    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.

    We were attracted to the restaurant by proximity to our hotel and good reviews. We love Japanese food and hoped this would be a good example of this type of cuisine. We were more than impressed by our experience. Each of the orders for appetizers, salads, and entrees were enough for two and we did our best to finish them. Surprising presentations with great flavor greeted us along the way. The waiter help us make good choices and was attentive a well. A beautiful room, great energy, and attractive guests filled the place with an energy that added to the night. Highly recommend.
