"our dining room experience was exceptional. we had a wonderful waiter. eating was excellent and the ambiente was perfect. our meal for the three of us with the tipp was just over $500. my only complaining is that I am there about 20 minutes early and after check-in with the host I asked if I could go into the bar and get a drink and she said yes. I went into the bar, there were two empty places. I sat on one of the stools and ordered a drink. the bartender was very friendly and nice. Before my drink was delivered, another host came up and asked me if I had set myself and had reservations for the bar? I was surprised because I never heard of this. She told me I had to go. I was insulted and uncomfortable. I asked her what I should do with the drink I had just paid for, and she said I could sit in a small chair in the corner next to the bar or I could wait in the lobby. first I sat in the small stool in the corner and felt very uncomfortable and awkward, especially when I saw others sitting in the load that I had just occupied while loading right next. it remained empty for the better part of 10 minutes. I finally moved into the lobby area with my drink and waited for my guests. Bar seats should come first served and they should never leave a dame after they order a drink and pay for it. I mean, I checked at the Hostess booth and was told I could go into the bar and get a drink. I should've asked if I could have a bar stool to go with my drink."

"Seldom do you go to a restaurant when the entire experience is flawless. To experience that in a bistro is truly a find. The term Bistro , a fanciful corruption of the Russian word for quick probably came from Napoleaon 's grenadiers who heard it during the ill fated invasion of Russia which ended in 1812. But the nature of food that is quick doesn 't lend itself to deep commitment to detail, plating as if you were at a fine dining establishment at the height of its powers. Yet that is exactly what we got at a memorable lunch June 16. Every aspect of this food screamed organizational perfection, pride in the work and most importantly, treating customers as honored guests. It has been a Thomas Keller signature to run his restaurants with this sort of care, but to actually experience it makes one believe in humanity 's ability to achieve heights which most of us can only dream of. All the dishes were executed with simplicity and love for the ingredients. The star for me was a smoked trout, which was presented not as the dry salty generic fish you get in most markets. This was a meaty, delicate filet of trout, rather reminiscent of the otherworldly herring I have had in Amsterdam. served with olive oil and simple onion/potato foundation, it just sang unique and sensuous appetizer. Salad Lyonnais is another star, simply served with perfect lardon and soft boiled egg which made the perfect greens sing with joy. Loved the wine list, with really nice half bottle and by the glass choices with great balance between big names and local finds. Needless to say we will be back for dinner, but the first impression is a major love affair. Have to compliment the thoughtful and stunningly knowledgeable staff which made the entire experience more fulfilling than many three star restaurants which deal in PR more than actual cooking. Bravo to Bistro Jeanty! (Traducido por Google) Rara vez vas a un restaurante cuando toda la experiencia es impecable. Experimentar eso en un bistró es verdaderamente un hallazgo. El término Bistro , una corrupción fantasiosa de la palabra rusa para rápido probablemente provino de los granaderos de Napoleón que lo escucharon durante la nefasta invasión de Rusia que terminó en 1812. Pero la naturaleza de la comida que es rápida no se presta hasta un profundo compromiso con los detalles, sirviendo como si estuviera en un establecimiento de alta cocina en el apogeo de sus poderes. Sin embargo, eso es exactamente lo que obtuvimos en un almuerzo memorable el 16 de junio. Cada aspecto de esta comida gritaba perfección organizacional, orgullo en el trabajo y, lo que es más importante, tratar a los clientes como invitados de honor. Ha sido una firma de Thomas Keller administrar sus restaurantes con este tipo de cuidado, pero experimentarlo realmente hace que uno crea en la capacidad de la humanidad para alcanzar alturas con las que la mayoría de nosotros solo puede soñar. Todos los platos fueron ejecutados con sencillez y amor por los ingredientes. La estrella para mí fue una trucha ahumada, que no se presentó como el pescado genérico seco salado que se obtiene en la mayoría de los mercados. Este fue un filete de trucha carnoso y delicado, que recuerda bastante al arenque de otro mundo que comí en Amsterdam. servido con aceite de oliva y base simple de cebolla/papa, simplemente cantó un aperitivo único y sensual. La ensalada Lyonnais es otra estrella, simplemente servida con manteca de cerdo perfecta y huevo pasado por agua que hizo que las verduras perfectas cantaran de alegría. Me encantó la lista de vinos, con media botella realmente agradable y opciones por copa con un gran equilibrio entre grandes nombres y hallazgos locales. No hace falta decir que volveremos a cenar, pero la primera impresión es una gran historia de amor. Tengo que felicitar al personal atento y asombrosamente bien informado que hizo que toda la experiencia fuera más satisfactoria que muchos restaurantes de tres estrellas que se ocupan de las relaciones públicas más que de la cocina real. Bravo a Bistro Jeanty!"
