The food and service were amazing! Entering the restaurant, tucked upstairs of another restaurant on a busy street, really feels like taking a journey away from the cold and your worries. It’s warm, cozy, with many delicious smells and a cool kitchen setup, with an open fire for cooking the meats. Our only complaint was the obnoxiously loud pop music. Very random assortment of songs and it was hard to hear the servers describe the food or to talk among ourselves even. We asked for it to be turned down, and they did a little, but would not any further because of the ambiance they were trying to achieve. Going into the dessert bar area was a relief, much quieter there. The food was amazing, creative, beautiful, delicious, but we would not go back for the price tag because the ambiance wasn’t for us.

EXCELLENT in all ways except one. I found the music to be a bit too loud. It was fine when I was eating or talking with the person next to me, but when the staff behind the counter was talking to me about wines and the food, I had a hard time hearing because of the music. If it was turned down just a bit that would be nice. FYI, my hearing is fine.

The food, cocktails, wine pairings, and service were all excellent. It’s definitely a restaurant to go to for a special occasion. Jont definitely deserves its 2 star Michelin rating. The service was impeccable. For example, we overheard a server handle last minute dietary requests with grace and in stride.

Lovely chef's counter with knowledgeable, approachable, and enjoyable staff. Plating, presentation, and service was a different level of care and consideration. The meal was a journey through so many flavors and textures that worked well together (caviar, scallops, and longtooth grouper anyone?!). Cocktails are made right in front of you and dessert is served in a separate lounge area, perfect for ending the evening. Absolutely loved my time at Jônt, thank you to Chef Ryan for such a wonderful night!
