   The server forgot about us. The manager came to the table and there was a piece of scewer left in my shrimp...so when I went to eat it....I was chewing on wood. Told the manager that greeted the table(jason) he did nothing about it.

   Had a birthday dinner on a Sat. night with my daughter. We ordered the rack of lamb and the scallops with lobster risotto. The food was so delicious and the service was excellent. It was not the first visit for either of us. They have great staff who worked well together and helped each other. Highly recommended for a special treat!

    First time dining here and can’t wait to go back. Our server was very attentive and friendly. The food was phenomenal. We both ordered off the prix fixe menu. The sourdough bread brought to the table was warm and perfectly baked. We both chose the salad for our first course. It was generous and delicious with a very nice house dressing. We both had filets for our entree. Mine was petite and came with scallops. Ordered rare and they were done perfectly and were absolutely fantastic. For our desserts, we chose the apple croustade and the carrot cake. These were hands down some of the best desserts we’ve had. We shared both and could not have been happier with our choices. Highly recommend this spot for a special occasion or a date.

    As usual, it was an excellent experience that we had at J Gilberts. Kim was our waitress and she was friendly and very efficient and enhanced our experience. We will continue to use this is one of our top restaurant destinations. Karolina continues to do an outstanding job as manager.

    My wife and I have been dining here for over 20 years. It’s typically one of our favorites. This most recent experience was just okay. The server did her best and we appreciated her efforts. The oysters were subpar. The entrees were ok. The price we paid is not reflective of the actual experience. We ordered essentially the same meals the week before at Columbus Fish Market for a third of the cost. No exaggeration. We will think twice about returning.

    The food was wonderful: we had the filet + shrimp combo and the blackened chicken penne. No complaints about the service or ambiance. My only wish would be for a larger selection of draft craft beers.

    Food was great! Service was lousy. Wait staff placing the wrong entrees in front of us. Wait staff reaching across my plate to remove empty plates and refill water. Never asked if we wanted desert. As a norm service has been good here in the past. But not this occasion. For the price paid we were not looking for an Applebees experience . Overall a 3 rating for this particular visit. Probably due to untrained waitstaff.

    We've been coming to JGilberts for a while and always have a great experience. Caleb at the bar is so attentive and does everything in his power to make you feel like you're the only guest in the bar. We love coming in, whether for date night, happy hour, or group night out. This is where we chose to be.

    The food was fantastic! I got the filet mignon, others got the pork chop and the seafood medley. All were outstanding and cooked to perfection. And can we talk about those mashed potatoes? mmmmm We were celebrating a birthday. They provided a nice little candle for the occasion, and a birthday card - noting a free dessert for the occasion. The chocolate velvet cake was also excellent! Noise level is on the quiet side of moderate. Ambiance great. Great service, too. A little expensive, but it was worth it.

    Wonderful dinner and service as usual. Received a free dessert and $25 off as birthday reward. Server was very good if somewhat funny! He gave us a free second dessert because we did not receive a salad we ordered. Food is always cooked as you wish and arrives at the table warm. Highly recommend.

    I do not normally comment in restaurant reviews. In this particular case, I am making an exception. I am 72 years old and dating a wonderful woman I love who lives an hour away from me. I have been to J Gilberts, many many times, and always been pleased with the results. This time, our Valentine’s Day, we postponed it until last night because I had a full knee replacement surgery a couple weeks before and my girl was out of the country. Last night was our Valentines day. I requested a booth where we could sit side-by-side. This was added to my notes when the booking was made. I have always loved J Gilbert, and specifically scheduled yesterday on a Monday night so it would be quiet and efficient. We arrived and had to wait about 10 minutes before our table is ready and then they seated us at a table for two that was not a booth. I mention with my injury and because it was our Valentine’s Day it would be nice to have a booth. Fortunately, they were able to move us to a booth which was great. I explained to the waitress the situation and that we were going to celebrate Valentine’s Day tonight. We ordered a bottle of wine from the menu and waited about 1520 minutes and were told that it was not available. Consequently, we ordered a different bottle of wine and 1520 minutes later was told it was not available. We then ordered a third bottle of wine which was available but by the time we got it, GG’s wonderful warm bread had cooled off sufficiently that we wanted to enjoy with our wine. We had ordered dinner, and specifically stated due to the occasion, we wanted it to be very leisurely, and to not bring out dinner until we had a chance to enjoy our wine and eat some of the delicious bread. Sadly, before we taken a few sips of wine due to having to wait for it, our entrées were delivered. They were nice and hot around upon arrival, but we told them .

    Normally we would RAVE about this but last night our experience was not good. Our food was so bad last night. Our steak was super chewy and fatty and not cooked to what we asked. The salmon was legit cold. The potatoes were not cooked long enough and were so hard. We spent $180 and literally didn’t take any of the good home and we feel like we waisted our $$ which is so sad. The seating we were put in the bar in a tiny table by the stairs and everyone thst were leaving would grab onto the back of my chair to get down. Just overall was not a great experience
