   Been to J&I about 6 times. Definitely my least favorite time was last night. I might have ordered wrong but the flavors just weren't all there.

   Interesting setup for dining and we were seated in the upper area near the bar with good view of the rest of the restaurant. We loved the food sizes as we could order 5 different dishes without feeling like over eating. The prices are on the higher side but the quality is good.

   The food was incredible but the service was the standout feature for us. We went for a birthday and the menus were customized with "happy birthday ___" written on them. The hostess, server, and a manager came over to wish him happy birthday and provided a small dessert for the occasion. Aside from that, the drinks were tasty and strong. The food was incredibly flavorful and portioned well. We only ordered a few small plates as our meal and it was filling. The sourdough bread is amazing and a must order to start. Overall, wonderful experience and would go back again.

    Took forever to get our food. After an hour fifteen we only had our bread order. Ended up canceling our main course after 2 hours as we didn’t want to wait more. We spoke with the manager and they did comp some of our apps and our dessert which was nice. Pretty disappointed and will not be returning.

    Food was mediocre, only 3 of our 7 dishes were seasoned and “memorable” We were not in the main dining room (enclosed patio) and the energy was not great either. Overall; expected was more.

    The yellow tail with melon was the most surprising, and perfect combo. Delicious! And who would have thought figs would be a good appetizer… soooo good! And paired with the refreshing yet flavorful Wind and Sea cocktail, this dining experience was divine!

    The steak was overcooked and the waiter brought the check when he served the dessert. They kept on coming and asking if they could take our food away while we were still eating. Could be a bit more polished service when you charge 120 for a steak.

    We had a lovely work dinner for 6 and enjoyed every morsel and cocktail. We had an off menu gin cocktail which was divine and included cherry juice. The following day all of my colleagues thanked me for arranging our fine dining experience and said the food was both memorable and one of the best meals they'd ever eaten.

    We went for our anniversary. The space is amazing, though a little dark. Hard to see the beautiful plates. Received complimentary champagne. We ordered the sourdough and four small plates. Left full. Food was great and the combos of flavors outstanding. Highly recommend the sourdough, chopped salad, pork belly and black cod.

    I love Juniper & Ivy and have been going there for years now. But this experience alone, was one that I did not expect. Our server neglected us most of the night (mind you, we ended up being there for 3h! Good thing we were just enjoying ourselves), our waters running dry even though we were right at the counter, in front of the serving station. Food was so delayed too, but overall delicious. To our surprise, the tomato burrata pasta was nearly impossible to eat as it was so spicy (no mention on the menu). But I won't let this experience taint my love for this restaurant, I will definitely be back and hope for new memories.

    In July 2019 the menu was a 5-star menu, now it's more pedestrian, less inventive, but still tasty. Most items we had were greta for sharing and a decent value, but the chicken liver mousse was - Not. Good. From the grape jelly to the peanut butter miso cookies, I do not understand this dish at all. Was idea to cover up the mousse 200%? The mousse itself was overly sweet, but to then add a sugary grape jelly and sweet and very salty cookies to the mix, it's a total miss. Let the mousse speak for itself, serve it with nothing but some toasted bread - you can even keep the price the same. Food was a much better experience back in July 2019, but the service and atmosphere are still very much enjoyable.

    Our experience at Juniper and Ivy was good, but not outstanding. Here are the main reasons why I would think twice before going back: - Quality: the food here was good, but in my opinion not good enough to command such high prices on the menu. For example, we ordered the fried snapper and tuna wellington and both were a bit dry and lacking seasoning. The drinks were also slightly weak and very simple and sweet. - Portion sizes: the tapas-style dishes were advertised as shareable, but most of them only came with 1-2 pieces (hand rolls, raviolo) - Service: after putting in our order we were pressured into ordering an additional entree, which ended up being too much food and cost us an extra $50 I still really enjoyed the experience overall - the ambience was great and it was fun to try so many new and unique flavors - but I just can’t justify spending that amount of money for an experience that was lacking in some areas.

    Asked to be seated in another table with the exact amount of seats but further back, hostess could not accommodate due to another party showing up an hour later with same amount of people in their party. Doors opened late. Waiter over filled water. Food was cold. Bathroom smelled like it hadn’t been thoroughly cleaned in weeks.
