Our server suggested a glass of white wine - undrinkable to my taste. I asked for a martini, up, with olives. It was a very nice martini - until we got the bill. They charged $1 for each olive! Outrageous! Who does this? I will never go back and promised I'd share this story with as many people as possible. The decor is old, they've done nothing to update since the prior restaurant, Positano, left. If you're contemplating this place- walk past! Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else

I'll never not appreciate Julii!!! Located in this super cute standalone in Pike & Rose, it mixes…read moreFrench and Mediterranean cuisine! I usually grab takeout but am happy that my friend and me were able to dine in. Tip: reservations are highly suggested as the restaurant does fill up. I can't remember the name of the cocktails that we ordered, but they were both super cute and refreshing! For starters, we ordered Brussels sprouts, which were crispy and super flavorful. I ordered the Julii burger (medium well) and my friend ordered the steak frites. We shared our dishes, which was smart of us. The burger is always a 10/10 and the steak was good too! Our server was also very pleasant and helped us with our drink choices. The place was clean and the ambiance was perfect for a Tuesday evening meal.

A lunch deli, remaking deli classics we all love such as the turkey club, pastrami, quesadillas, and much more. They also have a case of tasty gluten free cupcakes, didn't realize this until after I purchased them. I enjoyed my pastrami on wheat with crisp hot and golden fries. The staff is nice and polite. Street parking wasn't bad for a Sunday afternoon. A nice place to get a window seat and break out your laptop to get a few things done!

As a gluten free gal pal, I love this place and truly wish I lived closer. It would hurt my wallet…read morebecause I'd go all the time, but actually the prices are pretty reasonable imo (check my photo) - especially for GF food in this area. Got a sandwich - bread was delicious and it was just fresh and clean (photo!). Service was great, seems like a family owned place. Ambiance was eccentric and a little quirky - part of its charm! Whenever I'm in the area, best believe I'll be back so I can slowly order every single GF item on this menu. If anything changes with my opinion, will update!

Highly, highly recommend this location. We're definitely planning to return.

Would skip the Sauce Blanc wine offered, didn't go with the meal. Make sure to get the cheesecake at the end of the meal. It was quite large but unlike a steakhouse cheesecake it was light and airy. Good dessert to split between 3 or 4 people! Service was prompt and consistent soon as we entered. Restaurant was moderately busy for a Monday evening. Lots of couples on dates and some business groups. Will be back for a nice dinner if in the area!

I want to love this place but it really doesn't love me back…read more PROS * Nice menu, some healthy food options * Coffee is above average for the area and better than Starbucks * Love the outdoor area, good service CONS * The emphasis on liquor kinda kills the coffee shop vibe. I get that's way more lucrative than coffee but I mean ... insert the name of the shop. * Food is higher priced for smaller portions and lately has not been good. I most recently ordered the Impossible Burger (which I've ordered before) and it was *not* good. * The big TV running what looks like a looped investor presentation, which is weird and distracting. I get that I can sit outside away from it but you can't do that year-round and when it's very hot or very cold you get an eye full of ... whatever that is.

My company and I have different likes so we disagreed on favorites but the good news is someone loved everything! We tried the short rib and salmon sliders. Short rib has sweet flavor. I would order both again. The friend pickles were what you'd think they would be but I was wanting a stronger pickle flavor. The crab beignets were a hit for both of us. The broiled potatoes had too much of a garlic flavor for me. Tasted good but honestly would've been better if they came as advertised, broiled potatoes. No garlic oil which clashed with the side of ketchup. Just crispy salted potatoes would've complimented the meal better. Everything was happy hour prices which I loved because it allowed me to try lots of things. It's worth the early seating and I'll definitely be back. Again, kudos to the awesome staff!

The service was so so considering the size of the restaurant. There seemed to be plenty of servers but we had to flag them down to order, get coffee refills and get the check. We liked the food. They had an interesting shukshuka that 2 people got and finished every bit. They also got a side of potato "hash" but they were really just diced roasted potatoes. Not worth the $6 price but worked for soaking up the shukshuka gravy. We had one beet salad that was very nice. We ordered the beignets at the end and they were just fair. We would still go back to try other things!

They give a pretty good amount of meat and the bread is nice and thick and buttered well. Id get both again but I'd get the sandwich without the beet I didn't like the raspberry meringue. It was too crunchy. There's a lot of seating and a decent amount of food options. Service is quick enough!
