The place is grungy and semi cool but the food is very average. I was recommended the sashimi apetizer which came within 1 min. The sashimi was packed with so much rice and was extremely bland. I thought sashimi came without rice!! No? I took the specialty of the house, the fried chicken for the main meal. It was ordinary.... More

4 plates of fried chicken for the table, menu looked great wished we would of found this restaurant a little sooner. Fried chicken is different, but in a good way. It has a honey glaze to it, which is a little on the sweet side but very good. Very popular hang out.

I loved the shrimp and grits dish. However, my favorite dish was the catfish taco with the strawberry pecan salad. I topped it off with a slice of Bailey's irish cream cake. The slice was a nice size and very rich. The dessert was expensive. The strawberry cake it good there too.

This is one of my all-time favorite restaurants. The food here is vastly varied and delicious. Known for its fried chicken, nearly everything on this menu is good. Both dinner and brunch offer excellent options. The speciality cocktails are creative and fun. There are several different types of martinis that should absolutely be tried, especially the wedding cake martini. This... More

Seriously. Get the fried chicken. Don't go there for anything else. Order the fried chicken. If you don't like it, I'll refund your money!

We picked Julep because of its proximity to a function we were schedule to attend nearby. We were not disappointed. My "catch of the day" (mahi mahi) was wonderfully seasoned with a spicy cajun sauce. The only downside was the portion side, which could have been a bit larger for the price. My wife had the "famous" fried chicken, which... More

Decided to check out a Sunday brunch at Julep. The worst part about our 20 minute wait was having the opportunity to look around and see just how filthy this restaurant is. Grunge and grime in every nook and cranny and from floor to ceiling. While we waited in the bar area, a waitress came over to adjust the ceiling... More

We went in on Mother's Day and luckily we didn't have to wait too long, it's a very nice, yet casual place to eat. And their specialty, the honey glazed chicken, is absolutely fantastic!

Went between lunch and dinner on an afternoon date w/ hubby. Relaxed bar group, they took my special order for a fried green tomato, blt with pimento cheese on toasted sourdough and it was great. Ower/bartender was very nice.
