History
In 1863. French-born chef George Voges opened the restaurant at 615 Sacramento Street, and named it Jack's after the jackrabbits that lived nearby.[1] From 1996 until 1998, the building was closed for renovations and a seismic retrofit.[1] The sixth owners were restaurateurs Gus and John Konstin, who re-opened the restaurant in 1998.[1]
In 2002, French-born chef Philippe Jeanty purchased Jack's, later renaming it Jeanty at Jack's,[3][4] and operated it as a brasserie, until it abruptly closed in May 2009.
In June 2016, Bar Works purchased the building for a reported US$3.55 million, announcing plans to convert the location into co-working space, with food and a bar.[5] As of 2022 that had not materialized.
