Who hasn’t strolled down a NYC block wistfully wishing for a brownstone to call your very own? Try the next best thing, a two-story turn-of-the-century townhouse with that lavish old-wealth charm. Read more

Went with dad on a weds. Cute , townhouse vibe but quite loud ! Food was of course great. Started with butternut squash soup and salmon for main. Great flavors and cook. Don’t miss the cocktails ????

Other than the extremely cramped seating arrangement, our evening was lovely. Dinner was delicious, but the butterscotch pudding was the show stopper! The warm chocolate cake was a hit as well .

Ronni

Cozy French restaurant . I loved their salmon which they tell you isn't cooked fully to keep it from being dry. We paired it up with a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc and ended with a tiramisu for dessert

Alp Ozcelik

Their restaurant week menu is stellar! The watermelon gazpacho sounded a bit meh but it tastes SO good! The hake was also fantastic - the potatoes alone are amazing.

Love it! My fav Jean Georges restaurant in new york. Great to have such a place in the upper east side. Don’t skip the dessert !

James H.

The tuna tartare was a delicious and creative winner. It reminded me of pigeon appi in Hong Kong. Great choice.

Marie La Rue

Tuna tartare and Kale-broccoli salad are standouts. Townhouse setting is beautiful and welcoming. Love the bar area.

Caroline Schulweis

Farm to table and beautiful new redesign in the last year. Great seafood salad , light butternut squash soup , salmon , and Brussels sprouts

Cameron W

When Nougatine is booked we come here for classic JG French cuisine with an Asian twist. Easier to book and somewhat more affordable , definitely check it out.

James H.

Food was delicious and creative. The menus reflected Jean George flair. We enjoyed the seafood hot appetizer .

Kat Su

Went for sunday brunch . The pre fix is a reasonable $28 for an amazing 3-course French affair. Do the pea soup , truffle salmon , and chocolate cake . Forget the overpriced cocktails , and leave happy.

Dhisty

A nice gem fr jean-georges restaurant group!Great food, drinks, desserts , good for intimate dinner n a small group (4-5).No need to get prix fix , full price is very reasonable! Highly Recommended

Julie Soscia

Recently renovated, Jean-Georges Restaurant . Charming, amazing service and of course wonderful dishes Try the Roasted Duck .

Lori Luo

Rustic French plates are served in an old-school ambiance. While it may be JGV's flagship restaurant , there's not much by way of inspiration or innovation.

Lauren Rosen

The salmon delicious... And the corn pudding may be the BEST thing I've tasted in years. Service was wonderful.

Roger Schonfeld

If you feel like a wonderful fancy lunch , the three course for $28 is terrific. Ravioli to start then roast salmon .

Edith C.

This was my third visit so I highly recommend the butterscotch pudding . Also I find the lower level cozy and romantic .

James H.

Nice spot for lunch . Quiet and good food. Decor was a bit old fashioned and could be modernized a bit.

Tiago Ferreira

Ricotta ravioli and Warm asparagus . Fabulous. Great vegetarian options , great service.

Tom DiMaggio

The food is respectable, nice service, very local vibe, and quiet . Good date spot .

Alicja P.

Cucumber mint martini is the way to go! And make sure you try the butterscotch pudding .

Jordan Parker

Salmon was great, wine was good and dessert was good

Kris Concepcion

The ravioli appetizer is very good. The Eggs Benedict were just average. The starter bread is really good though.

GoGo to JoJo for its surprisingly good thinly sliced yellow and green squash . ★★★ Read more

Dave

Delicious spot for an over-the-top lung on the east side. The tuna rolls are fantastic.

James H.

Crispy chicken with onion rings was a winner.

New York Habitat

Who knew something so simple could be the best thing on the menu? Really, the butternut squash soup is outstanding, you'll regret not getting it!

Greg MacDonald

Amazing food, ambiance and service - highly recommend!

Did You

Good for one visit at least. Food was good but nothing that deserves high praise. The best part of the meal was the dessert but after loads of butter on the main course, you could end up feeling dull

Sharon Tsao

The eggs Benedict was delicious!

James H.

We ordered champagne and the glasses were pretty but not functional. I would ask for a flute or make a different choice.

JoAnne Kao

Such a hidden neighborhood gem with exceptional food

Courtney Gilbertson

The crispy chicken is amazing as is the salted caramel ice cream

Jeffrey W

Truffle with Arctic char - one of the best dishes ever
