    Bread pudding
    Melissa M.

    The ambiance is perfect for casual upscale dining with upstairs and outdoor dining. I didn't care for the shrimp taco, the shrimp toast was good, the Brussel sprouts were the best I've had, and the bread pudding dessert mmmmgood!!!!

    Shrimp Toast.
    Yumi H.

    A local favorite. The consistency of Juniors has been phenomenal. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. Our waitress was attentive and made sure to check-in on our table regularly after she gave some recs for the table to ease our indecisiveness. Shrimp toast was crispy and had a nutty aroma from the toasted sesame seeds coating. I would eat this app first due to it becoming soggy from sitting on a sauce bed during the first 5 minutes of delivery. For the entrees, fried shrimp tacos is a go-to, bolognese was good, but the airline chicken--*insert pinching emoji.* It was seasoned, tender, and juicy! Everything on that plate made my eyes roll back. Lastly, the bread pudding..... just order it. Loved the dimly lit romantic ambiance. It's perfect for date night and cozy get-togethers.

    I love Junior's! Its a neighborhood spot I visit when I dont want to go far but a great meal. They take reservations but I usually walk in and if not tables are available there has always been a spot at the bar. On my last visit I had the salmon crispy rice and I would never think to get this outside a Japanese restaurant but im glad did because it was delicious! We also had the calamari which was standard fried calamari but the romesco dipping sauce took it a notch. For my entree I got the group sandwich and fries which was also really good. Never had dessert here because Im always too full but there is attached ice cream shop which I believe is seasonal but seems to be popular when open. They also make great drinks, the cocktail menu seems to change with the season but they're always good!

    Tuna Poke.

    Junior's on Harrison was a great casual spot! The smash burger was spot-on crispy edges, juicy patty, and that spicy mayo added the perfect kick. The tuna bowl felt super fresh and light, though the portion is definitely small. The crowd was bright and open, nice vibe all around, and the bar impressed with a solid drink selection. Would happily return

    This place seems like an upscale restaurant which the menu prices certainly make it seem more upscale. The service is the best thing about this place as they do have attentive servers. The food choices on the menu though just don't really excite me here. Out of the items I sampled on my visits here I've found that their portion sizes run small and just don't really fill me up enough to make a meal out of them. Everything I've tried here has been decently OK but nothing has been really good or flavorful. The food here is a bit too contemporary American for me and I would like a bit more traditional New Orleans style food. So overall this is an alright spot to have a snack and then I will need something else to eat not long after.

    Health is WEALTH! Family of four feast after local shopping was great. The staff were attentive and somewhat quick. The bartender knows how to make good drinks. There's a lot of great choices at reasonable prices. They do not do military discounts but on Veterans Day it's 10% (I didn't get pictures of everything). Loved the VIBES!!!

    We order a lot of corporate catering. These guys knocked it out of the park. The food, the service, the presentation and their execution exceeded all of our expectations.

    I visited about 2 months ago, and while my experience wasn't terrible, it wasn't the most pleasurable toward the end of my dining experience. I left a review, and not only did the general manager reach out, but the owner, Nick, also contacted me. I received an email explaining the misunderstanding and outlining the steps they took to ensure it wouldn't happen again with future customers. To make up for the previous visit, I was offered a complimentary drink and a gift card, which was much appreciated. This time around, everything was PERFECT! I even had the same waitress, and we had a brief chat about my last visit, she apologized for the misunderstanding, which really showed their commitment to customer satisfaction. This is the epitome of customer satisfaction, accountability, and hospitality. I'll definitely be back and highly encourage you to try Junior's if you haven't already!

    Definitely a hidden gem. Nice vibes, calm atmosphere, great food, great drinks, great service. Can't beat it. Shout out to my last bartender, Eddie, who put me on to fee foam instead of hassling with egg whites!

    Brussels Sprouts.
    Rachel D.

    Gorgeous restaurant with great service. The hot honey buns were just okay. The steam buns were super soggy and fell apart, but the chicken was crispy and good. The Brussels were amazing. loved the sauce on them. Soup du jour was like a shrimp and corn bisque and was very good.

    Went for a birthday dinner on a Friday night. It's a perfect spot for a girl dinner. Very cute and bright. Our server was amazing! I wish I could remember her name. She made some great recommendations and was very sweet! The food was delicious. It's a great Seafood Friday spot if you're looking for something a little different. The stand outs for me were the Shrimp Bao buns which were on special and the all vodka pasta that I subbed our grilled shrimp instead of sausage. Oh and those cheese curds are a must order!

    Hmmmm....."Be nice, Mickey"..... This place is a cute spot to have a quick lunch after visiting the children's museum and awaiting the 2pm check in to your air b and b 3 miles up the road..... And that, my friends, is exactly what I did!! Very open, clean, roomy with trendy decor. The waitstaff did their jobs well, but it just might've been an off day for the kitchen.... The cheese curds had so much potential....i'm a big time cheese head (not Green Bay folks)! Can't eat it all the time well...because you know what happens....but when I do, it needs to be pretty damned magical. I was expecting ooey gooey, melty, stringy cheese when I got cold, solid, lumps...sound magical to you? The Korean cheesesteak sandwich wasnt bad...wasn't very tasty either. I honestly think I just got tired of eating it after bite 3. There was cheese in the description but none on the sandwich...I guess the chef assumed my child and I had had enough dairy for the day. Brussels sprouts was the winner! The sweet and tangy drizzle on top was the perfect addition! Crispy outer, tender and leafy on the inside. Tasted like a real vegetable. My advice to you, ladies and gents, keep it simple. Get something like tacos here. Don't do too much. Everyone has their limits.

    Junior Burger
    Sophia A.

    Every time I go to Junior's I get the same thing: a Junior Burger with a side of truffle fries. It is really that good and keeps me coming back. The service is always great. Junior's is great because it can be a casual meeting spot or something more elevated.

From the moment we sat down, the staff set the tone--professional, genuinely friendly, and impressively efficient. We began with a trio of starters that showcased both richness and restraint. The foie gras torchon was silky and indulgent, perfectly complemented by fruit confiture and warm, toasted Bellegarde Bakery bread--a classic pairing done right. Marinated crab claws, dressed in a lively chili vinaigrette, delivered a bright, briny punch, while the pickled pineapple and jalapeño chips added just the right balance of sweetness and heat. A cucumber salad rounded out the starters, crisp and refreshing, acting as a welcome palate reset before the mains. For entrées, comfort and finesse shared the plate. The confit chicken thighs were meltingly tender, paired with ham-braised greens swimming in a tangy apple cider vinegar broth. A lovely Dijon cream tied everything together, adding richness without overwhelming the dish. Equally memorable was the half smoked duck, beautifully executed and deeply flavorful, served over a smooth pumpkin-sweet potato purée. The cherry bourbon glaze brought a subtle sweetness, while the pepitas added texture and a nutty finish. Dessert was the perfect exclamation point on an already wonderful meal: a slice of hot chocolate cheesecake, decadent and deeply chocolaty, crowned with toasted marshmallow fluff that leaned just enough into nostalgia without crossing into excess. Toups Meatery continues to deliver thoughtful, soulful cooking with polish and heart--comfort food elevated, served by a team that clearly knows what they're doing.

To make matters worse, there was open bench seating in the back where customers ordering to-go could sit. I offered to order food to-go so we could at least sit down and get started while waiting, and she told me if I did that they would remove our name from the waitlist because "you have to pick one or the other." No willingness to problem solve whatsoever. She repeatedly said she was "sorry," but her actions showed the opposite. I was simply trying to work together to find some reasonable solution instead of continuing to watch everyone else get seated while our family, including small children, kept waiting. Absolutely horrible customer service experience.
