Had SUCH a great time today! Jayra was an amazing waitress -- super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience fun from start to finish. Lia behind the bar was also incredible and kept the drinks coming perfectly all morning. The food was awesome, the vibes were great, and honestly one of the most fun morning out I've had in a while. Amazing service all around. Definitely coming back! Highly recommend -- ask for Jayra read more

Great for dinner or brunch went with friends and by myself for the first time since I got back home. Service was good. The atmosphere was great but small town traffic was not as great lol read more

Really good food (try the duck fat fries and refuse to feel guilty about it!) and friendly service. A fun spot with something for everyone including gluten free. read more

Was there for lunch and sat at bar. Super friendly and knowledgeable bartender. Great experience all the way around. Will be going back soon. read more

We came here after another visit to nearby New York town, and were pleased with our server. She was super friendly and accommodated my husband's gluten allergy. He had the special vanilla birch old fashioned and a barbacoa bowl and I had a burger with fries and a Sam Adams cold snap. We appreciated our bill came with two bite sized Ghirardelli chocolates. The restaurant was really quiet. Overall we would come back here again, decent food and service! read more

This is a great place for a casual dinner. I have been here twice and the staff could not be nicer. We had a little guy with us for dinner on a busy Friday night. Our server and the hostess went out of their way to make his dining experience as enjoyable as us grown ups. She explained some of her favorite menu items to my buddy and the food was great. Grilled cheese sandwiches made special for the kids. My buddy got a burger, I tried the beef Barbacoa bowl. It's a busy place on a Friday night. We got in early and sat for a 5 o'clock dinner. By the time we left at 6:30 the place was hopping and a jazz band was fired up. I will be back here for the service alone. Thank you so much! read more

For the old timers, this is the Germantown neighborhood storefront that used to be "Augie's". It's been here for over 2 years, gorgeously remodeled, very festive and modern. Tonight there was a great crowd, most seats full, a cheerful boisterous vibe. Going on. We chose to sit at the bar, had impeccable service, a delicious app and drinks. Menu had solid, creative standbys; all will be happy to go. Oh! Fun play list too. read more

Came here for brunch with my friend. The staff were very attentive and service was great. My friend got recommended one of their espresso martinis that she really enjoyed. I got a Bellini, always good. The restaurant has a great variety on their menu, anyone can find something they'd like. I got classic eggs Benny and it was so delicious! I would recommend. When we arrived it was a bit empty, I had made reservations but not sure if it was really needed. It was a really chill place. This was also the only restaurant near me that had Saturday brunch. Def recommend! read more

Went on a lark as we were just driving by. We ordered the rice balls which were so good we had to order a second bc I hate them all with the exception of one bite. They have daily deals with are quite nice. Service was great and the vibe with nice. We will be back again soon! Solid 4.5 read more

Went on whim, and so glad we did! Everything from the food, to the drinks, to the staff was great! We tell everyone to check this place out! Can't wait to come back! read more

J Law remains an absolutely favorite of mine in the area. Cocktails are fabulous, with novel twists as specials like the Reindeer Old Fashioned keeping the selection interesting. Tried the poutine for the first time, and absolutely loved it! Loaded with gravy the bowl was filled to the brim with crunchy fries and succulent pulled duck. Neither did the lava cake disappoint with its lush gooey center and not being overly sweet. And as always super friendly & fast service! read more

The holiday decor is absolutely beautiful and the holiday-themed drinks were delicious! The food was good, and the service was really friendly. We didn't feel rushed, but we were told that there was a 90-minute limit, so it was a bit of a turn-off, but we understood. read more

Good food. Pleasantly surprised. Chicken sandwich was moist and tender. Service was fast and friendly. Would go back again.

I went yesterday, December 20th, holiday season. Their place was very Christmas themed, cute and cozy. It was a bummer I couldn't order from the original drink menu as I really wanted to try one. They had craft drinks for the season that were okay and served in a fun cup but the drinks all seemed to have an extra ingredient that just didn't appeal to the over all drink. Their fingerling potato appetizer was tasty! The main entres were okay, I had the beef barbacoa bowl and over it was flavorful but the meat was dry. My fiancé had a pasta dish with chicken added and had very little flavor. The ambiance was not bad but the music playing just did not fit the crowd, it was a mix of older and younger clients. The staff was friendly and helpful read more

I like this place for lunch. They make a great margarita pizza among other great selections. Excellent service wonderful bartender and always clean and nicely decorated. Plenty of parking with easy in and easy out access read more

Came here to have dinner for my birthday and everything was FANTASTIC! Our waitress/bartender Lia was the absolute best. Very knowledgeable, attentive, quick and professional. She gave us so many good recommendations (especially her custom espresso martini). The craft drinks here are outstanding and they all have a distinct flavor I haven't tried before. I used to bartend, so I know what's out there, and it was refreshing to try interesting flavors that actually tasted amazing. The food was also incredible and came out quickly. Everything was perfect. The ambiance of the restaurant was also fantastic. The music playing was excellent and went along with the feel of the establishment. It was also very clean, and the employees seemed very organized and cheery. It's a shame that I live down in Westchester County, otherwise this would easily become a regular spot for me. I highly recommend that you try it if you're looking for something interesting and new, with the flavors and customer service to back it up! read more

Bar service was slow and non-existent. Typically not what you would expect. Food was great, fresh, flavorful, and done very well. Right temps and consistency. Just don't sit at the bar!!! read more

I was very happy with my experience at j law kitchen. I came here for the happy hour and ordered both drinks and food. For the food I got an eggplant rollatini pizza, dumplings and Brussels sprouts. I loveddd the rollatini pizza and dumplings but the Brussels sprouts could use more flavor. The drinks were amazing, I tried a watermelon one and a passion fruit one. Delicious overall! Great happy hour specials, would love more food options. Service was fast, lots of seating available at the bar and great decorations for the holidays. read more

The food was excellent. My friend and I were happily surprised. The service was also excellent, friendly, informative and the food came at a good pace. The ambiance was a little loud because of some sort of party in the main dining area, but all in all, a very good dining experience. read more

Food, service, and staff were all phenomenal but it was far too noisy for us. We had a hard time hearing each other at our table of three and literally had to yell at each other to talk. read more

Had dinner at J Law with my sister for the first time. We had dinner,and a dessert. J Law has a great vibe. Right when we entered the restaurant we had a great convo with the women at the front about the talking and moving Santa. I ordered the short rib noodle bowl. The soba noodle is a stickier noodle but mine was in a clump. This does not deter me from J Law at all because the short rib was tender and delicious and overall flavor - Yum! I obviously need to be honest about what I experienced. My sister's pizza the drunk in shrimp was so good - the blackened shrimp and the vodka sauce - great combo. To finish off our meal we shared a chocolate chip cookie with ice cream skillet. I am remembering how melty those warm chocolate chip cookie was and the perfect creamy ice cream. Hope to bring my husband to J Law next - a must try! read more

As a fan of J Lawrence back in the day, I was happy to read about the opening of J Law Kitchen and Craft Bar! I came with some friends for lunch on Sunday. Overall, the food was really nice and did not disappoint. The place is new so there are a few parts of the service that could be ironed out, but everyone was super friendly and nice. Once they figured out who would take care of our table, the friendly waiter was very helpful. We started out with arancini and the hot donuts. Both were good, but the arancini were real standouts! I had "The Cure" sandwich, which was very good. The portion was big and I could only eat about half of the potatoes. When paying the bill, rather than splitting it like we asked, one card was charged for the full amount so that had to be credited. The waiter was friendly and transparent about it so it wasn't an issue, just a small glitch that is an opportunity for improvement. The only thing that was a little bit of a downer was the noise level. It was so loud in the place...there are no soft surfaces to absorb sounds and there were two tables of folks who were enjoying the mimosas with their brunch and they got so loud that it was impossible to hear the people at my own table. Maybe some cushioned chairs or a few well placed acoustic panels would help there but my head was pounding by the time we left and I was thankful for the relative quite once we stepped outside. Lots of potential here with great food and a super friendly staff and hope to put it in my regular rotation soon. read more

Have been to J law for happy hour and dinners multiple times and always find the staff to be welcoming and helpful. They have lots of weekly specials so I recommend checking those out as well as the delicious cocktails. The pizza is delicious as well as the sandwiches. They have delicious apps and a big variety on their menu for everyone. We have gone on date night and with a big group and always recall great service and food. read more

The food was mediocre at best. Had the lobster roll and for $30 there was nearly any lobster and the fry's were not all that. Also a Peach salad and maybe half a peach read more

Needed a place to wait out traffic after an event at Candlewood Lake. Happy hour at J Law fit the bill. Our waitress Leah was very friendly and checked on us several times . The highlight was my husband's beer which he claims is the coldest he has ever been served. My blueberry vodka lemonade was also well made. The wings and dumplings were not the most tasty we have ever had . The wings needed more sauce and the dumplings were a little dry. Despite that I would recommend stopping by . Having a good ice cream shop in same plaza is also a plus. read more

The food was delicious. The service was terrific and the ambiance was pleasant. The $5 martinis were very good!

Wow, what a great experience at J.Law. I think that was one of the best old fashioneds I have ever had. Lady had a spicy margarita and that also was amazing. I would love to try some more, their cocktail menu looked top notch! I ordered the blackened scallop taco special, and they were great. Service was fantastic, attentive but not overbearing. Looks like they might have recently updated the interior from what I was hearing. Looks fantastic! I'm not often in the area, but next time I am, I will certainly be keeping this one on the short list. Visit! read more

The blonde lady working the hostess station was incredibly friendly and warm. This place is just so cute, clean, and has a lot of different food options. This time we ordered the pretzel app and that was delicious. The cheese sauce was awesome and they gave us two cups of it! So we didn't have to share we got our own. I got the caprese sandwich with truffle fries. The fries had a perfect amount of truffle. The sandwich sort of lacked in the inside. Small piece of chicken, little mozz, and 4 tomatoes. I feel like sliced tomatoes would make more sense as the cherry just rolled out! I also think adding some basal and balsamic glaze would level this up. Ooo and even like pressing it like a panini to give the bread a nice crunch!. The vodka sauce was awesome and really helped the dryness of the sandwich. We also got the salmon BLTA which had a great mayo on it. This sandwich I also felt lacked inside, the salmon was a small piece and often when you bit into the sandwich all you got was bread. The sourdough bread was great though. We substituted fries for a Caesar salad. I love that they had pretzel croutons and it was dressed PERFECTLY. We didn't order any drinks this time. I look forward to trying more menu items! Thank you for having us! read more

I went to brunch with my girls and Jayra and Lia were genuinely the best staff ever. Jayra was the best waitress I've ever had and I recommend this place 10/10 times!!! I LOVE JLAW read more

I had heard of J. Lawrence when they had their Bethel location, but had never made it down there, so I was super excited to come check out their Danbury location after hearing such good things. I think it's so awesome that they offer a separate gluten free menu as well. Their selection of craft cocktails and unique takes on American food were impressive. Some of our favorite items from the night were the chorizo pie and the potato smashers! Great vibe and love the beautiful murals on the wall. So many great weekly specials are offered in addition to their happy hour throughout the week! Our server was great, and we were impressed at how quickly all of the food came out. We plan to come back for brunch and can't wait! read more

We just moved to the area and decided to check out the happy hour at J Law. While we've only tried an appetizer so far, I was pleasantly surprised. The beet hummus was delicious, the cheese added good saltiness and the pistachios added good texture. The bread is like a pizza crust and absolutely delicious. Made us excited to try more! The everything nice cocktail is one of the best cocktails I have tried. A nice whiskey taste with some fruity notes and the char from the burnt orange. Not sure I'll even try any other cocktails after how good this one is, although my boyfriend enjoyed the vanilla birch old fashioned as well. Service was great at the bar and the seating is nice. A clean, modern feel. read more

OMG. This was my first time here and we came for a birthday dinner. We ordered as appetizers the Smashed Potatoes and the Burrata with pears. The first taste and we were blown away. For the main course we ordered Shrimp Tacos and French Dip both with Truffle Fries. My daughter said the Shrimp Tacos were very good and I had the French Dip. The French Dip was made with slow smoked Brisket and I have to admit it was amazing. The only issue we had was the fries were a little too salty The staff was very attentive and friendly. This will be my go to place going forward. You have to go and try it. I promise you won't be disappointed read more

Ok so we were at Costco, wanted a French dip went to Widow Browns not realizing they were closed - for business, done , so thank you yelp peeps for recommendations on J Law. Well they had a French dip, and everything sounded good so instead I went with the Chicken Caprese sandwich (amazing) my husband had the J Law smash burger equally delicious, he said it was one of the best he's ever had- the Caprese has a side of vodka sauce which I could have just drank a gallon of - genius sandwich and of course a French dip went by to another customer now we have to go back. Cute clean place and Trevor is great. Will be back soon for sure . read more

Great food, diverse menu, friendly service, happy hour specials. Can't wait to go back and try more!

Quaint restaurant and bar in a small plaza. Cocktail menu looked great, though I didn't try any. Loved the Arancini appetizer with the spicy fra diavolo sauce. The Nashville hot chicken sandwich was tasty and the truffle fries were decent, but didn't have a ton of truffle flavor. Service was fine. Would come back for a happy hour to try some cocktails next time and maybe split some apps. read more
