This was a memorable experience from the outset with great customer service that made us feel very comfortable. This was matched by outstanding food with each course exceeding expectations. I had also made a personal request on behalf of one member of our party and not only did they remember but the response of the staff and the chef was wonderful

I had the Wagyu Coulotte from Today’s Rotisserie, and it was absolutely delicious! I especially loved the red wine peposo sauce. It was amazing! My husband had the trout and said it was cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was lovely, and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. This has definitely become one of our favorite restaurants in DC! We can’t wait to go back!

The bread and pasta were fresh and the sauces were were perfectly seasoned. The service was friendly and attentive. I come to the area a couple times per year and will definitely be back!

My experience at Jônt exceeded my expectations! While a few of the cold courses, particularly the sea urchin, weren’t quite to my personal taste, the entrées were nothing short of extraordinary. Several ranked among the best dishes I’ve ever enjoyed at any restaurant, anywhere in the world. The tiger prawn, in particular, was the highlight of the evening and a dish I won’t soon forget. The desserts were equally impressive, and I especially appreciated the creative use of apple and chestnut flavors to conclude the meal. The service was exceptional throughout the evening. Max, who was my primary server, was a consummate professional, striking the perfect balance between attentiveness and hospitality. The entire team was warm, welcoming, and remarkably knowledgeable, making the experience all the more memorable. Jônt delivered a truly outstanding dining experience, and I would enthusiastically recommend it to anyone who appreciates exceptional food and hospitality. I look forward to returning!
