Jacks is one of the top ten in Melbourne. Seriously. The food is always exquisite and the owner and his staff oh so friendly. I could not count the number of times we have been, and stayed and stayed for their fine food.

This is not very Malaysian at all. The food is overpriced - $25.00 for a seafood curry with a minimal amount of seafood and a lot more vegetables served in a large soup bowl was not good value. I asked for rice- the waiter said he would bring a bowl for the table. The serve was a single serve, and... More

I've eaten at Jacks Satay Bar many times over many years, and I defy ayone to find a better Malaysian restaurant. The food is always brilliant, especially the roty rolls, and the satay prawns. Will go again soon, and I highly recommend.

I had a quick lunch at this restaurant. I had the Nasi Goreng which was quite enjoyable. It was nice as spicy as I asked. There was a good selection of food to choose from. Service was quick as it was quiet at lunch service. The ambiance was also very good.
