Jacques is my little breath of Paris around the corner. I’ve been going for years and it’s always great. Pate, escargot, steak frites always amazing. Really great wine selection too.

While I have hsd dinner st Jacques a number of times, this was my first lunch experience. As always the food and service were impeccable. The overall ambiance and vibe brought me back to my dining experiences in small Parisian cafes. I will most certainly continue to ho to Jacques for both lunch and dinner.

the front room has atmosphere but is cramped while the back room is less cozy and less appealing...banquette are comfortable service outstanding with Manager Kevin supervising well trainEd team with Frenchman Enzo notable Onion soup and frisee salad are authentic. the duck confit was ample and served on a bed of garlicky polenta. boeuf bourgignon with mashed potatoes and tasty sauce was terrific creme brulee rounded out the meal and was so good we were tempted to double up. decent selection of mid-level wines especially the reds

I have been here for lunch and dinner many times but this lunch was so awful that I was embarrassed. The restaurant was empty and basically no service at all. Additionally the food was not as good as in the past. Not sure I will try again especially for lunch.
