   The chairs at the tables look good but they are too low. Even my 6’ tall friend felt low. Obviously, the designer doesn’t eat there. Felt like an 8 year old. The food was great but 55 minutes for a roasted chicken? There’s no way to pre cook them for quicker service. The same for TWO other items on the menu. The things we ordered were fantastic. High prices but value was still good for the quality of the food.

   Excellent waiter and outstanding food, but service overall was incredibly slow (took an hour just to receive drinks ans first round of starters). Kitchen/bar seems too small/overwhelmed for current seating capacity. Outdoor seating ambiance less than ideal (essentially a covered and heated open lot). Recommend inside seating.

   It lives up to hype. We were very late driving down from Los Angeles but they still accommodated us. The halibut in grape leaf was outstanding.

   We were blown away by all the flavors we experienced with every single bite. The roasted Duck was simply amazing. The manager checked on us a couple times. We had the Sommelier help us pick the perfect bottle of wine for our meal. I highly recommend any foodie person to check them out.

   Not enough vegetarian main entrées. We were seated on the patio but it looked like a parking lot. It took an hour to get our food. The service could have been faster.

   Great service, great drinks, great food, and great atmosphere. Very nice greeting from the host for our Anniversary. Our server helped us narrow down our choices for drinks and made recommendations for food to make our dining experience easier. Enjoyed the open concept of kitchen. One of my best dining experiences.

    I live out of town and have been coming to Juniper and Ivy for several years. I think if it as a terrific place and perfect for a special occasion. I was very disappointed this time. The food is still very good, and the wait staff is still friendly, but it was either way overbooked or some thing really shifted. It was so loud and we felt very very rushed. At least it was wildly expensive 😶

    Innovative small plates by a chef and kitchen with passion for their work. I recommend a counter seat where you can chat with a sous-chef and gain insight into the preparations.

    We came here for an early dinner on a Tuesday night and we were sat promptly since we had made a reservation. The restaurant has a lovely, upscale ambiance with an open kitchen concept. I like that you can see them prepare your food and place it on the counter as it's ready. We were immediately greeted by our waiter,Case, and he gave us a very thorough breakdown of the extensive menu. He suggested a couple of cocktails for us based off of our preferences. We both really enjoyed our cocktails, they weren't too sweet or overpowering like some of these high end cocktail places can be. He then asked us if we had any food allergies which I appreciate me because I actually do have some restrictions. We got the tostada, the potatoes, the yellowtail hand rolls, the hamachi crudo, the beets and cherries, and the steak. I am not a fan of potatoes so I didn't like them but my friend said they were great. I also don't eat meat but he enjoyed his steak. The hamachi had a "coconut snow" on top which was very unique. It was like cold coconut fluff and it really added some wonderful flavors to the dish. The tostada was absolutely amazing, the shell was the perfect amount of crunch and the fish melted in my mouth. The yellowtail hand rolls were probably my favorite part. They come wrapped in a leaf which looks strange but added some earthy flavor to the rolls. Overall I had a very lovely, first experience here and would love to come back again. There were tons of other things on the menu that caught my eye that I'd like to come back and try. And our waiter Case did an amazing job. He was getting sat left and right and was super busy but made sure we had everything that we needed and was very kind. Thank you!

    We had a 5:00 pm reservation as we were going to the Rady Shell. Staff didn't seem quite ready to start. Bar took 40 mins to get a drink. Waiter kept apologizing for the wait. Food was delicious and unique. Expensive treat! Grouper was amazing, snapper not so much. Tostado & Halibut bites & street squash delicious. Specialty drinks unique.

    I made reservations well in advance through Open Table but when arrive, we are put in parking lot tent despite my being in sport jacket and my colleague in a dress. When a plane flew overhead and we complained, we moved to high top in bar. On the positives, food and wait service outstanding and worthy of Michelin mention and award winning chef.

    My wife and I sat at the Chef's Counter and had one of the most amazing evenings. Sous Chef Chris was extremely generous with his time and never hesitated to answer our questions. Being able to watch a truly professional, high-level kitchen operate was so impressive! Our Server, Randy, was extremely knowledgeable and did a fantastic job of making our evening special. We will most certainly be returning. Thank you all for making my Birthday Dinner one to remember.

    Delicious food! Every dish came out on time, was cooked to perfection and beautifully presented to us. Sturgeon dip surprised us by its burst of flavour. Yum! Our 7-yo son(a picky eater) devoured pappardelle with rabbit confit. Whole grouper & steak entrees were amazing, generous portions with nicely selected sides and sauces. Edible flowers added a beautiful touch! Server was very attentive and informative.

    The food is beyond delicious and the service was amazing, but we were not well prepared for the feature entrees taking 55 minutes. Our client was a little impatient and I probably cared about it more because I was concerned about his satisfaction. He did say the chicken was worth the wait, but it felt like a very long 55 minutes of waiting. Our other guests had grouper, hangar steak and several of the small plates including cauliflower, beets + cherries and smashed peas with burrata which were all amazing. Several of us also had the chopped salad which is incredible. I can’t wait to go back when I can fully enjoy the service and an evening out and will be mindful of the timing for entrees.

    Ben was our waiter. He seemed to know details about how all the menu items were prepared. Also made some great wine pairing suggestions for each course. We sat at the chef's counter and got a great view of the staff at work - definitely a well oiled machine. They were all happy to visit with us when they had a minute to spare. We drive 45 minutes to get here but are frequent visitors and will return. Best items in our meal last night were halibut hand rolls wrapped in sesame leaf, smoked sturgeon dip, beets and cherries plate, and rabbit pappardell.

    We have had wonderful meals here in the past. Service was fairly attentive given a busy Mother’s Day evening. We were in the first seating and the kitchen was advising half the main courses required 45 minutes in advance. With our parking meter running out, it unfortunately took that long for the other entrees to arrive as well. Tonight was the first time I ever sent food back anywhere; my snapper was inedible as served - tough, dry, tasteless. My husband’s hangar steak was well cooked and seasoned. They did redo my fish but the meal was not enjoyable at that point. Not on our list for return as the previous delights in dining there are no longer in evidence.

    This was for Brandon's Birthday. We were sat down in the middle of the room. I noticed a booth that was available and was told my the female manager that it is reserved for a party of 5. If you want to eat here, you can sit here. After spending several hundred's, it was time for us to leave. That booth that I wanted to sit at, had a party of 3 in it, Parents and 1 kid. Needless to say, when I brought this up to the manager she looked at me as if I had a dinosaur costume on. Not a fan and will not step foot into this place at all.
