    I appreciated the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. The patio area is heated and quiet enough for conversation. Each course was delicious.

    We love Juanita and Maude! From Nick who is so friendly and accommodating , also the rest of the staff . The menu changes daily. All of the food is very fresh and seasonal! We are never disappointed! It is a rather small place and is a bit noisy . We personally don’t mind! The outdoor patio has a great feel! Oh the cocktails are great too! Definitely recommend a reservation!

    The service was unusually slow for this venue: possibly short staffed that evening? Al else was great.

    Food OK but not great, very noisy, and somewhat expensive, even for this area. I like this restaurant and have been there 3x, but was pretty unimpressed this time.

    We'd heard about the restaurant for some time. Chose my birthday to try it. Quite expensive, even for these days. Three "starters" and one dessert totaled $120 with tip. No alcohol, but did have sparkling water (from Arkansas!) Eclectic food dishes. Truly weird tuna ahi with garam masala that cancelled the taste of the tuna. It was an interesting experiment, but we'll not be returning.
