Me and my sister decided to have a chill night, and jaz night was perfect although we dont drink alcohol but the atmosphere was worm and welcoming I could stay all night eating and chatting. I would like to thank Richard, prestine, wayan for their lovely hospitality, smile and warm welcoming.

The food at jones is always stellar. If you’re lucky enough to be served by Richard, your experience will be stellar too. He is kind and attentive and focused.Kevin and Bella were great! They helped with recommendations for food and cocktails as well as making helpful suggestions for additional items to go with our meal.

Very poor service with disaffected staff who didnt even know what was on the menu. Waited 25 minutes for burger (wagyu). Cheese staff were good. No check of temperature on entering facility because desk not staffed.

AC not working properly. Breakfast took for ever to arrive and was served cold. Overpriced for quality and portion size. Dirty toilets. Was overbooked and took them 15 more minutes to correct it. I can go on and one. Avoid it and save your time and money.

The first time I visit the place but it is not the last we will visit many times in the future because it is an amazing place and we love cheese of all kinds. They have a great kids menu, we loved the delicious lunch box with cheese sandwich with pieces of fruits, vegetables and dessert, the place is very clean and sterile, the dishes are presented in an amazing way by the chefs inside the restaurant, the place is very quiet, and the music is great. We liked the meat with cheese. Especially on Thursday nights, in beautiful Abu Dhabi branches, raclette cheese is served with meat and potatoes in a wonderful way. And unlimited drinks. Thank you to all the restaurant staff

Amazing dining experience,For cheese lovers, you must visit this place and enjoy every moment you spend inside the restaurant, whether you are with family or friends, the service is excellent and the staff is distinguished, the dishes are wonderful, the cheese with grapes and nuts is amazing, the taste is magical, the smell of different types of cheese fills the place, Thursday night the raclette cheese is different and you will like it They are filling and many snacks with unlimited drinks made us want to go there every Thursday in Abu Dhabi. We loved the experience and highly recommend a visit

It’s been a while since I came to Jones the Grocer and I discovered it has a new menu. I like the new menu since it has a variety of dishes which I find them to be delicious. The choices and more diverse and more mainstream. Tried the tomato and avocado salad for starters and for main menu the linguini. Recommended! The problem with the old menu was that the food was a bit greasy for my taste and the cooking style was unappealing.

Review №26

Great cakes and desserts. The fries are wonderful and their salmon is also excellent. But stay away from the French Press coffee - I had to ask them to make another and it was still very strange tasting.

Everything is great in Jones the grocer except for the parking.Great selection of food, innovative and satisfying sandwiches, delicious desserts, great coffee, fresh breads, excellent selection of cheeses : this is a great venue for anytime of the day, be it a full blown breakfast , light lunch or dinner or just a simple coffee break. Portions are generous and the quality of the food and service are consistently great. You can also grab and go from the selection of foods on display. There are some interesting kitchen accessories and gadgets as well as oils , pickles and more.Basically a great venue for a relaxing and satisfying experience.

I usually visit this restaurant at al mamoura building and i loved it however i can not say the same for one located in pearl tower. My visit was a complete disaster, it is not organized, it was cartoon box in the area of restaurant. When we called they told us something and later at restaurant was different, same happened when we ordered and when we tried to pay. It is not a relax place at all and it is not giving the same image that the rest of restsurant with this name.

Review №46

Jones one of my fav restaurants ! Australian resturant with continuous refresh to the delicious menu (seasoned menu and standard/signature menu), and Yes there are dishes that you may like will disappear after while :) ..Just for you to know, the food takes time to be served, and their staff specially in peak hours they forgot to come and ask costumes on their orders or to serve food on time , which frustrate costumers (this is only in abu dhabi Jones branches)good for single, couple, friends and families as well,

Lets just get to the point, this is considered a fancy restaurant.- prices are bit high.- service is good.- place is nice (calm & quite) - Khalidya branch- the burger there is really good especially if you add mushrooms & truffles.- they have variety of healthy options for dinning.

Jones the Grocer has always had a unique presentation in food and ambience. They do have creativity coming up with new items every now and then. Being on a gluten free diet I would love if they start introducing more gluten feee options and start baking delicious gluten free bread and pastries. I had a sweet potato soap yesterday reminded me of the pumpkin soup they had earlier and some cheese tasting as well. Looking forward to more dishes and gluten free options😊😊

The worst service ever. A breakfast dish took more than 25 min and they brought me a wrong order. It was a waste of time.

Nice restaurant with well trained and kind staff and very tasty food. Currently, March 2018, there is an offer for a free kids meal if you order two items from the main course menu. There is also a mini market inside for culinary goods and also cooking and baking tools. Contemporary design and big space. Highly recommended.

Review №57

Not Dempsey Hill but beyond excellent by local standards. Look for vouchers.After visiting here several more times and finding the food so consistent it is hard to not award it 5 stars. The open plan kitchen means that it is always clean. There are aspirational coffee machines and kitchen gadgets dotted all around. The take away is popular. The bread is baked befire your eyes and the staff seem to enjoy being here. There is always a pleasant atmosphere with just enough space to feel cozy not cramped. There is a beverage list with grape and malts. There are rumours of a branch in a local palace but until youve made your way up the social ladder this branch will do fine.

Place is nice and quiet. Food is a bit pricey but quality is good and options are various. On a good weather evening the outside seating is nice and lively. Location is good and has a small childrens play area right in front of it as well.

Jones is a community staple where you can have a relatively healthy breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The added benefit of being able to have a glass of wine or beer with your meal is a benefit. Service is always good.

Food is great, customer service could do more improvement. I purchased a groupon and can understand why this place is not doing great. At nights the area outside the restaurant can become very rowdy with hundreds of kids playing around.

I would put 4.5 stars but no chance...food was really good no discussion but i believe that it can be excellent with just a little more effort. With the type of place and facilities you have it would be easily achievable...

Went for brunch and had tasty coffee and nice salad sandwich. Coffee was too small and compared to Starbucks across the road, Starbucks is better value.Pleasant music playing, friendly staff, good service.

The food is always excellent at Jones the Grocer - they have a fresh and interesting menu, which varies regularly. We have just had a family lunch there - the spatchcock chicken was particularly good. They has a festive menu on until the 30th December, which added to the variety on the menu. Good food and good service.

Came here with some colleagues and it was great. The food was great and the service was great! I had the chicken harissa with a pumpkin and feta salad, the lunch also came with a lemonade, yum!The others had fish and chips, a burger, and a few sandwiches. I wanted to sample all of it!! So might have to return for more.

Ordered takeaway and received my sweet potato fries in a box with a side of melted plastic on top. The ketchup container was deformed since the plastic melted. I raised my concern and received another box with the exact same problem. Not so sure on food health and safety standards unless you dont mind a toxic meal.

Review №95

I’m so disappointed with what Jones did to their Caesar Salad on the new menu because it now only comes with chicken and you have to pay 72 AED even if you ask them to remove the chicken. They used to make the best Caesar that I had tasted in Abu Dhabi and now I won’t get to enjoy it anymore because I won’t pay that much for a salad which I would ask them to remove the chicken from (previously it used to be 52 AED for a plain Caesar Salad and you could ask to add chicken for an extra cost).

Ko
Review №96

Food is excellent. Prices are ridiculous. 5 stars for the food 1 star for the value i just dont believe basic breakfast fare like eggs should cost this much its a straight up robbery. Some argue the ambience, ill meet them halfway at 3*s. I guess come eat here if youre loaded.
