I've always had an excellent experience at Chez TJ. I've heard of some people who didn't have such luck, but that isn't me. They have been around as long as I can remember and have always had a great reputation. It has been a while since I've been there so I don't remember all the details, but I'll certainly be... more

Not exactly a party in my mouth. I have higher expectations for Michelin star restaurants. The service and location was excellent. Did discover a new cheese that I enjoyed. The presentation was beautiful and creative, but the flavors just didn't grab me. The best part of my dining experience was the company :) more

I went here for my birthday because of the two Michelin stars that it had received. I had previously been to Michael Mina in San Francisco, which also has two Michelin stars and it was wonderful. My birthday evening at Chez TJ was ultimately disappointing. One of our group, on my suggestion, took the wine pairings, while the remainder of... more

Unique and memorable, but unsure if it's worthy of 2 Michelin stars, since I've had far better meals at other 1 star restaurants. The tasting menu was creative, but the portions were small even for fine dining standards. Fun to try once, but probably will not return. more

Every April my husband and I try a new Michelin rated restaurant to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Last year we went to Patrick Guilbaud in Dublin, Ireland (Absolutely fabulous). The year before we went to La Gavroche in London (My all time favourite restaurant, I have been back numerous times), the year prior to that Gordon Ramsay at Claridge's Hotel... more

I've dined at Chez TJ on numerous occasions and it's always my favorite place to dine for special occasions. There have been various head chefs since we started to dine there - some better than others, but overall the quality is always there and the atmosphere is very relaxing and romantic. more
