    Our first time back since six months ago and it was even better this time. Just like our last visit, we had the pleasure of having Danielle as our server- we recognized her as soon as she introduced herself to us so we knew we would have a great evening. Appetizers were the beef carpaccio, and a Japanese A5 wagyu (4oz for $55 as a special appetizer- a steal!), then the filleted bronzino and 36oz Pat Lafrieda porterhouse steak. Capped it off with a “cinnamon toast crunch” bread pudding with burnt cinnamon gelato, sheer decadent deliciousness!! Thank you Danielle and all at JS for another amazing experience!
