    The food, service and presentation was fantastic and made for a wonderful experience. My only reservation was the dinning area felt a bit congested, and as a result, felt a bit confined and challenging to hear at times. This aspect was unfortunate to an otherwise great experience.

    First time dinner at Jula's - been wanting to try forever. Should not have waited so long. Outstanding food (we thoroughly enjoyed the crispy duck rolls; PEAR & CHEESE FIOCCHI (with shrimp added!; and the CREOLE SHRIMP LINGUINE - both were very delicious); not to mention the incredible, professional and courteous service (Thanks Sam!) Great Champagne selection - my wife LOVES Veuve Cliquot!! An absolutely delightful dining experience. Will have to return when weather is better (was a dark and stormy night!) Remember the views from the old restaurant, but Jula's has really upgraded the space. Will not be our last visit - ready for brunch the next time! Highly recommended!!!!

    A lovely Valentine's evening experience. A great mix of tastings and shared entree. The wine pairings worked beautifully and Sam the sommelier gave a lecture on the local Terroir. Justin provided great service. We will be returning for their regular menu soon.
