Jack Dempsey's Restaurant Review: Jack Dempsey’s is housed in a converted Bywater cottage, located close by the Industrial Canal. An “appetizer” of fried okra brings forth enough of these tasty pointed pods for a small family. The "small" fried-seafood platter yields a steep mound of fish, shrimp, oysters, soft-shell crab, stuffed crab, either french fries or baked macaroni and cheese, and a cup of gumbo. Frying is so much the specialty that the menu includes a disclaimer for anything ordered broiled. The lack of a tempting dessert list is a blessing, in fact. But as long as you’ve gone this far, end the meal with a Barq’s root beer float. Bypass the wine list and think beer or cocktails with dinner. Reservations are a no-no, so expect to wait in line on weekends. Dinner closes early, at 8 p.m. during the week and at 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday, so plan accordingly. |
