Service usually is stellar but today the communication with host/waitstaff was off- I asked that the bill not be presented whilst guest was present, but waiter chased after me for signature. Not good. The desserts was delicius. Tuna nicoise was terrible. Shrimp salad was good. Beet salad and burrata, good. It must just have been an issue with the one waiter. Everyone else there are veterans. Wierd. At $200+ for 3p for a very standard lunch, not worth it given this service mishap.

Took 50 minutes to get lunch served despite having reservations in an almost empty restaurant. My colleague did not have time to finish her meal before her next meeting and had to run. Food below average, but price high, so overall a 2 out of 5. Croque Monsieur, for instance, is supposed to be made with ham, gruyere and bechamel sauce. Mine was made with ham and cheese, and should be called a grilled ham and cheese sandwich and be priced as such. The lettuce was wilted and half brown. Not good. DC has too many good restaurants for this to work.

Crab cakes were splendid. Service (by Elizabeth ) was outstanding. Juniper deserves to be better known.

Pretty setting for our 1 PM lunch - surprised it was a brunch menu but there were still great choices for all 5 of us. Good, appropriately attentive service. Everything was tasty. But, $235 before tip with only soft drinks, coffee and bottled water?

Went for brunch. We were a table of 6. Service was sooooooooo slow. Food was just okay. Best part was the fresh squeezed orange juice.

This was a special brunch for my family and overall, the experience was lovely. The food was nice (the freshly squeezed orange juice was delicious, and the coffee, according to the coffee-drinkers in the family, said it was heavenly). It was really the ambiance and the service that made the experience top-notch.

The serving staff is the best in DC. The food is outstanding prepared by a professional chef.
Love the ambiance. Love the restaurant and outdoor courtyard. Didn't enjoy the service as our food took over an hour and only after we asked, did we receive it 20min later!

I made a reservation for brunch on Easter and confirmed twice. When we arrived (on time), our table wasn't ready so they quickly pushed 3 tables together to fit 6 of us in the HALLWAY outside of the restaurant. Are you kidding me??? When we asked about not eating in the hallway, they told us all the tables inside were reserved. It wasn't like we had walked in off the street. We did NOT feel valued. Once we got a waiter, things went relatively better, just slow and a couple items were never brought. Food was not bad. Definitely try to french toast.

Seating was slow even though I had a reservation. Service was incredibly slow. Understand it was a very busy time but we noticed a number of staff but a lack of those that could take orders, refresh drinks, clear plates. Our waiter only took our order, never checked back, and when we asked for our bill we had to follow up with multiple other people before we could get it. There were ants on the floor near our table.

My husband had been here for lunch and found it excellent (if a little pricey) so we gave it a shot for Valentine's day dinner. the food was wonderful as was the service. Everything was delightful and we are putting this on our list of restaurants!
