C-J has good things to say about Jackson's Seafood.

Apologies for missing Marty Rosen's September 11 Courier-Journal review of Jackson's Seafood, which is located at 400 West Main Street in New Albany. It's in the building that recently housed the defunct Orchid, and long before that was known by generations of New Albanians as Kerstein's Tavern. Trust me -- they wouldn't recognize it now after roughly a third remodeling since the decade dawned.

Marty has good things to say, and begins by comparing the Jackson's experience to Clarksville Seafood Restaurant, where the owner learned his trade.
Jackson's Seafood is fit to be tried

Jackson's Seafood seems destined to be just as popular. Even in these early days, it's not unusual to find the parking lot overflowing, all the tables full, a line of people waiting to order at the counter and a row of people sitting against the wall waiting for to-go orders. It's all to the good then, that staff are quick, knowledgeable and, from their easy smiles, happy to be dealing with lots of customers.

That article came out on the day of the home tour and we had a number of people who came across the river with the article cut out asking where Jackson's was. While I know that Louisville isn't our target audience...it's still good to get the word out to a larger audience.

Golly, I hope Daniel S doesn't read that!

we went in June for an ESNA social and were pleasantly surprised at both the food and the crowd!

I miss the Orchid, but am glad something is taking it's place that's successful!
