- CCourtneyBaton Rouge / Lafayette •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoThe food was incredible, we absolutely loved every course. Our favorites were the Amish yellow chicken, the venison, and the charcoal and chocolate. If you’re in the DC area, Jônt is a must see location. The staff are so focused on their guests. Within one course they noted my husband was a leftie and set his silverware accordingly. They kept our wine, champagne, and water filled throughout the night. Truly a unique and wonderful location.More infoJôntPrice: Very Expensive• French / Japanese• U Street Corridor•4.9

- ANAlyNGreater Boston •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoOne of the best meals of my life. Service, vibe, food, cocktail were all impeccable but in a completely not pretentious way. Every bite on the tasting menu was complex and flavorful, that left you considering and thinking after each bite. It was simply SO GOOD.More infoBrescaPrice: Expensive• Contemporary French / American• U Street Corridor•4.6

- JJosephBaltimore / Maryland •1 review5.0Dined on 9 Nov 2024The pasta was excellent, truly superb. I had the ravioli which was one of the best Italian dishes I’ve ever had. The antipasta (arancino rather than arancini as indicated by the menu) tasted a little off—perhaps frozen?—and the dessert I had (panna cota) was presented a flan rather than a true panna cota.More infoLupo Verde - 14th StPrice: Expensive• Italian• Logan Circle•4.4
