We look forward to enjoying many more meals at Jake's, whether it be breakfast, lunch or dinner. The chicken fried steak is top sirloin steak, not a hamburger steak like other places. It's smothered in a green chile con queso sauce and it's so delicious! The inside decor is 50's diner nostalgia, plus a jukebox and an arcade version pac-man game.
