Jonas' Hungarian Restaurant

Proudly serving Calgarians authentic Hungarian food since 1999.

With a mixture of emotions, we write this message to you today. As many of you already know, after 24 wonderful years of serving the Calgary community, we have closed the doors of Jonas' Hungarian Restaurant. We wanted to take this opportunity to express our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you who has been a part of our journey.

Your unwavering support, kind words, and shared moments have enriched our lives beyond measure. We have had the privilege of witnessing celebrations, milestones, and even quiet, intimate gatherings. It is these memories that will forever hold a special place in our hearts. You have become more than just customers to us; you have become an extended family.

From the very beginning, our mission was to bring a taste of Hungary to Calgary and to create an experience that transported you to the vibrant streets of Budapest. We poured our hearts and souls into every dish we served, every recipe we meticulously crafted, and every detail we considered. Our hope was always to provide you with an authentic culinary journey, accompanied by warm hospitality and a cozy ambiance. We hope that, in some small way, we were able to achieve this and create cherished memories for you.

However, as with any journey, there comes a time for a new chapter to unfold. Circumstances change, priorities shift, and the inevitable winds of time blow us in different directions. It is in this spirit that we have made the difficult decision to close Jonas' Restaurant. While we may be closing our physical doors, the memories, friendships, and connections we have made will remain etched in our hearts forever.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for being a part of our Jonas' family. It has been an honor to serve you, and we will forever cherish the times we've spent together.

With deepest appreciation and fondest memories,

The Jonas Family

👋👋Dear Guests,👋👋

Starting Thursday, January 26, we will only be open for dinner. Our new hours of operation are:

Tues - Sat: 5:00 PM - 8:30 PM

Please also note:
Due to increased volumes and to best serve our guests, we kindly recommend that takeout orders are submitted with 24-48 hours notice, and that reservations are made so that we can guarantee your table. Your patience is appreciated. 🙏🙏

Hello Calgary! 📢📢

Since announcing our upcoming closure, we have experienced a surge in takeout orders and diners. While we absolutely love and appreciate your support, this also means that some extra time and patience is required in order to serve every customer with the quality of service they have come to expect from Jonas'.

❗️For the time being, we kindly recommend that takeout orders are submitted 24-48 hours ahead for us to be able to guarantee fulfillment.❗️

We apologize for any inconvenience this rise in volume has caused, and appreciate your support of our family business and passion for authentic Hungarian cuisine. ❤❤

Hello YYC! This holiday season, Jonas' will be closed Dec 24 - Jan 4.
We wish all our guests a restful holiday season, and Rózsa and János are looking forward to seeing you in the new year!
Kellemes Karácsonyi Ünnepeket!
🎄🤶🎅🎁🕎🍾🥂

Yes, the rumors are true! János and Rózsa are retiring next year, and Jonas' will close. Operating our family business in downtown Calgary since 1999 has been a truly unique and wonderful experience. We are so thankful for the babies we watched grow, and eventually bring their friends for a meal. For the joyous and sombre occasions we got to share with you. The big life milestones, but also the daily smiles and chatter. Even during trying times like the past couple of years, we felt connected with and relentlessly supported by this community. You are appreciated.
🍻👋🥘❤️
We have put our business up for sale in the hope that someone else might continue our legacy and serve as a gathering place for comfort food lovers in the West End. We will continue to run Jonas' as usual until Spring/Summer 2023. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or inquiries. Thank you very much for the many-many years of support!
