    The food was fresh and tasted amazing. Had the sea bass, 10/10. Had every raw oyster they had available and loved every single one. The broccolini Caesar was amazing as well. Will definitely go back to try the crab fried rice.

    I am so glad my girlfriend and I ended up here. After a long day in the city during the holidays, we had reservations and were looking for an intimate yet engaging space. a.kitchen was exactly that. Extraordinary service, lovely win, fantastic food. We both enjoyed everything about this dinner experience, and will definitely be back! Shoutout the staff for holding the item we forgot and giving us a call, great hospitality. Side note from a boyfriend, thanks for helping me make this date night unique and fun. Thanks for not rushing our food, this place is meant for conversating and we were able to do just that! Highly recommend!

    This was our first time dining at JG, overall the experience was amazing. The staff is extremely attentive, knowledgeable and enjoyable. We choose the tasting menu, one of us tried the "from the earth" menu- it was so creative and you think about vegetarian dishes very differently. The "land and sea" was also amazing. There was some debate at our table how well the cabbage and lobster dish worked together but overall an absolutely amazing experience!

    I have been here a few times for lunch. Once again, it was great. My party was 2 people and we sat in a booth with a window on Market Street. The service was great.!! We ordered 4 apps and three entrees. The apps delivered first and the main meals about 30 min later which was perfect time to eat and catch up with my friend. The food was all served hot and tasted great. Overall, a great visit. Thank you, Continental Midtown!!!!
