I had the pleasure of enjoying some incredible Asian inspired food. Every bite was a celebration of flavor-perfectly balanced sushi, rich & savory dumpling, & the freshest bluefin I've had in ages. Unfortunately, the service didn't match the food's quality. The staff seemed disorganized, also a bit arrogant. The mushroom dumpling was fried & boiling inside. (the type of dumpling you eat in one bite) & me & my friend all got burned inside our mouth wich made the rest of our meal a little less tasty. Our server answer was basicly to blow on our food & wait but at no time mentionned this dish was very hot. I guess the attitude kinda ruin it for me & a little warning is usually common & apreciated. It's a shame because the culinary experience was top-notch, but the poor service put a damper on the evening. If they can improve the service, this place would easily become a favorite.

I have been to Jatoba twice so far & had the pleasure of having Catherine as our waitress. Highly recommend asking for her she is fantastic. We had her choose options on the menu for us based on our preferences & she nailed it. Very high quality food on the pricier side but worth it! Would go back & would recommend, thank you Catherine!

It's important to note that although this restaurant is very good, it is very expensive & clients should know this beforehand. Cost over 300$ for two people, & this is with only one alcohol beverage. However, we did leave very full. The atmosphere is amazing, the decor is phenomenal & it feels very cozy. Great date place. The service was very good, hostess at front was kind & happy. Our waiter(male with moustache), did not make any mistakes, & came to see us the perfect amount of times, however the person I brought here felt like he was never smiling & looked annoyed to serve us, which can make people feel uncomfortable. We understand that working in the service industry is not always easy & fun, but in restaurants where there is a tip at the end & you have an extremely high bill, it doesn't leave a customer feeling like they want to tip. So the person I brought here felt sour to leave so much money to the waiter after feeling like we were a burden to him. The menu is very big, which is shocking for a place with a lot of quality because that is hard to achieve. It allows people with different food tastes to come; they hold seafood, meats, dumplings, salads, sushi, rice options, & more. It was wonderful to have such options. I do recommend this restaurant to anyone who doesn't have a budget & wants to experience a fun cozy & quality evening.
