I went for the first time to Jardin Nelson for lunch & it was truly charming. I enjoyed literally everything, it's a true gem.

I am a regular here. However, tonight was my worst experience yet & I am not sure I'll be coming back anytime soon. My crepe order was completely botched with multiple ingredients missing & my specific request for removing the olives was not complied with at all. The salad I ordered also didn't taste fresh & overall, I was left with a completely unsatisfactory experience & a fear of eating out ever again due to the fact that I have a severe eating disorder & this meal was beyond disappointing for someone who is ultra restrictive & selective with her food intake. Eating in general, but particularly at restaurants is very challenging for me & this meal was beyond sub par & traumatizing for me.

J'ai trouvé le temps d'attente pour recevoir les plats principaux & desserts un peu long

This place used to have a charm. Now?
+60 for a horrendous frozen burger & yesterday's salad. This should be illegal. The Sangria ($48) was just ok.
