A brief introduction of JJ's ..... Nice ambience , spacious , top notch service , great music with live performances and superb quality food.

The steaks are good and perfectly cooked but sides are ordered and charged separately. The entrees are also good but extremely tiny portions and rather plain. Their dessert and cheese platters are to die for.

JJ's also offers a huge range of exciting wines, cocktails as well as mocktails but it took the bartenders quite a while to serve us our drinks .

Approximate cost: $40

This restaurant has been one of my favourites for a few years now.

Service is amazing, food is always spot on!

We once came in on our anniversary and we were offered two glasses of Frech Champagne free of charge. When we advised them we don't actually drink, they went off and made us 2 of the most delicious Mocktails I have ever had in my life! It was amazing!

Recommended foods:
Tasting plate is expensive, but amazing little samples of food.
Spagetti Marinara with white wine sauce is to die for! So fresh and lovely.
Steaks are good, but I don't like that they don't come with anything except the sauce of your choice so you will need to add sides to your meal.

They do the best cheese platter for desert too! Highlight for me as I love good quality cheese platters.

Highly recommend you try this place NOT on a weekend. The weekday atmosphere is better and you will get more attentive staff too!

A New York Style Bar and Grill, this restaurant offers great steaks and seafood.

A large range of steaks are on offer with different cuts and sauces to mix and match to your preference and a full range of sauces are also on offer (about six different types of mustard, tomato sauce, ketchup etc).

Apart from that there's a good range of other meats and seafood to enjoy from duck, kangaroo and ribs to fish, seafood platters and crayfish.

All items are freshly cooked (the steak did take some time because I like medium to well done) however everything comes out at the same time so you don't have some people eating whilst others are waiting.

The decor of the place is as if you were in New York at a high class grill. There is music/entertainment on Saturday evenings if you like to hear someone sing whilst you have dinner too!

Approximate cost: $60

Fancy, fancy fancy. In a good and bad way. The staff are very attentive and knowledgeable and friendly. They were even nice enough to bring some lemon water to my boyfriend who wasn't feeling well. They are real hospitality service pros. Food is delicious, but pricey. I had the main twice cooked duck which was delicious and quality. But the main only had 4, yes only 4 ravioli on the plate. Whilst they were large in size, maybe an egg ring size, but not much filling. That's nearly $10 a pop per ravioli. The dessert ( ice cream basket) was spectacular though. Well worth it! So here is good for a special occasion, not really unless you're wiling to spend $50 per person on a casual dinner ( not including drinks). Also, thumbs up for the intimate atmosphere!

Approximate cost: $40

I've been here twice, and both times were very good.

On the last occasion, my entree (a sampler of many entrees), main (steak) and sides (potatoes), and wine were all above average. Nothing was one of the best I've had, but they were all above average.

The service has always been excellent, they are very professional, fast, efficient and attentive. The speed is good and it didn't take us long for all of us to receive our food. The environment is also very nice, it's quite formal but not overly so. As for the value, the food is very good and it isn't overly expensive for a formal restaurant, so the value is pretty good too.

Overall, it's a very good restaurant and I would return.
