This is a beautiful brasserie with fantastic service and good food. My only complaint was that the hanger steak was incredibly tough and difficult to cut even though I was using a steak knife.

Vibes are cozy and upscale. The food was delicious, unfortunately some of the cocktails were a bit off/not to our liking, but the wine choices were fantastic and the waiter was quick to make a swap. The team at Jeans made my birthday party extra special with a champagne toast at the end of the night! Thanks all - can't wait to come back!
