Jacko’s Kan-anan
Home of the Happy Tummies
Authentic Filipino home cooking, served with love… right here in Iligan City.
Why Jacko’s
Lutong-Bahay, Always
Every dish we serve is made fresh, cooked from the heart, and seasoned with the kind of care only a family kitchen can give. Just like home.
16 Years of Happy Tummies
Since 2009, families across Iligan City have been coming back to our table, and we’re proud of every single one of them.
Giving Back to Our Community
Through Jacko’s and Friends, we run gift-giving drives and feeding programs for communities in need. Because a happy tummy shouldn’t stop at our door.
Our Must-Try Dishes
These are the dishes our customers talk about, dream about, and come back for again and again.
Crispy Squid
Golden, crunchy, and impossible to put down. Our Crispy Squid is perfectly seasoned and fried to perfection — the dish that started it all. If you haven’t tried it, you haven’t really been to Jacko’s.
Tuna Belly
Tuna Belly, marinated and grilled over open flame until perfectly charred outside and tender within. Fresh from Mindanao’s waters and packed with flavor, this is what fresh seafood tastes like.
Seafood Bila-o
A feast in a bilao. Our Seafood
Bila-o is a Jacko’s celebration staple: a generous spread of fresh seafood, perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. Perfect for groups and special occasions.
Kare-Kare
Rich, hearty, and deeply satisfying. Tender meat and vegetables slow-cooked in a thick savory peanut sauce, served with bagoong on the side. Classic Filipino comfort food done the Jacko’s way.
About Us
A Family Story, 16 Years in the Making
What started as a humble diner for carwash customers in 2009 has grown into one of Iligan City’s most beloved restaurants. Through typhoons, setbacks, and countless happy meals, Jacko’s has always been here.
We’re not just a restaurant. We’re a family, and every customer who walks through our door becomes part of it.
What Our Happy Tummies Are Saying
“Jacko’s delivered my food in the university during my stay in Iligan, but I was also twice in their restaurant both times for dinner. The restaurant is very inexpensive with a high quality and very enthusiastic service. They are so kind and they really make you feel like home. I am really happy to experience their food, which has a very nice flavour and makes me explore something new of their large variety.”
