Marina.
Every day,
from noon.

On La Dársena Levante, in the middle of the marina. Ribs, brisket and burgers from midday until half twelve at night — and a terrace that fills up the moment the lamps come on.

01The place

In the
middle of
the marina.

Puerto Marina is a holiday harbour — white walls, blue water, boats, and people with nowhere in particular to be. Jack's sits right in it.

Inside it's brick, warm light and red leather. Outside it's a wide terrace under the awnings that runs straight down to the water. Lunch starts at midday and rarely finishes when people said it would; by evening the heaters are on, the terrace is full and the kitchen is still sending out ribs.

02The food

Big plates.
Bold flavours.
Zero
apologies.

Fall-off-the-bone ribs in honey barbecue sauce. Eight-hour Wagyu brisket. Burgers built tall enough to cause structural concern. Fajitas you hear before you see. And a pizza oven for whoever at the table refuses to commit.

03Inside

Long lunches
that turn into
long evenings.

The dining room is brick walls, gilt frames, bulb lights and red leather — warm, noisy, a bit chaotic when it's full, which is most of the time. There are booths for six, long tables for fourteen, and a bar that has never once believed anyone who said "just one".
