Everything was perfect, from the fabulous "Smoke" cocktail to the delicious filet mignon, the scrumptious sides and the fabulous ginger creme brule. The service was professional and efficient but warm and friendly thanks to Sarah. It was a real five star experience.

This intimate restaurant above busy Central Avenue was an awesome night out. A terrific wine list, house made pastas, and delicious desserts made for a wonderful meal with my friend. I highly recommend the the Lamb Sugo. The waiter recommended a Tempranillo wine for me that I ended up loving. What a great spot in downtown St Pete. Make reservations because it is small and fills up quick, with all the local wine aficionados hanging out at the bar.

Great food. We sat outside, weather was nice but just views of the street, some occasional loud cars. Service was very good- just wish he had told us about the specials(we learned about them after we ordered when we heard the other server talking about them.) All our meals were very good. Tasty, fresh, and a lot of food. Great experience!

About the restaurant

The Story of the The Peacock and Juno is a tale where the goddess reassures her creatures that their talents were given to them with intention. The peacock with its plumage, the nightingale with his song, the eagle with its strength. Juno and the Peacock perfectly fits in without out theme of synchronicity and intention- The intention of every detail from decor and presentation, to each ingredient used and sourced, and most importantly, our flock of intentional and elegant hospitality.

Excellent, food and service. Jeremy was great, and made sure everything was perfect. He is a fantastic advantage with all his restaurant experience to now be at Juno and the Peacock. Our server Jeff was attentive, friendly and made excellent recommendations. We loved our appetizers, crab cake, (no fillers) Monica’s corn bread with honey butter. Jeremy was right, delicious. We both enjoyed grouper for our main dish. Came out pipping hot, loved it. Enough that we had a doggie bag.. key lime pie, yummy. The only negative is that they are really in need of reducing the noise level, and they are fully aware of that and working on it. Thank you for an excellent experience. Highly recommend this restaurant. So good, we bought gift cards for holiday gifts!!

We shared a New York strip and it was cooked perfectly and so delicious. One of the things we always love about Ruth Chris is the hot sizzling plate with the delicious butter on your steak. The chop salad is one of our favorites and of course good old standard baked potato on the side. our server was Mary Beth, and she was very attentive and did a great job.
