    I had the pleasure of dining at Joni Restaurant yesterday for a Christmas dinner with my son, and it was truly a memorable experience. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The service was impeccable, with the staff being attentive, warm, and professional. The chef’s menu was outstanding, featuring creative dishes that were both beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and festive, but I couldn't help but feel that a touch of Christmas music—perhaps soft background tunes or even a live band or singer—would have elevated the holiday spirit even further. It was the only element missing from an otherwise perfect evening. Thank you to the entire team at Joni Restaurant for making our Christmas dinner special. We will definitely be back

    Outstanding. Food was great, service was great. It was my wife's birthday, just the two of us, and I wanted something special. I booked a booth beforehand and let the staff know it was her birthday. We had to change the time of our reservation beforehand - easy process there. When we arrived the booth was set aside, and a birthday card sat on our table. Staff brought her a nice birthday dessert later on. We have been to Earl's at King West several times now. I really recommend it.

    Very attentive and delicate service. Chef's and waiters' attentions were much appreciated. Truly outstanding cuisine. However, while the wine list is impressive and quite wide-ranging, it is a challenge to find some medium-priced options as most wines are above $200. Our wine was excellent though even though its price was $150. A place to try for sure.
