Best meal I've had in a long time!! Compliments to the chef!! Our Table ordered the ribeye, scallops, pork chop, and fillet. All cooked to perfection, and fantastic beet salad, all at a decent price. And Lynn was an EXCELLENT server, attentive, funny and made sure my birthday dinner was great. ? Will be back often !

My group was a party of five (one missing spouse) who recently enjoyed a great evening at J Bistro Downtown Sanduski. The food, drinks and service were all excellent! I enjoyed Scallops over Risotto… perhaps the best I had anywhere. Cocktails were served in generous glasses. Good selection of tasty desserts... excellent Crème Brûlée.The atmosphere, particularly due to the soft lighting, was very pleasant.Bottom line, don’t hesitate to enjoy an evening at J Bistro Downtown Sandusky… you won’t be disappointed!

This one is tough. The food was executed correctly but it lacked flavor. For example every was under salted/seasoned, cream sauces needed more cream/butter, desserts needed more flavor, etc. Our server was very nice, but service was inconsistent (rushed as asking what we wanted to eat 2 seconds after sitting and bringing the check while we working on desserts yet and slow at the same time, ie. Drinks took a long time and they never came back to see if we wanted another one…). Two stars overall.

Fine dining, but not stuffy! The food and drinks were absolutely wonderful, service was excellent. We visited for our 5 year anniversary and they gave us a complimentary dessert. Everything about our meal was wonderful, I highly recommend for a special night out.
Really good steaks, great atmosphere and staff. Decent pricing too

I wouldn’t classify this restaurant as fine dining. We went on a Friday night and it was an extremely loud cafeteria like atmosphere. Service was slow. We ordered shrimp tacos as an appetizer and it was covered in shredded cheddar cheese. I’ve never seen a shrimp taco at a served this way. We ordered steaks and when our food came out they said they were out of mashed potatoes and served us mashed sweet potatoes which we don’t like. The server did offer to bring fries, but they never came until we finished our meal. The steak was cooked nice and tasted good. But for the price we paid and the experience we had, it wasn’t worth it.
