Good food. Great service. Friendly wait staff. It was a beautiful day. We opted for outdoor seating, which was perfect. We ordered the cheese burger and fish sandwich. Both came with fries. The fish was fresh, and the burger was cooked perfectly. Will definitely be back.

Every time I go to Junior's I get the same thing: a Junior Burger with a side of truffle fries. It is really that good and keeps me coming back. The service is always great. Junior's is great because it can be a casual meeting spot or something more elevated.

Juniors is the best restaurant ever !!!! The cheese curds were so delicious , they were cheesy , and amazing. For the entree I got a cheeseburger with fries and it was so good but I would prefer no sesame seed buns. This was so bussin and I will come tonight...........maybe

Stopped in to grab a bite for dinner. I was on my own, so I sat at the bar. The atmosphere was casual, warm, and beautiful. The service was warm, friendly, and fast. I had the tuna poke appetizer and also the cheese curds appetizer. Both were absolutely delicious! Their upstairs private dining area is gorgeous! What a wonderful neighborhood gem.

We waited for our food but it was worth the wait. Our server was very attentive and continued to refill our water glasses. I had the bloom coffee , best lavender honey coffee I have ever had. The waitress suggested almond milk and that made it. We had the breakfast burrito, it was big enough to share. Don't say no to the bread pudding bites! I love the groove at the bar and the blue French water glasses!

This place is so incredibly beautiful, the drinks are perfect, the food is absolutely delicious up and down the menu and the staff are professional. I love the long views through the tall windows and atrium entrance. The second floor garden porch is walled by the lush branches of a young live oak. Indoors and downstairs, the bar is clean, bright and elegant, and the table seating is appropriate for business or a lunch or evening with the family. Outside patio seating in front and back harkens to a relaxed and elegant Spanish plaza. The upstairs indoor room has the feel of going out with your best friends before night full of festivities or the perfect place for a romantic date. The Cobb salad is so clever with its puffed corn kernels in lieu of croutons, and with its leafy greens instead of iceburg. It is very delicious and light. The shrimp and corn was bisque very satisfying. Delicious, large gulf shrimp that are cooked on pony (thank you for buying local!). A bisque that had the right color and texture, and with a proper fish stock and the appropriate amount of cream to steer clear of qualifying as heavy. I'm a lover of piping hot soup - and the hotter-than-warm just didn't do it for me tonight. The truffle fries are a dream. The fries are fresh and they spare no expense on the quality of the shaved Parmesan and the truffle oil. I often order the juniors burger - two patties with high quality meat, a signature delicious sauce and well-curated accoutrements. It is hard not to eat it quickly. The red beans and rice with sausage or fried catfish or grilled (or fried) chicken on Mondays is probably the best red beans plate available on wash day (Mondays) in all of New Orleans. The sazerac is traditional and perfect. The juniors old fashioned is orange forward and hangs on the back of the palate with an all spice liquor. They are professional in their concoctions across the drink menu. Desserts - I (and my little girls) absolutely love the salted fudge gooey cake with its crisp pistachio ice cream topping a hot/fudgy/brownie foundation. The servers swear by the white chocolate bread pudding. I will need to try next time! Service is warm and focused. I consistently find the waiters and waitresses to be very kind and knowledgeable about every item on the menu. Could it be the best restaurant in Lakeview? Yes. Is it a gem for the city of New Orleans? Also yes. Experience it for yourself.

I took a short Uber ride to eat here while visiting the area for a conference, and I have thought about the delicious burger and fries several times since then! The inside is beautiful - so cozy, clean, and airy downstairs. Upstairs bar area is open and has such great vibes. They also have adorable outdoor seating. I had a burger and truffle fries, based on yelp recommendations, and a drink from the bar... all of them were A+ delicious. Absolutely one of the best burger and fry meals I've ever eaten. The service was attentive and friendly. The waiter was talkative and recommended an ice cream place down the street for desserts, which was also delicious. Absolutely recommend this place. Get the burger and fries - you won't regret it!
