Jimmy Hays ,we have been there many times..was always good until the last visit. Something has changed and not for the better. The service was horrible. We frequent many top tier steak houses. Always considered JH an excellent steak house until last night. We didn't even get to look at wine list when it was whisked away. Told making room. Really??? Ordered cocktails and a pelligrino. They brought a Saratoga with never a word about the substitution. Never done. Now starts the rush. Decided on dinner and ordered. Appetizers arrived. Excellent lobster bisque and excellent lump crab meat. Needed more cocktail sauce. We were not finished the Appetizer and the buspeople showed up. Told not finished. Back again in 2 minutes wanting to snatch up the plates and stood there until they could. Felt like we were in a fast food diner. Hurry up. The waiter was not very friendly. They like to think they have the best steaks. While the filet mignon was very good the strip steaks were tough. The ice cream sundae is huge and very very good. Overall it was not a very pleasant experience for $500. The service was the problem. The staff was racing around like they were being chased. Everything was a rush. Eventually all the tables filled up . There was no long line waiting to be seated so I didn't understand the rush. The wine was ignored mist of the time..poured it ourselves.. try that at Tellers or Rothmans. Sorry JH you dropped the ball. Look at your service and your steaks . It needs to improve.

Best steak ever. Service is great and drinks are great too. Very expensive but for the best you pay the most. Make reservations well in advance. Valet parking nice. Chateau Briand for 2 and the smothered garlic bread is what I get every visit. It's mouth watering. Ambiance very good.
