TastyPals Editorial Pick
JW
James Whitfield
Restaurant Critic
“Judge Cafe Bonjour by the bouillabaisse: a full shellfish cast and a rouille that holds the whole thing together, served tableside. The 4.7 reflects a kitchen that doesn't cut corners. The price point makes returning easy, which is exactly the point. Walk-ins are generally fine, though weekend brunch lines move quickly.”
