"Gabriel Stulman’s American restaurant Jolene has closed. Stulman, who runs the Manhattan restaurant Jeffrey’s Grocery and Sailor in Brooklyn, announced it would be closing last month. 'Sometimes it last longer than other times and sometimes it doesn’t,' he said on Instagram. 'I wouldn’t change much about the journey.' The restaurateur took over this address in 2019 and opened the Jones, named after the previous tenant, the Great Jones Cafe, open from 1983 to 2018. He changed the name to Jolene in 2021." - Luke Fortney
"Jolene, a Manhattan restaurant from Gabriel Stulman, is closing soon. It was modeled after good-for-anything cafes and wine bars in Paris and opened in 2021 with James McDuffee as head chef." - Emma Orlow
"It's not just looks that lean American bistro; the compact menu spans the classics from smoked trout to chicken Milanese." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Following the announcement, Jolene, an American restaurant in Noho that hopped on the discounted drinks bandwagon last week, deleted an Instagram post advertising its own $1 martini special during lunch on weekdays." - Luke Fortney
"Restaurateur Gabriel Stulman’s newest spot, Jolene’s in Noho, also requires proof of vaccination for indoor diners." - Erika Adams
