I had a weekday dinner reservation here and loved my experience! The weather was nice so there were plenty of people sitting outside. We had a table indoors right by the window so it was perfect. The interior is nautical themed which was a nice touch. Our waiter was hilarious and we loved his vibe. Service was attentive and quick. My group ordered a bunch of things to share. Oysters: 8/10 so fresh! Crab dip and whitefish dip: 8/10 Honestly they felt pretty similar to me, I'd just get one next time. But both were delicious and creamy Tuna tartare: 8.5/10 this is served with the house potato chip which was a delicious combination. Light and refreshing Lobster roll: 8/10 this wasn't too heavy which I appreciated. Good amount of lobster. We got one with the potato chips and one with the fries, but I'd just get the fries next time The cocktails we got were also very good. I can't remember the name of the one I got, but it had tequila, coconut, and soursop and it was incredible! I enjoyed this visit and would come back. read more

Service was warm and genuinely attentive without being try-hard. Our server did an amazing job walking us through the oysters, explaining the flavor profiles. The crab dip was a standout -- warm, rich, and perfectly snacky with Ritz crackers. Comfort food done right. Mains were strong across the board. The steak au poivre was perfectly cooked and came with old-bay seasoned fries -- slightly light on the Old Bay for my taste, but they had a great crisp. The lobster spaghetti came out piping hot and was absolutely delicious. Favorite moment of the night: the "Toddy with a Body." On a cold winter evening, it was perfect. It tasted like spiced mulled wine and came in mismatched mugs, which somehow perfectly matched the homey, nautical vibe of the space. Desserts on the regular menu looked tempting, but we went for the bagel bread pudding special. It was fine, but not a repeat order -- could've been warmer and a bit less dry. Minor miss in an otherwise excellent meal. Overall, Jeffery's Grocery is a fantastic spot for a date night or a dinner with friends. Exactly the kind of place you want to keep in your rotation. read more

This is a great restaurant for an imitate dinner! The interior js dark and moody with a classy dive bar feel. They are known for seafood, and the seafood tower did not disappoint. Service was friendly and warm. Make sure to make a reservation ahead of time, because there were no empty tables. Also, I absolutely loved the decor behind the bar area seating, and if you didn't make a reservation, try to scan for open seating here. And if you've watched the Materialists, you can see the outside of this restaurant in the opening scene :) read more

Perfect for seafood lovers. The true highlight here is the staff. The restaurant was running behind and the manager, Natalie was kind enough to cover the first round. I ordered the Velvet Island (vacation in a class). We ordered the Le Prince to share-loved the oysters and shrimp cocktail, could have done without the clams and crab salad(lacked flavor). For our mains, we got the lobster spaghetti, lobster roll and steak frites. My friends really enjoyed their mains. Again the lobster roll was just okay. Natalie was kind enough to off the Caesar salad and it was delicious. I'd def get that and the shrimp cocktail again. I want to go back for brunch. read more

Jeffrey's is a quaint restaurant with a lively atmosphere. Was seated promptly and server was informative on specials. Ordered the tuna tartare appetizer, le prince seafood, and the lobster roll with fries. They have an extensive drinks list as well. The tuna came first, and this was one of my favorites. Nice temperature dipped with chips. Chips are also good alone. The seafood dish I ordered came with 10 oysters, 4 little neck clams, 4 shrimp and a crab salad. It was okay, don't think I would order it again. There wasn't one thing that stood out on there. Lobster roll came with fries but it is extra. It was hot, and buttery. It is pricey here but you do get what you pay for. Nice to try if you are in the area and have a reservation or be prepared to wait or sit at the bar seats which are limited. read more

Made a reservation on open table for this restaurant. Our server was great. Good food, the chef even went out of his way to get Tabasco for my husband for the oysters. We also got Cesar salad and lobster roll. The lobster roll probably would have been better with heated bread. I was impressed that the Cesar salad was a high degree of lettuce I think young kale. Cute place with limited seating there is outside but nobody was wanting to sit there as it was so cold the day we visited. Tip make a reservation on open table because there is very limited seating inside, they do have a covered patio and uncovered patio as well read more

Very cute seafood forward spot in the village. We got a bunch of stuff to share including the oysters, shrimp cocktail, salad, lobster roll and crab dip. The 2 must try for me would be the shrimp cocktail and crab dip! read more

Stopped in for lunch on my daughter's recommendation of places to eat while visiting NYC. It's a very small and quaint location on the corner. Really nice inside and my server was Roden and he did an excellent job! I ordered the lobster roll which I was told is a house favorite. I also added the French fries for $4 and I'm glad I did. Lobster roll was a good size portion and was very tasty. The fries were light and crispy. An absolute perfect combination! read more

A cute spot for a seafood brunch tucked away in West Village -- they have a ton of great outdoor seating, waiters were very nice. The Breakfast Platter was delicious -- super fresh, tons of variety, good to split if you like to sample a ton of things. Pacific Oysters were yummy! Obligatory pancakes for the table were great too. I'd definitely come back! read more

good food, good drinks, great ambience. only thing that could improve are the prices, but that's expected for the area. I also wish that they have a few more options for friends/family who don't like seafood, but only because I love bringing people to this place! read more

This is such a good "pop in" spot for a strong martini (extra dirty) and a shared bite. The crab dip with Ritz crackers hit all the salty umami notes I was craving with my drink. The vibe was a little loud for chatting with my date, but that's to be expected on the last Saturday night before the polar vortex fell upon us. read more

Excellent little spot in the west village. Had to wait for a table but it was only 15 minutes. While this is a seafood heavy place they have a few vegetarian options. I mostly just wanted a martini and my friend wanted oysters. She said the oysters were delicious! I got the kale Caesar and some fries. Loved the setting outside and the staff were some of the friendliest! read more

The caesar salad and kobocha bisque were life changing lobster pasta was also delicious, but the salad and soup literally blew my mind. Fries and crab dip were just fine and straightforward.

Sunday brunch - we got lucky with such good weather that we had an option to sit outdoors or indoors , both equally appealing . We opted and sat right by the window in the front which is the perfect place . The place is small , cozy , well decorated and within theme - seafood . Their brunch menu has so many great options and since I've had my mind set on the lobster roll , that's what I got with a the chips . I'm glad I didn't have a change of heart as it was delicious , just the right amount of lobster in the traditional bread doused with butter and lemon on the side . We shared some oysters and my friends both had the lobster omelette which they seemed to have enjoyed as well , both plates were polished off. I normally have an alcoholic beverage with brunch and the lobster roll would pair nicely with a glass of white or bubbles but being under the weather , orange juice sufficed . I would love to come back for dinner and explore the menu which I expect to be equally as delectable. Service was exceptional, helpful , friendly , attentive and the pacing and timing was on point . read more

Yes, GREAT. Had a super quick 36-hour trip back to NYC and was eager to get in a seafood meal. My niece was able to snag a reservation at Jeffrey's Grocery which I knew of but never had a chance to try before leaving New York 5 years ago. And again, yes, this was a GREAT meal. We began with a half dozen West Coast Oysters. No idea what they specifically were, but a nice medium size with a buttery finish. We also shared the crab dip (delicious) and olives. The tuna tartare with homemade BBQ potato chips were a delight. The best tartare I have had in a while, and a large enough portion that along with the apps, was more than enough as a main dish. Rest of the family had the lobster roll and spaghetti with lobster. The food tasted fresh, everything was seasoned to perfection, and portion sizes seemed just right. Plates were cleaned and the service really could not have been any better. Truly a service with a smile establishment. I shall return! read more

Back again to Jeffrey's Grocery and it did not disappoint. This time I brought my nephew - a real foodie. Cocktails were excellent and our server was knowledgeable on the tequila's they offer - my preference. We started with the crab dip and fried artichokes- both delicious! While I consumed mussels my nephew chose steak frites and we were both happy. My only criticism was the bread pudding, which in my opinion was too much bread and not enough pudding. (See photo below) Try another dessert if you are in the mood. The place was packed, but we were still able to have a conversation and our server was delightful. Overall, a great place to celebrate the holidays or any other occasion. read more

I would say 3.5 stars but since my girlfriend liked her meal so much I'm giving the extra half. We started with the crab dip. I thought it was ok but lacked flavor. My gf really liked it. For mains, she ordered the lobster pasta. We both thought it was excellent. Nice flavor, a fair amount of lobster and the bread crumbs on top really finished it nicely. I ordered the lobster roll. Thought it was only fair. Not much flavor and a very small portion. It was cooked well but just average imo. For dessert, we ordered the chocolate mousse tote dessert and the olive oil cake. The chocolate dessert was ok but very rich. The olive oil cake was horrible! We took two bites and that was all we could take. Tasted like old stale cake with oil on it. Our server was very nice and took very good care of us. I only wish I liked my food as much as my gf. Food was overpriced for the portion size also. read more

In town to visit our niece who works here. She really wanted us to come eat and meet her coworkers. So glad we came. Food was very good and the service was beyond great. Definitely recommend this restaurant. Next time in town, we will be back! read more

Super cute spot to catch up with a friend over a drink and bites!! While we chose to sit outside and enjoy a cool summer evening, the interior was nautical-themed. We each chose a cocktail, I got the espresso martini (with pistachio flavoring) while my friend got a margarita which had a hint of habanero. Both were delicious! Food-wise, we shared a Caesar salad, crab dip, and lobster roll. The bagel flavoring and chips added a fun and unique element to the salad. We also enjoyed the Ritz paired with the crab dip (in addition to the big portion!). Lobster roll was good, it was New England style so cold with mayo. While I typically skew more Connecticut style (hot w/ butter) for lobster rolls, I thoroughly enjoyed it at Jeffrey's Grocery!! We were able to sub out the chips for fries which had a delightful old bay seasoning... and yes we did keep the crab dip to dip some of the fries in! Our server was really friendly and fun, and we didn't feel rushed at all. I really appreciated that since we had a lot to catch up on from the last few months! Jeffrey's Grocery was the perfect place for a gal dinner on a summer evening. Looking forward to returning! read more

Exceptional service and kindness. Amazing menu. Great ambiance and decorations along the walls. Very clean bathroom.

I love, love Joseph Leonard's, but when I was unable to get a reservation, I tried Jeffrey's (across the street and owned by the same people). The menu is similar-ish to Joseph Leonard's, but with a "fish flair." While I'm a seafood lover (and we tried just about everything on the menu), I prefer Joseph Leonard's for both brunch and dinner. read more

Drinks were great, shoutout to the bartender for a really tasty bloody caesar and bloody mary. Staff were really accommodating and attentive. Their seafood wasn't my favorite - shrimp was overcooked and oysters served really plainly. read more

I've come here twice in the last month and love how friendly and personable the staff is. They are all so attentive and sweet! My first stop in I sat at the bar and got a great gin martini. It's true what they say, this was one of the best martinis I've had in the city. Our second trip we sat outside in the shade and got the espresso martini with tequila and the old fashion. They were so perfectly made yet simple- I loved them. The shrimp cocktail had this nice seasoning on it and their crab dip was fantastic, not a cheesy milky mess like a lot of crab dips I've tried. read more

Came to get some dinner with a friend. Absolutely loved the crab dip and watermelon salad. So simple but so fresh. This was also a really good lobster roll. The roll itself was on the smaller side but was stuffed nicely with meat. I also liked that this lobster salad version had some creamy bits but also some texture and chunky pieces. I don't have a wide range of experience when it comes to mussels but I did really enjoy these and their accompanied sauce. For some reason when we dined in the restaurant itself was quite hot, I'm not sure if the A/C wasn't working or on that day so it was slightly stuffy in here. Overall the atmosphere is quite cute though and I thought the service was nice and helpful. read more

This place is cute. It was surprisingly empty on a Sunday at noon, and the reservation wasn't too difficult to make. The inside isn't too large but they offer outdoor seating as well. The interior has a strong nautical sense, which is understandable, given their extensive raw bar. I had their burger for brunch, and it was decent. It wasn't the best burger I've ever had. It was definitely on the saltier side, but the portion size was good, the fries were crispy, and I enjoyed the sauce it came with. I am a huge hot sauce fan, so I liked their green and red hot sauces that were on every table. Everyone was very nice here as well! I enjoyed my experience overall. read more

Jeffrey's Grocery is a cute brunch spot that specializes in seafood. I ordered the bagel + lox which came with a hearty serving of lox. However, I thought the bagel was quite mid.

Very nice dinner tonight. We shared the tuna tataki (excellent) lobster spaghetti (very good, but needed lots of black pepper for our taste), chilled asparagus and some garlic bread to sop up the pasta sauce. The place is tiny and we were lucky to get a table at 6:30pm. For those who want quiet with their dinner, please note this is NOT the place. My only note about the food is that they should put less of that mayo dressing on the asparagus- the veg was drowning in it. Other than that, we enjoyed our meal. read more

One of my favorite spots in West Village! The space is pretty small and intimate while still being a relaxed and casual feel. Staff has always been friendly and prompt. The tuna tartare is fantastic and generous sized. The lobster roll in the past has always been a solid choice however on this visit it had verrry minimal lobster meat which was a bummer for the price. The lobster spaghetti is also a home run. Oysters are always super fresh and delicious. It's tucked on the corner of a quiet neighborhood and it's the perfect spot for a date night or casual meet-up! read more

Hands down my favorite seafood in the city. When I have a seafood lover friend visiting, we always come here. Splurge for the tower because everything is so delicious on it! The shrimp are top notch. If you don't go for brunch, make sure to order the BLOODY CAESAR!!!! It's life changing! Comes with a beer shooter & it's SO good. Dinner is amazing here too with all their apps really standing out. The lobster pasta is incredible & their salmon bagel brunch board is perfect for a few people to share!!! HIGHLY recommend! Service is always impeccable here and inside, it is decorated so beautifully & so cozy. Also sitting outside on a beautiful is great because the street is blocked off! Been here 5+ times & will always recommend. read more

100% yes From the incredibly friendly service to the atmosphere and food, this place was delightful. Ordered at the table: Latkes (deliciously crispy & came with crème fraîche). Side of eggs (also came with toast). Smoked Trout (a perfectly small portion that was filling but not overly so). Eggs & hash (looked quite satisfying but didn't try myself). The drinks were rather expensive but I found that to be par for the course in NYC. Would highly recommend visiting. read more
