Fantastic food and service.
Expensive but worth the cost. Each of the 30 items were delicious. The wine pairings were well chosen. Staff is courteous and efficient. I highly recommend Jont!

Come early and enjoy a cocktail in their lounge area before making your way up. I was still sipping on mine when our table was ready and the host had it brought to our table. That was a nice touch. Personalized tablets welcome you and guide you through menu options. We decided to update to the truffles and we appreciated the elevation brought to the dish. The flavors were amazing in each dish and I couldn't help but think of the movie Willy Wonka as the flavor profiles seemed to burst in your mouth at different points in every bite! Each ingredient really shined in these dishes. The throwback songs are right up our alley and caught ourselves singing along a few times. Wine pairing was amazing, and I appreciated the story to why they selected these wines and the history of the vineyards. The bathrooms were a skip away, with automated seats that lifted upon and arrival, were heated, and had a Digital Touch operation pad. It's the coziest bathroom I've ever been in with fun fishy wallpaper and dimly lit. Every time I had to use the restroom they promptly replaced my napkin with the a fresh one. We both appreciated the interactive elements of our meal- like selecting your chopsticks and then moving to a different area for dessert and unboxing each section. The staff were all pleasant and each had their own vibe. The level of attention we had the amazing privilege to view and watch from our seats is unforgettable.
Be the first to ReplyJaunt - more like "haunt".
.. haunted by a search for greatness. Overall very middle of the road experience. Was hoping for many standout dishes, but most of them were meh. A few weren't very tasty, and I didn't finish them (the uni, the mushroom broth). Standout dishes were the first bites (the steam bun and the brioche), a Japanese whitefish with a lovely herbal sauce, the rice, the tempura mushroom, the bread with the main course, and the shaved ice dessert was excellent - very light, flavor, and unique. The rest was pretty average and unmemorable. I had a scallop sub for the beef course, and it was pretty unremarkable and overwhelmed by a truffle sauce. The service was quite nice, but there were a few service misses - a wine glass was taken away before the beverage was finished and the hot towels were served with the main dish so they were cold by the time we were done eating. Surprised it's a 2 star Michelin. For this price point, I would instead recommend a "jaunt" to NYC for Le Bernadin or to Napa for The French Laundry. Those are totally worth it!

The food was good, but not spectacular for a 2 Michelin star spot. Perhaps there are better seasonal menus.
Be the first to ReplyRecently, I had the delightful opportunity to dine at Jont
Recently, I had the delightful opportunity to dine at Jont with a friend, and capturing its unique charm in words is no easy task. Their absolute commitment to detail and impeccable service is transcendent. We were asked our preference for still or sparkling water and, before I could even fathom needing a refill, my glass was artfully replenished - a maneuver they managed to pull off without us noticing. An out-of-the-box, yet refined, gesture was encouraging customers to place phones on a small rectangular pad; this seemingly small touch amplified the élan and clean aesthetics of the space incredibly. After a course demanded finger-food etiquette, warm towels were presented, much to our appreciation. The warm and convivial staff was like the cherry on top - always eager to engage in friendly banter, creating an atmosphere akin to dining with friends. Moving on to the real star of the night: the food. Rather than an exhaustive critique of the extensive litany of dishes, I'll share a few standout highlights. The bafun uni - a symphony of savory, richness, and portioned perfection, presented beautifully. The medai was sheer palatable delight; the koshiibuki rice encapsulated truffle's sheer indulgence. The wagyu beef, so exquisite, it forced a revelation - it was as though I was truly discovering wagyu' full potential for the first time. Following this course, we were chaperoned to another section of Jont for dessert - our tantalizing second act. The butter mochi dessert was simplicity at its most deceptive, morphing into an under-the-foam surprise of mochi that left us in awe. To conclude, a playful puzzle-box containing 8 dainty sweet treats was offered. We decided to take ours home (of course, eating the freshly baked madeleines while they were still fresh), accompanied by a mint matcha latte for our morning enjoyment - a final note of deliciousness. In a nutshell, this was not my last visit to Jont. I'm excited to return soon!

This was one of the very best meals of my life, if not the best. From start to finish, every single bite had the most perfect and surprising flavors. It just kept getting better. The pumpkin chawanmushi was the best chawanmushi that i've ever had. I also could not get over the bluefin tuna with salted raspberry, it was so satisfying and the sauce was addicting. I also got the White Truffle addition. At some other restaurants, i've thought that the truffles weren't worth the money, but that was not the case at Jônt, the white truffles were very high quality and truly enhanced the dishes that they were shaved on. The kinki and the koshibuki rice were also both favorites. The rib cap and tongue were very memorable as well, and in my opinion steak courses can be easy to forget about. Even though every course was incredible, the highlight of the night was their duck course. It was seriously the best duck that i've ever had, the fat was rendered so perfectly, and the sauce was so rich and sweet yet savory. The bread was also insanely good and the broth went so well with the dish, the mushroom stuffed with sausage was very good as well. After the savory courses concluded, we were brought to their dessert parlor. It started with a "tasting of strawberry" which had 3 different small bites one of which was Japanese strawberries. The next dessert was a Concord grape shaved ice dessert that reminded my boyfriend and I of a PB&J, it was so delicious. The last dessert was a Mont Blanc, which was of course insane as well. The evening finished with a huge box of mignardises. Jônt might be pricey, but its worth every cent, it can easily be compared to the other 3 Michelin starred restaurants that i've been to, I won't be surprised once they get awarded with it. Thank you to the whole team for an unforgettable meal.

We had the privilege of dining here for our first time to celebrate our anniversary and from the moment we entered the dining area the ambience set the tone for our journey of an absolute amazing culinary experience. I'm a hip-hop and R&B head, so the playlist vibes won me over from the jump -- As it relates to the courses, the flavor profiles from beginning to end were truly divine leaving us with a difficult decision to identify a particular favorite when all of the courses were incredible. I also applaud and appreciate the smaller, but important details relative to plating presentation, pairing of utensils, and exceptional service. Ultimately, Jônt lives up (and arguably exceeds) its reputation as a Michelin two-star acclaimed restaurant and is highly recommended. Thank you for a very memorable anniversary dinner and we are excited to return again in the near future!

Jont just keeps getting better and better!!! It's been a while since I have been there and I pleasantly surprised to find that not only did they maintain the same excellence I had during a previous experience, but they actually went and raised the bar making the restaurant that much more epic. Everything from the food the ambiance and the staff are absolutely perfect. When I say perfect I mean perfect, they don't miss a thing. I can honestly say that I am surprised that Jont does not have 3 Michelin stars as I truly believe they are at that level.
Be the first to ReplyI had an incredibly disappointing experience at this
I had an incredibly disappointing experience at this two-star Michelin restaurant. The service was painfully slow, with our food taking a whole hour to arrive. We ordered a $150 bottle of wine, only to be informed 30 minutes later that they didn't have it anymore - a baffling situation. The sea urchin soup was a frozen disaster, making it clear that quality control was nonexistent. To top it off, the nearly $1400 check left a bitter taste that surpassed any of the poorly executed dishes. This place is undoubtedly the worst in the DC area. Adding to the misery, Chef Ryan was present throughout our ordeal, yet did nothing to salvage the experience. Despite the evident chaos, his lack of intervention or effort to rectify the situation further solidifies this restaurant as a regrettable choice in the DC area. The dismal experience was exacerbated by the blaring and cringe-worthy music that filled the restaurant - a cacophony of bad rap with offensive lyrics. It seems even the ambiance was a dreadful mismatch, contributing to the overall disappointment of this Michelin-starred establishment.

This experience was amazing!!! It is expensive but I will go again. The food, the service, the staff, the ambiance was amazing!!! I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience at Jont. I was even able to speak with Chef Ryan. He was extremely humble and friendly. I can not wait to return!!!
Be the first to ReplyPrior to our reservation, they did call to ask about
Prior to our reservation, they did call to ask about allergies, dislikes, and special occasions!There is some street parking and some garages nearby. Jont is located above Bresca. We had the door opened for us and we were greeted and taken upstairs immediately into an intimate room with seats around a kitchen. They take your coat for you if you request it.We were asked for sparkling or still water and offered some champagne. I believe they also offer non-alcoholic sparkling for those who don't drink. There is an tablet with the drink menu for your selections before the meals begin.We did opt for the truffle experience for an extra $150 I think it was. Although it was good and they do give you a fair amount to pair with some dishes, it can be overpowering. I would suggest that if you go with someone, one person opts for the truffle.I did enjoy most of the dishes, some had a lot of flavors that can be a little overwhelming. Everyone was so gracious and nice and service was excellent. You're taken to a lounge area with tables right outside the kitchen area for desserts, coffee or dessert beverages.When we left, they gave us a copy of the menu for the evening and it's when your back downstairs that you get your coat. They also knew that I had a dog and had dog treats for me to take home! It's a great experience to have and we do plan to come back. I was definitely full by the end of the meal but all the desserts were fantastic.

Jônt was kind of like a nice deja vu, as we had been here for the chef's tasting at Bresca; Jônt is now utilizing that same space upstairs for their chef's counter seating.The tasting menu has about 32+ items, using seasonal ingredients. What I like about Jônt's menu is that it's Japanese seafood-forward and has that nice Asian flare to each of their dishes.I'm kind of obsessed with their little bites and tartlets - it's the perfect combination of savory!Note that they cannot accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies.Reservations are required on Resy, and they also have special collaborations and wine tasting events. I was so disappointed that I missed out on the Jungsik one as it was sold out quickly!Service is friendly and great, and the vibe is comfortable and relaxed.Definitely a favorite in the D.C. area - great for date nights or for any one who enjoys a clean and tasty menu.Limited metered parking in the area.+offers various collabs and special events - gets sold out quickly!+friendly service+reservations required on Resy+limited metered parking in the area
Be the first to ReplyHidden away on the top story of another DC restaurant, Jont
Hidden away on the top story of another DC restaurant, Jont offers a not-to-be-missed dining experience. From the moment you walk in to the time you leave, the service is impeccable. There are 32 courses - 16 savory and 16 sweet - with a unique range of flavors and textures. The details were incredible, and writing them all would not do it justice. The 15th and 16th course, the pinnacle, was an aged duck breast with a Japanese bread to absorb the sauce the duck came with. Chef's kiss. One of the most memorable parts though, and just a testament to the level of detail and thought throughout this dining experience, was the Jeni's ice cream that Andrew hand delivered at the end of the night after sneakily asking during the meal if we had ever gone and what our favorite flavors were! The 32 courses were all amazing, unique and delicious in their own ways but this surprise made the most special night even that more special. I hope to have the opportunity to return here.
Be the first to ReplyMy fiancé and I had the most amazing experience.
Food, service, and music was excellent. We were 15 mins late due to traffic so it's super important to make sure to show up on time as they serve each dish to everyone around the same time. They were understanding and caught us up with no issues. Food: I loved every single dish but my favorites included the starter with tuna and caviar and the uni on pumpkin chawanmushi, kombucha, and soymilk. Koshiibukin rice had a generous amount of truffle and the duck was perfectly cooked. My favorite of the desserts was kakigori: shaved ice jasmine, strawberry, amazake. Ambience: Sad to see a previous review calling it "rap" when it's actually a mixture of different genres. In my opinion, the playlist was great. I didn't feel like I had to whisper when talking. Service was top tier. Everyone we spoke to was very friendly. They all took great care in everything they did.

Definitely inappropriate for a Michelin restaurant. The food quality cannot overcome horrible ambiance.

Jont is now the pinnacle of DC dining, both in quality and price. Every course was amazing, and the final check was jaw-dropping. I'm not sure we'll be back until we win the lottery, but wow is the food good!
Be the first to ReplyThis is not just dinner, this is an experience! Our first
This is not just dinner, this is an experience! Our first official experience of 2023 was at the magical Jônt, and they did not disappoint.Here's a couple of things to keep in mind:It can be expensive, so just be sure to budget ahead of time so you can live your BEST life!It's above/inside of Bresca, so don't worry, you're in the right place if you're there. (We almost got lost lol.)Get the drinks! I promise you, it's worth it. We enjoyed wine pairings as well as cocktails.Engage with the staff! They are absolutely lovely and they really want to make it worth your while, so lean into it.Take a second and enjoy where you are. It's such an intimate space, I felt like I was transported somewhere else! Don't stay on your phone the whole time, just enjoy it.
Be the first to ReplyCame here a while back and had an exceptional meal.
There's definitely some places that are weak 2 stars and even some weak 3 stars. This is very strong 2 star and will be 3 soon enough. Some things needed to be worked out to get there but they'll get there and when they do this will be one of the greatest restaurants in the country.

I went here a few months ago absolutely the best food I've ever had I think this place is worth taking a trip to dc just for this restaurant I left with a hefty bill and felt every penny was worth it, great customer service and an awesome experience, the food/experience is so good it will make you hate any other restaurant. If you wanna experience Michelin star food this is the place you should go
Be the first to ReplyJont was delicious.
I was so absolutely full when I left but would definitely go there again (though I may just ask to get the dessert to go next time!). Highly recommend this experience.

My husband and I went in May, delicious food! There were over 20 courses, all really unique flavors and attention to detail! Dessert was amazing as well. Beautifully crafted. My husband got the wine pairing and that complemented the food very well.
Be the first to ReplyCame here by myself because none of my friends or family
Came here by myself because none of my friends or family were willing to spend this amount on food and wine. Food and the wine pairing (iconic) were excellent but the wine pours were so tiny! Enjoyed the transition to the lounge for desserts and the personalized note. Even got some personalized dog treats to take home to my dogs! Service was outstanding and really made the night.
Be the first to ReplyTruly excellent dining.
We love food, but given the price we were hesitant to make our reservation. Finally for a special occasion we decided to try either Jont or Pineapple and Pearls. I decided on Jont because I prefer more small courses (never too many) and based on the menus I had seen it appeared to use a lot of premium ingredients in addition to the caliber of cooking dining and service. I was honestly expecting to be a bit disappointed since I think Bresca is only ok, however Jont blew it out of the water. The service was immaculate and attentive. Every course of the 16 courses was amazing. The food was fresh, and creative. It was the perfect amount of food and we left full. I haven't had a meal in the US that I enjoyed this much. The real stars for me were the foigras starter, the duck course (unreal) the pork, the sea urchin, but honestly the palate cleansers were just as good. Desserts were excellent utilizing fresh summer strawberries in a variety of ways. My fiancé got the wine pairing which was excellent if alittle traditional, I was more than content with the wine by the glass I ordered which is much more budget friendly than the pairing. We loved having a separate space for dessert which was very intimate. The chefs counter was spacious, and quiet enough that we could easily hear each other but with music (Kanye and jay Z the whole time which we loved) loud enough we couldn't hear other parties. I am hard of hearing and hate loud restaurants- not a problem here. If the dinner wasn't $1200 at the end of the day we would come back again in a heart beat. I will eventually go to pineapple and pearls for a comparison of DCs two star spots but this will be hard to beat. It was definitely worth the price and the experience, and we are so glad we did this before leaving DC. Well done Chef Ryan!
Be the first to ReplyCelebrated my wife's birthday there.
Interesting and unique experience, definitely worth of trying. Everything was in a bite size. High-end ingredients, elegant plating, and very much attention to details, even the utensils are designer brands. If there is one drawback for the dinner, that would be the desserts. I'm not sure why all the Michelin rated restaurants that we've been to, they all give out those sugary candies/chocolates at the end, did you guys all get them from the same vendor with a wholesale price? We had all the candies and chocolates to go, and they're still on my kitchen countertop now. Not sure if we're going to eat them. But overall, the dining experience was still spectacular. Highly recommended to the foodies out there!
Be the first to ReplyOne of the best dining experiences we have had.
We've been to many of the top 50 restaurants in the world (in North Central and South America, Asia and Europe, including 11 Madison the year it won top honors in the CNN top 50. Jont ranks near the top of our list.
