Jeffrey's Grocery - New York

Great mood. good food. excellent service. only ground for 4 stars are the steep prices they calculate for dinge, which are coupled with relatiw small portions. $18 for a cocktail is a bit unpleasant for a restaurant. $11 for French pommes are even crazy.

Eating was very good. I ordered the marinated olives that are a lot of 3-4 species. they were great, but the ratio of grube to curses was a little big for my taste. the burger was delicious. it is first line a seafood restaurant, so if seafood isn't her ding, could look somewhere else to eat.

Had a great brunch here! server were friendly and nice. the food was good. ppl looked hip. I think that's why many pages are waiting for the long line. we ordered half dozens of oysters and the frying plate. such a huge plate for two! we couldn't all finish. I think the plate is more for three people?. but it was good. the plate was about $65 a bit. I had an expensive brunch?

I arrived at Jeffreys at 4:30 on January 28th. I’ve eaten here several times with my white boyfriend several times. The service and the food were always impeccable. But today was different. I arrived solo. The surly woman hostess queried “what would you like here today?” I pointed all the white people eating abd drinking and said “I would like to eat and drink just like all these other people “. “Hold up “ she intoned “It doesn’t work like that. We are on a limited menu. Raw oysters only. “. I said “ that sounds great to me”. She seemed disappointed a d growled. I was seated near the alcove where she sta de and I was forced to hear her laugh and shout obscenities with the bar tender. The overall intent, I felt, was to make me feel unwelcomed. I eat in restaurants all over the world. I’m 6”4’ and black. Im a professional. I was dressed well yet she made me feel as though I looked homeless. The bar tender was lovely and the oysters from New Brunswick were delicious. Why must I have a white person with me to be treated well at this establishment ?

Went to Jeffrey's Grocery for the first time last night with my family, first off the service was spectacular, our waiter was excellent. I did not catch his name but he was attentive, ensured we had enough crackers with our spreads and even gave us a free plate of whitefish (its was awesome). Love the atmosphere. Would highly recommend, and definitely will be back.
