Jar - Los Angeles

Jar is a Modern American Chophouse that stands for ?Just Another Restaurant.? However, for me, it is not just another restaurant. Jar is a very intimate, small, and delicious restaurant with excellent service, great food, and great ambiance. When entering the restaurant, I already knew I would have a wonderful time. We had perfect seating, and our waiter, John, and the wait staff were very on top of it, and everything came out in perfect timing, not too slowly butnot too quickly. We started with appetizers and drinks. I am all for a White Russian, so that was my first drink, and then for the table, we got a dozen oysters and black mussels. I'm actually not a fan of mussels, but these mussels werereally delicious. For my main meal, I got a skirt steak. John recommended that each of us get one side and share for the table. I went with the purple yams, which was delicious! I had never had them before, and I was surprised by howreally, really, really good they were. As for dessert, we got three for the table; this included the chocolate pudding, the banana cream pie, and a slice of red velvet cake. I also got a cappuccino because I have to get coffee with dessert.The desserts were a little disappointing; the only really good thing was the banana cream pie. The red velvet cake was really dry, and the chocolate pudding was just blah. Some things to remember: If you?re going to head to jar, which Irecommend, they do not have valet parking which I did not like. We ended up parking on the street, but we found out after the fact that we could have parked in the garage across the street. If you want to dine inside, you must show yourvaccination card and ID. If you do not have it, you can dine outside. However, I feel to get the whole experience of Jar, inside dining is the way to go

Jar is an acronym for Just Another Restaurant, which specializes in classic American dishes but elevated. Last night was my first time dining for dinner but it won?t be my last. I love how low lit it is and every seat in the house is very comfortable whether you sit in a booth or one of the tables. Our server John was also very knowledgeable, funny, and did a great job. We arrived 20 minutes early and didn?t expect to be seated until our booked time but they offered to seatus early and did so, which was really appreciated. They have many great menu options so I will have to come back again to try a few more but this time I started with the Roasted Beets and they were really delicious. There was a healthysize of Burrata with it and the beets were perfectly sweet. For my entrée I chose their signature dish The Pot Roast. It was one of the better ones that I have ever had and eating it with the creamy horseradish on the side is a must.Honestly it?s so good I would go back for that dish alone. For dessert I chose the butterscotch Budino because it?s one of my personal favorite desserts and it did not disappoint. It was a large portion but still went quickly. Overall itwas a really nice dinner and I would recommend to anyone for any occasion. We sat next to a large work dinner, but I think it would also be perfect for a date or a dinner with friends or family. I will be back in the near future.

Delicious classics and many reinventions. The atmosphere is so regal and chic but not overly done. It is a true exception in San Francisco in terms of service and atmosphere. The food is good if not great and i would choose Jar for many good conversations with close friends to discuss life changes while having a meal deserving of the occasion

Really fabulous meal. Every dish has exceeded our expectations of quality and taste. The service was attentive without being intrusive.

One of my favorite restaurants – great atmosphere, great food
