Another great meal at J&M! We got a new server we hadn't met before, and she took great care of us. We love that the ahi tuna nori chips appetizer is back and that the dessert menu is always changing and always interesting. We look forward to our next visit.

Consistently delicious, fresh and inventive food. The big cherry buratta crostini and homemade pasta were especially tasty. We ate on their enclosed outdoor patio. They had well placed heaters which made the space cozy. I really appreciate that the dining area is relatively quiet so you can easily have a conversation. Wonderful service too. My favorite neighborhood gem.

The cocktails are creative and fun! But that’s where it ended. The halibut tasted good and perfectly cooked, but the presentation was boring and sad. The hamburger with French onion and mushrooms was good, but the mushrooms were cut thick and fell out of the burger. I had to eat it with a fork, wished I had ordered the classic. The bread with Meyer lemon and dill was ridiculously salty, actually inedible . When mentioned to the staff,we were told it was a kitchen “mistake“, you get it free, it’s your lucky day! (I wouldn’t have paid for it anyway) Knowing a “mistake” had been made with this item why wiuld they serve it? It’s hard to believe a decent chef would send that out and continue to serve it!? Mistakes happen, but you don’t serve them when it does! Sadly, Jaunita & Maude didn’t live up to our expectations. We wanted to love it, but didn’t, and will not return.🥲

Food and service very good. The outdoor patio is a great place to dine, much quieter than the dining room. The wait staff was attentive and not intrusive, which we always appreciate.
