How could anyone not think this place is a good place to eat? I've been in France and I've been to many of their little boutique-style cafes and Juliette really pulls it off right in the heart of Williamsburg. So you come in and are usually told there is a 20-40 minute wait, depending on your party size and time of day. Juliette is tiny and busy so this is expected, but hey, you can go up to the roof garden and have a drink while overlooking Bedford avenue and do some I-Spy hipster-themed games with your friends. The time flies by and you will be seated. You will next encounter the slightly uncomfortable-yet-charmingly-so cramped seating accommodations. The menu is small and limited (note - I haven't been here for dinner, only lunch or "brunch") but everything is extremely tasty. They make the best chicken sandwich ever, throwing in some guac and bacon and god knows what else. Also excellent is the veggie-tastic Tunisian Breakfast (which is basically a medly of peppers and chickpeas and other awesome stuff) and the salmon-topped eggs benedict. The chef here really knows how to manipulate ordinary foods and make them taste beyond awesome. Minus one star for "just ok" table service (sometimes you can be waiting for a while) and the fact that this is a pretty expensive place for local standards. Save it for a nice outing with friends you haven't seen in a few weeks. Also a great place to take people who are unfamiliar with Williamsburg--I work here but don't live here and I have met Manhattan-ite friends at Juliette for a great lunch and we all leave more than satisfied. Recommended! read more

Went here tonight with my love. We ate on the rooftop and loved it - great space with such atmosphere! I love all the little old metal tables and chairs. Our waiter was very helpful and came around often to refill our water glasses and make sure everything was okay. As for the food, I really loved my pasta dish. I had them take the ham out so it was vegetarian. It was perfect and light and very flavorful. My boyfriend had the cheeseburger and thought it was the best he'd had all summer, and he said it would be the last of the summer because he didn't think very many burgers would be able to top it. I'm a vegetarian so I had to take his word for it, but the cheese did look perfectly melted on there. Their fries are soooo yummy though! I can vouch for those. Looks like a great drinking spot. Will have to go again! read more

Going there for brunch was one of thee most unpleasing food experiences I have ever had. Nothing stood out, everything was blah and the quality of the ingredients used was mediocre to poor, sad to say. The portions were also not consistent, two of the dishes were the same, Eggs Benedict, except one was smoked salmon(horrible quality) and the other was with ham, the salad on the salmon plate was 1/5 of the size on the ham Bene plate... Maybe something wrong with the chefs who are plating the food? One out of the three dishes that we tried was good, the rest, were so BLAHHH. Not going here again. read more

This place is one the worst place i have visit in NYC. We sat at the terr ass for food, we where helped by a rude waitress, ,she was so useless, she couldn't even get me a glass for the water the she served to our table, i had go the the bar and ask for it. The food was mediocre i had a decent cheeseburger. The waitress didn't even say goodbye when we left the place. Stay away from this place it really really sucks, go 30 secunds xtra and try meatball shop instead. read more

I'd probably give it a 4 star if the service was better. It wasn't very crowded but still service was slow. The building itself was very adorable. I love all the live plants. The waitress didn't seem like she liked her job. She was almost whispering when talking to us. She seemed annoyed. She asked what we wanted to order before taking our drink order. When we asked about anything on the menu it seemed very unwelcoming. The busboys were more helpful and friendly than the actual servers. The food was just ok. I ordered the eggs Benedict and asked if I could have the eggs well done. She say fine. Wrote it down. When I got my meal the eggs were super runny. I can't have Foods that aren't fully cooked because I'm pregnant. We called the waitress and told her that the eggs weren't cooked all the way. She gave me a few options. She said I could order a side of eggs or have my whole meal remade. There was a third opinion that I didn't understand but she said something like it can't be done or something. Over all the whole experience here was just meh. read more

AMEX and CASH ONLY! Dinner service 3-stars Brunch service 4-stars This is a Godsend to the neighborhood. However, please note the following feedback; The staff is wonderful when they actually stop by the table. They seem to be fairly lean with the labor at this fine establishment. During brunch service, we have to flag down a server for refills on our water, juice, and coffee (every time). We continue to come back for the excellent brunch menu...they have the best egg dishes. At dinner, service was much better. The food was average. The Steak Au Poivre was average. The pork was a better choice. The atmosphere surpasses any restaurant in the neighborhood, including Dressler. The scoop: Great location, decent but overwhelmed staff, Best Place for Brunch and groups. read more

So I should preface this review with the fact that i'm not a brooklyn fan...but with a friend moving to williamsburg, we offered to join her in her apartment hunt, to try to give it yet another chance. During a break in the apartment viewings, we asked where was a good spot to stop in for a bloody, and i will say that juliette looked cute! Sadly that is where the positives stopped for me... The bloody (recommended over the strawberry sangria by the bartender) was literally so horrible i left it behind, and couldn't drink it. Also, there really wasn't much to look at from the roof, aside from the street, and buildings across the road. The place was packed, so the balcony (order at the bar, no service) was the only seating option. My friend wasn't too wild about her sangria either (although from trying it, it was far better than my bloody). I guess a plus would be that my boyfriend wasn't charged for his virgin coke. Oh, and then when we went to use the restroom prior to leaving, I had to wait for ETERNITY, and then when the girl before me left (one person rooms), i nearly passed out from the nastiness and stench she left in there (i'll refrain from getting more graphic than that, although i could certainly elaborate). Even if i lived in BK, I don't think i'd be back, unless it were for dinner, and no cocktails...and i brought some hard core febreeze in my bag for any bathroom uses. read more

Good: It's a beautiful place. We sat in their little indoor garden nook, which was fanciful and delightful. Loved it. The service was pretty quick and he food was pretty tasty. No line to sit down, which I suspect gets them a lot of fed-up Egg castoffs. Not as good: A little pricey for what it was. If the food was outstanding, I'd love it. And it was good, but I paid a little too much money for my apple pancake, which was essentially a slightly-thicker crepe with apple baked in. And I do stress pancake, not pancakes. Just one. Not quite the filling brunch I expected. However, their burger looked AMAZING and I don't even eat red meat. Maybe if I had something that substantial this would be must-go-to place for me. read more

Good food, nice atmosphere and people Service was a little slow, I guess because Is always pack, but good was ok x being a Friday night read more

I came here simply because they had Steak Tartar on the menu. It did not disappoint, best I've ever had. Even beat out Markts! I'm taking off one star as for some odd reason the beautiful rooftop dining area had a different menu with no steak tartar! Why??? read more

Delicious food. I had the endive salad and buckwheat crepe. Great service. Our waiter was very attentive, but not intrusive. Our water glasses were always full. Dirty bathrooms. read more

This frenchy spot is very quaint and adorable. Great for happy hour or a date. Shishito peppers are yummy and fresh. Hangar steak was cooked as requested. Wait staff is super attentive and friendly. Skip the fried calamari-it's a bit too fried. The indoor garden eating area is adorbs. Worth a try! read more

Five stars for: - Amazing steak tartare, quail, mushroom flan, wine, pear creme brulee - Minus one star for only taking AmEx and cash - Plus a billion stars for being my engagement-night dinner. Beyond memorable. read more

**UPDATE** Upon emailing the management to complain, i recieved an email apologizing and offering me and a guest a complimentary brunch. Everything was great this time, and I appreciate M'ykel for setting it up for us. ALL restaurants should have this reaction to a negative review. **** I don't get it. WHAT is with the horrible wait service in Williamsburg?! no matter how polite I am, I am constantly met with the rudest douchebags in this hoods restaurants. We went for brunch. We ordered 3 coffees; 2 iced, 1 hot. To ensure he remembered, the guy read it back to us, and we confirmed and thanked him. Then, coffee comes, no iced coffee for me. We let him know, and he snaps back at us, "Well I only heard you ask for 1". Yeah, that's why you wrote it down. Is it possible you are so dumb that you even misread your own handwriting? I'm sure you are some kind of aspiring actor anyway, doesn't your "career" rely upon you remembering some lines? Basically, after we had the nerve to let him know he forgot one of our coffees, he was pretty much absent from our table. I finally got my iced coffee 10 minutes later, from a different waiter, after observing OUR waiter make drinks for many other tables and ignore ours. Other than the service (which to me is probably the most important thing about a restaurant), the food was eh. I got a $14 grilled cheese of some sort with one slice of ham on it, a crappy salad and some yummy potatoes in scallions (the only really good thing). So, won't be coming back. read more

Came here to visit a friend and I was very happy with everything. Food was delicious. The grilled shrimp and gnocchi are a must try. Our server was also freakin awesome. Very attentive and had a answer to every question about the menu. Will be coming back asap read more

The lamb sliders were amazing here! They have happy hour & the patio on the roof is absolutely stunning. Would definitely return.

I love going to Juliette for brunch. I've tried several items off their regular menu and try their specials a often as possible. I've never been disappointed. The staff is knowledge and polite. The place is always packed for brunch so I love to have drinks on the rooftop while I wait for a table. read more

Billyburg has a ton of great places for grub and chatter. When you hop off the L train, at times, the activity and street culture can be dizzying. Just a few steps away from Bedford Ave. stop awaits Juliette's comfortable location. Juliette's has great ambience with French decor and mood lighting. In one of the rooms, on a sunny day, light pours in on and you and warns you as you enjoy a blood orange mimosa. The menu is pretty creative enough and infused to offer more than a handful of options but not too overwhelming that you have to ponder and fantasize about all of the delectable treats. I have eaten at this location four or five times, and each time, I have felt satisfied. For brunch or lunch, the roasted stuffed french toast with bananas, tunisian breakfast and the salmon benedict are all tasty delights. At times the kitchen service is slow, but the waitstaff are typically amiable enough that your meal is still enjoyable. A big plus: on warm days and mild evenings, they offer a rooftop bar experience. Sitting on the roof for a friendly lunch is so quaint! You sit at a vintage table, sipping your cocktail or iced tea and wonder about the eclectic strangers below! This place is worth coming to because it doesn't give off the same pretense as some of its neighbors. :) read more

My friend and I went on a Sunday afternoon to grab a bite. I know I will never go back despite the atmosphere is great and the roof is such a nice option for warm days in New York. The main reason why I will not consider going back is the service, and the attitude. None of the servers/hosts smiled or looked eager to help the customers. When they were asked a question, their responses were as if they were doing something extra by answering it. I had to wait for the check to come to the table for around 7 minutes, and more for the waiter to pick it up. Once we were done with our food, we almost didn't exist for the waiting staff. On a hot day, our water, which warmed up pretty fast in the bottle, was never renewed, and nobody asked how we were doing while eating. About the food. I had the burger and there was nothing special about it except it was still red inside although I wanted it well-done. The fries were salty. My friend didn't like the veggie burger he had. He said it was pretty greasy. read more

I've always had mixed feelings about this place but the location, ambiance and roof pushed it over the edge and I returned a number of times. That might not happen again after last night. My partner and I showed up at about 9:30 for a light dinner. We started at the bar, where the 'tender asked my bf if he wanted a glass with the bottle of stout he ordered. Umm, yes. Have you ever sold a beer before? After settling up our bar bill-$19 for a beer and a glass of wine we asked for a table. We were not offered the option of sitting upstairs. The hostess pointed and said "there or there". OK, whatever. I figured the upstairs was closed as it had been raining on-and-off, but later started see hordes and hordes of post-Pool Partiers coming down from up there. Major offense: We were never offered bread. This may not seem like much, but at a french restaurant you get bread. I know Juliette sometimes runs out of bread, because I've been at the cheese store when they've bought every baguette in the place around 8 p.m. But, we got no bread and no apology for not having bread. We even based our menu choices (partially) on sharing bread to dip into the broth (the food, which we got from the specials menu was meh-the food here is usually better). We also wanted more wine, but despite being one of only TWO tables in the downstairs area it took forever to get a server's attention. Also, $7 for a Stella is QUITE the mark-up. read more

This is my 3rd visit , I like the atmosphere and vibes at this place. Everytime I have french onion soup and loved it not sure because it's a french place or really it's good Great burger and friendly staff. Can't wait to come back for roof gardens since is winter now. read more

We always have a good time and good food when going to Juliette. We love the rooftop! Mimosas and a nice brunch ;) Keep up the good work and see you again soon! ;) read more

This is such a cool place...but this little passive aggressive b! of a server that we had, just ruined our whole experience. She was so combative from the beginning. I asked her if she could ask the kitchen to not add cheese to my dish, and she told me she would have to check with the them first. Excuse me!!!? The cheese is not already cooked in the meal is it? .... Finally she came by our table and we ordered a couple of drinks. And we were in the sun so I asked if we could move to a shaded area and she was like "it's fine, just wait until they clean the table"...we look back 30 seconds later and there's people sitting at the table. When I went to ask about it she said: well we don't let people change tables anyway. To make matters worse, she comes over to our table. I was like we're cancelling our drinks. Please bring us the check, she was like oh "don't talk to me like that." Chick!! You are pushing it. She sent the manager over to m bring and collect the signed checks and I told him what happened. This is great place, there's no need to have this girl ruin it for you guys. I can imagine we are not the first people she's done this too and we won't be the last. For her: passive aggressiveness doesn't get you anywhere in life. read more

Lovely brunch spot in Williamsburg. The rooftop is just perfect to have lunch on a sunny day. Went there on a Monday and the place was full, quick service & great food. Tuna tartare was tasting really good and same for the Eggs "forestière". If you are hungry I suggest you to have the Cobb salad. The girl next to us order it and it was looking a bomb! read more

Went here for brunch and had a wonderful time on the roof garden. If there is a wait for roof seating, it's definitely worth it. Ordered the omelette of the day, which was tasty, and my friend and I split a $36 bottle of sauvignon blanc. We came at the end of brunch, so it was not even that crowed. The portions were not that large, but still, considering the roof garden and inexpensive wine options, this place gets my stamp of approval. read more

Holy yum. I went here the other day with my friend, finally, and it was a delight! The atmosphere is amazing - we sat in the area under the skylight, which is just lovely. I felt like I was back at a fabulous cafe in Paris. Yay! I got the chicken with grits, which was to DIE for. I could eat that for the rest of my life and be totally fulfilled. We shared the buttermilk crepes with summer berries for dessert. Yum, yum, yummy yum. I can't wait to get back there.... and sit on the roof! read more

Noticed the roof deck on this restaurant while walking through willyB on a sunday afternoon. Very cute, medium sized, seemed to be full of people having fun, with some, but not complete privacy from the street (its fun to people watch when you're a bit higher up!) Got upstairs and noticed that there is a different menu if you want to dine on the roof deck, a little disappointing because the terrace menu didn't have the stuff i wanted to try. They ran out of the mussels, which everyone seemed to really enjoy. I had the steak, my date had a burger, the fries were yummy, but the food was definitely not the best. Minus 1 star because the only CC they take is amex. Minus another star because the food isnt really all that fantastic and the service was extremely slow due to the humongous crowd during the evening. Plus 1 star for the nice roof deck that doesnt make you feel like you're stuck in an open air box with an over-designed 7 foot fence (which completely ruins a roof deck experience). Will definitely come back for the atmosphere. read more

Juliette is a gorgeous restaurant with great drinks and an amazing roof. I come here with my friends early on the weekend to get a night rolling but I stopped coming here for full-on meals after having too many bad experiences. The staff usually seem overwhelmed, the tables are often too small, the food may not arrive as you ordered (my medium rare burger was an overdone hockey puck) and may not even be good. Stick to the drinks, enjoy the roof and eat elsewhere. read more

Had the steak tartar, octopus, and fried artichcoke kale salad. Great ambiance, very romantic, i was not with my bf.. but its a nice place to go on a date. Steak tartar was great!!!! octopus was ok.. the articoke was really good. I ordered a pimms cup for my cocktail.. not so good.. But would go back if i was in the hood!! read more

This place hosts brunch for Williamsburg's Royals. Amongst the display of Hipster Pageantry seen every Sunday, you'll find the BEST eggs Benedict dish I've ever had. Amazing French toast and a Paris Street style hot dog that I'll stick my neck out for Ala' Marie Antoinette. They've often featured a Butternut Squash soup on the menu that's terribly rich and creamy, in a terribly good way. The atmosphere inside is very much like any cafe you'd find in Paris, complete with red table clothes and chandeliers and with a beautiful atrium at it's center in which communal tables surrounded by lush plants can be found. My one issue is that while they make their mimosas and bloody Marys very strong, their prices are a bit tough on the pockets of a commoner like myself-- meaning I'll have to pawn the silverware if I'm planning to get a good Sunday-afternoon-buzz the next time I come back. Overall though, it's completely delightful. read more

We arrived as a party of 5 at 1:30pm on a Sunday and were provided a wait time of 45min. We waited patiently outside and enjoyed the nice weather. Come 2:15pm, we went in to check if we would be seated shortly. We were told we had to wait ANOTHER 30-45min. Really?! Horrible wait time and estimation skills. As it was a friend's bday and she wanted to eat here, we decided to stay and wait it out. We were seated sometime around 3:40ish. Waiter took our order and the food arrived quickly. We ordered a side of polenta and when the waiter bought out the dishes, he called the side cheese grits. We asked if it was polenta or grits, and he confirmed it was grits. We kindly let him know that we had ordered polenta and none of us had ordered grits. 10min later, he bought out that very exact dish and confirmed it was polenta. By then, it was cold, solidified, and very unappetizing. I ordered the Eggs Forestiere with a side of Sauage. While tasteful, I wouldn't say it's better than any other brunch option out there. Certainly not worth the wait, IMO. Took awhile to get our bill, but on a plus note they don't rush you out of the restaurant. It's a cute scene but the poor wait time estimation and order confusion left a bad impression. read more

Juliette's is a great restaurant for dates or groups. It's beautifully decorated inside and there's a rooftop as well. The staff is attentive and the food is great. I've had the French onion soup, lamb burger, salmon tartare, mussels, and lobster roll. All were phenomenal except the lobster roll which I found to be just good in comparison (definitely not complaining!). It is fairly reasonably priced for the quality of the food and the consistently great experience you'll have at Juliette's. One of my favorite restaurants in this part of town. read more

Really liked this place. Make sure you get there for there FULL menu options not during transition. Service was good. Food came fast and was GREAT. FULL BAR! Accepts CARD! Right next to Egg, so if Egg is packed, come here! Not the same fare, but you can always come back to Egg. I like the decorations, ambiance. DEF want to go back again...and they have a rooftop for warmer months...very good. read more

Very cute establishment in Williamsburg. Really roomy with an indoor dining area, an indoor garden esque dining area and then the upstairs roof dining experience. I had the Crispy Duck Confit as my main and the Fresh Start as my cocktail choice. The eggs and duck were cooked perfectly in my dish, yolk was runny and the duck fell right off the bone. Servers were knowledgable and attentive. Would definitely return again! :) read more

BANGIN! As a a caveat, I work at a breakfast place. I don't fuck up people's eggs, ever, because it is a crime. There is nothing worse than making a request (annoying as it for wait and cook staff) and having it unfulfilled. They will laugh at you and say terrible things at you, literally hurl curses into the poached eggs, gluten-free toast, or egg-white-only omelettes, but at the end of the day, it will be exactly as you requested or we can all hang our hats in shame. So I went for the Eggs Bene. Never been fond of canadian ham (I go for bacon), and they had it with prosciutto, a far more glamorous version of canadian ham - truly, the king of hams. They were real easy. French easy. The yolks spilled gloriously everywhere, so I could dip every bite in sweet fatty runny egg yolk. Thank god. Drinks looked real good, but I couldn't get drunk that day, not that early. European style service, which I enjoy, but I could see that ruining some peoples day because its very hands off - they let us bring coffees in from outside and virtually ignored us when we weren't ordering or they weren't serving. Personally, a big fan. I think the guy may have had an accent. Decor and atmosphere is unbeatable - "the greenhouse effect is really nice". They have an excessive number of plants. Very enjoyable place to spend an excessive amount of time, and if it wasn't busy, I'm sure they wouldn't care to bother you. Not cheap, but hey, life's short; you could blow your wad on worse things. read more

Juliette's is a 'meh' level Brunch spot fronting like it's a French bistro. The food was decent, but nothing unique or outstanding. My burger definitely hit the spot (since I was sporting a hangover) but I would have prefered Five Guys which would have been cheaper and far more satisfying. Additionally, like most hipster establishments, they seriously lacked in the service department. Our waiter was an Actor-Wannabe type who was dressed like he was about to go Sailing in the Cape, with an attitude to match. He was rude and unattentive. We wouldn't have tipped if it hadn't been tacked on for our party of 6. All in all it was a disappointing experience. Me and Laura M will not be returning. read more

Oh Juliette, you are my go-to brunch spot to impress some friends or family in town. With so many tables, you're usually good for a short wait time - but I'm willing to wait a little longer to sit in the beautifully green, lush and sunlit garden room. I sat on the deck upstairs for dinner once and that was really wonderful as well. The food isn't super special and it costs a bit more than I usually want to spend on eggs - but it still checks my boxes for a solid brunch every once in a while. The French do really know how to cook eggs better than most. Didn't love their coffee, but I think there were free refills so that makes up for it. read more

Came here for brunch with a friend... Food: I had a Bloody Caesar and a blood orange mimosa.. Shared the tuna tartar and had a brunch menu option with garlic toast over easy eggs kale and mushrooms - everything I tried was great and they have a menu with something for everyone Service: wasn't awful but wasn't great, the only real reason I give them 4 and not 5 stars.. I would've liked a drink refill much sooner... Waitstaff was not too attentive Ambience: multiple rooms for seating, some outdoor seating , not too loud but busy enough, tables were a little too close together read more

Beautiful restaurant, gorgeous ambiance, semi reasonable prices, and something for everyone on the menu. Dropped in with a friend and immediately fell in love with the decor. The restaurant is very big so I expect it could work well for a large group: putting this on my bday list! We sat in the solarium looking area which was green and well lit. Both enjoyed the generous pours of the house red. I thought for $26 they could have given more than 3 scallops. I mean what's the deal with scallops, New York. It's not like I'm ordering a platter of black truffles here. It was delicious and well balanced but the portion size was a bit skimpy. My friend loved his chicken sandwich which was a huge portion with a ton of fries. Bread bowl was generous and very yummy served with butter. I was craving a coffee post dinner and noticed it was a little on the tepid side. Huge pet peeve of mine, but then again it was a Thursday night. Some have complained about service but we had no complaints. read more
