Jack’s Shack is always our first stop each and every visit. The location is unmatched, the food is as fresh as it gets and everyone is always so kind and instantly put a smile on your face!
I love the breakfast tacos and watermelon juice.
Definitely a must visit on your trip to the area!

Chilled laid back great food served and cooked from a very chilled fun staff, all are welcome and will enjoy. The food is simple yet very tasty and preferred fresh to order. They accept cash or Venmo only just a heads up! Love the vibe and the food! 6 stars

We had a lovely surf trip last February with friends , which was walking distance from jacks. Food was fresh and portions were perfect. Staff was friendly, and the atmosphere is so laid back and clean .
Perfect place to have lunch after a long morning at the beach .
Can’t wait to be back!

They served mediocre to poor quality food. I do not care about a chill vibe. I wanted a taco with actual fish in it. If you go to Jack's shack, then do drink the juice, which is good. I thought Jack's Shack was VERY expensive considering the meager quantity of fish served in the taco. After reading all the rave reviews, we were sorely dissapointed. Honestly; look at my other reviews. I hardly ever give a negative one!

Super friendly and good vibes. Amazing spot to grab bfast before surfing/beaching. Can see the water from your stool! The bfast tacos were delicious AND affordable and loved the roosters walking around.

Jack's has it all. Awesome food, Fresh juice and coffee.
The view of Pools could not be better. It is worth the wait to catch this place open. I love how the menu and pricing works so you get to connect with the folks working and I can appreciate that they may not be open if there are waves. If you are looking for mainland Chipotle this ain't it....It is way better!

Breakfast Wrap
So good! Super friendly staff, tasty food, and great beach vibe. My fish burrito earlier in the week was so good I had to come back and try a breakfast burrito later on before leaving Rincon. I loved them both. Great selection of juices too, which were all new to me. I recommend the acerola!

No prices are posted, which is always a bad sign. I ordered a fish burrito. The chunk of grouper was about as big as a small sardine. The rather petite burrito featured rice, instead of the listed rice and beans, and lots of cabbage. The guanábana juice was very tasty. Considering that it all cost about $20, I felt cheated. Don't eat here unless you have no transportation to go somewhere that isn't resting on its reputation from past days and ripping off customers in the present.

RE: negative reviews - Gordon/ Susan Shay are out of their minds (as are the other older low reviews).
If the menu doesn’t have prices & you’re being price conscious, ask before you order… why does that need to be explained to anyone?
The fish is caught fresh, some of the ingredients in their tacos can be expensive for them to source, and quite frankly, these are some of, if not THE best fish tacos I’ve ever had. Of course the food isn’t cheap, quality food isn’t cheap.
There’s hardly ever a wait, & if there is take a look around & do some beyond surface level thinking about how you would suggest you would crank that much fresh food out of a food truck run on a generator in a short period of time.
Rincon/ Puntas is a no frills type of laid back beach town. These Karen’s clearly had no idea what they signed up for vacationing here. The people that own/ work for Jacks Shack are good, honest people that have always been extremely kind to us. They’re running a small business & people like this that go out of their way to trash a business because they went in with the wrong expectations are the worst.
I’ve eaten here so many times for breakfast & lunch & quite literally have never taken a bite that wasn’t delicious. 11/10 experience in every way every single time I’ve been there.
