Miss A.

What happened to this place?? The fact is the food use to be amazing. For me, it was worth the drive and (although pricey) the cost. I’m reminded how far they’ve fallen every time I return. The short rib was excessively sweet, cold collard greens with too many stems, bland macaroni and cheese, and chicken selections along with everything else is hit or miss. Desserts 0/10 do not recommend! Unfortunately this will be my last visit here.

The presentation and freshness of the food at Jacobs was AMAZING! So many varieties and the food was always well stocked. My biggest problem was that the food was very bland. I was so dissapointed as I was looking forward to have a tasty meal and I got the complete opposite. I did read reviews prior to eating here that did mention this but ignored it.

Wonderful, very tasty, authentic food to take home or to eat there. Live music (weekends) played with great spirits. We went there as visitors-tourists and it was one of our best experiences in NYC.
