I ordered a chicken sandwich. Not sure the name of it. It was on a brioche bun with an egg, bacon, cheese and fried chicken breast. It came to the table steaming hot. It was the best sandwich I have ever had. I have dreamed about it since I left. I can't wait to come back for another one!! The staff and owner was friendly! Great experience!

Very underwhelming and on the pricey side for breakfast. Staff is very friendly and does check in alot. French toast and pancakes are good. Bacon was very rubbery and not good. The eggs are horrible, for people that eat eggs everyday we couldn't even eat half of these they were that bad. Bathrooms are not very clean and the toilet seat is broken. Overall when you walk in its a nice atmosphere and staff is nice but the food is not worth the price. We wont be back in sadly. We wanted to have a better experience especially based on all the other reviews but just not what we had.

Fort Jesse has always maintained its quality! I know if I eat here or order to go, I have nothing to worry about. This sandwich was great, I love when I can find a great chicken sandwich. It had a thick piece of chicken on it and the flavor was tasty! I don’t eat here often, but anytime I do, it’s always missed!

Great specials! Had the steak bagel and my friend had the red velvet pancake special. The mimosas are good and strong! I got the chorizo breakfast skillet special last time and it was very good. Busy and popular place.

Every now and again you find a Gem, and this is one of them. Truly a delicious space with their food elevated up a couple levels from the Normal breakfast spots. The service is efficient and friendly. Our server took extra time to explain menu offerings and made a most delicious latte. The food came right on time as it was not too quick and certainly was not long. Overall cleanliness is decent. We will be back. Special kudos to our server who is brilliant and nice and went above and beyond.
