The kitchen delivers a constantly rotating, chef-driven menu that uses hand-selected, seasonal ingredients crafted with precision, passion, and creativity. Founded by Owner Michael Rosen, Juniper's kitchen is backed by a supergroup of culinary minds that produce one of the most refined yet imaginative menus in town, paired with an award-winning wine list from the city's top sommeliers.

From the OpenTable editors: This Little Italy mainstay is responsible for upping the neighborhood’s culinary cred. The kitchen takes local fish and ingredients from area farms, then turns them into stunning plates with international flavors like pappardelle with sunchoke stroganoff or albacore tuna crudo with citrus vinaigrette.

    Outstanding food. It was Valentines Day and we had booked the table before they announced the prix fixe so we didn’t know about it. Pretty pricey and more food than we would normally order but everything was just perfect.

    Set menu on Valentine’s Day was of fair to high quality, and a fair amount of options from each course, however, portion size was small for the cost.
