Juniper

We ordered half bird spicy, bread basket, mac n cheese, collard greens, and some smokey catfish dip. First, chicken was absolutely amazing. 10/10. And mac n cheese, creamy and well cooked but maybe need little bit more of seasoning. Collard greens, good texture but it was bit sweet to me. Smokey catfish dip had very clean flavor. Overall, I will come back to try other things! Also our server, Seth was very attentive and kind!

Everything about this place was charming, especially our waiter Sam K. I just loved him. Although the menu isn’t as extensive as the ones in some of the other google reviews (the restaurant went through a rebrand recently), the items they did have were amazing, and we left feeling full and happy. Highly recommend!

I’ve been coming to Juniper for years solely for the fried chicken so when the restaurant transitioned to the poultry-centric “Sunday Best” I was ecstatic. Sure, the old menu was filled with gourmet delights that a copious amount of people enjoyed. I was not one of those people. I ONLY ever got the fried chicken. People with whom I dined ventured off the beaten path into the depths of gastronomic pleasantries but I remained stalwart. Sunday Best held true to the fried chicken I’ve grown to love at Juniper. One could even say there are slight improvements upon the old recipe. The chicken itself was cooked wonderfully. Juicy on the inside, crispity-crunchity on the outside. I particularly enjoyed the spicy version after trying both side-by-side. Seemingly a Nashville inspired hot oil. The strips were thick and delectable but the main attraction for me was the bone-in variety. I had the breast and wing. Both were fall-off-the-bone tender. Well seasoned and mouthwatering. 9.15/10 clucks. The sides were hit or miss. The bread plate was AMAZING. The cornbread was my favorite followed by the fluffy Cheez-Its. My friend got the mac and cheese and could only take a single bite of it. Just not their cup of tea. The cucumber tomato salad was good but the collard greens were too sweet. The fries were crispy and texturally magnificent but very slightly too salty. My biggest let down was the ranch. For years I had smuggled Wingstop ranch into Juniper to accompany my chicken. For whatever reason they just didn’t offer it back then. Now they have a buttermilk-dill ranch and let me tell you it should be called “dill sauce in the style of ranch”. Very overpowering dill notes and the texture is odd and lumpy. I reckon I’ll be going back to bringing the ol’ trusty Wingstop ranch with me on future visits. Overall I LOVED the chicken and the atmosphere. The Cheerwine was a tremendous surprise as well. I enjoyed the Cheerwine cocktail AND a bottle of the plain, unadulterated, soft drink with my meal. Both really hit the spot. First rate service and friendly staff. Very strongly recommend.

Started off the meal with the bread basket, which is a 10 out of 10 would recommend as well as the pimento cheese. Both delicious. Then my partner and I shared the Sunday Best hot chicken sandwich which was so flavorful. Everything was really yummy. I will say if you're hoping for a fountain soda, they only have cans, which they price at $4, so we'll be sticking with water next time. Nice and bright atmosphere. Seems casual and relaxed.

Was a great Date night pick. The atmosphere was new and vibrant. Well lit and upbeat feel. The food was excellent, large portions at a reasonable price. The service was great for a busy night. Not a long wait once our order was taken. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Great tasting spicy chicken. Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice atmosphere as well. I'm in love with the cheese crackers on the breadboard. It's definitely worth going back to for that chicken!

WOW!!!! Food was incredible. We ordered the whole fried chicken with 3 large sides. It was the best, the chicken was crispy, juicy, goodness, mashed potatoes with pot lickka gravy was awesome, vegan collards greens was perfect. We truly enjoyed the food and atmosphere here. I would give Juniper 10 🌟 I recommend that you try this place, And don't let me forget about the staff, everyone was very polite and courteous, our waiter Kevin did an excellent job.

My Partner took me on a date night to Juniper. I had never heard of the place before and was excited as I didn't know what to expect. Driving to the place it was beautiful from the outside looking in. Very sleek. I noticed there were several tables with chairs set up for outside dining. Going inside I was amazed at the ambiance and decorations of the establishment. It was sleek yet modern it was very nice. There was this interesting chandelier I noticed upon entry and I took a picture of it for you. He did make reservations and we were seated immediately. The staff that greeted us was nice and polite. Getting to out table and looking at the menus I couldn't decide what to order for my meal. I kept seeing this St. Louis chicken and hot sauce. It sounds so good as there were several choices to choose from. I was torn between the chicken and fish. I ended up getting the chicken strip meal with a side salad. My partner ordered the short ribs meal. He also go a bread sampler plate and y'all that bread was so dang good. We had several types of breads, a container of butter and jam. It was so good. Y'all gotta get this plate. I tried my partners short ribs and they were good. He tried my chicken strips. Everything we had was good at Juniper. Next time I will try the chicken with the St. Louis hot sauce. This was a great establishment for a date night or a night out with the family. The staff was awesome and put out high chairs for the families who did come into the restaurant. This place is wheelchair accessible as well. I had no complaints about this place at all and recommend that you try it out for your next date or family night. #Tonetta #speakyourtruth
