Jacko
Jacko Review
If ever there was a beloved eating place in Haifa, Jacko is it. Give the name to your taxi driver, he'll nod approvingly, gun the motor, and drop you at a nondescript building with a Hebrew sign. Since 1976, this family-run restaurant has been serving delicious food in a rowdy, informal setting with shared tables. The specialties here are fish and seafood served grilled or fried. There are piles of crab, mussels, and calamari served with a variety of sauces, large shrimp grilled in their shells, and Mediterranean lobster (in summer). For dessert try the Turkish cookies or semolina and coconut cake.
