I brought some very good friends there for a birthday celebration. I had my first experience a couple months ago, and I wanted to share that experience. We had a great time. My friends are still raving about the day we had today. We truly enjoyed the singing, the food, the fellowship and the great service received from Khai. We will definitely be back. Thank you!

This was our first visit to Jula’s. We were the first ones in the door for a Saturday brunch. I was amazed by the views. Everyone from the hostess to the server were all smiles and very friendly. I definitely plan to go back some other time.

First visit was absolutely wonderful. The view is gorgeous. The food was superb. Duck roll, pot stickers, lamb pops and shrimp linguini were all wonderful.

We enjoyed our first visit to Jula’s. The food and service were very good. Prices were high especially $20.00 for a cheese plate and $10.00 for bread. Very nice atmosphere.

This is my second time dining at Jula’s. It’s becoming one of my favorite restaurants. I love the ambience. The food is delicious and the pricing is very moderate, especially for the drinks. It was a little noisy this day as there was a group having a holiday party in the private section of the dining room. The music was loud and the hostess was shouting out line dance cues. It was hard to carry a conversation at my table.
