"Chef José Luis Ugalde, once the visionary behind Gibraltar and ranked the second-best chef in the Bay Area, has found a new canvas at Jetty Wave, and what a masterpiece he's painting. Each dish is a quiet symphony: delicate, perfectly cooked, and balanced with the kind of restraint that only a true artist commands. No ingredient shouts. No flavor overwhelms. Instead, they harmonize, layered, intentional, and deeply satisfying. From the first bite, it’s clear you’re in the hands of a chef who reveres his craft. Ugalde doesn’t just cook, he composes."

"This is the food component in the combo-space that is Jettywave Distillery, and what a GREAT compliment to every thing else going on. The menu has just enough variety to be interesting, while being small enough that it can be executed very well - and it is. My recent visit included a Panang Curry Chicken that was so full of fresh and creative flavors that I felt like stuffing myself and ordering a second dish (I didn't - had to save room for the drinks). The staff were quick to respond, helpful, and friendly. This place is popular, and often busy, but I haven't encountered the typical over-worked surliness you might find at a similarly busy place - I thank the leadership for creating a place that makes that so, and the staff for pulling it off as they do."

"The Chef is a flavor mastermind! Wow! The dishes here are packed with flavor AND nutrients and everything on the menu is perfection you can't go wrong with any choice. It's currently located inside Jettywave distillery which allows you to pair your delicious food with delicious cocktails in a super cute atmosphere. They also do quarterly chef's tasting experiences with cocktail pairings and I had the pleasure of attending one and was blown away. Come cozy up to a fire pit with a great drink and a plate of food you're sure to remember!"

"So good! We tried half the menu and everything was delicious. Presented beautifully too. Can't wait to go back and try the other half!"

"Coastal food at its best. Adventurous, tasty with the best ingredients. The combinations of flavors well thought. A jewel in Princeton. Off the beaten path but its worth it. Eat indoors or outdoors by the fire pits!!!"
