Jack Gibbons Gardens all about traditions, not trends<br />
Jack Gibbons Gardens<br />
does not follow trends.<br />
Diners are not going<br />
to witness Happy Hours<br />
or Margarita Mondays at<br />
Jack Gibbons.<br />
That is because Jack<br />
Gibbons focuses on what<br />
really matters: great food<br />
and even better company.<br />
The restaurant reportedly<br />
has customers who say<br />
they have not been there<br />
for 25-30 years but come<br />
back and it is just the way<br />
they remember it.<br />
Jack Gibbons Gardens<br />
— or Gibbons, as the<br />
regulars call it — opened<br />
in 1922 as a speakeasy.<br />
Although times have<br />
changed drastically since<br />
then, the restaurant itself<br />
has not. From the<br />
red leather booths to the<br />
wood-paneled walls, Jack<br />
Gibbons is truly timeless.<br />
In a time where chain<br />
restaurants are on every<br />
corner, Gibbons has become<br />
even more special<br />
and unique. From the second<br />
a diner sits and is instantly<br />
delivered delicious<br />
warm bread, three-bean<br />
salad and coleslaw, before<br />
even a glance at the menu,<br />
it is easy to know one is<br />
about to have one of the<br />
best meals of his or her<br />
life. From surf and turf to<br />
fried chicken, Gibbons has<br />
something to satisfy any<br />
craving.<br />
Gibbons has been described<br />
as a “generational<br />
place” that sees everyone<br />
from grandfathers and fathers<br />
to their grandchildren<br />
who dine there.<br />
A secret to that success<br />
is that the restaurant’s staff<br />
does not experience the<br />
type of turnover seen in<br />
some chain restaurants. Its<br />
employees have worked<br />
there for years, striving<br />
for a “Cheers” vibe<br />
with which the bartender<br />
knows the customers,<br />
what they’re having, and<br />
the friends they bring with<br />
them.<br />
