Wasn’t where I could find it in the maps but just happened to run into it when I was about to give up. Look for JEFFERSON PLAZA! I wanted breakfast but was too late… I got an egg salad sandwich. Delicious!

They have the best lamb over rice ever. I work close by the place and almost eat lunch there four times a week. They do have great sandwiches also but the lamb over rice is something else !!! Must try.

Strange little place, but I had a yummy bacon, egg, and cheese bagel and fresh fruit for a reasonable price. They were open at 6am when I had to go to ask early meeting, so that was a definite plus!

Three tried and test words, «Lamb Over Rice». It’s the only reason (in my utmost humble opinion) for coming to Jefferson Café.
Much like other reviewers have mentioned, this place isn’t anything to getting excited about. The décor is bland, the buffet on the smaller side, but oh those «three little words» have propelled this place from two-​star dreadfulness to four-​star glory.
Over the top writing aside, any «over the rice» meal is worth the trip if you work in the area. The dish comprises a small salad, rice, with great grilled meat, and a tzatziki and hot sauce combination on top.
Try it…

Jefferson Café only exists to support the office buildings nearby so definitely do not plan a trip around it. That being said, I personally prefer this place over nearby Soho. Soho is flashier, but I like the food better here. It is mainly a buffet line and you pay by the pound so it is super expensive.
If you go here, get Over the Rice. It’s amazing and is what keeps this place in business (Oh, and the breakfast sandwiches).

The rice bowls are great! I love their lamb rice bowls… If you ever get it and like spicy, ask for extra spicy. They add a lot of dressing which is why it is a 4 and not a 5.

Jefferson Café is probably my breakfast spot now as they will cook fried eggs per request! Why am I so crazy about fried eggs? Well its common in many Thai dishes so I’ll order it for breakfast and eat it with my leftovers (Thai food).

If you ever get a breakfast sandwich, ask them not to put butter on the bagel, croissant, or bread. The added butter makes the sandwich almost inedible. The breakfast bar can be hit or miss… their eggs always taste funny and seem to have a lot of liquid.

Jefferson has redone their menu. I don’t know if they read my previous review here criticizing them for not being all that healthy, but their new menu has some pretty good wraps and not as many gut-​busters. I really like the Peking Wrap in particular. I’ve started coming to Jefferson more often now to get a wrap when I’m not in the mood for soup from Green Leaf’s /​Soup Nutsy down the hallway.
