    We took advantage of the Tasting menu which did not disappoint. It was an amazing way to sample this very technical and delicious cooking.

    My husband and I celebrated our anniversary by having brunch at Jun and I have to say I'm so happy we did! We tried the shrimp, which was so light and refreshing and truly unexpectedly flavorful. There was heat and salt and so much yumminess! We moved on to Mussels...this was only my second time having them anywhere so I can't compare to others but I am a HUGE fan of Jun's. Loved the broth that came with them, and to me they weren't slimy or chewy or anything gross...they were awesome! From there we tried the fried chicken with Thai honey sauce. It was good, but probably my least favorite of all my choices. It sat a little heavy...I think the coating might simply be too much for me. That said it was still tasty! After that came Tapioca Pudding and the Empanada. While I liked the Empanada, with the cream cheese and guava, I think I'd pass on it next time. It was good but not special...not like the Tapioca Pudding, which we both found to be a shining star to end the meal. It was light, it was refreshing, it was creamy and milky with a hint of fruity goodness. SOOO good...I'd get two of those next time! The ONLY thing I'd mark Jun down on was it is so very LOUD. There's no sound dampening at all. This is not a romantic, quiet conversation place. This is a shout over everyone to be heard space. Don't let that stop you, though. The food and service is absolutely worth the noise.

    Would happily return! The tasting menu was the way to go and we added on the fried chicken. I’ll be dreaming of the chicken for a long time. Wonderful ambiance and great service too.

    We absolutely loved our dinner here! The staff is extremely welcoming and friendly. The restaurant itself is such a cool, chic vibe - perfect for the heights. The food was the absolute best part! Every single bite was amazing. Our favorites were the aguachile shrimp and the fried chicken!! Definitely coming back to share with friends

    Went for our anniversary. They had a card in our table signed by the staff. That was very thoughtful. Food was amazing as you would expect nothing less from two Top Chef stars. A little pricey and this is a “foody” place so look at their menu. The shrimp and the ribs were our favorite. The Som also gave us a pairing for our menu selections. Will definitely go again.

    Jūn exceeded expectations! We were seated at the Chef counter which was not expected but thoroughly enjoyable. We decided to experience the chef’s 7 course tasting menu to get bites of several different dishes. Every course was well explained by each server which was appreciated. The fusion of flavors between Chefs Lu and Garcia work so well together. My husband chose the wine pairing and I had a turmeric infused vodka/coconut milk cocktail called Golden Hour. It was delicious. We will definitely return to try more menu items.
