John J Jeffries Restaurant

John J Jeffries knocked it out of the park. If you're visiting Lancaster, this restaurant is a must-try. The service was excellent. Not just our waiter, but everyone at the front of the house was bringing their A game. The team here was working in harmony, with good communication and dedication to making sure we had a good experience. My fiancée had a gluten sensitivity, and this was well accommodated. The managers of this establishment should be commended. The food was just excellent. Their seasonal menu changes often, but everything tasted very high quality. The flavors were often complex and sophisticated without being too strong or overwhelming. The "surf and turf" was, as my fiancee declared, something she'd feel luxurious eating every day. The shrimp and grits and beef tartare are both excellent as well. Sharing a few small plates is definitely the way to go. By the time we finished the meal, we were already talking about when we'd next get the chance to come back. And last note: the good price! Not inexpensive, but absolutely reasonable given the service, environment, and high quality of the food. The owners here are definitely keeping a modest profit margin here, and it makes me eager to come back.

Food passes 5 gold stars for sure! Appetizer, entre, and dessert were all delicious and beautifully presented. The cocktails were also very tasty. Service was friendly and very knowledgeable to the menu. She was very understanding and made knew all the gluten free options available. This was very important for us. Venue is elegant and clean, my boyfriend and I enjoyed our evening here. I highly recommend you book a table!
