Tonight was the first time me and my wife tried J's place let me start by saying Jay greeted us as soon as we walked in after we were seated he came over and started talking to us making us feel at home .The food was amazing and the server was very attentive and friendly and after they found out it was our Anniversary they brought out our dessert with a sparkle in it and wished us a happy Anniversary . We will definitely be back again I highly recommend this place.

J's Place is a hidden gem with amazing food, hospitable staff, and a great atmosphere. Their menu offers generous portions of steak, shrimp, fish, chicken, and pasta galore. The theatrical tableside cheese wheel pasta presentation adds a memorable touch. The desserts are too numerous to list, and everyone in our party of 10 ended up taking home midnight snacks. It's a perfect spot for a date night too.

BEST BRUNCH I'VE EVER HAD!!!!! The eggs Benedict with a zesty made from scratch hollandaise sauce and candied bacon with black pepper was to die for. I got a side of a tomato soup that was probably the best tomato soup I've ever had. I had the opportunity to make the chef and she was amazing describing every part of the meal in detail, and even brought out some other dishes to try! I couldn't stop eating everything was so good I had to even order an amazing lemon cake with blueberries! Friendly staff, over the top food, and a great atmosphere makes this the best place in NY for brunch.

We love a place with a cozy chill vibe and this is just that! We were lucky to take part in their fall wine dinner tonight and we’re honestly overwhelmed by the number of people that came out on a Wednesday night! It’s great to see a local place thrive like that! The food and wine were so tasty! We have been told to come check out brunch and we look forward to doing so!

Fantastic service, affordable prices, ritzy but comfortable ambiance. We LOVED it here. The bro treated me to a fancy meal, and we had so much fun. We asked for a mock tail (not on the menu), and we got one! The burger was perfectly done and delicious! The bri and pulled pork were phenomenal. Nothing bad to say!

A Manhattan experience without leaving Middletown. This is fine dining and great service. Blame management for the fail on this place. Ignored the warnings.

I found this amazing place via Google. We were on our way back to the city from the casino and were starving wanting Brunch. This place is it!!! If it was closer to the city we would most definitely come here every Sunday! The owner was very welcoming and the decor is dope. It was a busy Sunday because it is "that good"! I have never had "fig" jam. (Let me tell you fig jam and toast is it!!! ) I also need to mention the ladies restroom it is GORGEOUS!! The decor, the mirror and the light fixture. I am a fashion guru and when I walked into the ladies bano I was astounded by how clean and pretty it was.. (wish I took a photo...) Now back to the food. Flavorful, mouthwatering and the presentation!! Server and Justin were by far the best!!! 5 STARS!!! You must come here!!

Tapas style menu so if you come with an appetite be ready to order a few things off the menu. We had the lamb chops, the deviled eggs and the eggs benedict. All were excellent! (They serve their brunch menu all day as well which is pretty cool) The decor and atmosphere in this restaurant came out great and was very relaxing. Desserts were all phenomenal. We’ll definitely be back. Not to mention J the owner is a great guy and host.
