French is Back at Jacques Brasserie

“[Jacques’ Brasserie] is designed for customers who relish old school glamour and authentic European flair, but don’t want to sit for a three-hour meal.

When I ask about the Jacques Brasserie menu, Haeringer jokes in his signature frankness, “French is back. And this whole place is unabashedly, unapologetically the classics. If you want something else, go somewhere else. This is what we‘re known for.” “
