Everything delish~
From the gin old fashioned, to the negroni, gin-icillin, shishito peppers, seared cauliflower, and wild mushroom risotto... Excellent. Ambience was on point☆ Attentive service and great recommendations were... read more appreciated. The pouring rain outside added mood points. Perfect evening☆☆☆
November 29, 2021Another local restaurant/bar that I frequent. You'd be good going once because their menu is limited (food). The steak and fries are always oversalted so I sadly have to mention... read more that On the other hand, they have over 200+ Gins to choose from.
January 29, 2022This place has amazing cocktails! I’m knocking off a star though as $8 for 1 small slice of focaccia is outrageous and feels a bit out of touch. Additionally, the... read more risotto was ill-balanced. However, the rest of the food was great and had decently reasonable portions for the price.

Really great food. Everything smelled great and tasted better.
March 1, 2022I can't say enough incredible things about Joli! For starters, the quality, value and care of the food served is enough to rival Canlis. And oh my, the gin...... read more Whether you're an amateur or an afficianado, you will be impressed by the cocktail menu options as well as the plethora of international gin options on the wall. Go here. For real. You won't be disappointed.
December 29, 2021Not for the picky eaters. But for those of us who feel like living an adventure you better put this place on your list of places to eat. It's a... read more wonderful experience of flavor and out of this world drinks. You won't have gin like this anywhere else. And for the average veggie avoidant (like my boyfriend) you will find yourself gobbling down those Brussel sprouts you fed to your dog when you were five. The chicken sandwich would kick Chick FIL A in their unmentionables as for the small price of 15 bucks you go all the way down to flavor town along with a kings ransom of delicious fries. The sauces are those of which you would have to try to believe how incredible they are. Out of the THOUSANDS of restaurants in the Seattle area.. this is a must TRY.

If you're reading this because you're considering going to Joli, do yourself a favor and make the trip. Food, drinks, and service all exceeded my expectations. I stopped by here around 9 pm on a Friday night and was wowed by each thing that was brought to the table. Every drink and dish was both uniquely executed and thoughtfully balanced. My personal favorites were: Short rib, squash salad, shishito peppers and the gin-icillin. Joli is the perfect spot for a date night or family dinner for all foodies and gin lovers.

I've lived in Seattle for over a year and finally met rude people. When my husband asked for more info (flavorwise) about the oysters, the employee said, "I don't have an answer if you don't have a specific question, and I have 14 drinks to attend to". Terrible service. On top of that, the food was below average, considering the price point. I don't recommend this place

My wife and I first came to Joli in 2021 and frankly were not impressed. We came back in this weekend for a second chance and had our opinion swayed.
We had the ribs, the squash salad, broccolini, and their sorbet - I can not describe how AMAZING our meal was and we are anxious to come back again. 5/5
We did however feel that the service could have been better. For a place that offers such craft food and gin centric cocktails - we would have hoped for more lively staff to accentuate the restaurant's driving features.
Maybe it was an off night; regardless, we shall be back.
