“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
