" Our dining experience started off pleasantly with a great server and delicious appetizers, but turned south when our mains took over an hour to arrive. I must say the steak was grilled to perfection when it finally came, but our timing was definitely off. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has a charming feel and superb dishes. While I think the service was a tad slow, my steak frites was cooked perfectly and very satisfying. I would recommend their classic French onion soup, a must-try! I can't wait to bring my family here next time I'm in Charleston. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had an evening at 39 Rue de Jean that was mostly wonderful. The short ribs were absolutely delightful and the service was attentive. Nonetheless, my only criticism would be that the table was rather cramped given the amount of food we ordered. Overall, a classy experience appropriate for any occasion. " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply put, 39 Rue de Jean was a fantastic choice. The food was high quality, including a delightful duck breast that was perfectly cooked. I have been to many French restaurants, and this one stands out for its authenticity! The ambiance was cozy, and even the decor felt like a vintage French bistro. Can't wait to return for another meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food was delicious, I must admit that the service left something to be desired. Our server seemed overwhelmed, and it took a while for us to get our orders. The dishes we had, especially the short rib, were stellar, but a better server experience would have elevated the dining experience even more. " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance of 39 Rue de Jean set a perfect tone for my dinner date. With dim lighting and beautiful decor, it felt inviting. The food was delicious with perfectly cooked duck, and the service was efficient. While the prices are on the higher side, I think it’s worth every penny for such good quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" Though the atmosphere was lovely, my meal was a bit disappointing. The steak was overcooked even after I asked for medium rare. The service was decent, but I felt a bit neglected at times. The dessert, however, was divine, which at least salvaged part of the experience for me. " (*Curated Review*)
