   The food was good, but you guys are very slow. It took a long time to get your food, and it wasn't even crowded.

   I was looking forward to going to Jordyn's in Hyde Park to celebrate my friend's birthday. However, I was quickly disappointed when my friend attempted to order some jerk cornish hen, and I asked for dressing, only to be told that they did not have either item. This happens too often at black owned establishments, which I try to make a point of patronizing. Next, there is automatically a 20% gratuity added to the bill when there is a party of two or more. However, the service did not warrant a 20% tip. We had to wait for at least ten minutes or longer before someone even came to the table to wait on us. The server knew it was my friend's birthday because I told her. Yet, there was no complimentary dessert or other celebratory gesture. Please take this feedback in the spirit in which it is being given, which is to make help it a great dining experience for everyone.

   Food was amazing. We got the fried catfish, cabbage was sooo good, fries, lamb chops , candied yams and brocollini. Ambience is good. Service was slow and not super attentive. Music was a bit on the louder side.

   Our group of 8 met to celebrate a birthday; the total experience was superbly outstanding, from the server Bobbye to the wait staff Ryan!!! We were supremely impressed with the ambiance, music selection and of course, the fabulous meal assortment we were deliciously served. I can’t say that we’ve had a more memorable experience in quite a while and for sure will return to enjoy staff, food and excellent service by the Jordyn team!

   We ate here for my dad’s birthday. The food was perfectly seasoned and everything we had was delicious. We had reservations for 3pm on a Sunday, but ended up arriving about 20-30 minutes early. Despite that they seated us within a few minutes. Our server, Mari was very pleasant and checked on us several times. The wait for our food was reasonable, in fact the food arrived before our appetizer. The chicken wings were very good. My mom’s short ribs were tender and the gravy was delicious. The collard greens were excellent as well. They have some amazing cocktails as well. We were pleased with the food and service overall. Make sure you have a reservation. We tried walking in a couple weeks ago and they were unable to accommodate us. We will definitely be back.

   The servers was absolutely horrible. I waited 20 minutes to get seated after placing a reservation once seated 30 minutes have went by and no one came to take our order. I had to flag someone down to let them know that we haven’t been serviced yet. Then once the waitress came and took our order another 30 minutes written by and we haven’t received anything so I just got up and left. I never felt so disrespected in my life was absolutely horrible. I am so disappointed.

   Worst experience ever. Please don't ever go there i am begging everyone. I had a 7:30 reservation for 8 people for my girlfriend birthday and did not get seated until 8:30 at a correct table then we just sat there waiting to get service no waiter ever came to our table so at 9 so went to to bar to see what was going on and then around 9:10 she finally came to take our drink orders and took forever to bring our drinks and then finally came back to take our food order and took forever to bring our food and was missing some of our food and they had to go back to the kitchen and get madke the rest of it. Omg this was a horrible experience and for my girlfriend birthday and for her friends as well. There was a 20% gratuity and you had to pay with cash only there. Horrible service. Non attentive. I had to keep going up to the bar to get to the waitress and manager for things that should have been done and taken care right from the beginning and during our service and reservation there. PLEASE DONT GO THERE AM BEGGING YALL THIS IS NOT A GOOD ESTABLISHMENT.
