I want to leave a really good review for our server, Devin! He is so caring and considerate and honestly one of the best servers I’ve ever seen. I rarely ever leave reviews, but his first impression was already amazing. When we got to our table, he was incredibly sweet and attentive and truly took care of us throughout our entire dine-in experience. Funny thing is that when he told us the portions were big, I honestly didn’t believe him at first. Based on other review photos, I thought it would be like any other fancy restaurant with average portion plating. But wow when my plate arrived, it was huge, at least for me, and definitely larger compared to similar places I’ve been to.
The food was also delicious. My husband ordered the lamb, and I usually don’t like lamb because it tastes too gamey to me but this restaurant cooked it so well that even I enjoyed it. On top of that, the atmosphere was warm, comfortable, and just really nice overall.
Amazing service, great food, and a wonderful experience. I definitely recommend if you haven’t tried!

Valentines Day offering was good but not great. The 3 course offering included a handful of starters, entrees, and desserts from the normal menu. The staff was attentive and the food was seasoned well. For the price, I only wish the sides to the main course could’ve been better.

The Paco Shrimp appetizer is their signature starter and it earns the hype. Rich, smoky, and genuinely delicious, it’s the one dish almost everyone seems to order. The calamari is right there with it. Light and crisp with great flavor, but watch the heat because the peppers add a real pop.
The mussels are the show stopper. The broth is so good you will want a side of bread to make sure nothing is left behind. It is the dish you lay in bed thinking about. Steaks were also a pleasant surprise. Coming from the Dallas steak scene, expectations were high and they held up well.
The wine list is solid, though a bit overhyped if you are a more serious wine person. Still, the overall experience is strong and the kitchen delivers. JJ’s sits at a true four and a half, but Trey gets the shooter’s roll to a five.

Went for happy hour. A bit on the pricey side for food but great ambience in a historical building. Service was excellent. Food and drinks were also good.

1st time on the patio and our 4th time here. Seems like food quality has dropped slightly every time… starting with my craft cocktail, Son of a Farmer, for $22 it came out with just a cherry on a “toothpick”, no craft ice cube or orange peel. Just came off lack luster for a “Craft Cocktail.” My wife got the Bangkok Fizz and seemed to enjoy it.
Appetizers, got the Paco Shrimp – perfect, The Lobster, Shrimp & Goat Cheese Purses – ok, the sauce was the best part, the filling was, surprisingly, a bit dull.
Dinner, wife got the salmon, a tad overcooked and dry in the middle, risotto was great along with the shallot garnish. I got the Rack of Lamb, 1 of the 3 medallions was overcooked. I ordered medium. The Dijon sauce was a little broken. Mashed potatoes and gravy were delicious, wish it had more gravy.
Service, overheard our server say to another table that she was new and it showed. She was nice but we waited a lot, especially when we first got there and sat with our waters for some time. We will come back cause there are other dishes we want to try like the lamb lollipop and steamed mussels, we just have to lower our expectations.

Fantastic experience! From the cocktails and wine list, the fresh baked bread, the expertly cooked entrees (steak and salmon), to the final dessert course; we had a wonderful dinner. Danielle provided great service and added to the light hearted yet upscale atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back.

Delicious and wonderful experience. My husband and I went here for date night and unknowingly picked the opening weekend of restaurant week. Despite being incredibly busy, the staff was still attentive and efficient. Delicious cocktails and mocktails. The lobster goat cheese purse is to die for. Amazing onion soup, the wild boar ragu was perfectly braised, and a classic KC steak.
