Description: Jean-Georges opened in 1997 to critical acclaim. The jewel of Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s empire, the restaurant offers the very best in fine dining. Consistently awarded four stars by the New York Times and three Michelin stars, Jean-Georges presents exquisitely crafted dishes blending French, American, and Asian influences. The local farmer’s market is the driving force behind the seasonal, ever-changing menu. Chef Jean-Georges is a master at maintaining the essence of ingredients while using them inventively to produce the best flavor. Jean-Georges’ chic and intimate dining room was redesigned by Thomas Juul-Hansen, with striking lighting by L’Observatoire. Impeccable service, tableside preparations, and floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning views of Central Park and Columbus Circle all contribute to an unforgettable dining experience. Jean-Georges offers a three-course prix-fixe menu and two six-course tasting menus: a traditional tasting of the chef’s signature dishes, and a seasonal tasting featuring fresh market ingredients. The prix-fixe and tasting menus are available Monday through Sunday for dinner. The restaurant also offers a two-course lunch menu for a terrific value. Gentleman are required to wear a jacket. No jeans, sweatshirts or sneakers allowed. Tie is not required.

We arrived for a late lunch (about 2:30) and luckily were seated on the terrace on a wonderfuk day, facing the park. We ordered a prefix menu of three courses at a rediculous price of $29 and added a glass of wine at $10. The service was perfect and friendly. The food was delicious although the portions rather small. It's... More

If you are looking for a great dining experience or a restaurant for a special occasion, you should check at jean George at the trump hotel. The service was impeccable and the food had a great flavor. The desserts are amazing!

We love this restaurant, especially Jean Georges riff on Asian dishes such as salt and pepper lobster. The have a very good and extensive wine list but a bit expensive for us. We've found, after multiple visits to both restaurants, Jean Georges and Nougatine, a certain stuffiness by the staff (especially at the hostess stand. If the food wasn't so... More

I went here for a late lunch on a Sunday afternoon, and was very impressed. The service is great- it's a fancy restaurant, but the servers are not pretentious. I dropped my sweater and someone swooped over and picked it up for me. My water was always filled, fresh bread offered several times, doors held open, etc. Onto the food-... More

You don't need me to tell you this is one of the top places in NY. With that said, much is expectation. We did the tasting menu w/o wine pairing. We were treated royally and the food is indeed very good but is it $750 for 2 persons good. Not really. Definitely had better individual dishes elsewhere. However; as a... More

We went all out and we each got a tasting menu with the wine accompaniment, and shared each dish. Each tasting menu was seven courses with 7 half glasses of wine. The food was amazing. I particularly liked the garlic soup with frog legs (would never have ordered this!), the asparagus with morel mushrooms, the halibut, and the squab. The... More
