    Food was top-notch, very spicy but amazingly balanced, and the wait staff were super professional - personal, but precise and unobtrusive. They brought us an amazing dessert for my partner’s birthday. A great place to spend a special occasion. Noisy when packed with people.

    Picked Juju before a show at DPAC. Great location. Originally had reservation at the bar, but was very glad to be given an option of outside in the shade (inside was very noisy). Service was great! Good was very good too (Brussel Sprouts, pork belly bin, Mongolian beef), until our final most expensive choice came out. the sesame encrusted tuna. NOT worth it. for $35 I had high expectations and was very disappointed. no flavor whatsoever. If tapas is your scene, go for it, just avoid the tuna.

    We went to dine before play over at DPAC I WISH I HAD TAKEN PICTURES AND TAKEN NOTES OF EVERYTHING WE HAD. I’LL SAY FIVE PLATES AND SHARE THEM BETWEEN THE TWO OF US. IT WAS SO GOOD BOMB A SHRIMP DELICIOUS, the bread with a butter on top of it and the scallions, outstanding brussels sprouts holy mackerel. Make sure you start up first to get all the flavor is combined. It’s really delicious. I know we had a couple of others, but I can’t remember, but it was amazing atmosphere. Excellent waiter. Food was delicious.

    I’ve been to Juju several times. Lovely place to take people who are visiting and locals as well!! Great food and atmosphere. We love the salad rolls, spicy garlic noodles, hickory smoked pork ribs, and General Tso’s chicken. We recently tried the short rib wontons, bing, and the sweet chill cucumbers, which were also great!
