The device was impeccable and the food was even better. We enjoyed having Father's Day brunch at Juliet's and will for certain be back again. Our waitress was awesome - I have a couple picky eaters and she was more than happy to accommodate their requests.
Went there for Sunday brunch with a friend. We both ordered the Italian benedict and the Cannolis to finish and both were outstanding. Our waitress was Lauren and she was very attentive and professional.
If you are Italian, don't even bother going. This restaurant is American Italian. The portions are huge and the authenticity is lacking. The waitress even compared Mexican flautas to a cannelloni, which was quite surprising. The only good thing on the menu were the side Brussels sprouts. Not recommended for those seeking genuine Italian cuisine.
Food was absolutely fantastic, and the complementary valet made the stress of having to find a parking space a thing of the past. The service and ambiance were both amazing. 10/10 would recommend.
Great food, great service, great atmosphere. We had a group of people in town for a conference with differing food preferences. Juliet was able to handle our large table and everyone in our party left happy and full. Our server (Nikki) was helpful and friendly. The bar manager made an excellent wine recommendation. All in all a fantastic evening!
We went for a graduation celebration dinner and unfortunately sat outside. It was a miserable experience, do not sit outside unless it's December or January here. Food was just ok. The server was attentive and ambiance was decent but nothing special and definitely not if you are outside.
Nikki was our server and she was great! We sat outside on the patio and like the vibe out there. Nikki was friendly and courteous and checked on us regularly. We had the lamb ragu and the chicken piccata. Both dishes were beautifully presented and very, very tasty!
We loved the patio setting and enjoyed the crowd. As noted the food was excellant. The waitress was extremely helpful with choice of wine and amount of seasoning to be used in my date's dinner.
We enjoyed a Happy Hour with Lucas as our server. He was attentive and provided excellent advice. While we dined inside the beautiful weather filled the patio area. Great place to eat.
Very overrated! Food is average at best. Pecans on salad were old and tasted off. The ambiance is questionable even though it has a big patio, there is a busy street right there and the street noise is loud. Dirty plates were not cleared when we finished eating and still not cleared even after the bill was brought to us.

Made a reservation but when we arrived we were told there were no tables except for one that we could have for 90 minutes. We decided to take it and only have apps and wine. Table in glass room was great. Our waiter told us he was training our server tonight. That was fine also We ordered three glasses of wine and a pizza. My wine did not come. I clearly ordered a glass of Chardonnay and we spoke about the fact it was not on the happy hour menu and I still wanted it. Both servers said they were not aware of me ordering it. Mistakes happen. It did come out so not really a big deal. Our pizza was okay, just not great. My friend ordered another drink and I ordered another glass of wine after asking how much longer we had the table. She said 45 minutes which was more than enough time to enjoy a glass of wine it never came out. I don't know what the issue was. There were two servers who were more concerned about freeing up the table than anything else. I never got my second glass and we left in time for their next reservation. Just a very disjointed evening.
We've dined here many times. Hopefully, tonight was an off night. The food was not up to usual standards. Pasta in pasta dishes was overcooked. We'll return. We love the outdoor patio. Hopefully, a one off.
Ambience was fantastic. The bread was delicious. Lukas was the best ever. The food was delicious and came out quickly. The drinks were perfect had to order the lemoncello martini twice. The complementary icecream Sunday was a great gesture for our anniversary celebration. Please come to Houston soon!
The ability to make a reservation was a plus! Greeted quickly and sat right away. Server was prompt and attentive, however he wasn't very warm and friendly. The meal was delicious and portion sizes were generous. I loved the art on the walls. We would have enjoyed a coffee and dessert but weren't offered any.
We had a party of 6 and got a table in an area where there was no noise and we were able to talk without screaming at each other. Didn't even hear music, which can be annoying. We talked until after the restaurant was closed and we were not rushed to leave. Our waiter was wonderful and the food is great.
