One of the best meals I’ve had this year. The food was hearty yet refined and delicious. The staff were exceptionally warm and gracious. I’ll be back!

We stopped into Joon as we were walking back towards the East End. It was very busy, but we were lucky to get a spot at the bar and enjoy some great cocktails. The bartenders went out of the way to make us feel at home and were very friendly. The drinks were nice and strong too. The overall vibe is very warm and inviting. Next time we definitely have to try to have dinner here as well.

One of the very best in town. Yes, the prices are high but it is one of the more creative menus in Ptown, served by a professional (if curt) staff, in a low key white tablecloth atmosphere. It is worth the splurge.

You know your experience at a restaurant is going to be excellent when upon arrival you’re greeted by kind people who are smiling and exude confidence and a true welcoming feeling. This is Sean! Sean is a true asset to the Joon Bar establishment. My wife and I arrived Saturday evening thinking our reservation was for 6pm, but came to learn quickly, we were 1 week early.
Joon Bar was fully booked, clearly because everyone knows how great this restaurant is!
When Sean learned of our mistake, he literally moved mountains to make room for us. Thank you Sean! Your humor, your resourcefulness and your willingness to be creative to fit us in was, incredible! This kind of flexibility & thoughtfulness is not a trait found too often these days at restaurants, but a Joon Bar, it is!
Now onto the service & the food! Upon being sat at the bar, we met Billy and once again, another amazing person! Billy greeted us with a warm welcome! He went on to highlight a few great wines / cocktails he made some suggestions regarding appetizers and then gave an overview of the dinner specials. We started out with the whipped feta / cucumber salad and fried olives - All 5 stars! Our main course we had the pappardelle pasta and New York strip steak- Both were outstanding!
Thank you Joon Bar and thank you Sean & Billy for making our first Joon Bar experience a EXCELLENT one. See you next week!

Stopped here for a happy hour snack around 5 before heading to the beach for the sunset and it was perfect for that. I had a nice white linen cocktail and my partner was able to get a yummy mocktail that perfectly complimented our oysters. The granita they serve with the oysters was a nice change after a lot of mignonette at other places. We also shared a burrata salad but unfortunately for my gluten free partner (fortunately for me) she couldn’t have the fried olives so I had them all to my self and they were delicious. The host wasn’t the friendliest when we walked in but the owner came right over and greeted us warmly and the bartender while served us was lovely and well informed about allergies and cross contamination.

We were delightfully surprised at the comfortable seating, the personal service and the delicious food. Everything about our dinner was perfect. We arrived at 5:00 and were seated without reservation. We were traveling a distance to spend time here gallery shopping and we decided to celebrate a birthday and made our choice when looking for an interesting menu. The appetizers were really great. We had duck sliders on buttermilk biscuits (yum) and the Persian Lamb kabobs with zaatar.… so good! The green salad was very tasty and even better with the order of crusty baguette. You’ll love the fried olives with Manchego cheese, they were very flavorful. Thank you to the front and back of your lovely establishment. Great place .. We must return. ????

I am being generous with three stars. Previously, this was our favorite restaurant in Provincetown. We went there last night to find that the prices were outrageous for what you get and the menu is limited. Most entrées are $50 or above. We started with a soup and a salad, which were good. No bread offerings unless you purchase it as a separate appetizer. My husband‘s $36 burger was very good but they charge for the extras (Cheese and bacon) that are listed on the menu. I wanted to get the bouillabaisse but did not want muscles in it, and the waiter was emphatic that they could not leave out the muscles! Seriously, is that so hard? I ordered the falafel which came with two falafel balls, a very soggy cucumber, tomato salad, and a side of dipping sauce. The problem with it was that the dipping sauce was as thin as water. It was impossible for it to stick to either the pita bread or the two falafel balls. The option was to either do without or dip your food in a watery substance that basically ruined it. It should’ve never left the kitchen. So.. the soup, a salad, a burger and the falafel balls along with two drinks and a beer came to $150. $180 with gratuity. For $180 I expected a lot more. It seems to me that the menu limitations and the quality of the food has gone downhill.

Couldn’t accommodate 6 people. Gasping when we asked for table of six. To be fair we never ate there because the wait time was 2 hours.

Joon is such a quaint and charming environment. I’ve wanted to try it for years, and this was the year! The menu is incredibly small, so make sure there is something you want before booking it. There were two appetizer specials but not entrees. We split the incredible duck sliders everyone talks about (and are worth being discussed), and I got the bouillabaisse, which was quite delicious though scarce on amounts of seafood (2 mussels, one scallop halved in two, a small chunk of lobster, etc). The wine list is quite nice, and we skipped on dessert. The biggest complaint I have are the prices. The prices are astronomical for what you get and compared to others in town offering similar with more variety and/or better ambiance. At this price point I might consider the bar for a drink and some sliders or a burger, but I don’t know that I could justify $50+ an entree.

I had an exceptional experience at Joon Bar in Provincetown on August 29th, where the ambiance perfectly captured the essence of a modern American bistro. The cozy yet chic atmosphere made it an ideal spot for a relaxed yet refined evening. The drink menu stood out with its inventive cocktails and carefully curated wine list, offering something for every palate.
The food was a delightful blend of classic American flavors with a contemporary twist. Each dish was thoughtfully crafted, showcasing fresh ingredients and a creative approach to familiar favorites. The presentation was as impressive as the taste, reflecting a true dedication to quality.
What really set Joon Bar apart was the service—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming, which made the entire experience feel personal and special.
Joon Bar is a must-visit for anyone seeking a unique American bistro experience in Provincetown. It’s a place where great food, drinks, and atmosphere come together seamlessly. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

I rarely write negative reviews but I have dined here several times and NEVER have I been so disappointed. Thee of us got the halibut entree. My fish was over cooked and dry, presented in 2 small pieces instead of one filet, the skin was extremely soggy, the pesto sauce was on the soggy skin which made it inaccessible without eating the skin. The tomato corn salad was watery, bland and had zero acid component and there were no haricot verts on our plate as stated in the description. I took 2 bites and was done. The waiter did not come to our table to ask how the food was and my full plate was taken at the end of the “meal” without any solicitation of my opinion of the dish or perhaps why I didn’t eat it. All that for $50. The chef should be ashamed to serve such a subpar plate of food and the servers should MINIMALLY be trained to ask how the food is. I’ve heard that the quality of the food has declined this year but I never expected to have such an atrocious experience. I’ll never go back.

Beautiful spot, some of the best food on the lower cape. They offer a nice short menu and do everything very well. Amazing for a seasonal restaurant, not sure how they do it. Great service, nice ambience. We’ve been going to Joon for the last few years and continue to enjoy it.
