    I felt conned by the f**k you pairing which far exceeded the meal cost. I could have simply ordered several high end wines and been better off. Their pours were far too light for the cost. Don’t get me wrong - the wines were exceptional - just order the full pours of the wines you like and you’re better off. Do not get the wine pairing but the food was exceptional! Order wine a la carte!

    What a wonderful experience! The food was amazing, well paced and the service impeccable. Attention to detail with plates of design and perfection. Flavor well balanced with every bite. We added the “what the f***” wine paring which added to the meal.  After dinner, dessert was offered at the dessert bar and was served by the pastry chefs. A magical evening.

    Such a great experience! The food was exceptional. It’s clear that the Jont team is meticulous in sourcing their proteins and produce, as everything was fresh and high-quality. The preparations hit that perfect balance of simple, traditional, and creative. The outcome was near perfection, and the A5 Wagyu Zabuton is the single best piece of steak I’ve ever had. The atmosphere is perfect for a romantic night out, and the staff was professional, friendly, and fun. Best meal I’ve had in DC and would highly recommend!

    Loved the vibe, music, staff, and the food was amazing. Should have three Michelin stars. If you hit one place in DC this is the way to go. Been to a lot of Michelin rated places and this is now in my top three. Just go and enjoy.

    We had an incredible experience and cuisine. Staff were extremely attentive and engaging. The tasting room was in the kitchen so it gave a cool vibe to the experience, plus they played some epic music (LOVED that playlist). The food was some of the best food I’ve ever tasted, both dinner and dessert. Highly recommend, will be back!!

    Everything about the experience was superb. My husband and I go to probably way too many Michelin restaurants, and we both agree this should be a 3-star. The taste of the food, the beverage options, the delightful service staff, and the appealing look of food, beverage, and the restaurant design were all superb.

    An extraordinary dining experience. From the moment you walk through the doors at Jônt, it’s clear you’re in for something remarkable. Every course, every detail, every interaction reflects a level of precision, passion, and discipline that is truly world-class. As someone who has spent nearly two decades in the hospitality industry, I have deep respect for the craft and commitment it takes to operate at this level. Jônt not only meets the high expectations that come with its accolades, it exceeds them. For anyone who appreciates culinary artistry, this is a must-visit. The team’s talent is evident, and their hospitality is as polished as the food itself. Jônt is a reminder of what’s possible when excellence is the standard across every facet of the experience.
