Finally getting around to reviewing Cafe Juanita from our January visit. (If I could, I would give a 3.5-star review.) We have been dining at Cafe Juanita off and on since it opened over 40 years ago. When we were asked by a client what our favorite restaurant was, we immediately answered Cafe Juanita! We were given a very generous gift card by her. When checking out the menu before our visit, I was surprised to see they had gone exclusively to a tasting menu. I don't know when it changed, but we were disappointed. We got over that and made our reservation. I appreciated their website that suggested appropriate attire and to refrain from cell phone usage. We arrived via Uber and were dropped off at the door. We were surprised to be greeted by 2 hosts that were both wearing masks. It was hard to hear/understand them, and the masks were just a little off-putting. My husband and I were shown to our table that was sandwiched between a 4 topper and another table for 2. In our opinion, there was little ambiance...it's modern, loud, bright, and packed. Long gone are the days of the cozy, intimate setting where the menu was written on a chalk board. We really missed that. (Yes, we have been back since those days.) We were there on a Friday night, around 8:00pm and the clientele appeared to be young techie types. The "kid" next to us was wearing a beat up, stained, white logo tee shirt (however, his wife was well dressed). The young couples on the other side were all dressed up and looked to be celebrating something special. Definitely a mixed bag of those that read the website and those that just showed up. The food was good, but exceptional? I think not. I had the Pescatarian, and my husband had the Omnivore. We had dined a few months prior at a Michelan Star restaurant in Amsterdam that was half the price, outstanding food, and an excellent waiter (it was also a prix-fixe tasting menu). Lastly, the wait staff was "good" but not great, either. Our waitress seemed very robotic and did not make us feel special. (However, we did leave a very generous tip). With prices that high (higher now) and the 5-star reviews, I would expect every wait person to make each patron feel like royalty. I guess we are old school, but we just weren't impressed and were mildly disappointed. We've never been huge Canlis fans (always preferred Cafe Juanita), but for the price and our experience this time, we would definitely choose Canlis next time.
