Jack’s Southern Comfort Food Offers Down Home Cookin’ and More!

Blog· Food and Drinks

You know those days that you just want some down home cooking? I’ve tried to find the perfect southern biscuits, pot pies, and homemade chili from any ordinary restaurant but it just doesn’t cut it.

Scott Jones, legendary Dallas restaurateur, and his sister Sandy Jones have opened a restaurant that you will all crave and can’t get enough of. Jack’s Southern Comfort Food is the perfect combination of your grandma’s house, southern food, and that homey feeling. When entering Jack’s Southern Comfort you automatically get the feeling of warmth, all prejudices are left at the door while dining in this quaint restaurant off of Greenville Aveune.

Here is a peek into Jack’s Southern Comfort Food.

No flowers here, instead you will find green onions in mason jars as your center piece. Dr. Pepper served in a bottle? I’ll take it any and every day.

Skip the bread, we had deviled eggs for our starter. Jack’s deviled eggs are made with cage-free organic jumbo Texas eggs with Chef T’s blue plate stuffing.

The weather is getting cooler and brisket chili was the perfect meal. Brisket chili is served on jalapeno cheddar cornbread.

A staple in most families is chicken pot pie, but have you upside down chicken pot pie? Jack’s pot pies are made with  farm fresh vegetables folded into rich bechamel with your choice of meat (chicken, pork & green chile, braised brisket, crawfish or truffle mushroom) and ladled over hot buttermilk biscuits.

Like most people, I had to try the mac n cheese. Large noodles with the perfect amount of cheese, made this savory mac n’ cheese a must try.

 

Not only was did Jack’s Southern Comfort Food prove to have sheer southern touch, the decorations and scenery added the feeling of being at home. You will find food served on mix match vintage plates, antique table linens at each table, deviled egg plates that line the wall, and homemade chocolate cookies on the counter for you to grab at any time.

Waitresses and Waiters wear homemade aprons that Sandy Jones’ daughter makes by hand. These aprons are sold at the restaurant and a portion of the proceeds benefit The Bridge Breast Network,  a non-profit that saves lives by linking low income, uninsured individuals to diagnostic and treatment services for breast cancer. Jack’s is asking customers to “donate their dukes” (as in Daisy!) – giving their old jeans and jean skirts to turn them into hope for those battling breast cancer. Everyone who donates gets a coupon for a free Over the Moon Pie.

One complaint with good ole southern food, is that it will leave you feeling overly full and known to put you into a food coma but after my meal at Jack’s I didn’t feel that way.Jack’s Southern Comfort Food is a great addition to Lower Greenville. When you get that feeling for some down home food but can’t make it to grandma’s house, head over to Jack’s Southern Comfort Food.

Jack’s Southern Comfort Food is located at 1905 Greenville Avenue, off Dallas’s well-loved lower Greenville area.  Hours are Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.; Saturday from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.; and Sunday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.  More information can be found online at www.jackssoutherncomfortfood.com

One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesse One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesses adapting and making things work! I was recently introduced to @savageburritos and I'm in love.  Savage Burritos is the love child of Uncle Julios so it you like UJ, you'll love Savage.  They are a delivery only service offering burritos and bowls from select Uncle Julio kitchens in DFW. We ordered a variety of items from burritos, bowls, queso and more. Every single item was bursting with flavor. If you like spicy,  I highly recommend the Nashville Hot Chicken Burrito. 🔥 Don't forget to add on a Margarita pop - nothing beats alcohol and Mexican food delivered straight to your door!

I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️

I wanted to send a quick thank you for all the birthday love yesterday! Birthdays are not my favorite day but it was nice to hear from so many people. Here's to another year around the sun ❤
This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city r This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city ran completely by kids. Your child gets to fully immerse themselves into role playing any job they can imagine. From checking animals at the veterinarian, putting out fires as a firefighter,  flying planes in an simulator, creating their own personal logo with Bic, or being a weatherman at WFAA - the options are endless! Kidzania activities are for ages 4 and up.

We felt very comfortable inside with their safety protocols. Temperatures were checked before entering.  Everybody ages 4 and up must wear a mask.  Hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the entire space.  If you're looking for a fun outlet for your child to explore, check it out!
