    All was good. The only issue was we had a person in a wheelchair and maneuvering through the doors was challenging. The clearance between the inner and outer door was not big enough and the wheelchair prevented the inner door from opening. Our waitress was very good!

    Early New Year's Eve dinner - reservations made & seated right away. Service was great! I didn't see what I wanted on the menu (that I usually see) so I asked about it & was assured that they could do that for me. Salmon was delicious as was the rice. Dinner companion had the soup & 1/2 sandwich & she seemed to enjoy it. Overall a wonderful dining experience, one we can always count on at Daddy Jacks!

    Without a doubt our favorite restaurant on the North Side. Sure wish they were on the south side of Indy. The best Patty Melt in the State.
