In France a bistro is a neighborhood tradition. In Cincinnati it’s called JeanRo.
Simple. Fresh. Comfortable. A “neighborhood” kind of a place where you meet up with friends and talk about everything under the sun. That’s the atmosphere you’ll find at JeanRo.
And then there’s the food…down-to-earth, everyday authentic French bistro cooking from the simplicity of steak and frites to the complexity of cassoulet. JeanRo’s staff is exactly what you expect-professional, friendly and courteous-and somehow they can tell when you need them, or when you need a little space. JeanRo is the real deal and it’s really here in Cincinnati, a fact you’ll need to remind yourself when you leave and find yourself on Vine Street, and not on a side street somewhere in Paris.
Chef/Owner, Jean-Robert de Cavel's menu features traditional French bistro fare with fresh, simple daily blackboard specials. The menu changes based on seasonality and availability of the freshest local ingredients.
The full service bar at JeanRo offers top-shelf liquor, fun, specialty cocktails; French, German and Belgian imported draft and bottled beer. The reasonably priced wine list featuring over 65 different wines, predominantly European, was expertly selected and created by Jean-Robert at Pigall’s.
Tables are covered with white linens and butcher paper; gracious service is offered in a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere associated with Parisian bistros. Decorated with unique fixtures; fun, authentic posters and objects from many years of Jean-Robert de Cavel’s personal collection.
