Exquisite! The table service was slightly rushed in the beginning (we prefer the dining vice scarfing our faces like Neanderthals experience). When that was expressed, the service swiftly changed to our liking and we had a lovely time! The food was impeccably curated and masterfully paired by the sommelier.

I was torn between visiting Joia and 2 other restaurants, and I'm glad I picked Joia (again)! I had my mother over during the festivities and wanted to treat her to a nice meal and experience. And Joia didn't disappoint! Actually, it went beyond my, our expectations! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance, the warm welcome, and the prompt (but not too invasive) approach were fantastic! But the winners were our server Natasha (with her attentive service) and the receptionist Sifo (I hope I spelled his name correctly) with his charm and knowledge of the power station history. He even took us for a quick tour of the upstairs pool and rooftop bar despite the snow and freezing conditions. I couldn't have asked for more, and I'll certainly recommend it to others and def come back again! Thank you Joia!! It was a truly joy-FULL experience!
