    I always have a great experience at C&J but I was particularly impressed Sunday evening. We had a relatively late reservation at 8pm. I was with 3 friends who were home from college, and we took our time working through dinner. Our server and the entire team never rushed us and were even generous enough to offer us a complimentary dessert. It meant we closed the place. Even the valet waited around with my car -- the last in the lot. Thanks to all for your graciousness! The guys had a great time an a great meal. This is why Jeff Ruby's places continue to thrive. You can never go wrong.

    Our server Paul was outstanding. Great knowledge of the menu and products. Made a great wine suggestion to compliment my dry aged ribeye. Timing was impeccable and took pride in making sure things were smooth and enjoyable. Thanks for a great experience!

    The food was excellent…we had a filet,creamed spinach , oysters on the half shell and a Freddy salad. The oysters were larger than we’ve had in a long time. The salad needed more tomato and bacon but tasted great. The steak was done perfectly.

    Just always have some sort of issue every time we eat here. This time it was seating and service. When you book a table on here you have options to pick from and we picked main dining room. They tried to put us upstairs and when I said I chose main they replied saying their system doesn’t show what we booked and it just randomly assigns seating when you check in. So then why have the option of picking between main, upstairs, bar and high top if that doesn’t determine where you sit? They eventually were able to squeeze us in a corner downstairs. Food was nice but service is usually lacking here, trying to flag down our waiter for water, more drinks and had to wait 20 minutes for the check.
