Only drank + apps. One wierd thing was they would not let us sit inside (group of 8) @ ~ 10 p.m. (place was NOT crowded) if we weren't going to order full meals. Thought that was strange, but the apps we had were tasty. more

Food was great! But that was it. My wife and I live around the corner had not been to J beski's yet even though we walk up to Seaboard quite frequently. We had heard that they had late night menu and we had a good friend flying in from France for two days that evening. We decided to meet around... more

After traveling and living in Europe, I am so happy to find this gem of a restaurant. The food is simple and delicious and the selections are very interesting. They could use more comfortable seating, but I have a feeling they will soon grow out of this space. Fabulous! more

After reading all the reviews here I had to check it out. I can say that the food and service was really good. I recommend it to all. Good beer selection, menu stays on track with the German theme and the way they present the food makes you want to eat the plate as well. Excellent food and reasonably priced.... more

If you're a fan of German or Polish Cuisine, you'll like J. Betski's. The service is good, and the food is great. One small drawback is the venue is small and has high ceilings, which makes the place a bit on the noisy side. more

I am not German, nor do I live close to this restaurant, and if gas went up to $10/gallon, I would run to J. Betski's. My husband and I have only been there twice, but we've ranked it our favorite current restaurant. I'm a major foodie and used to have my own catering business, so I'm very very picky! Yes,... more
