That’s really unfortunate, because Jacques-Imo’s UWS really did do some things quite well, including getting P&J oysters. The Katrina-transplant waitstaff they picked up was good, too.

And it was a lot less crowded than the original (which can be great but can be inconsistent).

I don’t know how it tastes, but I just ran out and bought it as a gift. From the photo, it looked to me like the harmonica was inside the bottle (like a ship in a bottle), but I was disappointed to see it’s just a picture on the outside of the bottle.

Jacques Imo’s might have made more money if they opened for lunch. Isabella’s, across the street, is absolutely packed on weekdays during lunch hour.

Pity me, I work on the UWS were cheap eats and street food are non existent.
