John J Jeffries Restaurant

We just love this place. The drinks, food, and service never disappoint. Although we've had great entrees in the past, this time we decided to just get small plates. It was so much fun. The amuse bouche was an exquisite vegetable broth/bisque. My mushroom bisque was absolutely delicious, as was my pork belly. My wife had the beef tartare, which is one of the reasons we enjoy this place so much. It's served with a quail egg, which makes the dish so unctuous. However, the shrimp and grits gave it a run for the money, layered with so much flavor we will definitely look to have it again. Finally, the smoked trout on greens with goat cheese was not to everyone's liking, but I found it exceptional. By themselves, the greens and goat cheese were too pungent, but when taken in the same bite as some smoked trout, it came together beautifully. Service, as always, was world-class.

One of the best restaurants in Lancaster just go you won’t regret it

Food was good, service was... not. We did enjoy our meal, but were disappointed that the level of service did not nearly meet what one would expect with that kind of price tag.

Had a wonderful meal for my .57th birthday Thank you so much. Jen was an awesome server and made our night complete.We will definitely be back again.

Came here last night for Valentine’s Day and it was delicious! Literally everything hit the spot. We had the lobster risotto appetizer, the mahi mahi risotto, and dry aged beef. We had their coffee chocolate chip ice cream for dessert and a few cocktails. For sure a special occasion place. The food was fantastic and the atmosphere was really nice.

It was my husband's and I first time eating here. Holly was our server and she was great. Excellent food and service.

It was our first time visiting and everything was wonderful. Our server, Holly, made the evening even better. She was so welcoming and detailed. Thank you Holly! We’ll be back again soon.

Cozy restaurant, service was great and dishes were fantastic!

A little loud and no music, or at least I couldn’t hear it. Service and food was excellent!
