I highly recommend Jessica's Bistro & Divine Catering. I have had the pleasure of experiencing their catering services twice, and each time has been exceptional. Both my wedding and fundraiser featured delectable and flavorful cuisine. I highly recommend this company!

First time i tried her food was at a Frozen event i took my kids to at 321 Venue (same owner) it was so amazing!! i met her & she told me about her restaurant, I’m cuban too so you already know i had to go try it .. it was amazing again! then a couple weeks ago i had her cater my daughter birthday party .. it was soooooo amazing .. everyone loved it .. i was scared it wasn’t going to be enough but it was way more than enough.. so many people took to go (it was that good) & we still had a lot of leftovers… it was really so tasty & good !! I will be using her venue & food for my sons birthday in December, I can’t wait !!! Sadly I didn’t get any pics of the food , i was very busy but we got arroz moro , yuca con mojo & lechon asado , BEST FOOD EVER!! I highly recommend

We went for dinner at 7pm on a Wednesday night andJJ's was crowded. We were celebrating an anniversary (not a wedding anniversary) and asked for a quiet table when we made reservations. They seated us in the rear area of the restaurant where there are bench seats and the table was decorated with scattered hearts - very nice! However, the seats were hard and uncomfortable and difficult for me to get into, since I have a disability. Even my husband found the seats to be uncomfortable. Our server was fun and professional and very quick- she seemed to be the only server for the entire restaurant! We shared the miniature crabcakes as an appetizer and they were good. I had the beef bourguinon and my husband had the seafood risotto. I found the beef to be dry and slightly tough - strange when this dish cooks slowly and long resulting usually in a tender dish. Carrots and potatoes were non-existent so the dish was mostly dry beef in gravy so I didn't eat very much. My husband said his was good but the portion was small. He had the baked brie for dessert and I had the chocolate mousse and took most of it home. I used the Ladies Room after dinner and thought it definitely needed a redecorating. The overall effect was that it was a bit dirty - when it wasn't. Our bill came to $200 before tip but we did tip more than 20% because our server had done her best for us with wine tastes before choosing one, friendliness, and professionalism. Overall, this was definitely not a $200 dinner and JJ's needs some significant improvement in the kitchen as well as overall decor.

Jessica’s is always a delight. The ambiance is cozy, the service is fantastic, and the food is divine. This is our favorite date night place!

Overpriced for where and what is was. The scallop appetizer that is shown online was not on the menu, we inquired, they said they would make it....consisted of 3 scallops. We decided the dinner scallops were fine... 4 scallops over mashed potatoes with a mushroom sauce. Appetizer listed as $20 online, dinner was $47. The burger was fine. The steak was tasteless. The place was empty.

The food was just ok. They were out of a lot of items especially desserts- our reservation was for 7:30. I ordered the special salmon- the waitress should have mentioned the price was $55 for the dish. It was so rich - way too much sauce on it. we both ordered the escargot which again was extremely rich and was large - i only ordered it because they were out of my first choice appetizer. My husband had the beef Bourguignon - he said the meat was hard to chew very tough and stringy. Overall experience- never going back and i won't recommend it to my friends. The bill was very pricey for a dissatisfying menu

On our first roadtrip w/our dog from West Central Florida to West Tennessee experiencing mostly very unhealthy fast food, and Southern fried everything , we found Jessica’s Bistro. It has some incredible Cuban food but is a varied menu w/many versions of favorite American dishes. Very cozy and inviting restaurant. If you are staying at the near Hampton Inn in Lake City you receive a $10 % discount when you present your room key. Don’t miss it!
Dinner was excellent as always. We had not dined here in a while and were pleased to see that the food, service and ambiance were still five star. If anything, the Bouillabaisse was better than I remember. A great celebration of my wife's birthday.

Beef bourguignon was dry! Very overcooked, and for $39. The lamb shank was okay, at $49 and the crepes were so-so with barely a handful of fries for $29. Desserts are now $15 each. High priced rip off overall.
Salad was delicious but very small, dinner portions were good size and dessert as always was fantastic! I was stuffed regardless of the small salad...lol Overall a great experience ?

Our waitress was so attentive and so good. Our food though, honestly for the prices just did not blow us away. My husband's salmon was just ok (the sides were good) and the steak I had really did not have a lot of flavor despite the sauce on top. There are just several other restaurants in the area that I feel like have better food for a smaller bill at the end of the day. The atmosphere was very nice and the wine selection was also good.
