanging throughout the establishment.

First time there today -- went for the Bear's game. The game could have been better, but JL's is a nice spot. Good Pizza, attentive service (thanks Julianne), affordable prices and great game day atmosphere.
