Chris took phenomenal care of us for our 13th wedding anniversary. We had the sole and the filet- both cooks to perfection. we started with cocktails & the crabcake. All of his recommendations were spot on and we cannot wait to go back.

Our meal was excellent! Had our steak served carpet bag style, which was perfect for the two of us. Portions were large. The staff was very knowledgeable on all the menu items and very accommodating. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening.

We love to dine at J. Carver’s any chance we get. The staff is always so friendly and knowledgeable, the food is FANTASTIC- from start to finish. Some favorites are the escargot, the loaded potato Gnocchi, and the Dover Sole. Upon arriving, we waiting approximately 1-2 minutes to be seated by the friendly hosts, Gina was our server this time and she was fantastic. I will say the time between ordering and receiving our martinis was a little longer than expected, but that was not enough to bring down the rest of our 5 star service.
