Juliette's Bistro

I really do love this place. Nestled inside The Marriott in Downtown Jacksonville (formally the Omni) is this sweet place called Juliette’s. I have watched this establishment go from a 4 star high end feasting delight to a run of the mill typical hotel eatery and back again. I really enjoyed our pricey but worth it meal before a show with my family. The waitress was green … but helpful and willing to try. I knocked it down to 4 stars for two reasons. First we arrived about 15 minutes early and we were not allowed to sit in the bar area and enjoy a drink until the restaurant opened. I say this as I had almost made earlier reservations from their app and if I had we would have still been standing in front of their door. Second my daughter has a strawberry allergy and mentioned this before ordering to our server. She wrote in all caps no strawberries and her meal was served with.. strawberries. Her meal had to be returned and remade (which we believe they did so cudos to them) and we had to eat our hot food in front of her. The Crispy Skin Salmon was noteworthy and worth returning just for that!

My husband and I came here before a performance just to have drinks and maybe a light dinner. The host seating people was very rude when finding out We didn’t have a reservation. The place was practically empty when we arrived. She made us awkwardly stand there while she fumbled around and finally advised us that she could put us at the back of the restaurant because it’s all she had. Again, the restaurant was empty at 430 in the afternoon. She grabbed menus and told us to follow her, and sure enough she took us to the last table in the back of the restaurant and again repeated if we would of had reservations she could have sat us elsewhere. Again, I’ll reiterate the restaurant was almost empty. We we ended up getting a water and chips and salsa and leaving! We will take our business elsewhere. Maybe you should have the grumpy lady seating people take a class or two on how to treat people!! Won’t be back!

My husband and Son took me here for my birthday and it was an amazing experience! From the beautiful atmosphere to the hospitable staff especially Jacob and to top it off with the absolutely amazing food and drinks I could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you for a show stopping birthday!

Came in for lunch and was only allowed to sit at the bar. I got a soda to drink and it was never refilled, not sure if there are free refills but it wasn't even offered. The food was meh at best. Tasted like prepackaged lunch meat on my turkey club. The bartender appeared to be setting up the bar for the evening
