   We did the 9-course tasting menu for our anniversary and it was delightful. My only complaint would be that even though each dish was small, it was a ton of food in aggregate! That's not really a complaint, just a joke. Would love to come back and check out their regular menu on a less special occassion.

   We went to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary and it was a perfect evening. We were greeted with a glass of Prosecco and we were so grateful! We loved the Prix Fixe menu because we got to try so many things. The portions were perfect-----and the stand out favorites were the Cacio e Pepe and the Halibut. Not a bad bite all evening though. Excellent cocktail and wine selection too. I am booking a birthday dinner for a friend there because this night was so perfect. The service was OUTSTANDING too----which is hard to achieve these days. Bravo Juniper.

   Amazing five course meal! We’re vegetarian and Juniper had a lot of tasty and creative veg dishes. Corn mezzaluna was our personal fav!

   Skyla and Chad were our servers and they made sure we had a wonderful experience. Chad was training and did an excellent job remembering all the details of the complex dishes, and both of them were great to talk to and made us feel right at home. Truly one of the best service experiences I’ve had! Aside from the service, the food and ambiance was incredible. We did the Prix Fixe option and were not disappointed! Our favorites were probably the steak, Cacio e Pepe, and zeppole for dessert. The ribeye steak was better than anything either of us had ever had at a steak house. The only thing I didn’t enjoy was the Little Lettuce, but that’s just due to personal preference. For drinks we got the Paloma, Forbidden Fruit, and Amalfi Coast Spritz. The Paloma was great, the Forbidden Fruit was not our favorite, and I’d say it’s best to stick with a traditional aperol spritz over the Amalfi Coast Spritz. Overall a great experience and we will definitely be back for our next special occasion!

    We came here to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday and were honestly really disappointed. The staff was nice but seemed very flustered which was confusing since there are maybe 12 tables in the whole place. They printed custom menus to wish him HBD and sent us home with a gift which was very cool/ appreciated. However, the food was not that good and definitely not worth what we paid. The crispy potatoes, salad and pasta were fine, nothing outstanding imo. My steak was incredibly dry even though it wasn’t over cooked - which tells me the meat was probably old- and my bf’s halibut was over cooked and very fishy. Dessert was probably the best part of the whole meal. The cocktails we ordered were also very bad. My bf had to send his back and I noticed the table next to us did the same. Mine was barely drinkable and I ended up just leaving it. This was our first time here and we won’t be back.

    Best dining experience in Austin! Let’s face it, Austin is filled with incredible restaurants. Deciding between Carnitas stand A and smoked brisket B isn’t a difficult choice. Both are great, and you simply can’t go wrong. But, when trying to pick a place for a ‘special’ dinner, with above normal service, and a bit of elegance, the choices slim down considerably. Yes, there are the steakhouses and seafood ‘luxury’ chains, but again, when you want something special, the choices are even slimmer. Until Juniper. Wow, wow, wow! When an 8 course tasting menu, with comparable wine pairings is calling your name, look no further. I’ve had so many experiences in other cities, but had yet to have such an experience in my home city. Until last night. My wife and I were greeted at the door, seated immediately, provided one of the best negroni’s we had ever had, and then served throughout the evening by knowledgeable, friendly and entertaining staff. Our favorites were Daniela and Marquita - truly joyous human beings and simply took our night to the next level. The food? Perfectly prepared and seasoned. My favorites were the beef tartar, and the duck. The wines, although not 5 star, were certainly appropriate for the food, and very tasty. We were in Juniper for 2.5+ hours, and the time simply flew by. It was the kind of experience I’ve missed for years, and feel so lucky to have found it in my old hometown. Cheers to the best dining experience in years.

    Fantastic experience. Service was top notch. While the place was packed and loud the service makes you feel as if you are the only people dining there. Food was the summer tasting menu with a wine pairing. Highly recommend trying this out. I’ve done a winter tasting and a summer tasting. I prefer the winter but really enjoyed the summer paring. Overall 5 star experience.

    From start to finish everything was incredible. Service was outstanding, and the food was to die for. When even the bread is making you say it’s the best you’ve had you know everything else is going to be incredible. It was my birthday and they even sent me home with a small birthday gift and menu signed by the staff, and presented the dessert with a candle on the side. Very personal touches. The manager was checking in guests and was incredibly friendly as well. Everything was just fantastic. 5 stars is not enough.

    Dishes are prepared with meticulous attention both visually and taste-wise. The flavors keep your taste buds busy, but not overwhelmed. The serveuse did describe in great detail each dish, which is a good sign. Our bottle of Valpolicella was one of the best red wines we have tasted. Being seated at the counter, opened to the kitchen, the noise level was a bit disturbing. We recommend Juniper to any foodie looking for an outstanding meal.

    The food was amazing as well as our server but when asked if the AC was out after seeing the fans and 85 degree thermostat, I was told this is how it always feels in there due to the building circulation. After sitting through the first course, I realized there was no way this was in fact true with how much we were sweating. I get that no one wants to lose money on a holiday weekend, but lying about the AC conditions, during a summer in Texas, is not the way to have customers coming back. I loved the food but sadly will not be back due to their so called "circulation" problems.

    While the food was good, their a/c was broken and they had fans placed all around the restaurant. It's July in Texas. If we had known we would have rescheduled. Eating hot food while sweating wasn't a great birthday experience for my husband. It would have been nice if the restaurant informed us of the situation prior to arrival.

    Italian fusion. Highly overrated and overpriced. If you're looking for traditional Italian, go to Red Ash. If you're looking to purchase 2 slices of eggplant smothered in a tomato chutney so sweet that it leaves you wondering whether they intended this dish to be a dessert, go to Juniper.
