    I really like the menu. It has a little bit of everything. The ambiance is pretty. But I must say above all the service was excellent! Ask to sit in Kyla’s section. She is so nice so attentive. She smiled the whole time and it was busy when we arrived. She made my experience even better! Thank you!

    Brunch on 12/22/24 for 4 diners. Service was attentive and professional. Orders were fulfilled in excellent timeframes. Selections included drinks, steak & eggs, omelette and a chocolate chip pancake. The steak was cooked as ordered and was outstanding. The veggie omelette was excellent and the pancake was enjoyed by our granddaughter. Great restaurant for fine dining and special occasions.

    We had a lovely dinner here after the holiday symphony concert. The food was delicious! I had the salmon and my friend had a seafood pasta bowl. Everything was yummy, including the dark chocolate mousse. We will definitely return. The staff was friendly and professional.

    Our food and service were excellent. The restaurant was decorated beautifully and the Christmas music added to the ambiance. Our waitress went above and beyond to meet all of our needs. A member of the hostess staff took a holiday picture of us. It couldn’t have been a better experience.

    Out waitress was very rude, she didn’t not use any customer service skills at all. Did not check on the table and was very inattentive. Made me really uncomfortable to enjoy my meal.

    Sandi was a wonderful server; she was very good, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic; she made good recommendations, even accommodated allergies; the place is a tad expensive but the food is very fresh, very tasty, and plentiful; the entrees are good size we didn’t get appetizers but opted for desserts, which were incredible

    Louis, our waiter was superior! I love the Greek Salad but wanted to add salmon, Louis suggested blackened… it was divine! I can never say enough good things about JOTR, it’s a must for great dining and perfect atmosphere. Outdoor patio is nice this time of year too…
