The food and service were both excellent, price for a table for two with two apps, two entrees, two drinks and two desserts (one taken off the bill for a birthday, which was unexpected!) came out to around $100/pp and it was well worth it. If I absolutely had to nitpick, the medium-rare filet had a bit of a char on the outside in places that gave it a partially crunchy texture in those areas. I would highly recommend and will definitely be back!

We always enjoy our time and meals at d'jest. The ambience is a modern, social vibe. As always, restaurants in strip malls can be deceiving. The farm-to-table selections, the close proximity to the semi-open kitchen, and the BYOB option make this a favorite choice for us. Someone in our party had the pork chop. with not a morsel left on the plate. I enjoyed the spaghetti squash bolognese...yum with fresh vegetables for the sauce. Another diner finished her pasta dish. As always, our server was friendly and welcoming.
