  We found this place while shopping in SOHO. The welcome was warm from the beginning and everyone was great. Food was very good and elevated as expected for NYC. What was shocking was $3 for a piece of cheese on the burger and grilled chicken and even more was the $7 for an iced tea. No mention of a charge for iced tea refill, so imagine when I got the bill and it was another $7 for my refill. ABSOLUTELY unreal even for NYC prices. When I asked the server, who was very nice, I got a nonchalant we don’t have free refills. Nowhere did I see this on the menu and I would expect a restaurant to warn customers before refilling on something like this. I get no free refills on a bottled or canned soda, but this was PLAIN old ice tea. Ridiculous to gouge people like this at such a great restaurant.

  We just arrived in NYC from London and this was our first meal. It was absolutely delicious and the best start to our trip, we’re absolutely buzzing now. My son just declared we have to come back so that he can try the rest of the kids menu! (Which btw is only $12 and the portion was huge)

  Terminó siendo nuestro lugar favorito para desayunar en todo el viaje Literal, nos gustó tanto que volvimos tres o cuatro veces. Todo es rico, sin excepción. Es de esos lugares donde sabés que lo que pidas va a estar bien. Además, el servicio es rápido, lo cual se agradece un montón cuando estás recorriendo la ciudad y querés comer bien sin esperar. Para nosotras fue la fija del viaje.

  JWF was a good brunch spot. I went on a mid-week so I didn’t catch any of the weekend rush/wait( Personally for me a mid-week brunch is so much better than a Sunday brunch). I tried their Fried Zucchini , Green Shakshuka and Grilled Eggplant Baguette sandwich. Fried Zucchini went perfectly with the green (me and my friends fav) and red mayo dip. I was a bit disappointed by the green shakshuka , but the grilled eggplant baguette was excellent!! I was feeling a bit experimental and went with that sandwich but boy oh boy ! Am I glad that I got it. I have never enjoyed eggplant in a sandwich like that before. The cheese, tomato and eggplant complimented each other so well. It’s definitely a must try if you like eggplant ! The staff were patient and polite. Would come back to try their other items :)

  Jack’s Wife Freda delivers a fantastic dining experience with delicious food and warm, attentive service. The dishes are fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, reflecting the restaurant’s unique Mediterranean-inspired menu. The lively atmosphere adds to the charm, making it a perfect spot for a relaxed meal with consistently great hospitality. I ordered the green shakshuka, peri-peri chicken, and the rosewater waffle, and each dish was incredibly flavorful and satisfying. The green shakshuka was fresh and perfectly seasoned, while the peri peri chicken had a great balance of spice and tenderness. The rosewater waffle added a unique, lightly floral sweetness that rounded out the meal beautifully.
