Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Juniper offers a "chill" vibe with "amazing pasta" and "top-notch" service. Frequent mentions of the "fabulous" Oscar and other staff elevate experiences. While some dishes, like the rigatoni, are "the best," others may not wow. The "romantic and chic" atmosphere makes it perfect for celebrations. Some find prices high, but the "incredible service" keeps guests returning.

    This is an amazing spot! Great everything. I’d write a longer one but I’m getting dragged around a target currently.. go try yourself! You won’t regret, especially on a date/special occasion with the misses.

    I came to Austin for a birthday trip and I was highly disappointed by everything except the service!

We’re truly sorry to hear that the experience didn’t meet your expectations. While we're glad to hear our service stood out, we regret that the rest of your visit left you disappointed. Your feedback is valuable, and we’re taking it to heart as we continually work to improve. If you find yourself back in Austin, we’d love the opportunity to make it up to you and deliver the full experience you were hoping for. Warm wishes, The Juniper Team

    Do not sleep on the pasta dishes, they’re absolutely incredible. The service is top notch too. The only real miss is they entree anti pasta sections. The prices are wildly high for very mediocre steaks which sucks. The staff is divine though. The space is adorable and the vibe is chill. Just skip the steaks.

    Celebrated my son’s graduation last night and the food and service were outstanding. Oscar, our server, went over and beyond and really elevated the experience. The oysters, salads, focaccia starters were delicious!!! Pastas were outstanding, and the deserts were delectable…especially the honey ice cream and alfogotto. What a special night! Thank you Oscar and team!

    Some suggestions. Did not have Bombay Sapphire…ran out. Server didn’t know the cocktail menu. Potato appetizer came well after everyone else’s…poor timing. It was basically a baked tater tot. Asked for pepper….no pepper grinder. Poor attention by the server…was not paying attention. Oysters were not served with any condiment’s. Atmosphere and door service was great.
