Jaffa is redone into a stunning venue for great food and excellent service. 3 of us shared several dishes from the Cold and Hot sections of the menu; each of which was a creative bundle of flavors that looked beautiful and tasted great. Our server, Jose, provided excellent service, knew the menu and the wine list well, and guided us to make very good choices based on our interests and preferences. It was a great experience.
Just an okay experience.. the walls are painted in this weird candy corn color. Food and drinks were okay. The big negative for me was the 20% kitchen staff fee they apply to your bill which isn’t posted anywhere on the menu or in plain sight inside. If I would have known that I’d have to pay a 20% kitchen staff fee on top of gratuity to my server I would have walked right out. We had the oysters and ceasar salad.. nothing wow’d me and frankly wasn’t impressed.
Atmosphere is luxurious and every bite was delicious. I will say the portions are extremely small but packed full of flavor. A MUST is the raw scallop, absolute perfection if you like sashimi. They crush it on their raw and seafood options. Fries are great with the curry ketchup. Would recommend for a cozy get together with friends or date night at the bar
