Jax Cafe is a landmark café dating back to the 1930s that has been a beacon of classic dining in Northeastern Minneapolis for more than 80 years. Located on the corner of University Avenue and outfitted with 1960s décor, the family-owned establishment serves an array of classic American cuisine from steaks to seafood in a welcoming setting complete with tuxedo-ed waitstaff. Sunday buffet brunches are always packed with regulars dining on freshly prepared salads, antipasti, and marinated vegetables, made-to-order omelets with various fillings, eggs Benedicts, Italian sausage, and a smorgasbord of carvery meats and roasted vegetables. Griddle specials include made-from-scratch pancakes, French toast, and waffles, and the dessert table heaves with freshly baked pastries, Danishes, muffins and scones, croissants, and cinnamon rolls.
