My wife and I decided to treat ourselves while in DC to a special meal after a career change. She’s always wondered what it would be like to sit at a chef’s table and in this place every seat is at the chef’s table. There are only 16 chairs in the entire restaurant. The service and staff were absolutely amazing! We lost count of the number of courses brought to us. Everything, and I mean everything, tasted wonderful. It was a true dining experience for all your senses. We loved the vibe of the music, the smell of the kitchen, and the choreography of the staff. It was so much to take in, bordering on sensory overload but in a good way. This is definitely a once in a lifetime experience we recommend. We were encouraged to ask questions of the chefs and never felt rushed. When we were finally done, which we didn’t want to leave, we realized we had been there for over 3 hours. Highly recommend if you are ever wanting to splurge and enjoy a two Michelin star restaurant.

I can not say enough good things about this resturant. The chef has taken the time to work out every detail of your 3 hour experience sitting at the chefs table. The best I can describe it is that it’s a mixture of a play and a magic show. Higher level managers would enter the kitchen at regular intervals adding new energy to the resturant. Music plays loudly the entire meal but it does not prevent you from talking. The courses or expressions as the chefs team likes to call them start off amazing and you think how can it get better. Well it does get better. Every course better than the last. The two expressions that stand out of the 31 I experienced was the duck and the desert. After serving us top grade wagu beef, they unconventionally served duck after it. All I can say is it felt like the chef had turned up the flavor of the dish to 11. It was the most amazing dish I have ever had. I don’t think you can get it anywhere else. The other noteworthy dish was the 3rd dessert out of 4 they gave as part of their menu. I don’t know exactly what it was but it was a pastry with amazing cream. I don’t think it has a name, but I call it awesome because that’s how it is. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. It was enjoyable to hear about their work and experiences. I really have never had an experience like it. It is one of a kind. I guess I have to share the one negative experience I had that night. When we went into the other room for dessert there was a bartender who was not friendly like the rest of the staff. They only worked in the dessert area and not in the kitchen so it wasn’t a big deal but they purposefully ignore me when I spoke to them and was staring at me weirdly. But as I said, out of 20 staff this is the only person to behave that way so I’m sure something was going on from them. I would definitely come back to Jont again. Maybe when the menu changes to summer or fall.

Prior to our reservation, they did call to ask about allergies, dislikes, and special occasions!

We made reservation at Jont a couple of month before visiting DC and it didn’t disappoint us. It was our first Michelin star restaurant experience so we were not quite sure what to expect.

Absolutely amazing experience. Highly recommend to everyone interested in high level fine dining. The dishes were exquisite and the wine pairing was extremely well balanced with each course. Service was excellent and seeing the intricate process of preparing each dish, from snacks to pastrys, was beautiful.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at the prestigious two-Michelin stars Jont restaurant in Washington D.C., and I must say, it was an absolutely incredible experience. I chose this restaurant to celebrate my wife’s birthday, and it turned out to be the perfect choice for such a special occasion.

This is one of, if not the best tasting menus we’ve had. Start to finish there was not a dish we did not absolutely love. We opted to split a reserve wine pairing and do a truffle upgrade as well, and it was so worth it! One of the pricier, but definitely one of the best for sure. The duck dish was probably our favorite. I’m also a huge chocolate fan for dessert, but the skyberry dessert was simply amazing. The first bites were also all delicious. It was also nice that with the wine pairing they brought a new wine with nearly every dish, which was a good bit! The pours were slightly smaller of each, but it was nice to have the variety! Highly recommended, and I hope they get their 3rd star soon!
