    Had the seafood pasta - a bit heavy - garlic could be reduced - wine was fine - salad was good - the desert was great - noise was really almost too much. The ambiance was too loud for really any conversation without shouting. Acoustics need to be improved. Would go back again, maybe during the day instead of the evening. Chose this restaurant because of the food and supposedly band @ 6:30pm - never heard them.

    Very loud inside on Friday evening. Excellent waitress & food. Enjoyed our wine. Next time will try outside as would have been loads quieter.

    Excellent food, excellent service, and ambience. Music was a pinch louder than I had hoped for, given the small space, but it wasn't a deal breaker.

    We have been regulars at J Theodore since they opened since we live close. They have always been spectacular. However, the food this time was not as good. I wondered why they served a steak knife with the red fish. Answer: it was very tough. My wife's entre was not great either. I'm hoping they get back to their old glory
    J. TheodoreResponded on June 25, 2025
    Hi David, thank you so much for your continued support over the years—it truly means a lot to us. We’re sorry to hear that your recent visit didn’t reflect the quality you’ve come to expect from J. Theodore. That’s definitely not the impression we want to leave, especially with longtime guests like you. Your feedback about the redfish and your wife’s entrée has been noted and will be shared with our culinary team so we can address it directly. We’re committed to getting back to the standard you know and love, and we genuinely hope to welcome you back soon for a better experience.

    Nice vibe. But the food & service was average. Will probably keep them in the rotation of places to have brunch for sure.

    Group of 7. Waitress was less than attentive. Seemed like she was in the weeds the entire time, but the restaurant was shockingly dead for a Saturday brunch. She was however quite friendly and actually took food orders according to appropriate etiquette. Something you very rarely see anymore. When the food arrived, they were at varying degrees of temperature. Barely hot food essentially. I was kind of embarrassed that this was my restaurant recommendation, but luckily we had a wonderful time despite.
    J. TheodoreResponded on June 25, 2025
    Hi Lindsay, thank you for sharing your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations, especially during a brunch you had recommended to others. While we're glad your server was friendly and followed proper service etiquette, it's disappointing to hear that the attentiveness and food temperature fell short. That’s not the standard we aim for, regardless of how busy or quiet the day may be. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will be following up with our team to ensure better consistency moving forward. We’re glad you still had a wonderful time overall, and we hope to welcome you back for a much smoother experience.
