How adorable! The atmosphere is intimate and cozy. Julep is situated in a little burrow with Barolo Wine Bar and A OK Cafe. All three establishments look clean, inviting, and interesting. :)
Went to Julep with a very large group (we called to make a reservation) and received excellent service. The servers were friendly and attentive without being overbearing.
The the cocktails were good, stiff drinks. I ordered the house Julep and was impressed by the strong but smooth bourbon flavor.
The snacks: The biscuit with butter and jam was a game-changer. Very delicious, I will be returning if not just for these little nuggets of heaven. The pimento goat cheese with crackers and corn bread were also a crowd favorites.
The small plates: The Mac n' cheese was great, as was the blue crab jasmine rice cake.
Large plates: The perlou and the Farro Risotto were absolutely delicious.
The food was delicious and satisfying but the portions were not overly large. Most people cleaned their plates completely and did not take home leftovers (we ordered lots of starters and also dinner for each of us).
Julep is a new favorite of mine! I will definitely be returning for dinner and/or cocktails.
