This restaurant exceeded all of mine and my familys expectations. You do not often find a place where every element comes together so perfectly. I'll be recommending to all my friends and family. The service we received was professional and warm, which added a personal touch to our morning, and we left feeling thoroughly satisfied. From the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for a treat. The entire experience was wonderful, from the delicious food to the attentive service to the charming ambiance.

Came here for a family members birthday & had a great time. The decor was beautiful and has a feel of your grandmothers kitchen. The coffee was delicious! I ordered cafe de olla and I typically don't drink it black and this coffee was made so well that I was able to drink it with no additions. For food, I ordered the chilaquiles verdes with steak. The portion was big, I took food home because I couldn't finish the food. The chips in the chilaquiles were nice and crunchy/crispy. My family ordered many other items and they all looked delicious as well. My entire table said their food was delicious.

First time here & came for our brunch date. Service was was good no complaints Inside was was smaller than expected. Was a little to dark for us was hoping a brighter lightning but music selection made up for the vibes. Parking is valet very small, so I'd say you must make a reservation for the best experience arriving as they will park for you and walk away to check in. FOOD: TRES LECHES FRENCH TOAST All I can say is hands down one of the best unique French toast I've ever had within its Mexican flavors category. Combination of flavors, savory, and not to sweet at all! It was pricey for French toast $20 however I'd say a signature dish with its flavor reasons it out on pricing. CHILAQUILES GREEN TOMATILLO These we're great! Sauce was fill of flavor, chips were both slightly soft and crunchy. Generous with sauce. My only complaint is, this is the only places I have dined in for chilaquiles and they do not include at least one egg. I'd say an eggs is definitely a chilaquile staple if not included on top at least on the side. By adding egg it makes these $20. 5$ for an egg is a-bit much for an add on as it doesn't come with one already. HORCHATA LATTE 10/10

I recently dined at Jardin for dinner and it truly lived up to the hype I'm seeing all over social media. First off, the interior is stunning. Such dreamy romantic lighting at night, and the decor was gorgeous! Felt like we were actually away on a vacation in Mexico. We got their Margarita Flight that came with 3 full size margs - Límon, Fresa, and Sandia Pepino (this one was our favorite). We got huge appetizer platter, 'Sabor a Mexico' and holy moly. This was incredible. We loved the chorizo empanadas. Super crispy and flavorful, and the asada quesadillas melted in your mouth. For entrees we had to get the 'Carne y Camaron', which was the filet mignon with 3 giant shrimp with parmesan mashed potatoes black truffle drizzle and espanola brown sauce. This was FIRE. Cooked perfectly, and the presentation is awesome. 'Las Tres Enchiladas' had a green creamy pesto shrimp, chicken chipotle and fuego queso flavor. Really rich sauces and dare I say this was far better than Javier's. It was. And then for dessert, we got the 'Dulce Trio' with hot chocolate covered churros, flan, and rice pudding. Flavors here were on point. This alone could easily feed 3-5 people. Not to mention, staff was super attentive and friendly. Shoutout to waitress Michelle! We can't wait to be back and try brunch.

Came here to celebrate a friend's birthday and was definitely blown away by the incredible service and experience. I loved that they had cakes you could order for a birthday, and they even sang to our friends! The inside makes you feel like you're in Vegas with the sky painting on the ceiling. It is a bit dark there, but I think it fits the vibe very well. My friends and I got the flight mimosas, and all of them were so good! I also tried the horchata latte, which was good, but it didn't really have much of a horchata flavor to it. I also got the empanadas which came with pickled onions and avocado. I felt like it was all together, well balanced, and delicious. This seems like a great place to celebrate as they can accommodate large parties.

They close at 2:30 but they also took a reservation for our party for 2:30 so when we arrived, the valet said they were already closed but our friends were inside at our table so it took 5-10 minutes for them to go check to see if we could park. Just a note, valet was nice despite the mix up. Service was good. Everyone who came to our table was very kind but at the end of the meal we could see everyone hanging around waiting for us to finish up so at the end it did feel rushed which was unfortunate. They really need to rethink taking reservations at that time if they want to go when they are supposed to be closed because it honestly felt uncomfortable and is why I took one star. Food was good; portion sizes were huge. We honestly could have split dishes and we would have been more than full. The empanadas wwre really good and the chilaquiles with the aguacate salsa was I think my favorite dish and if I were to ever go back, I would get that without any hesitation. I got the eggs Benedict and it was good, not great but good. If I could give 3.5 instead of a 4 I would.

Absolutely love this place - highly recommendation! Very delicious food and a very cute atmosphere. I would like to say that the space jnsjde is kind of small but I think they do a really good job with making sure service goes fast and they do have a strict time policy especially when they're very busy which is understandable. I made a reservation both times I went and we didn't wait long to be seated. One thing I would like to advise people of is the parking, it's very small so it's valet only and can get full quickly over the weekend. If you can, I highly recommend going during the week and it's less packed. Now to the food - gosh everything we tried was DELICIOUS! I highly recommend their jardín slam with chipotle sauce chilaquiles. Love love love! I believe they have a few sauces to choose from which is very nice. I also recommend their hot chocolate, so sweet and amazing. Honestly, everything in the menu is a must try. Their chorizo con papa empanadas are a great starter! I can't wait to go back and just tried more of their great dishes.
