                          Am sure there is a logistical reason but why in a large dining room are all patrons seated in one small section. The guest at the next table was on his phone and using offensive language. Our server was pleasant but service was interminably slow.

                          A perfect place to eat when you actually want to hear the table conversation! Lovely ambiance, outstanding service (thank you, Tyler!), fine food. Worth the money. The Jefferson is still the epitome of elegance in Richmond.

                          We had a delightful lunch with old friends in such a beautiful setting! The food was delicious especially the steak sandwich. Bread was soft and warm. Service was outstanding.

                          It is an amazing alternative to enjoy the ambiance of the Jefferson for less money than the main dining restaurant. Our server was extremely professional and added to the experience. I would definitely recommend.

                          Always enjoy the Jefferson at the Holidays — beautiful decor and was especially nice after Christmas to enjoy the atmosphere without the crowds. Food was delicious as usual.

                          Beautiful restaurant. Service was very slow and we had to help ourselves to items such as plates and silverware for our appetizer and lunch. Delicious food.
