We had a tasty salad and squash soup with bread and butter on the side. they were plenty for lunch. Bread was delicious.

I had the pleasure of dining at Joni Restaurant yesterday for a Christmas dinner with my son, and it was truly a memorable experience. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The service was impeccable, with the staff being attentive, warm, and professional. The chef’s menu was outstanding, featuring creative dishes that were both beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and festive, but I couldn't help but feel that a touch of Christmas music—perhaps soft background tunes or even a live band or singer—would have elevated the holiday spirit even further. It was the only element missing from an otherwise perfect evening. Thank you to the entire team at Joni Restaurant for making our Christmas dinner special. We will definitely be back

We love George! proposed to come back every year on the date that I propose to my wife. We’ve been doing this for 11 years now. Not only is the food great, and the sommelier-based wine pairings are phenomenal, it’s also the little things like them remembering exactly where we sit, and they give us the same booth every time without even asking. I can’t say enough good things about the staff, the food, the ambience. It’s definitely Worth to go for a special occasion!

Very attentive and delicate service. Chef's and waiters' attentions were much appreciated. Truly outstanding cuisine. However, while the wine list is impressive and quite wide-ranging, it is a challenge to find some medium-priced options as most wines are above $200. Our wine was excellent though even though its price was $150. A place to try for sure.

Excellent service provided expertly and with courtesy. The food was superb, as usual.
