We are locals and we finally decided to give Jumping Jake's a shot. We, sadly, are regretting our decision. We got a fisherman's platter and the portion size was much smaller than we were expecting. The scallops and haddock were cooked well, but the shrimp tasted frozen. The clams are what really earned the one star review, however. They had not been cleaned and were mushy. We ended up not eating any of them.

The service was disorganized when my wife picked up the food. She had been told by the person on the phone to pick up food at the pick up window but when she got there, the hostess told her to pick up the food at the bar. The bartender then confirmed she really did need to go to the pick up counter, then they grabbed the food and brought it to the bar anyway.

Now we just have to determine if we have time to go to another seafood place to get enough food for the family.
