An excellent dining experience on a quiet week night. I was looking for as close to a restaurant in France itself and this fit the bill perfectly. It took us back to some wonderful evenings in Provence that we remembered so well. My salmon and my wife’s tenderloin were both perfect and I was particularly impressed with the cheese selection. I highly recommend.

Absolutely wonderful. Everything we ordered was “out of this world”. Took a friend there for my first time dining there. I can’t wait to go back because everything on the menu looked scrumptious. The meals seen from the surrounding tables, I wanted a bite for them all. Oh ya, just writing this makes me hungry and desire to return for our next meal.

After reading the reviews for this restaurant my mother, sister & I visited. I was skeptical, believing that no restaurant is THAT good. Well, I was wrong, this place is that good, better actually. The dining area was absolutely spotless and the decor charming. The service couldn’t have been better and the food……aaaahhhh, the food! We started with escargot then my mother and sister both had the trout amandine, I had the beef bourguignon and we finished it all up with bananas flambe. The food was the best I’ve had in Albuquerque and the portions were large. This restaurant is definitely worth a visit. I know I’ll be back and soon!

Albuquerque fine dining at its best! My husband I love to go out to restaurants because we love great food. This is why Cafe Jean Pierre has become our favorite restaurant. We go there about once a week. We love the casual atmosphere and the fact that Chef JP comes out and says hello to everyone, The only problem we have is choosing what we want because all of the food is so good. My favorites are 1) the potato leek soup, 2) the spinach salad, 3) the filet of sole in a lemon caper sause and 4) all of the desserts! 🙂

It’s get a 4.2
During lunch hour M-F, expect no frills. The waitress runs from table to table. Forget getting a glass of wine or beer, she’s only there to get your lunch order and get you out the door. She’s not runner, but she’s more of a speed skater.
Avoid the seafood crepe. It had the most ancient, stale, and tasteless seafood on Earth. Everything is in nice and memorable, but I was shocked to get such a substandard, and poorest seafood among all ABQ restaurants, EVEN cheap buffets for seafood. I can’t possible see how Chef. Pierre thinks that it was acceptable. Do yourself a favor, go in the evenings or weekend, and don’t order the seafood crepes!

I am French and so far I have had the “fruits de mer” crepe as well as the “boeuf Bourguignon” crepe. Both were outstanding! Portions were very large, sauces authentic, and I enjoyed the fresh vegetables (excellent carrots and green beans). The dishes were healthy and tasty. Also the warm bread was reminding me of my native experience, especially that it was served warm as if it were just coming out of my baker’s oven. Wine was crisp and as generously served as the portions. Lighting romantic and server non intrusive. An excellent evening, no wait! Very affordable to boot. Bravo Jean-Pierre!

Made a reservation showed up early by 15 min only one table was seated at this time . We were shown a table that was not to my liking and I asked for another table both of the wait staff became snobbish and told me that they could not accommodate my wife and myself even though the restaurant was empty . We left. I find it strange that when I contacted them on their website and left my complaint I was never contacted it is obvious they don’t care about how their customers are treated don’t go

Charged me twice for asking them to redo my omelet after they added meat when I asked for vegetarian. I should never have to pay for a chefs mistakes. Will not be returning.
