    Dinner was fantastic, as usual. Even though it was Valentine’s Day we were seated right on time, service was prompt and the food delicious. Kammeran did a great job- very cheerful and attentive. We have been several times and will definitely return again.

    I was skeptical of being out in the climate-controlled tent, but it was charming and filled with those extra touches that make this Jonathan's. Excellent service. Tasty meal. That's what will make this your favorite place too.

    Our server was wonderful! However, our filets were rarer than we wanted, even after describing in detail the level of grilling that we wanted. It was a nice experience, though, but we do miss the old JTR on Gaylord!

    I cannot recommend this place enough! My husband and I went last night to celebrate our anniversary and everyone was so nice and welcoming. When we walked in, you would think the place would be really loud because of the high ceilings, hard floors, and how many people are seated close together, but we could hear each other really well. The design of the restaurant was done very intentionally with so many soft surfaces, fabric chairs, large curtains, large linen lanterns—so many things to absorb sound. I wasn’t to loud at all. I chose Jonathan’s the Rub specifically for the drink menu. They have so many great options, but I loved that they had my favorite, Paper Plane. Phenomenal! The food was *chef’s kiss* 🤌 we both got steaks, me the filet and my husband the NY strip, both perfectly cooked and flavored. Their fries are unique, with a savory herb seasoning and balances nicely with a sauce they recommend (can’t remember what is was called). The crème brûlée , also my favorite, was amazing and perfect for sharing. And they so sweetly gave us 2 glasses of Prosecco on the house for our anniversary along with a card. The service and the ambience can make or break a restaurant experience in this place was amazing. Like I said, everyone was so welcoming. Our server, Luis, was so sweet and attentive. The event coordinator came and spoke to us and he was wonderful. (I hate that I can’t remember his name, but he was so stylish and funny, we could have talked to him all night!) Thank you so much for making our anniversary so special and I can’t wait to go back!

    Fantastic as usual. The food is exceptional. Service is very good. I could have at least ten things off their menu and be very happy. Had the redfish tonight. So good. Our table also had the sea bass, pork chop and the beef roast. All amazing. If you haven’t been there you’re missing out.
