I came here this Monday for Restaurant Week lunch. The food was great and the lady at the reception desk was nice. My waiter was OK and was really in a rush ( maybe it was restaurant week). I finished my three course finished with 40 minutes.... But I will definitely come back again and enjoy the food next time!
Several years ago my best friend's partner got a call from my friend's son, Andy, asking what he could possibly get his mother for Christmas. This would be her last Christmas. My friend had recently received a diagnosis of two different cancers and yes, she probably would not make it another year. Her partner was lost for an answer until Andy asked. "Well, what does my mother miss doing the most now?" "Oh, " her partner said right away "going to New York to eat at Jean Georges." So Andy made a call to see if he could get a couple of desserts sent up. He was transferred to someone who could help and right away the gentleman said of, course they would be happy to send something. Arrangements were made and he said simply, "Have your mother open the door to a delivery Christmas eve." when the time came the doorbell rang and there was a Fed Ex delivery with two entire meals completely prepared for heating which included appetizers, dessert, veggies, rolls, and complete instructions for heating and preparing these meals. There would be no charge at all, he had told Andy. Three of us (I happened to be visiting) worked in the kitchen and sat to eat and I will never forget this kindness - ever.
I only write reviews about places I love the most. So JG is my top choices in NYC. Great and friendly staff ( especially a girl from Philippines) the best scallops i ever tried. As a pastry Chef I can assume you that they have a perfect desserts!
First time in a Michellin star restaurant and couldn't have been more impressed. Service is really what sold me, when asked why we were there I mentioned we were enjoying my birthday lunch here, and at the end our waitress remembered and gave us a wonderful birthday cake free of charge. The food was divine, everything was paired well and the ambiance is very comfortable. Wonderful autumn tasting menu overall and again, service was over the top. Can't wait to try again with a different seasonal menu. We were also pleased with all the offerings, as the tasting menu included mini courses in between automatically, like dessert and an appetizer, we kept thinking we were being given wrong orders but it was indeed all inclusive. Great first experience being fancy :)
Frankly, for the price the service was not exceptional. When we asked the waiter what he would recommend, and what the restaurant speciality was, he said 'everything'. Additionally, the restaurant is located in Trump Towers, were we able to cancel the reservation we would have. In short, the food was good, but not phenomenal. I'd say spend the money at a smaller less known restaurant where you'll remember the food. Three stars are mainly due to the chefs infamy rather than the experience one will have there.
