Went here as our first fine dining experience we didn't know what to expect. We ordered the valentines menu and it was.. well, different to what we were used to but in a good way. The food and drink pairings was very well thought out, the food presentations looked exquisite and tasted different from what it looked like. But they were good.
Very creative menu that they crafted that day and it was amazing. The staff are knowledgeable and accomodating, the service was fast and the food came out at the right pace. Atmosphere was also lovely because it felt quite homey, well being an introvert and all I find it great.
Wagyu was cooked so nice, wish we could have had more so yeah, I will definitrly visit them again to check their other menus to see the chef's creativity with the food again. :)

What a place!
Absolutely loved the atmosphere! The staff really took the time to make the experience unique. We got stepped through each meal and each wine. I hadn't eaten this well in a long time.
It is spenny, but quite worth it in my opinion. Would recommend and will be coming again!

Worth every penny that we spent! Out of the 3 chefs one was on holiday and the other two did a fantastic job serving us heavenly delights. The service, food and vibes were truly exceptional. Enjoyed every moment of it. Thanks heaps Aki and Pierre! We will be back again to experience the magic.

Amazing!!!!! Jano delivered a stunning meal with every dish being delicious and the wine pairing beautifully matched. This may be my new favorite place to eat and I cannot wait to go back! I also love that they can accommodate dietary restrictions as long as you give them 72 hour notice.

We enjoyed a lovely 9 course menu served by the chef on Christmas evening. It was an maxing experience with very good food. Great place for an special dinner in Wellington.

A beautiful 9 course degustation with great service and optional wine pairing. The menu changes based on seasonal produce. The chefs bring the food out to your table themselves to explain what's on your plate and how it was prepared. A great little find in central Wellington and highly recommended.

This is an experience. Yes, it is expensive and you will spend over 2 hrs there, but the staff makes you feel special and you know that what you're tasting is well crafted. It wasn't pretentious as many fine-dining places tend to be. The skills and quality of produce shows and it makes it definitely worth it.

We went to Jano for the first time last weekend. I had heard really good things about this place. The tasting menu with matched wines was a memorable event. The dishes are creative, beautifully presented and taste amazing. The service was impeccable, the wine match was spot on. If you are looking for a special experience, I recommend Jano.

I have a new #1. Been here twice and it beats everywhere in terms of quality, atmosphere, service and knowledgeable friendly staff. But the food is a celebration per mouthful, there are no words to describe it's superiority in sight, taste and texture. The experience is orgasmic. The flavour combinations work, and you get the dish served in multiple ways. For instance you don't just get the duck meat, instead you get a variety of the duck on the one plate as a fillet, leg, mousse, sauce, gravy and the veges are cooked in duck fat etc to make full use out of the one ingredient. And the wine matches advised by staff set the mood for an intimate affair between your tastebuds and the pairing at hand. Pierre is the genius behind all this and he has the best staff on his team. Everything was perfection! And this place is so comfortable unlike some of the fancy places that are uptight snobs. Dining here is a delightful pleasure on every level hence it's ranking in my books. My first experience here blew me away and set the benchmark, but I needed to be sure it could consistently deliver the same high standard each time, and the second time round was even better. It has no equal.

A amazing surprise in Wellington: a real 5Stars restaurant.
the service was great, competent and courteous. The ambient is elegant, tidy&clean and you can breath a warm atmosphere. No kids or noisy people, a good place for a date or for a special occasion.
And the food....oh my.... was simply delicious. Tastes and flavours have literally danced in my mouth. I couldn't believe how much good was the "second" (Chicken with porcini and green beans). The choc dessert was special.
Everything I've tried was amazing ( I couldn't resist and I stole a bite from my husband dishes)
I'm Italian, I love good food and I think this one was one of the best I've ever eaten. I think the chef is a gift for all the Wellingtonians.
My only complain is the place: a small character heritage building is too close to the highway, too far from the foot traffic. From outside no one could believe this is a food-gem. I'm glad my husband and I were enough curious to try this isolated restaurant.

We had our office Christmas Dinner here. The chef produced a really nice degustation menu with some very lovely wines. The restaurant very nicely opened especially for us on a Monday night, which was very much appreciated. Everyone enjoyed their evening and the staff were very attentive. Would very happily return here.
