Juniper

Juniper is a suburban hot spot you'll want to try. A no reservations policy makes snagging a table tough during prime time, but their inviting bar serves a sensational selection of food. More casual fare is served bar-sdie along with your pint of beer or favorite cocktail. Here you can enjoy quinoa falafel in a pita, lamb burgers on homemade English muffins, and a traditional shakshouka. The dinner menu boasts a selection of mezze that includes lamb tartare, souvlaki, and charred octopus salad, dips that can't be missed like the almond skordalia, and the pickled beet hummus, and entrees that wow like the skirt steak with whipped feta yogurt and the seafood couscous. Specialty cocktails have a savory element that sets them apart from most and the wine list is a bargain with reds running $42/bottle and whites set at $34.
