Jackson's - Methuen

I can see how the thumb comes to me, to which I will lift. Jackson 's is a wonderful family tradition. One of Dad's favorites. Christmas Eve after Mom and Dad couldn't be hosts anymore. Where we met after we buried my dad. This year I'm with Mom on the father's day - what a better lunch this day? Unfortunately, she's too sick. The fair and the cemetery alone. Stop it. When I arrived at Jackson, there was a crew change from the morning buffet. This is the day of the father. A seat delay due to windowwashing at my assigned Riverview table. After sitting, in an empty (except another table dining room, 15 minutes before a server arrived at my table. Hmm. Food: a ok Merlot, ok Salat w bleu, and a not ok Clams (w bellies, of course!! Scallops Shrimp. I choose peace before all health concerns. If I'm going to be baaad, it's better good. Guess what? Product of a tired kitchen staff. Limpid. My point: Jackson 's is a good restaurant, and you should go and enjoy. I have countless times; my rating would be solid 4 's on any other experience. Oh, my dessert was an hour to negotiate a parade and tried to drive back to Mom. It was just a bad day, Jeanne. (Aktuary, she didn't hate Point II: Restaurants shouldn't have a bad day. Short-term and long-term staff regardless. We're not personal. Nevertheless... lick your wounds and go on. We're all in the same pot as long as nobody sleeps over us... Jackson is a good restaurant. This is the most forgiven review I have ever written. I'm sure it won't happen again. Jackson 's: ditto.
