    Excellent as always. The Grilled Peach and Burrata salad was excellent. Burger was delicious. Also ordered pork schnitzel which was good. The gravy definitely makes it.

    Kimberlee was fantastic! Perfect blend of insight on the menu and not being too much of an interruption at our table. Roasted oysters, crab cakes, pork tomahawk with green beans and mashed potatoes were outstanding. Mac n cheese was dry but the bourbon butter cake more than made up for it!

    Had a reservation for early dinner (quieter then). We were warmly greeted & seated promptly in a booth as requested. Coconut shrimp & fries were excellent, sautéed shrimp with feta, black olives & peppers over fried green tomatoes was fantastic! Wines were great. Food & drink are always excellent here. Waiter was very sweet but service uneven; he brought water & bread/oil promptly but took a long time to return to take our drink & dinner orders. Brought soup before wine. Didn’t ask if we wanted dessert before bringing check. We ordered desserts to go. Perhaps he was just inexperienced. It was still a very pleasant experience; we will be back. Thank you to all staff!

    My wife and I dined at Juno & the Peacock for our wedding anniversary. We had an amazing experience, thanks to Patrick’s (our waiter) excellent service and recommendations. Starting with our cosmopolitan and Moscow mule, the Ahi Tuna Tartare and Pork belly were exquisite. The crab-crusted grouper and winter squash campanelle were delicious. To top it off the key lime tart was to die for. We will definitely be back!
