Have been twice now - completely brilliant spot and such good value.

We had reason to visit Matlock, and having read Giles Coren's review of Joro, we decided to make an overnight trip and have dinner here.It absolutely lived up to our expectations - the depth of flavours delivered was exceptional. We upgraded to the 10 course tasting with wine pairing and revelled in reliving each course with our night cap whisky. If you love your food and are happy to take the wine pairing recommendations which were unusual but perfect, you're in for a treat.The only reason I gave 4* for atmosphere was the music they played wasn't, in our opinion a great match for the food. We have a very contemporary Indie oriented taste in music, but there was just too much rap for our liking. I respect this is part of their style, but, for us, took the edge off the evening a little.But please don't let this put you off - the food is amazing, the staff charming and the wine adventurous - but forewarned is forearmed!We will definitely be back - and next time might simply make dinner at Joro our excuse to drive 3.5 hours from Epsom to Sheffield!Oh, and stay at House Of Joro if you can - loved the informality of the place - great to be able to sit and enjoy a book, or use the laptop in the cool communal living area. Continental breakfast was delicious - granola, yoghurt, smoked fish, banana muffin, treacle soda bread, Serrano ham and as much coffee or tea as your heart desires.

As a New Yorker with a taste for fine dining, I was blown away by Jöro in Sheffield. This place rivals some of the best restaurants worldwide, offering expertly crafted dishes, a fascinating drinks menu, and exceptional service. The food here goes beyond cooking—it’s culinary art, perfectly paired with thoughtfully selected beverages. The service strikes a perfect balance of attentiveness and discretion, contributing to an outstanding dining experience. Jöro is a true gem, proving that you don’t need to be in a big city to find world-class cuisine. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable meal.

Amazing food and great staff. We had a fantastic night enjoying the eight course tasting menu with paired drinks. Would highly recommend! We will be back.

A rare roasted saddle of local hogget, juicy as hell, and a little grilled kofte popping with high kebab flavours, a prickly jam of Cambodian peppers and tapenade, a wild garlic raita and a dense potato cake spread with lamb fat. Just the right amount of meat for me (in my youth, I might have clamoured for the rest of the sheep) and crying out for a well-aged pinot noir.

Second time here. Beautiful restaurant. Food was very surprising and most enjoyable.The service was fabulous apart from the bill that was £50 over. We politely brought this to their attention where they said we were wrong and it was correct, we questioned again and they realised we were correct. Just double check your bill when you go.Would definitely return.Head up to the nook prior for a delicious cocktail.

Had the vegetarian 8 course tasting menu and soft drink pairing. Food was amazing (especially the Jerusalem artichoke) and the soft drinks made by the house were well matched and full of flavours. Great value and great

Joro are undoubtedly deserving of at least one Michlin star.The foods are superb, well-thought-out dishes, with quality ingredients and wonderful flavours.The staff are very knowledgeable about the dishes and ingredients; the atmosphere and surroundings are top class.Already planning our next visit! Highly recommend, especially the kitchen bench experience.

We spent our Valentine's treat at the chef's table at Jöro, which offered an exquisite dining experience that seamlessly blends flavours from Asia, South America, and China. The 10-course menu is a culinary journey that showcases the creativity and skill of the chefs.Each dish is thoughtfully crafted to highlight the unique qualities of the ingredients while harmoniously integrating global influences. We started with Japanese milk bread, and a procession of beautiful and tasty dishes followed, including sea trout, baked haddock, octopus, pork belly, scallops, hoggert, finishing with Yorkshire rhubarb.Along with impeccable service and a commitment to quality, it's an experience that leaves a lasting impression.
Exceptional, truly a great experience start to finish. Thanks to all the staff, attention to detail is fantastic, never an empty water glass, and even went to the effort to wait to serve food till my partner was back at the table. Everything is so effortlessly themselves, a unique dining experience and something I recommend to anyone.Food is outstanding, and the balance of dishes is excellent, everything has its reason, and should not go unnoticed.

We visited Joro and stayed over in their accommodation. The restaurant is in a quirky industrial setting with a great bar above. My wife does not drink alcohol and Joro had the best and fullest menu of alcohol free drinks and cocktails. So much so that we will be returning even though we live 2 hours away. The food was amazing and the Owner/Chef Luke was very engaging as well as talented. I would thoroughly recommend a visit....
