Definitely order the alligator cheescake, one of the most interesting and delicious things I have had. The portions are huge and the food is very good. Very casual place in an interesting old house.

Oh my goodness - what a wonderful restaurant!!!! Fabulous food - great service - funky, fun atmosphere!!! I ate here on a Monday night - we arrived around 6:30pm and had to wait 10-15 minutes. Jacques-Imo's doesn't take reservations for parties under 5; there were 4 of us. No worries, we got a round of watermelon mojitos. You enter the... More

Not the easiest location to find but the trip there is worth the effort. The atmosphere is fun and the food is good. One must go to the Maple Leaf next door to fully complete a great experience.

There is always a wait there and they don't take reservations for small groups. The bar area in which you wait (you can also try to nab... More

We started with the alligator cheesecake appetizer and split between the 4 of us there was plenty to go around. And they started us with the MOST amazing corn bread muffins. Worth the... More

I Love, Love, Love Jacques-Imo's and I will tell you exactly why... Since parties of 4 or under are seated on a first come, first serve basis, my boyfriend and I decided to arrive around 8pm and figured it would be quiet since it was a Tuesday night.
