    From the time we arrived at the restaurant to the time we left after lunch, service was excellent. We were quickly showed to our table and attended to. Our waiter, Kelyan, explained our options and helped us decide. The appetizers and entrees were excellently prepared and were delicious. We weren’t rushed and the ambience and view was as advertised. I will come back here on my next visit to NYC.

    We had not been here since our last visit NYC a couple of years ago. Very happy to have made it back. Quaint small bistro in SoHo. Appetizer we had the Pear Salad and the Mussels with Garlic and White Wine broth. Both were superb. The entrees we both had the same. Cod served over lentils and a saffron sauce. The fish was perfectly cooked, flaky and moist. Dessert we shared the Apple Tartine. The flavor was excellent, but I think it was warmed on a microwave so the texture was too mushy. Drank a very nice bc Pouilly-Fuisse,

    We came expecting great food, but we didn’t anticipate how much fun we’d have! From the lively vibe and great music to the energetic and friendly crowd, the atmosphere was a ten out of ten. The space was warm and inviting, buzzing with excitement yet relaxed enough to enjoy great conversation. We'll definitely be back for next month's pop-up!

    Vibes are cozy and upscale. The food was delicious, unfortunately some of the cocktails were a bit off/not to our liking, but the wine choices were fantastic and the waiter was quick to make a swap. The team at Jeans made my birthday party extra special with a champagne toast at the end of the night! Thanks all - can't wait to come back!
