Jamies in Clifton

[Susan]

Has anyone been here and could you give me some feedback on the place? Thanks.

Yes - we were there recently and had a nice meal. Nothing revolutionary, but good fresh food, large portions, flavorful. An older crowd. I'd say it depends on what you're looking to do and with whom. If you're looking for a quiet restaurant to go to with family members, say, or for a business dinner, Jamie's would be just fine. But if you're looking for a happening scene, cutting edge presentations, etc. i think you'd be disappointed.

Can either of you tell us about the type of restaurant, location, etc.? Thanks!

Curlz - here is a link to their website - they are located in Clifton next to the Home Depot and right off the Allwood Circle.

my first thoughts exactly.

but if they're for real, i guess they're taking a porterhouse, cutting off the strip, and trimming the bone next to the filet. i've never had a filet on a bone without the strip, though. and if they're aging this filet, even better i suppose.

they can keep their blue cheese, however. not on my steak thank you.

I went there with some friends about 3 months ago. dennis, the chef owner, came from Borellis on Rt 3 E in Secaucus. He does a mean app. of jumbo shrimp wrapped in proscuito, broiled & served on a bed of broccoli rape on top of a garlic bread crouton. The some little necks broiled & topped with lump crabmeat.

The bonus for all you cigar afficionados is that you can smoke at the bar and at the tables in the front room.

You know it's funny that you mentioned the cigars. I was there for dinner for the first time last night and on the way out there were quite a few people at the bar smoking and many of them smoking cigars. I was wondering how they could do that since the no smoking ban went into affect. Is this considered a cigar bar even though it is a restaurant?
