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.
