food is superb... service is spectacular!. i made a trip recently to monterey jack's and the food was as good and plentiful as ever. i'd really like to comment on the server, miguel. once seated, i was greeted by miguel instantly who took my drink order and brought it to my table within a minute. he saw that i was reviewing the menu and didn't hover while i was making my choice. he returned to my table, took my order and saw that i had finished a bowl of queso. he brought another bowl without hesitation along with corn and flour tortillas. my meal arrived quickly and he asked if i needed anything else. i needed more salsa and miguel returned and brought another bowl of salsa within 15 seconds.
my drink was refilled just as it was getting low and this tells me that miguel was keeping an eye on what i needed. he treated me as if i was his only customer of the night. his focus was on providing excellent service and he accomplished his mission.
i was completely impressed with miguel. i've received good service at restaurants before, but rarely as good as this. he has what it takes to work in the restaurant industry and monterey jack's has an asset here they need to hold onto. miguel could go anywhere and be a success.

jack isbackon track!. how can you keep a good thing down? you can't and that's why monterey jack's has returned to the midwest city location it once occupied.
a refreshening of the interior greets customers with a lively south of the border flair and the food is still the same great offerings you remember from the original monterey jacks! authentic tortillas, real cheese, awesome chili and delicious spicy ground beef are just a few of the incredible items you'll remember from jack's (or if you're just trying them for the first time, you're in for a wonderful surprise).
the restaurant is family-friendly and can accommodate any size group from just one person to an entire office party or more. the bar is located on the opposite side of the dining area so you can still dine in a nice quiet atmosphere without being disturbed by any patrons who might get a little loud during football season.
so, gobackto jack's if you've been there before or try them for the first time if you're new. you'll be glad you did!
