An absolute 10/10 experience. The flavor profiles here are top-tier—the pork ribs and mussels are must-tries. I loved the energy of the chef's counter with Chef Evelyn, and the service was seamless, starting with a warm welcome from Chef Henry at the door. Make sure to save room for the goat cheesecake; it's outstanding. June is officially my top pick in Houston for high-quality food, taste, and a great vibe.

An outstanding experience from start to finish. Every dish felt thoughtful, balanced, and intentional. Chefs Evelyn and Henry have created something truly special in Houston that stands out among the city's best. Would absolutely recommend.

We celebrated my birthday at Jun. there were 5 of us and they sat us at a cute corner booth/table. It was a great spot. We weren't aware they didn't have their liquor license so that is why I marked a point off. It would have been 5 stars, but we did miss the that. They had delicious food. We ordered soooo much and the flavors were so good. We'll be back for sure

We had an absolutely beautiful meal at Jun and can't wait to return. The food, service, and space were all gorgeous. The attention to detail was noticed throughout the evening. We especially recommend the aguachile, the carrots with the El Salvadorian cheese, and the green curry.

Sat at the bar as we didn't have reservations. The mussels were outstanding and we were glad to have some rice to get every drop of the amazing broth. New tandoori spiced lamb belly with salted yogurt is rich and savory. The charred cabbage is not cooked and the dish acts like a Cesar salad, with croutons and white anchovies. And we had to have the amazing pork ribs with another serving of rice to sop up the sauce. The scoop of the day, blackberry-yuzu, temped us even though we were quite full-delectable! We'll be back soon to try other new items on the menu.

This is one of the best meals I have ever had in Houston! I cannot recommend it enough. They had unique and one-of-a-kind takes on dishes. I loved literally every bite of food we had!

Our server was Todd. He was the best server I’ve ever had. If you go into Jun you should ask for Todd. He had an immense knowledge of everything on the menu, took care of all of our needs, and gave us the best dinner experience.

I cannot recommend this place enough!!!

Food - given the option of tasting menu vs a la carte. Ordered a la carte.
Gulf shrimp ceviche 5/5 is by far the favorite amongst all the items. The blend with the avocado with a slight lime juice was great.
Second favorite green curry 4.5/5 - consist of green beans (in between crispy and fully cooked), mushroom, potatoes cooked to softness drenched in a good curry sauce! (Got a side of rice to pair with it)
Third favorite grilled red fish 4/5 - very solid, the more you eat the better it got. Beware of the cantaloupe or honey dew that comes with it (it's vinegar ish pickled flavored, caught me by surprise!)
Corn 3/5 - flavor was on point but the type of corn or batch of corn used could be better (could be plumper, sweeter types of corn)
Brisket 3/5 - the first few bites were amazing paired with peanut ish curry. However, after a few bites digging into the chunk of the meat- it is pretty tough not as tender anymore so basically wasted 90% of the chunk. Would likely not order this again.
Dessert - 5/5 got the goat cheesecake with ginger lychee sorbet- the pairing of rich goat cheese and the light ginger lychee sorbet with the additional toppings including berries jam and crispy sugar it blended super well

Service - super friendly staff, attentive, efficient

Ambiance - had counter seating facing the kitchen giving a view inside the kitchen and I loved this seating!

Super chill experience at the bar with Todd and Adrian. Had cocktails and then the tasting menu without the wine pairing. I was pleasantly surprised by the inventive and flavorful cocktails since they don't have a proper liquor license yet. They were so artful and tasty I hardly missed my usual neat whiskey. Standouts for me were the carrots with salsa macha and cheese/ the shrimp Aguachile. By the time I got to dessert I was almost too full to appreciate the yucca doughnut with piloncillo syrup but it was delightful all the same. Highly recommend if you like small plates and a very modern/chill atmosphere. Thanks guys.

Jun Restaurant exceeded expectations. The staff was attentive and welcoming, the food was absolutely delicious with bold, well-crafted flavors, and the cocktails were perfectly mixed and unique. A great spot for both dinner and drinks—highly recommend.

I recently dined at Jūn and had a mixed experience.

On the positive side, the service was genuinely warm and friendly. Every staff member we interacted with was polite, attentive, and welcoming. The ambiance is lovely, clean, eclectic, and thoughtfully designed. I’d absolutely give the front-of-house and cleanliness a solid five stars.

Where things fell apart was the kitchen timing and pacing.

We requested that our food come out together, but it didn’t. I ordered the chicken and potatoes, and my husband ordered the ribs and corn. The corn came out first, followed by my chicken, while the rest of the dishes lagged far behind. I was initially told the potatoes would be out in about 9 minutes, but closer to 20 minutes passed with no update. A manager later checked in, and after I asked again about the missing dishes, I was told 15 more minutes though they did arrive about 10 minutes after that.

As for the food itself, the flavors were okay, but not especially memorable. The chicken tasted heavily brined, slightly swollen and on the salty side and overall it felt like the kitchen may be trying a little too hard instead of letting the ingredients shine.

I recently moved near the restaurant and truly want to support local businesses in my neighborhood. Jūn has a lot going for it in terms of atmosphere and service, and I hope the kitchen timing and execution find better consistency moving forward, because the foundation is definitely there.
