Review: I'd given Julian's an unfavorable review back in March of 2007, but I've deleted it so that I can write a favorable one in its place. I am pleased to say that the food and service at Julian's on our most recent visits have been outstanding. The vegan entrees, soups, and desserts were each delicious, and our waitstaff were very pleasant and attentive. (No more smug hipster attitudes, which was refreshing!) I can honestly say that this is a great place for a vegan to take veg/non-veg friends and family for a thoughtfully prepared, interesting, and delicious sit-down meal. Also, the beer selection is great.
Pros: hugely improved service * delicious food * nice "upscale" option
Cons: * * |

Review: i love julians. the food is always delicious, and the atmosphere is interesting. it isn't cheap but it's not over expensive i don't think. you're paying for a) seasonal and creative food b) vegan food and c) an interesting atmosphere. it's not too much to ask for to pay a little more than you would at a normal restaurant. i have had not waitstaff issues. sometimes you need to wait a while for the food but it's usually because the place is SO BUSY. i think it's well worth the trip.
Pros: vegan food * atmosphere * nice beer selection
Cons: no parking * really busy * |

Review: The food was mediocre and the waitress was not friendly. My boyfriend and I, who struggle to pay bills as I only work in a restaurant as well, left a small tip of about 2.00. The waitress actually CHASED us out of the restaurant and asked us why we were so cheap! I have never been so embarassed in my life. I can not fathom actually chasing someone out of a restaurant because they did not leave a BIG ENOUGH TIP??!!! How unclassy. It is not like we didn't leave a tip at all, it was all we could afford. She was rude anyway and even if I could've afforded more she would not have got much more. I will never go there again and they do not deserve any of your precious money either.
Pros: * *
Cons: * * |

Review: I recently ate with a big vegetarian group ~ 16 people on a wednesday night. The menu had a ok selection of vegetarian/food, I believe you could substitute tofu or seitan for meat. I had a smoked tofu salad and is was very good. The waitor was terrific. It was a bit pricey, but the food and wine was good. Easy to get to too. Parking on the street only, so that was a bit of a challenge.
Pros: good food * good service * convenient location
Cons: parking * pricey menu * only one bathroom |

Review: Julians was ok for vegan food but ive had better. The gingerbread pancakes were very dry and wasnt thrilled by them adding powdered sugar on top. The tempeh sausage was also dry and very crumbly.

Cons: Dry * * |

Review: This was my first visit to Julian's. The atmosphere was fun and the food was great, my only issue was that our meal took about 45 minutes to get to the table. The waiter didn't seem to think that this was excessive, so that tells me that this is normal. Go there, just not when your in a hurry!
Pros: Fun atmosphere * Great food * Great vegan choices
Cons: food took forever * * |

Review: Julian's offers some excellent food. They serve breakfast all day until 5pm and then serve dinner until 11pm. I would suggest their tofu scramblers with sautéed veggies, house fries, and toast before 5pm, and the Garden Burger on Italian bread after 5pm. They really have their meals dialed so everything tastes great! Don't forget about dessert. The vegan chocolate browny and soy ice cream was ridiculous. Also, really nice and helpful staff that were willing to answer all of my questions.
Pros: Excellent vegan food * Knowledgeable staff * Big portions
Cons: Not a cheap meal * * |

Review: Although it was a bit noisier than I had anticipated, I was able to quickly adjust to my settings and get down on some vegan "eggz" benedict with hollandaise sauce. I was very impressed with my selection. They seemed to offer a fair amount of vegan selections including pancakes, tempeh sausage, tofu scrambles and some other lunch stuff, which I plan on going back to try sometime. I also have to state that we received exemplary service all around, and with a smile to boot. Beyond that, my only criticism is that they do not serve/brew fair-trade coffee, but it's not the end of the world. It's too bad my experience had to be tainted by the table of punks vying for attention and reactions by being extremely loud, rude and obnoxious, but hey, faux-punks gotta eat too.
Not the kind of place I would take my mamadukes to, but a fun atmosphere to go with that special somebody, or to chill with some friends and have good food. Or....or....or to take those lessons you've learned on being punk you had gotten from MTV2 to the street, nahmsayin?
Pros: Vegan options * Not too expensive * Nice atmosphere
Cons: Darn punkers! * No fair-trade coffee * * |
