Dear Jane's

Dear Jane's WHAT DEAR JOHN’S IS TO STEAK, DEAR JANE’S WILL BE TO SEAFOOD. IT WILL FEEL FAMILIAR AND UPSCALE, YET UPDATED AND APPROACHABLE.

TAKING FULL ADVANTAGE OF THE STUNNING MARINA VIEW, THE FOCUS IS ON CLASSIC AMERICAN SEAFOOD DISHES PREPARED SIMPLY WITH THE HIGHEST-QUALITY INGREDIENTS BY SEASONED CHEFS. FROM OYSTERS ROCKEFELLER TO SHRIMP LOUIE, SURF ‘N TURF AND CREPES SUZETTE, THE MENU HEWS TO THOSE OF SOME OF THE MOST LEGENDARY SEAFOOD RESTAURANTS OF THE 60S, 70S, AND 80S. THIS SENSIBILITY WILL BE ON FULL DISPLAY WITH ROAMING C

ARTS OF TABLESIDE SHRIMP LOUIE SALAD, HAND-MIXED TARTARE, CLASSIC CAVIAR SERVICE, AND PROFESSIONALLY FILETED WHOLE FISH. THE LAYOUT OF THE SPLIT-LEVEL ROOM AND SPACING BETWEEN BOOTHS AND TABLES ARE IDEAL FOR THIS PERSONALIZED SERVICE THAT IS BEGGING TO COME BACK IN STYLE IN THIS DINING ROOM. (THE TABLESIDE CAESAR AT DEAR JOHN’S IS A CONSTANT SELLOUT WITH BOTH OLDER CLIENTELE RELIVING SERVICE OF THE PAST AND NEWBIES FASCINATED WITH THE COURTSIDE SEATS.)

If you’re keeping it light but still want something good - Tuna Tataki does the job.

Seared tuna, avocado, tomato, puffed rice, and citrus vinaigrette come together just right.

Some evenings call for Sushi.

A few rolls, a drink in hand, and a table by the marina - sounds about right.

05/25/2026

Light, fresh, and a little unexpected - Rockfish Veronique brings hazelnut, endive, spinach, mint, and white grapes together in one plate.

It’s that kind of dish that feels simple at first, then keeps you coming back for another bite.

Every now and then, it’s all about a great Burger.

Ours is juicy, classic, and always hits the spot.

Dear Jane’s is the kind of place where one drink turns into dinner and dinner somehow turns into “should we stay for one more?”

Good food, harbor views, and a room that always feels like it’s having a good time.
