Word on the street
What locals are saying
Little Jack's earned its reputation on the back of a Bon Appétit Best Burger crown — a smashed, griddled onion burger that's still worth ordering, even as prices have climbed from $8 to $15-plus and the patty hasn't grown to match. The mid-century tavern room — checkerboard tablecloths, Sinatra on the speakers, a proper bar program built around Old Fashioneds and Vespers — does the heavy lifting on atmosphere. The garlic-and-herb fries with tavern sauce and the Old Bay shrimp burger are sleeper hits; the portion-size-versus-price argument is the one that follows the place everywhere.
