This was my first time going to Jont and I was not disappointed. This was one of my best dining experiences, and I’ve been to quite a few Michelin star restaurants. The level of detail that was put in to the experience as first class! I will definitely be back!

An incredible experience all around — a true culinary adventure. The Wolfe Ranch Quail was the standout dish for us. Service was immaculate throughout, with a special shoutout to Kevin, who was exceptionally attentive.

We had a lovely experience at Jônt. The multi-course tasting menu—about 15 small dishes—was beautifully executed, with creative combinations and flavors we hadn’t experienced elsewhere. Service was excellent, good energy and vibe in the venue. we also appreciated the gluten-free accommodations for one guest in our party. We'd recommend it.

It was a milestone birthday celebration for my daughter - and it was well worth it! The ambiance was simple but fun, the staff was engaging, and interesting. The food was phenomenal and it was filling - even almost all of it was single servings. We’ve experienced other tastings like this - but this takes #1!

It’s obvious why Jont has two Michelin stars. You’ll only wonder why it’s not three. The food is out of this world. If anything the service is even better. Servers and chefs are professional, knowledgeable, and engaging. Book it early so you can have the experience.

Best experience ever! Brought along 5 friends who had never been to a similar fine dining restaurant and they were all floored! A little apprehensive at the price at first but by the end they were amazed at the value of experience and different flavors. Everything of the best quality! I wouldn't be surprised if they get a third star soon!

After a couple of not so great Michelin experiences, Jont put our faith back into Michelin Star restaurants! It was awesome!

The food at Jont is superb: layers of flavor, artful presentation, quality of ingredients. The counter seating close to the open kitchen is quite entertaining and allows you to see all the staff working diligently at their stations. The servers were incredibly pleasant and extremely knowledgeable about the food, wine and cocktails. They were probably the most professional and learned crew I have encountered. A truly excellent experience!
