Had lunch last weekend at Jean-Georges in NYC. I think this was my first visit since the downgrade to two stars. I think that’s where they should be. The service still seems disconnected and rigid. At least they didn’t ask “have you dined with us before?” like they did every other time I’ve eaten there. I would have given a really snarky response had they done so.

I had the madai sashimi, sweetbreads, and chocolate dessert. My companion had the corn ravioli, fish in broth (forgot what fish exactly), and the cherry dessert.

Overall, the food was very good. Just as good as the other times I’ve been. I also had a half bottle of white wine that was just ok, they didn’t have too big of a selection of half bottles which was a little unfortunate. But that’s to be expected. The meal was too short for me to get a full bottle

I’ll continue to go back, but I don’t see them regaining the third star until the service goes up a notch.
