We thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Jônt. The service was absolutely impeccable. The food journey was so thoughtfully creative and perfectly executed. The pairings were well balanced to complement each excursion. The ambience was truly delightful and we appreciated the moderate noise level as it allowed us to engage in conversation.

A perfect evening from a culinary standpoint. However too noisy (loud music) to be able to converse comfortably. At times could not hear what the servers were saying when they were describing the food.

Jont is remarkable. We've been fortunate in life and have been to 20 Michelin 3 stars. Jont deserves a third star. The four of us were in agreement that it's a top five restaurant of all time for us. For us that puts it in the league of Alinea and the Fat Duck. High praise. Everything was perfect. Beautiful presentations, incredible food, perfect service. We even loved the music in the main dining area. We were celebrating a special occasion and worked with Kinga, who helped us surprise our son with a special gift. She and the whole team were remarkable. The test of a Michelin 3 star is, would you make a special trip to a City just to dine at the restaurant? We've been to multiple 3 stars where we've come away amazed, but not sure we'd make a trip just for the restaurant. Jont is different. Even if we didn't live in DC, we would make a trip here to dine at Jont. It's a special experience.
