Fancy and unique. Pricy for what it is. I've had way better but still a new place to check out. I picked this to be my Father's Day lunch with a group. read more

Great food and dining experience. I have dined here several times and ea time the food and service was great. Great selection of drinks as well read more

My all time favorite restaurant! I cannot get enough of this place! Everything from food, staff to atmosphere is absolutely perfection! To begin- I have a gluten allergy. Those of you who have a food allergy know just how hard it is to eat out. Juniper Grill in Murrysville takes all of the hassle out of going out to eat with an allergy! Many of items on the menu can be modified to be or are gluten free! Almost all of the staff and the manager are extremely knowledgable on gluten free. Big deal for us gluten free people: THEY HAVE A SEPARATE FRYER FOR THE FRIES! Yes you heard me! Just make sure you tell your waiter as always! The atmosphere is so relaxing. The staff are friendly, accommodating, and helpful! My favorite meal: Campfire chicken burger with fries (minus the bun for gf), and the salsa trio with chips. I cannot get enough of this place! read more

My husband and I met up with a co-worker here for drinks and dinner on a Saturday afternoon / night. The ambience is great, staff was friendly and prompt and the food was very, very good. We were also surprised at the pricing. Our final bill for the 3 of us was cheaper than what my husband and I are accustomed to paying for just the 2 of us in Philadelphia. Definitively stop in and try it out! read more

Excellent service, atmosphere & Tex-mex menu - the guacamole, ribs, brisket & enchiladas were delicious. Already planning next lunch or dinner at Juniper Grill. read more

I stopped in yesterday after a particularly stressful afternoon for something to eat and a little peace. What I had was without a doubt the best hamburger, macaroni and cheese and cup of coffee that I've ever had. I know it sounds like saying a lot but it's absolutely true. This was my first time there and I definitely will be back soon. read more

Fabulous atmosphere and food! Bartenders and wait staff are great and very knowledgeable of the menu.

The bison burger was amazing. Fries were phenomenal. Chicken was tender an melted in mouth. We also had the tacos an the salsa trio for apps. Perfect place to stop before heading to Pens game. read more

The Juniper Grill is small. The food is really fresh and delicious! In addition, the service is great! My drink, peach sangria, was watered down, but still had a great flavor. I love that they have WiFi for their customers. read more

This place is overpriced for what they actually served. Got the Mahi Mahi burger, very bland and it tastes like they didn't even try to season it. The fries were a huge disappointment. They were thin, burnt, and soggy. My girlfriend has the enchiladas and they were bland as well. No kick, no spice, no seasoning on it. They prepared the food nicely but overall a huge disappointment. read more

What a great neighborhood eatery! Juniper Grill does a lot of things the right way. Service was great with both our greeter and waiter. I had the evening special - orange roughy with lobster sauce, wood grilled asparagus and quinoa. Every element of the fish was well balanced, tender and perfectly seasoned. My husband ordered the short rib tacos and roasted vegetables. There was a healthy ratio of short ribs and he enjoyed the dish right down to a clean plate. I helped with the roasted vegetables - such a great balance of smokiness and a perfect al dente texture. My stepson had the three combo platter - pulled pork, brisket and sausage. None of that was wasted! The barbecue sauce was perfect - lots of flavor without too much sugar. No complaints all around! Of course, since the food was all so rewarding we had to go for the dessert, and went with the seasonal apple cobbler. Served in a cast iron square, it had a nice crunchy crust with an apple-forward flavor. The spices were subtle to let the apple flavor shine. I loved the fact that there was nothing artificial in the flavor profile, and nothing was overly sweet, right down to the ice cream topper. In a world where there is so much sugar or salt used to compensate for inferior ingredients, Juniper Grill doesn't use props and the ingredients shine on their own merit. That takes skill from a good chef. Well done! read more

The Juniper Grill was a wonderful surprise to find. From the time we walked in the door the staff was helpful, friendly and we had wonderful service. The wait staff as well as the meal were outstanding. Definitely not your usual Pittsburgh menu. I would highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Pleasantly surprised. Hummus appetizer was fantastic. Server brought many extra warm pitas to make sure we finished it all. Ahi tuna salad for dinner which was also very good. It's a lovely restaurant, and the staff seems genuinely kind and eager to help. I'd go again. read more

I have had a consistently great meal every time I come here. They are kid friendly as well and my 4 year old loved her food. Sunday brunch is great and good cocktail selections. Service is really thoughtful and attentive. The brisket sandwich is amazing as are their burgers - which are also made with some brisket mixed in. read more

Just passing through and took a chance. Great choice! The food was excellent, my wife and I had the brisket quesadillas and pulled pork enchiladas, highly recommend them. The peach dessert was average, but not enough to lower the ranking. Good service and nice setting. read more

Food was decent but service was terrible. We were seated immediately, it was pretty slow inside and it took the server over 20 mins to bring us waters. When she came over she was extremely quiet and barely said a word. We had a few questions about the menu and she did not know how to answer. read more

This is the best restaurant on this side of town, so glad they came to Murrysville. We've made multiple trips now and the food is outstanding! The beef short rib is phenomenal, and the fish tacos are the best I have ever had, nationwide. This place is tops. Everything is great. Definitely worth a special trip. They just do things right. read more

Went here last night with friends, had reservations for 4 people at 7pm. We did have to wait about 20 min, but had a drink at the beautiful bar and the time went quickly. Loved the decor and the atmosphere - very cozy and intimate. We had 2 appetizers: the cheesy bacon dip and the brisket quesadillas- both were excellent! We all ordered specials (filet and the seafood dish) and it was very, very good. Our server Kelly was sweet and attentive. My only mild criticism would have been that we ordered a bottle of wine and it didn't come until after our dinners had been served (slight timing issue) and we would've liked it before. But not a big deal at all. Loved the Juniper Grill - great date night! read more

I had the best Prickly Pear Margarita ever at this establishment! Actually, I enjoyed it so much I had two. This is not your everyday drink, and I hesitated to order something I only like at Canyon Restaurant, in Fort Lauderdale. This one is just as good, and when I told the barmaid that I don't like sweet drinks, she adjusted the margarita for me - WOW! read more

Juniper Grill - Murrysville - Best Prickly Pear Margarita ever! - New American Near Me - Murrysville, Pennsylvania

Decided to stop on a whim. Not quite sure what style they're going for- it's a combo of bbq and mexican? Interesting. The drinks are fantastic! The salads- not much more than wet lettuce and they were a'la carte. My steak was perfect and the crab cake was great! My husband raved over the mashed potatoes and enjoyed the ribs, although they were on the sweet side. I'd definitely come again. read more

Had lunch here today with my husband and I was really looking forward to a good salad. I order the Rotisserie Roasted Chicken & Avocado Salad and he ordered a Burger with Potato Salad. The chicken had a very odd taste, croutons were soft and too sweet, and the dressing had so much sugar in it I couldn't even eat the salad. We have had excellent food here up until today....very disappointed! read more

They had me at brisket quesadillas... They lost me at, can't remove the jalapenos because the quesadilla is premade... Too bad we already placed the order two minutes before asking them to hold the jalapenos. The server offered to try to stop the kitchen but only after saying they already started cooking it, so I felt too guilty to cancel the order. Wasn't happy with the meal at all. Service was good. Sangria was good. That was about it. read more

Went here on a recent Friday with a group of 7. First, the good news...excellent service, managed a private room in the back. Now, the bad or so-so news. The main room was crazy busy...good for them business-wise but the noise was intense. It would have been just about impossible to have anything resembling a conversation. Luckily, we scored the private room and could shut the door which took the noise level down quite a bit. The food was okay...not too bad, but nothing was great. Had fish tacos (a personal favorite treat for me)...these were pretty bland although the presentation was nice. Made w/tilapia so they're pretty bland from the jump. Basic ingredients were okay but nothing jumped out as being special. Others had similar (okay but bland) experiences. So, if you are doing a night out and want something special, pass this one up. If you just need some okay food, this might fill the bill...there certainly nothing bad here, just so-so. Also, pretty expensive for what you're getting. read more

Excellent! Food is fab and the staff too. Carrie the bartender is especially good. She's welcoming , attentive and will make you any drink.... even the uncommon ones. read more

Loved the scallop special and pumpkin cornbread dessert served up with flair by Chris Little!

I just went in to this restaurant with my husband and never got waited on. We sat for 10 minutes. The 2 groups who came in after us had water and beverage napkins placed in front of them before they even settled into their seats. I am one half of a biracial couple and those who filed in after us were Caucasian. No one ever approached our table. After 10 minutes of watching everyone else get service, we walked out. Can't say for sure why this occurred but the obvious difference between us and the other diners certainly makes me wonder. read more

Our lunch was delicious and Kelly, our server, was even better. I would especially recommend the rotisserie chicken salad with the killer cucumber wasabi dressing. And the cornbread appetizer is well worth the calories. read more

My wife and I were hungry and found this nearby on Yelp. We saw it had 4 stars and decided to give this place a try. We were pleasantly surprised. When we walked in, the place looked nicer than we expected. We were seated fairly quickly. Since it was the weekend they had a special brunch menu. The price points overall for food were not bad, so that was a plus. Drinks: I had the angry mule (basically a moscow mule with jalapeno vodka I think) which was enjoyable and my wife had a grilled pineapple mojito. 4 stars for this. We got a free app of street tacos for checking into yelp. Since it was a free app, we figured it would be fine, but to our delight they were really good. They were presented well, had a nice green sauce and a slaw on top. 4.5 stars for this. My wife ordered from the brunch menu and got a skillet. The skillet was pretty good, but the side she got (roasted brussels sprouts) was even better. There was a nice flavor on the sprouts as they were roasted with garlic and olive oil. 4 stars for this. I ordered shrimp and crab enchiladas, which came with a side of drunken beans and rice. This was pretty good, though definitely not a highlight of the experience. 3.5 to 4 stars for this. Service overall was good, polite, patient and water refills were fairly consistent. 4 to 4.5 stars. Only thing I think they should do to expand patronage is add some PA craft beers on tap. There are a number of craft beer drinkers who would help expand patronage. People who drink craft beer definitely are not low on the income scale and will pay $6 for a pint of good beer. There are not that many places with good PA craft beers on tap on this side of town. Crave is not as good an overall establishment as Juniper Grill, so I think JG has a real opportunity here that I think would be golden. Heck, I'd be happy to help make this happen if there was a way for me to do so. read more

Amazing food, even better drinks. The raspberry Bellini martini is the best martini I've ever had. The service is superb. I've recommended Juniper to many many persons. Keep up the great job. read more

This place was fantastic! Our server was Jordan and he was absolutely wonderful. He knew the menu so well and was great with pointing out his personal favorites. I got the salmon and it was absolutely perfect. My husband got the beef short rib and he said it was so great and melted in your mouth! We also got the brisket queso which I recommend highly because it was so good! The cornbread is out of this world and the blackberry bourbon lemonade is the perfect cocktail to enjoy while you wait for your dinner. We will definitely be visiting again! read more

Just went to this place last night and I've been hearing wonderful things so I figured I would try it out. I'm so happy I did! Staff was amazing and super friendly and the food was great! Will definitely be going back ASAP! I had the seared ahi tuna salad and it was so good highly recommend the only thing negative I can say was the tuna was a tiny bit fatty but other than that it was awesome and the dressing is delicious! read more

Love all of the food I have ever had there and the desserts. Excellent service. Fun and relaxed car atmosphere. Definitely get reservations for the weekend, large parties or holidays. read more

Decent menu but nothing too spectacular. The cornbread is good but nothing to write home about. The kids menu is pretty basic and my kids weren't overly impressed, except they did enjoy the ice cream. I had the grilled fish tacos, which were pretty good; hubby had one of the BBQ plates, which was just ok. Server was good and efficient. Overall a good meal and experience. read more

I have been here a number of times and enjoyed all visits. They have the best key lime pie ever.

My wife and I tried the Juniper Grill today. Very clean, very very comfortable seats in the booth. Interesting decor. Ok now on to the real reason I'm here. As I write this review, I'm salivating. I'm still STUFFED from the delicious food, but thinking OF that delicious food, and trying to describe it, has me drooling on my keyboard. I'm a carnivore. I'm not an indiscriminate carnivore, but if it's meat, I want it. For appetiser I had something like Spicy Shrimp flatbread (not exactly sure of the name, my brain is still muttering exclamations to itself over how good the food was). My wife tried the Brisket Queso Dip. Both were excellent. My wife suggested trying the dip on the flatbreat and it was, believe it or not, even better! For the main course, I had a salad... YEAH, RIGHT! CARNIVORE, remember? I had to try the Smokehouse Platter *as suggested by our very good server, Jordan. I selected ribs, brisket, and smoked chicken. The ribs were AWESOME! I spent quite a while in the military, and Ive eaten ribs in most but not all of the states in USA. These ribs are in my top 10. Juicy, fall-off-the-bone goodness. Dang it! Let me get a towel for my keyboard. Ok, now on to the brisket. Brisket is very easy to make, but very hard to make well. These guys did it right! Dang it, let me get a LARGER towel for my keyboard. The hand towel gave up. Ok, Brisket. Brisket.. BRISKET!! Awesome McAwesome Dish. The chicken breast was great as well. Jordan also suggested the corn bread. As stated before, I've eaten around the US. I KNOW cornbread. Juniper's cornbread was in the top 3 of the best I've ever tasted. Ok, moving on to dessert. I was stuffed. I had enough food for another meal due to the generous size of the appetizer and mains. Jordan mentioned Sarris ice cream. Ive tried the Sarris chocolate, and it's excellent. Despite the fact that my wife said she was full, I ordered two scoops of the ice cream, knowing if it was good, she'd want to try. The ice cream was sweet vanilla goodness, covered with a chocolate shell. Yes, despite both of us being a bit more than full, we finished off the ice cream. NOTE: Rumors that my wife growled at me when I reached between her and the ice cream may or may not be true. Ok fine, she didn't growl, out loud. So, final summation: The food may be considered a little pricy by some, but I'd say that, without a doubt, it's well worth the cost. Great food, great service, great experience. We're going back. And Im drooling again.... read more

My wife and I both liked our meals. When we were ready to leave it was raining heavily. As we went outside one of their employees, Raphael, came up to me and offered to help me get my wife and I into our car. Since my wife was in a wheelchair this wasn't an easy task, Raphael came out in the rain holding his umbrella over my wife as she got into the car. We all got wet because of the severity of the rain, but we would have been a lot wetter if he hadn't been there. Thanks again Raphael! read more

No quality control coming out of the kitchen. Did a very good job of remodeling the place and the service is very good. I ate here right when they opened a few years ago and it was good. Since then the food has gotten worse every time we've been back. The tables around us were sending food back so I thought I'd order safe (one of their standards). I got the ribs. They were dry burnt just awful. They had to of been made several days ago. The side dishes (oh my). Do not get the potato salad. The potatoes tasted like they were frozen and thawed. The runny white sauce on them is disgusting. Corn bread so so stale they could of made croutons out of them. The french fries and macaroni salad were the only edible thing. I ate there last night and how anyone could of plated my food is disturbing. The waitress was very nice. Avoid this place they will not change and don't want to hear it about the quality of their food This was the 4th last chance and last - they are horrible. read more

Ok... I would eat here every night if i could. The food is just delicious; love the atmosphere; and the waitstaff are soooo nice. The food is seasoned so well. Definately something special for a nice evening! read more

I enjoy the ambiance but I have to say I've been here twice for happy hour and the prickly pear margarita tastes like you're drinking straight sugar and I like sweet drinks but it's just not good. read more

My husband and I wandered in here the other Friday night, and we had such a pleasant experience. Staff was gracious, informative and efficient. Atmosphere was upscale yet comfortable. Food was awesome! I had the seared tuna salad, and as one of my favorite entrees to order whenever restaurants offer it, I am quite picky and have high expectations. Tuna was fresh and tasty, and the salad was stocked with filling veggies and wonton crisps. Sometimes it's hard to feel satisfied after a salad - but not here. Our server clarified ingredients with us in case either of us had food allergies or intolerances. Very thoughtful! My husband said his tuna sandwich was one of the best in his life. We just moved here from Manhattan, and love to go out to eat and try new places. We've been looking for a high quality dinner spot in town (it's been hard to find), and this place is right at the top of our list! read more
