    Great place, incredible food, awesome service and amazing cocktails! The only thing my husband and I have issue with is the lighting. We had to use our phones to read the menu.

    This was our second visit to JUN, and it was even better than the first time. Each dish was excellent. The brisket was comparatively lackluster compared to the rest of the dishes but the whole branzino, mussels, and sausage were incredible. Will go back again and again.

    Jun was a great experience! The food was great, super complex in flavors and textures in every dish, which is something I love! The restaurant itself was very beautiful! Our servers were fine, nothing to to write home about, but the rest of the staff such as the food runners, etc. were very sweet and provided amazing service! I would definitely recommend this place and sit at the counter with the view of the kitchen if you can!!

    Outstanding meal. Tasting menu offered a diverse set of dishes with varying flavors complimented perfectly by the wine pairings. Served went above and beyond to ensure a seamless service and was very attentive throughout, and answered any questions we had about cooking processes, flavor combinations, and techniques used to curate the meal. 10/10 would recommend to anybody seeking an elevated dining experience.

    We had a great meal. Food was uniquely prepared and with great taste. There were lags in bringing out the food. One of our side dishes was cold but overall everything was good.

    Great food. Had the tasting menu with wine pairing. I really hate curry. Had the brisket with curry. Haven’t changed my mind. But, wow! Everything else was amazing. The wines were great. Will be back soon.
