Jill's Restaurant & Bistro, St. Julien Hotel
During our stay at the St. Julien Hotel, we dined at their restaurant Jill's Restaurant & Bistro for dinner.
Jill's Restaurant & Bistro, St. Julien Hotel
We arrived and were seated at a private table in the back dining room. The aesthetic of Jill’s was upscale and inviting characterized by warm lighting, unique artwork, and colorful vases. We loved how our table was separated from the others by partitions which added a touch of intimacy & romance.
One of the highlights of our dining experience was the impeccable service provided by our server, Jennifer. Her genuine warmth and attentiveness made us feel right at home. Jennifer's knowledge of the menu, her willingness to make recommendations, and her dedication to ensuring our satisfaction added an extra layer of enjoyment to our evening
For cocktails I had the Paloma made with Herradura Blanco tequila, Giffard pamplemousse liquor, lime, & grapefruit soda.
Paloma
The Paloma was a refreshing grapefruit drink with tart grapefruit & lime accents.
For Zero Proof Cocktails we tried the Canyon made with Pineapple, Orange & Cranberry Juice, and Raspberry.
Canyon, Zero Proof Cocktail
This was a fabulous rich bodied fruit mocktail that was pineapple forward.
For Salad we split the Grilled Pesto Caesar made with toasted pine nuts, pecorino, piquillo peppers & crostini.
Grilled Pesto Caesar
“This is the best Caesar I have ever had” was the first thing Ross said after his first bite. The creamy pesto Caesar dressing generously coated the salad which was deliciously cheesy, garlicky & herbaceous, brimming with pine nuts and zingy piquillo peppers. A must order at Jill’s (make sure to ask for extra dressing, cheese, and piquillo peppers)!
For Starters we had the Camaron Frito, Crispy Brussels Sprouts, and the Garlic Fries.
The Camaron Frito was made with crispy fried shrimp, corn relish, pickled red chili mayo, lime & cilantro.
Camaron Frito
The shrimp had crunchy golden exteriors and hearty, juicy interiors. The corn relish & pickled red chili mayo added acidity and a spicy kick to the shrimp.
The Crispy Brussels Sprouts were tossed in Beesquared local honey, sea salt & chili flake.
Crispy Brussels Sprouts
The brussels sprouts were amazing - they were light and had perfectly crisped leaves. The Beesquared honey coated the sprouts in sticky sweetness and the chili flake added subtle heat.
For Main Courses we had the Pan Seared Verlasso Salmon & the Wagyu Top Sirloin special.
The Pan Seared Verlasso Salmon was made with teriyaki glaze, sesame pea shoots & yuzu aioli.
Pan Seared Verlasso Salmon
The salmon was piping hot and had a flaky texture that fell into succulent bites. The teriyaki glaze added a savory and slightly sweet component to the fish. I loved dipping the salmon in the creamy & tangy yuzu aioli.
The Wagyu Top Sirloin special was paired with diver scallops, local jalapeño & Tillamook cheddar elk sausage, and grilled German potato salad.
The sirloin had a supremely tender and juicy bite with intense red meat flavor. The elk sausage had a savory and robust taste that brought additional depth and complexity to the special.
To finish our dinner, I enjoyed a glass of Chardonnay & Ross had hot tea.
What a meal! We loved dinner so much, we went back to Jill’s another two times during our stay at the St Julien.
