Omo by Jont is a wonderful dining experience from start to finish. The evening feels like a journey, as you move through different rooms throughout the dining experience. They offer multiple chef-selected dining packages, and for this occasion, we chose "The Jaunt." The service was top-notch from the moment we walked in. They greeted us warmly and acknowledged our anniversary every step of the way, which made the night feel extra special. The restaurant executes a beautiful blend of Japanese and French inspired dishes. From the appetizers to the desserts, every dish was well crafted and memorable. It's hard to pick a favorite because everything felt unique, but our most memorable dishes were the trout asparagus croustade, the nanatsuboshi rice, the wagyu, and the desserts. The Bomb Yuzu and Crown Melon were fresh, delicious, and an experience of their own. They ended the night with a box of sweet treats with a thoughtful message, along with mint matcha lattes to go. It was such a special touch, and we even enjoyed them the next day. For those who drink, they also offer a wide range of drink tasting packages, as well as by-the-glass and bottle options. Overall, Omo by Jont is an unforgettable dining experience and perfect for a special occasion. read more

Definitely lives up to the hype. Every course felt intentional and a little different from anything we've had before. The tasting menu was creative and insanely good. - Flavors were well balanced - Presentation was on point - The staff walked us through each course and were so friendly. Great spot if you're looking for something unique or celebrating something special. read more

Stopped by Ômo by Jônt just for a quick snack and ended up really impressed. We sat in the lobby area and even without doing the full tasting menu, you can feel the level of detail and care this place operates with. The host and manager were amazing. Super welcoming, attentive, and made the whole experience feel elevated even though we were just there casually. You can tell this is a Michelin level spot not just from the food, but from how they treat people. Nothing felt rushed or transactional. Definitely a place worth coming back to for the full experience next time. read more

We went for an early Valentine's dinner and it was hands-down one of the best meals we've ever had. The seven-course Jaunt with the F* It** wine pairing was an unforgettable journey; every bite intentional, thoughtful, and beautifully paired. The contrast of textures and flavors was incredible: delicate raw fish, crunchy tartlets, rich tomato ragù; everything worked together so seamlessly. Each course felt like its own moment, and the experience just kept building. If you're looking for a truly special, elevated dining experience, don't miss this place. read more

I had the best dining experience I've ever had here. My husband booked this omakase dining experience and I couldn't recommend it more. We decided to go with the journey option that was $165 per person. You had a choice to also add a wine tasting. Me and husband don't drink so we opted not to get that option but their sommelier was so kind that he offered us some non-alcoholic tastings that paired great with one of the meals. The entire dining experience was exquisite and the environment that they create leaves you wanting to come back again and again. read more

Review: A Disjointed Evening at Omo by Jont Rating: 3/5 Stars I visited Omo by Jont last night with high expectations, but unfortunately, the experience landed in "mildly disappointed" territory. While there were flashes of brilliance, the evening lacked the seamless choreography and thoughtful progression one expects from a Michelin-starred establishment. The Atmosphere & Service The night got off to a rocky start. Despite having a 7:30 PM reservation, we stood in the entryway for a full five minutes without being greeted--a significant lapse for a restaurant of this caliber. Inside, the main dining area seemed to be struggling with an AC issue. While technical failures happen, it undeniably detracts from a premium experience when the staff is visibly dripping in sweat while serving your food. The vibe was further dampened by the music, which felt entirely uncurated. I have no problem with hip-hop being played all night, but listening to Soulja Boy's "Crank That" in between bites of a $400 tasting menu felt incredibly misplaced. It felt less like a curated soundtrack and more like a "2000s Hip Hop" shuffle on Pandora, which didn't match the elevated experience we were paying for. The Menu: Highs and Lows We opted for The Jaunt tasting ($395/pp) and paired it with a bottle of Dassai Blue 23 ($180) rather than the wine pairing. This turned out to be a wise move. The pacing was aggressive--seven courses arriving roughly every 20 minutes--which left little room to breathe. The couple next to us had a "bottleneck" of five glasses on their table, unable to keep up with the speed of the service. * The Misstep: The experience began with a Pastrami Steamed Bun. This was an absolute failure in terms of menu composition. It was a heavy, rich bite that felt increasingly out of place as the night progressed, unnecessarily occupying "stomach real estate" that I would have preferred to save for the later courses. * The Highlights: The Crab Uni Leek was outstanding--easily one of the best dishes of the night. This was followed by a very creative Snap Pea Chawanmushi with incredible depth. The Rohan Duck and Wagyu Zabutton were both technically excellent. * The "Wall": The signature Nanatsuboshi Rice (risotto-style) was delicious but very heavy. Coming after that initial pastrami bun, it pushed us over the edge. By the time the main proteins arrived, we were too full to fully appreciate them. The Sweet Ending The transition to the pastry area was a highlight. The introductory "Orange" dish was refreshing, sweet, and highly creative. While the subsequent desserts were good, we hit a physical limit after the Melon course and had to tap out. Final Thoughts Omo by Jont delivers high-quality ingredients, but the flow and curation of the meal felt disjointed. When you are paying these prices, you expect a narrative that respects the diner's palate, pace, and senses. Between the service lapses, the jarring playlist, and the heavy-handed start, this remains one of my least favorite Michelin experiences in Orlando. read more

AH-MA-ZING! Food is incredible, service is impeccable and overall experience was one of the most amazing omakases I have had the pleasure of experiencing. The menu built beautifully and each bite had depth and layers that was delighted. We also did the wine pairing menu and they were expertly matched. Not something you need to do, but if you love wine and how wine complements flavor, I highly recommend. Despite being small bites, each portion is very well crafted and by the end of the night, I was very full. We actually had to take most of our desert box home. Crazy as it sounds, the white chocolate desert was my favorite thing we ate and I dont even like white chocolate. That tells you how balanced and beautiful each course is. I HIGHLY recommend. No surprise that they have a Michelin Star with the care, hospitality and artistry of everyone at Omo by Jont. Congratulations to the chef and thank you for a beautiful night. read more

Ômo by Jônt did not disappoint! My friend took me here for what might be one of the best food experiences of my life! We came strictly for the culinary experience & it was honestly mesmerizing. ART. Overall 10/10. Quick breakdown below Vibe check: 10/10 Intimate, intentional, very chef driven. Comfortable but serious, calm but exciting at the same time. Beverages: 10/10 You are greeted with a complimentary glass of champagne & that was truly all we needed. We weren't there to drink, we were there to eat. Side note... it is beer and wine only. Food: 10/10 You have to come with a palate prepared for what's to come. The Jaunt menu is an experience everyone should treat themselves to once in their life. Every course felt extremely chef crafted and intentional. Clean flavors, beautiful technique, and just one of those meals you'll never forget. I loved every moment. Service: 10/10 Service like no other! I felt extremely well taken care of. They refilled our water like no one's business lol. But what really stood out was how knowledgeable they were about ALL food items. Every ingredient, every technique, every question... answered with confidence. You can tell they are proud of what they're serving. Truly unforgettable. One of the best culinary experiences I've had to date. read more

Omo by Jont is located in Winter Park Florida. This Michelin starred restaurant offers a multi- room experience and one can make reservations for dinner or have a drink and small bites in their Salon. We chose the Journey dinner menu 195.- which included 4 amuse bouchées, 4 savory dishes and dessert, plus a magical box of sweets. We also opted for the Crown melon at an additional cost. Our party chose the Journey wine pairing- 140.- We were greeted with 1 glass of champagne (I prefer champagne chilled.) The Salon is warm and welcoming- comfort and design wise my favorite. In contrast, the main open service restaurant is modern, too bright and the barstools are wide but somewhat uncomfortable to adjust. The room also became hot and the service staff brought in a fan. Their music was playing loudly in the background, service staff gladly accommodated us. Starting with the hors d'œuvres I was impressed with every flavor infused in their meticulously crafted design. We did not receive any hot or cold towelettes before handling their miniature snack delights. Was that a service oversight? We did however receive refreshing towelettes between these and the savory courses that followed. I was expecting a bit more with the bao buns temperature-wise, but those details aside all these savory courses succeeded delivering harmony. Chef locked in all individual ingredients and captured the right balance of flavors in perfect synchronicity. Hats off. The plated dessert was outstanding and a bursting surprise of sweetness! The Magical box was our treat to take home. The wine pairings were a good addition, however I was surprised they did little to elevate the experience. I'll post their menu and pictures for your viewing. It was a nice experience. read more

I have dined at about 15 Michelin-Star restaurants. Omo by Jont is my favorite experience so far. The appetizer snacks and desserts were the best part, but the Magic Box at the end blew our mind. The sake flight paired well with our meals. The desserts were served in a different room and the service we received was top tier. Tracy was the best and she made sure we were taken care of. What a memorable night... read more

A phenomenal restaurant for Winter Park that will surely elevate the local food scene. We opted for the entry-level "Excursion" menu, and it was plenty of food at a fair value considering the quality and service. The 3 menu types (excursion, jaunt and journey) allude to the format: traveling from room to room. In the first room, 8 diners sit at a bar and 8 in lounge chairs. I refused a welcome beverage because the cheapest glass of bubbles on the menu was $40, but apparently it's complementary (this could have been more clearly communicated - who doesn't love a free drink). The 4 bites, each served as a separate course, are flavor-packed and gram-for-gram the best part of the meal. Next we moved to the beautiful chef's counter for mains, the highlight of which was the finale of wagyu. The dish with the most presentation was the rice with king crab, and while we enjoyed the chef interaction and performance of truffle shaving, the truffles themselves didn't enhance the dish (described as winter truffles, but less flavorful than summer truffles). My least favorite savory dish was the kanpachi with tiny soba noodles - just not as enjoyable as the other 3. Finally we moved to a clubby dessert room where a shaved ice Kakigori was prepared - voluminous but light and a good palette cleanser. We then received a presentation box filed with jellies, sweets and chocolates that were all fantastic and demonstrated high skill, much of which was prepared for us to take away (you won't leave hungry, even on the "entry level" tasting meal). The experience ends with a nice take away gift of mint matcha, and also the check, which comes with the somewhat confusing statement that the included 22% gratuity (which is fine) goes to the culinary team (ok?) and anything additional is shared with the service team (wha?). I do understand and appreciate built-in gratuity, but the statement implying that the service team isn't included is a little confusing. Overall, an amazing experience I hope to repeat. Note: corkage fee is a jaw-dropping $100, so not encouraged. The fee was previously waived on Wednesdays, but apparently no longer. Would love to see an off-night or off-season promo like that return. read more

What a spectacular experience this evening at Omo by Jont! We were celebrating our 16th anniversary and from the moment we arrived we felt special. It's an expensive treat but 100% worth the splurge if you can swing it. The restaurant is beautiful and the meal is an experience. You start in the lounge with small bites, move to the tasting table in the kitchen for mains and another space for desserts. They have fixed seatings and you move as a group of 16 guests. The service was the best... everyone we interacted with was welcoming, knowledgeable and had enthusiasm for their work. The team is a well choreographed group... everyone was working hard but seemed to love it. The wagyu was an upcharge for our selection, but worth every penny. They also talked us into the king melon... really delicious but I barely had the room at the end. The magic box was so special with such delicate bites. We couldn't finish it but they kindly boxed it up. There is a 22% gratuity included but they specify it's for the kitchen staff only. We wound up leaving a large additional gratuity because the service was so exceptional. It did bother me a bit... because I think everyone deserves a fair share of the gratuity pot... but it didn't keep me from giving them five well earned stars. Highly recommend this special experience! read more

This was one of the most expensive meals we've had so far. But all I can say is: wow! This experience was worth every penny! The service was absolutely fantastic. The ambiance was excellent in detail even down to the chopsticks and flatware! We liked that you don't just stay in one room-- you have the welcome drink and some apps in the first room. Then they bring you back to the main dining area for the next hour. Then you finish up in the dessert parlor with some incredible desserts. All behind a quaint and unassuming shop sign on a side street of Park Ave. The most important thing in a place like this is the food... and they absolutely delivered in that front! We've been to many chef's table experiences, and this may be the best one we've done in the U.S.! The food was truly an experience like no other we've tried. Usually with these experiences there are a few dishes that fall flat mixed in with some really good ones, but at Ômo the dishes were all fantastic, from the lamb pastrami, to the king crab nanatsuboshi rice, to the Australian Wagyu filet! I realize that the price point is not accessible to all, but if you are willing and able to eat here, I would absolutely recommend it! read more

This was my first experience eating at a 2 star Michelin restaurant in the U.S. and it didn't disappoint. One thing I loved about this experience though, even though the food and service were top notch it wasn't super pretentious and still felt very comfortable! We chose "The Journey" which was the mid tier menu. I loved that the meal was transitional, with appetizers in one space, main courses in another, and desserts in another. It was fun moving around and experiencing the different atmospheres. Out of the snacks, my favorite was a wagyu croustade which also had Korean seaweed on top... super flavorful and delicious. When it came to the entree dishes the chawanmushi stole the show... it was a buttery eggy custard with uni. This was so warm and comforting and has been my favorite uni preparation I have had! The rice dish with king crab and fresh truffle was also phenomenal. The dessert courses were also super fun; the first was a citrus bomb that burst in your mouth. The show stealer here was the kakigori, which is a shaved ice dish with hazelnut and chocolate. It was incredible. And of course the magic box at the end with little tasters was fabulous; although at that point we had to take most to go as we were pretty full! This was an incredible experience and definitely was worth it! read more

We came for my birthday and had a wonderful time. The experience was interesting traveling through the living room to the kitchen to the parlor.

Two stars based simply on the food. I was generally underwhelmed. For the price, pomp, and circumstance, the food did not measure up. It was lacking flavor and uniqueness. I came for the food and I left disappointed It REALLY pains me to leave a review like this, especially because the team there seems really nice, but I only wish I had been warned by someone else (so here I am hoping I can do that for someone else). Maybe the other reviewers before me had a different menu; otherwise, I don't get it. I did The Journey experience (which is the second tier out of 3) and added the caviar experience. No matter how good the service or ambience may be, if the food isn't special, it just doesn't make up for it. Truly, if you are charging me an arm and a leg, I should be thoroughly impressed and happy. I also think they need more comfortable seating for the main dining space. The seats were a bit narrow and the back of the chair was digging into my back. I also think they need a better place for patrons to store their purses because hanging multiple purses from one hook under the bar table, is very uncomfortable because it cuts into the leg space. I also found it strange that when we paid the bill, we were told that the automatically included 22% service fee went to the chefs only and any additional tip left would be for the front of the house. It's a little uncomfortable because I have not had to deal with that before and I am not sure of the expectations or norms when it comes to that. It almost feels like I'm expected to tip twice. This place has a lot of potential, but I have to be honest at this point, I would not return. read more

How fortunate we are to have this level of restaurant in Orlando now! There was a time when you had to go to New York, Chicago, LA, or, yes, Washington DC, where Omo's two-star Michelin parent is located, in order to have this type of dining experience. Now we have a wealth of fabulous omakase experiences in Orlando. But Omo isn't like the other omakases, because it isn't about sushi and sashimi, like Sorekara or Soseki. It's closer in concept to Camille, but with the added experience of moving from space to space as you dine. You begin in the lounge for a series of "snacks" featuring foie gras, wagyu, and caviar. Then you progress to dinner at an L-shaped counter that seats 16. Each course was a thoughtful and complex construction, meticulously assembled in front of us, and accompanied by a dazzling assortment of dishes, cutlery and yes, one set of chopsticks. Finally a flurry of sweet bites are served in the dessert room. The menu offers two levels of dining. We opted for the more elaborate version, The Jaunt. It's twenty or so courses included many pricey ingredients such as truffles, wagyu, and caviar. At about twice the price, it was an indulgence, but I don't know that the experience was otherwise significantly different for those who opted for the simpler menu. There were many stunning dishes, but the one that sticks in my memory was actually an intermezzo of peeled heirloom cherry tomatoes, wasabi, and verbena, served with basil sorbet! Service was as you would expect from the offspring of a two-star Michelin. Wine pairings are available, but we opted for a couple of bottles from the excellent wine list. There is a lot of competition in Orlando now, but I would say that as of this writing Omo is the city's most spectacular restaurant. read more

Amazed by the dinning experience at Omo. Loved the three different rooms throughout the food course. We started off in the lounge with bubbles and this is where we also decided what course we would be choosing. My husband and our friends all went for The Journey which was just the perfect amount of courses from beginning to end. It left us full and super satisfied. Starting with the apps in the lounge. We had four small bites here. The bites were all great. My favorite was between the bao bun and the croustade shima ají. Both were extremely flavorful. The bao was just super warm and comforting and the croustade was a refreshing savory bite filled with lots of texture and crunch. In the dinning room we ate five amazingly crafted courses. My favorite experience was picking out my own chopsticks for the scallop course. The entire kitchen and all the servers worked together to make the transition of each course so smooth. My favorite course dish in this room was the wagyu steak with wonton and a side of delicious bread. The meat was perfectly cooked. Refer to my photo. The wonton was burst with flavor from the broth. The bread was the perfect ending to scoop up the sauce the Wagyu was served on. The last room was the dessert room which had the dim relaxing ambiance. The dessert pieces were also so different and yet so good in their own way. The bomb was the most fun dessert. It burst in your mouth and was so refreshing. They recommend the bomb to cleanse your pallet. Since I love ice cream I leaned toward the Kaligori which was shaved ice with flavors of hazelnut and caramel. Absolutely light and sweet. The last dessert was a box of different chocolate and pastries which were all crafted so beautifully. The entire staff was very accommodating and had amazing energy. I enjoyed the music playlist of the restaurant, they even gave us a QR code to find it on Spotify. I related to the music as I grew up with these songs and enjoy early 2000s hip hop. Great addition to Orlando! read more

A 5 star experience all the way through! From the moment you arrive, you're treated like VIPs. Brought to a seating area and showered with Champagne and small bites, you feel like you're transported to another place. Every little dish is carefully crafted by a team of chefs. When taken into the main dining area, you immediately are stared with out of this world appetizers. Uni, Wagyu, truffle... every high end ingredient known to man. Dessert is another room as well and it's so comfy! A well needed reprieve after all the food. Still, the service here never lets up, and we are always treated like top priority. The chocolates are such a nice touch as well. And the ice cream! It's really shaved ice, but it's phenomenal and uses a one of a kind machine imported from Japan. Overall, it's a pricey dinner, but it's well worth it when you consider the experience you get. It really is more than just food here. It's a whole vibe. And it's truly unforgettable. read more

There is "hospitality", then there is fine dinning and elevation, and then there is OMO by Jont. I was fortunate enough to visit the establishment in two different occasions, and may I say that each time, the team at OMO was able to go above and beyond, to exceed my expectation times 10. Coming from a luxury goods' background, I'm picky in my own ways. I look for quality, details, and execution. OMO by Jont is truly the finest chef's tasting menu experience you could ask for in Orlando metro. Tracy, who runs the show of front of the house is absolutely a ray of sunshine. And Juan who runs the chefs table in the back is an artist of fine dining hospitality. The team at OMO is like a beautiful orchestra who plays the symphony daily. I really don't have much more to say, except the fact that YOU NEED TO CHECK IT OUT. And you're welcome for the recommendation. read more

This was one of the strangest experiences I've ever had at a michelin restaurant. My girlfriend and I aren't rich but we enjoy fine dining so we do it a couple times a year and have some expectations around that. It's really not a big deal but it was a sign of things to come when we had to wait by the host stand for several minutes waiting to even be greeted. We were about 15 minutes early so our seats weren't ready which is fine so we were shown to the bar. We asked the bartender for a non alcoholic menu and then proceeded to watch her do everything (including drinking from her own bottles of wine interestingly) except retrieve that menu for 15 minutes. When she came back to ask if we were ready we had to remind them we were still waiting to even see a menu. By this time it is our reservation time and I see another group come in and get sat immediately while we are still at the bar. The original bartender I guess realized they messed up because then someone else came over with the N/A menu and took our drinks and I asked about our seats. We got our drinks and proceeded to sit there until 20 minutes after our reservation, watching another group get seated immediately when they walked in. We finally told the original bartender we were leaving and asked to make sure we didn't get charged for the missed reservation. Then the new helper came back and told us the table was ready because of course and then tried to convince us to stay but the mood was ruined. We ended up at Ravenous Pig where the food was great and we were greeted by not 1 but 3 people immediately upon walking in. I'm not really upset because at least they showed their ass early and I was able to get out before sinking any money into it but I really can't say that I would recommend this place based on the service we got. The drink I had was decent though and I can't speak for the food because I never got any. I will say I did think it was interesting that they have their full tasting menu posted because that means it never gets updated which seems unusual for this tier. I'm not even really blaming the bartender here. Like it's crazy to have one person bartending that whole front room. One of the things I generally love about fine dining is that couple times a year that I get to feel pampered and this is just not it. They need to hire some more staff if they want to keep that star but based on what I've seen I think they just got it and are cashing in but have given up on actually keeping the restaurant running at a michelin star level. read more

I took my girlfriend to Omo by Jont for her birthday, and it was an exceptional experience by Chef Ryan Ratino. I have been to Chef Ryan's Michelin-starred restaurants in DC, both Bresca and Jont, and his concept for this restaurant in regards to the food experience, service, and atmosphere was top tier, and wouldn't have expected any different. I love the fact that he continues to play hip hop music in all of his restaurants. When you first walk in, you are greeted, and seated immediately. Here you can make add-ons to the tasting experience such as the Japanese Crown Melon, which was $30. Afterwards, you begin your journey where you are provided 1 of 3 dining experiences starting with champagne and delicious snacks, then move over to the dining table for the second dining experience with amazing courses, and lastly, make your way to the pastry table for the final dining experience with exquisite desserts. Overall, the experience was one of a kind, and would definitely return as their menu does change! Highly recommend checking out any of Chef Ryan's restaurants, as you will not be disappointed. read more

What an exciting new addition to the culinary scene here in Orlando! They only opened a few weeks ago but they operate as smoothly as a Michelin-starred restaurant. How is it possible they're already so manicured? I am so impressed.... The restaurant is purposefully unmarked from the outside (likely to limit walk-ins) and the vibe when you walk in is very chill. Super friendly hosts meet you and show you to a lounge area where you sit and at small bites/drink champagne. The chairs are situated in pairs but are close enough together that you can have a conversation with other guests. Each bite is prepared so artfully with popping and balanced flavors and the serve ware is super unique. You then head to the back room where you're seated at a bar surrounding the garnishing/serving and stove area to have entree dishes, all smoothly and perfectly prepared on interesting, museum-worthy serve-ware that feels nice to use. You'll have so many different types of proteins throughout the experience. We had foie gras, bluefin tuna, bafun uni, king crab, pork belly, and A5 waygu. Its fun to watch the chefs at work- there is very good energy between them. After your delicious entrees, you'll feel like you have no more room in your stomach but you'll have to find some because there is another room you'll visit where the desserts are served.... I am not sure how I ate that much in one meal but I some how managed it! Every morsel was really exquisite, the atmosphere was super enjoyable, the servers were very conversational... Yes, it is a very expensive meal, but you're getting a 2-3 star Michelin experience. We would go back for special occasions! read more

This was an amazing dining experience! I went here with a few friends on a Saturday evening and was not disappointed! I am originally from Orlando and lived in DC for 15 years and this is by far one of the more exceptional restaurants. The appetizers were all amazing, my favorite was the bao bun. I also really enjoyed the crab with the rice. It was very savory and buttery. I highly recommend adding the truffle to your course if that is an option. We also had sake (kid murozan junmai ginjo) with our meal, which paired Crowell since it is Japanese inspired. I also enjoyed the Japanese barracuda dish with the wake me so. I'll be wagyu was not my favorite, a little on the chewy side, but I'm used to Japanese Wagyu. The desserts were all amazing! And the dessert chefs were great. The service was impeccable. I highly recommend trying this restaurant, you will not leave disappointed! read more

The experience was very nice. I have never experienced a dinner where you are relocated to different portions of the restaurant for different portions of the menu. We shared appetizers in the "living room" and champagne and upgraded to caviar too. We then went to the kitchen for the mains. In the kitchen I think the temperature rises and it gets a little uncomfortable, seeing the chefs break sweat is not comfortable to me either. After the mains we went to the dessert room and were given a cute alcove that was sweet and cozy. I loved that. The hot fresh madelaines were to die for. And the magic box was fun with delicious treats. I read on another review that someone had mentioned balancing for some of the dishes. That frankly resonates with how I feel too... some dishes had some overwhelming components. For instance the "takoyaki" the filling was a bit too much quantity I think although the flavors were nice. Another thing was the duck. The knife didn't cut it (literally) and I was sawing back and forth. Then with my smaller bite I still ended up giving up on chewing and tried to swallow the entire piece I put in my mouth because it wasn't breaking up. I know duck is not everyone's cup of tea, but this duck at least gave me a laughing moment as I watched everyone else covertly try to cut up that meat and chew. Overall the experience was memorable. A bit expensive. And not terrible. Hopefully they see this and change the duck! If not, prepare yourself for a laugh read more

The restaurant itself is extremely nice, the service was very good, the food was meticulously prepared, but for my taste some of the balancing was not to my liking. Overall the food is very good, the desserts were outstanding. If you're a fan of this type of restaurant you will enjoy yourself. read more

Immersive food experience! Better than dinner and a show! We did the lunch... I chose the gold plated chopsticks and added the caviar. Great vibe... great music! Scrumptious dishes... one after another! Chef Ryan and staff hit it out of Winter Park! read more

We had a great experience from beginning to end. The use of the space was very creative, with the dining experience taking you through different rooms from appetizers, main course then dessert. Those whimsical face cups are the best! The food was delicious, artfully presented feeding both the eyes and the palate. The service was on point, you felt welcomed and pampered from the moment you step in. Words aren't enough : you must experience this for yourself. read more

Omo by Jont is quite the experience! From the moment we stepped inside everything was absolutely perfect. Service was phenomenal, the attention to detail was exceptional. And the food, oh my god the food. Every dish was expertly executed and beautifully plated. We had such an amazing night, I very highly recommend Omo! read more

Absolutely exceptional experience! Not a detail was overlooked, whether in service, decor, ambiance, or the 25+ delicious courses. Every course utilized the highest-quality ingredients, from fresh fish to tender wagyu to highly seasonal produce, prepared and plated right in front of you. The meal started out with creative and beautiful small bites, from foie gras brioche donuts to pork steam buns, in a more casual setting to give you a chance to chat with the chef, staff, and other diners for the evening. From there, we all moved to a gorgeous and elegant chef's counter for the main savory courses; this room featured an open kitchen, where you could see each course being prepared (some over an open fire!). There are far too many courses to go into detail for each one; bluefin tuna with fermented strawberry consomme, king crab rice with a huge pile of black truffle, corn chawanmushi with uni, melt-in-your-mouth porcelet, A5 wagyu, buttery milkbread, and more! And then, for perhaps my favorite part of the experience, we all moved into the dessert lounge for a sweet finale to the over 3-hour experience. Kakigori was shaved from fresh blocks right before serving, and an exquisite chocolate truffle dessert with a variety of unique flavors and textures was carefully plated in front of all of the guests. Last but certainly not least, a fun selection of truffles, madeleines, macarons, and other dessert bites were presented in specialty-made boxes with lots of fun hidden compartments. Despite the elegance and quality of each course, the evening was fun and interactive and laid-back, with upbeat music and a non-pretentious atmosphere. An awesome addition to the rapidly growing Orlando food scene; I can't wait to return! read more
