A favorite among the Downtown crowd for business lunches and intimate dinners, Jackson's has received the Florida Trend Golden Spoon Hall of Fame Award for its superb steaks and local seafood. The setting’s not bad, either—housed in an 1860s-era mercantile building, the restaurant overlooks Plaza Ferdinand, where the American flag was first raised in Pensacola.

Across the bridge in the downtown Pensacola area are McGuires, Jacksons, Mr. Manatees and Seville Quarter. Jacksons is very upscale (not kid friendly) but Seville Quarter, Mr. Manatees, and McGuires are. (McGuires is rated one of the top 200 restaurants in Florida.)

In addition to the standard lunch and dinner menus, an Easter special developed by Jackson’s Executive Chef Irv Miller will be available for each service. Lunch special: Country Ham Benedict made with an English muffin, country ham, poached eggs, hollandaise, balsamic bacon jam, rosemary and garlic-smashed fingerling potatoes, and grilled asparagus. Dinner special: Double-cut lamb chops featuring open-fired New Zealand lamb smeared with roasted garlic, Montchevre goat cheese, tapenade, blistered baby heirloom tomatoes, demi-glace, rosemary and garlic-smashed fingerling potatoes grilled asparagus.

If you want to splurge on one of the best places to eat in Pensacola, you can’t go wrong with the steaks, chops, and lobster served at Jackson’s Steakhouse. The restaurant’s refined interiors and high ceilings date back to the 1860s, so dress up to the nines and get ready for a delicious dinner – you’ll find out for yourself why it’s considered one of Florida’s top 25 restaurants. Start your meal with the delicious French Onion Soup or Lamb Lollipops made with parmesan garlic sauce and shaved brussel sprouts.

A walk along the tree-lined street reveals clusters of colorful umbrellas and outdoor seating. The low murmur of conversation, the clink of glasses as a toast is raised and wafting culinary aromas complete the sensory tour. Along Palafox, relaxed, informal restaurants include sports programming complexes and the quirky California-style outdoor eatery al Fresco, which creates a retro 1950s feel with small Airstream trailers.

Located in the heart of Downtown Pensacola, Jackson’s is known for its long-loved classics, like Filet Mignon Oscar and Red Snapper Meunière, but the eatery also changes up its menu seasonally. The 2018 spring dinner menu includes a hickory-fired petite filet with fried green tomatoes and lump blue crab as well as pan-seared dry-packed sea scallops with watermelon salsa fresca, corn, avocado, tortilla chips and achiote oil.

Rich in history and flavor, Jackson’s Steakhouse is housed on the ground floor of a revitalized 1860s-era building overlooking Plaza Ferdinand, where a bust of Andrew Jackson stands. General Andrew Jackson accepted the transfer for the United States of Florida from Spain at the Plaza in 1821. The restaurant is named after Jackson, and a re-creation of his signature serves as the logo and theme of the restaurant.

For those who like their meals with a side of history, Jackson’s Steakhouse has been serving up prime cuts in Pensacola’s historic downtown for decades.
