10/10Came here to celebrate my 40yrs birthday and this placed has really delivered! The menu, the armosphere and most importantly, the service, all was perfect. Tartare ingridients were freshest of the freshest, highly recommend! Don' t get intimidated by the price of wine list, the quality of choice is really worth it. We felt very welcomed by the staff, who were so attentive to every detail, this made my special occasion really special. Also I was surprised by a dessert offered by the restaurant, which uplifted our already great experience even more.

10/10I've been to quite a few Michelin star restaurants and have not really suffered through bad service or marginal food at any of them. I have to say that the staff at J.K. exceeded expectations and really set a new bar for service and the experience, backed by some really fine food. My two teenage sons and wife were treated respectfully, weren't pushed and were given honest direction on the menu and on the wine list which ranged from some fairly pedestrian bottles to some truly esoteric labels - both domestic to Italy and foreign. The restaurant is not cheap but the value of the experience, the warmth of the wait staff and restaurateur and food quality created a great experience that my whole family truly enjoyed. We really needed a place like this after slogging through the assembly line fare near the tourist areas.

10/10The food, atmosphere and service are outstanding! This was our second visit to JKCafe and we were greeted like old friends. Our waiter was extremely friendly and helpful, attentive to our daughters’ nut allergies. The dining room - and the hotel in which it’s located - has a sophisticated yet comfortable vibe. It’s beautiful! We all enjoyed our food and drinks immensely, too! We would highly recommend this lovely restaurant!

10/10I have no words to describe how incredible this dinner was. Me and my partner came here for his birthday and we were both beyond delighted for the incredible food, outstanding service and stunning environment. Diego made our dinner more than special with his humour, kindness and dedication. We were left speechless when they even sang a birthday song for my partner with candles on a cake. Thank you and we cannot wait to come back next time. JK will always have a special place in our hearts.

10/10This place blew our minds. We came here for Christmas Eve dinner as many places in Rome were shut. But the experience here was nothing short of spectacular. We've been to many Michelin 3-stars and Best-* list winners, but the balance of charm, warmth and suavity of the service here has been incredible. The food was delicious and incredibly plated. A little on the pricey side (like any other upscale place) but well worth the visit. One of the few places I would want to come again to.

10/10When I booked a table at Jkcafe I didnt know that it was quite fancy, good thing they didnt turn us away, because we were in our casual/comfortable clothes. It was a great way to celebrate father’s day.

10/10My family and I went to JK Cafe as it was highly recommended during our trip to Rome and it exceeded our expectations. We were sat immediately at the cutest table. The ambiance was romantic, upscale and classy. We were greeted by a manager and our server Sam. Sam was amazing- friendly, funny and attentive. He brought us an appetizer and a dessert to try that we didn’t order (not sure if this was special for us or customary, but either way it was a nice surprise). We ate rib eye, potatoes and 2 different pastas and it was all delicious. Our whole experience was great from start to finish, but the staff made it memorable! Thank you so much!

10/10The food was truly amazing and the service as well. I wish I would have taken 3 course dinner because food is so extremely good and the portions are spot on so no need to worry about needing a wheelchair. So i reccomend everybody go all in, you will not regret it. I got the tenderloin with artichokes which was mindblowing!!! I did not think stake could possibly be this special???????????? love this restaurant????????

9.5/10We had an early Valentine’s Day celebration here and really enjoyed the experience. The food was beautifully presented, tasted amazing and was the right price. Service was impeccable if not a little too attentive for us but everyone was friendly and professional. I would definitely like to visit again.

10/10My partner and I had a beautiful meal in the restaurant - the service was fantastic, the staff were warm, welcoming and extremely professional. The food was lovely with large portion sizes and delicious nibbles sent by the chef. The wine list is extensive and fairly priced. All round a 10/10 experience!

9/10This would have been a ten but the chef was too heavy on the salt. We also had breakfast and asked for the salt to be cut back. Still too salty. Otherwise, an informal spot with the best service in Rome and reasonable for the service atmosphere and wine list. Limited but classical menu.

10/10The meal at JK had the best service we experienced in a restaurant in years. Federico was outstanding at providing a really great meal with lots of recommendations and surprises throughout. The food was incredibly well presented and full of flavor. We loved the interiors and decor of the space. I hope we get to return as it was really really wonderful.

10/10Absolutely amazing service and food. It is tucked away in the JK Rome hotel, quiet, beautiful decor and stylish atmosphere. One of the best meals these Americans have had in Italy so far. Highly recommend!

9/10Our group of 4 were seated in the lounge area and not the dining area where I had made the booking. This should’ve never happened for a group of 7, given that the dining rooms were rather empty! And waiter service less than attentive.
