A wall of words from the guests, the press, and a decade in East Austin.
“For the last ten years, this subtly sophisticated spot has seemed an insider's dining room: comfortable, with counter seats facing the open kitchen and convivial tables flanked by soaring walls of concrete and glass.”
“A place where you can dress up a little, sip great Italian wines, and enjoy some of the best pasta in town.”
“Amazing — seriously all around a 5/5 experience. Everything was super simple and delicious and you can tell there's a lot of thought and time that goes into the preparation.”
“We dined here in March to celebrate my parents' 80th birthdays. My mother even told us it was the best meal she's ever had — very high praise — and the service was one of the highlights.”
“Soooo yum! Oscar was the best, he recommended so many yummy things. 10/10.”
“You leave the eclectic Austin neighborhood and step into another world — sleek, elegant, with a huge open kitchen. I highly recommend the tasting menu.”
“Delicious. Chic. High-touch. Juniper embodies a modern eatery to the 'T.'”
“Superb food. The most cohesive tasting menu I have had — the Texas Corn, Cacio e Pepe, and Gnocchi Sardi were exceptional.”
“Low key vibes, high touch service, and super delicious food.”
