Outstanding restaurant for lunch. Great wine list and the salads and mussel selection were delicious. Server was polite and efficient. Will definitely go back again.
Bonnie
It was very very loud. They didn't have a second bottle of wine that we ordered and charged us for the next expensive bottle.
Dana
Food, drinks, and service was very nice. Pretty loud, buts that's part of the gig. A definite thumbs up, going back.
Wendy
Great meal for our larger than normal party of 8. Service was prompt and accurate and the food was delicious, as always. We were going to a show next door and didn't have a lot of time, but even without saying that to the server, everything came out quickly, but not too rushed, and we had plenty of time to enjoy it.

Generally an okay dining experience, but with a few kinks.... The food was good, but not exceptional. As appetizers we ordered the Escargots, and though the three rules of French cuisine are butter, butter and more butter, the dish had way too much of it. The melted butter looked very cloudy and not very appetizing. The Foie Gras Mousse was pretty good, though it lacked a little of the goose liver taste. Its serving size can easily satisfy two guests. We ordered Mussels Marinière as the main course, and the plate arrived before we finished our appetizers....I would presume that the mussels are farm raised, as they were on the smaller side, the broth was mopped up with very good French Baguette while we waited for the French Fries we ordered to accompany our main. They finally came halfway through the meal, but were pretty tasty. The house wines (Pinot Grigio and Massey Dacta Sauvignon Blanc) were good and nicely chilled, though we had to wait quite a while for our second glass because the bartender was running behind with orders. Finally, we finished off our meal with an Espresso and were asked if we wanted sugar and milk (for me milk in Espresso is a definite no no), but yes, sugar would be nice. We received our cups, sugar on the side, but no spoons....after requesting them, our waiter brought us two SOUP spoons and explained later they were out of coffee spoons.... So again, though the ambiance of the place is reminiscent of French bistros, the overall experience left a little bit to be desired.

Delicious food and wine, and the service provided by Tammy was exceptional and friendly! I ordered a gluten-free meal and, as always at 39 Rue de Jean, there was zero problem with cross-contamination. I always appreciate how good their food is and how careful they are with food allergies!
Cory
We have enjoyed this restaurant for over 13 years now! The quality of the dishes hasn't wavered, and our waiters have always been helpful and attentive. Our #1 favorite dish is the short ribs, and the fried goat cheese salad is divine, too!
Raymond
All the staff positions were welcoming and very helpful. The restaurant itself was very pleasing in the seating and arrangement.
Lauren
Quality of food and service were excellent although 4 scallops for an entree was disappointing.
Our waiter took care of all concerns immediately and made our experience much better! We love this place!
Maureen
Service was very good & Savannah was great. We will definitely return & recommend to others
Lindsey
Our server Dakota was great! I hadn't been to the restaurant in a few years and it just seems that what once made it feel special is no more. The place is still lovely but the food was mid. When everything is so expensive these days, diners need just a bit more to justify spending the money.
Kirk
From start to finish a superb experience. In a city full of great experiences and food Rue de Jean will always remain at the top of my list. We took our cadet Son to celebrate a milestone event and would do it again in an instant.
Rajan
As always, everything was as advertised. We love Rue De Jean for what it is. A moderately priced bistro food that always tastes as expected
