Excellent Thanksgiving lunch. We had a three course meal. I had amazing scallops for the appetizer, entree was a delicious turkey (dark and white meat), the stuffing was fantastic and best for last the incredible pumpkin desert. Service was impeccable. Le Jardiniere is our favorite restaurant in the Design District and one of the best in Miami.
