“ 5 star place 5 star experience!!!! I asked for my steak to be cooked medium well and they brought it out as medium rare but it was still very good ! I mention it to marcus our really nice and great waiter and he apologized and offered my wife and I both a free drink on the house and then the chef came over and apologized and offered us both free dessert on the house two amazing pieces of homemade cheesecake! They really took care of business!!!!! Love this place will def be back and the atmosphere is great 5 star for sure ! ”
“ Very cool spot in Clifton! We were a group of 6 and had a great time eating, drinking, and smoking. The smell of cigars was surprisingly limited and the ventilation is amazing. We were able to eat our dinner and enjoy every bite while the tables around us smoked away, and it was no issue! The steak is phenomenal, and the rest of my party enjoyed their meals as well. I'd highly recommend Jaime's for a night out, and I'll definitely be back for more! ”
“ Great atmosphere with fantastic food and friendly staff. What else could you ask for? The best part is they are open late enough so you can enjoy a nice night out without feeling rushed to leave like other places that kick you out at 8:30 so the staff can be in their car by 9pm even if there is a Big Game on or something. ”
“ Met at Jamie's for a business meeting...the atmosphere and staff were fantastic! Jenna provided amazing service and did a wonderful job of keeping our drinks fresh and our apps & dinner served in a timely manner. Great place to meet up for business or to relax and catch up with friends. ”
“ Exactly what you hope to find in a cigar bar and restaurant. Great food and drinks. Not a big cigar selection, but good choices for every pallette. Food is expensive, but on par with similar establishments. Expect to spend at least 100/person. ”
“ After enjoying the bar with a friend over cigars and incredible food I decided to take my wife who is a cigar lover to celebrate our anniversary at Jamie's. From her initial contact with Louie at the bar preparing for her the perfect dirty martini she was a fan. We enjoyed our time at the bar with oysters on the half shell and the exceptional martinis by Louie. We were then greeted by Jenna our server who would provide like Louie exceptional service and make for a memorable anniversary dinner. Donna the manager checked on us and we probably drove her crazy with our compliments to the staff from the attentive busboy to Louie and Jenna making certain that we enjoyed the incredible menu from an impressive chef and staff. My pork chop was so flavorful and prepared to perfection like everything else we enjoyed throughout the night. Cheryll loved her chicken tower tackling half of it before admitting defeat. Afterwards Jenna recommended the cheesecake which is handmade specially for Jamie's. It was smooth, creamy and full of flavor providing the perfect ending to our dinner. We then lit up and sat back to enjoy our cigars where we learned that there is NO cutting fee for outside sticks, which is a thoughtful policy. Their selection is quite impressive offering a variiety of medium to full bodied smokes by Davidoff, Padron and others. Staff often checked on us to insure an unforgettable experience making for the perfect night out. Cheryll was won over and eager to return. I can only say it must be experienced by cigar lovers and even just foodies seeking an impressive menu for it's not just for cigar fans. It offers a menu that will satisfy anyone seeking a culinary adventure with unforgettable food, cocktails and service. Thank you to Donna, and her crew for providing us with a lovely anniversary dinner. ”
“ I can say is this place is definitely amazing!! The service from the waiter Marcos to the water servers and the food chef came to the table we complimented him on the food and he turned around and said my son Ozzy had cooked it I was very impressed! Thank you all for your service and hospitality. To start we had the calamari and small board of fried shrimp fried wings home made mozzarella red peppers with filling amazing! My husband fell in love with the lamb chops, I ordered the penne vodka and the deserts were on point!! Fresh cannolis, hot lava cake with ice cream and cheesecake were all good. Yes it’s a cigar bar but they have humidified there so the smell is not bad at all. Definitely for a date night. ”
“ My friend and i were just looking for a cigar bar but i was also a little hungry. Surprisingly i had arguably the best filet mignon of my life here. it was so good. I shared a bit with the others at my table and they were in complete agreement. they had the salmon and was also very satisfied with it. I tap the guests at the table across from us who ordered the largest rack of ribs ever and i asked if that was good too and they said they order it every week. It's so good and falls of the bone. I had to meet the chef, Mike, just to tell him how impressed i was. ”
