Four of us had a wonderful meal at JuJu last evening. We shared everything. Standouts were the Short Rib Wontons, the Mongolian Beef, the Drunken Noodles, the Fried Chicken Buns, and the Brussels. Great cocktails, too! Our server, Abby, was fantastic.

Waitress was helpful making decisions. We ordered 3 cocktails and a beer, a starter, noodle, poke, and magnolia beef. Everything was amazing. My only regret was we didn't have room for dessert.

Great Asian fusion food! Octopus was outstanding as was the charred broccoli and the bao doughnut dessert! Unique combinations, great seasoning and fresh ingredients. Noise level is a little high.

The beef short rib wontons are always our favorite! The hanger steak is delicious and we found a new favorite, the soy braised lamb. Definitely looking forward to trying the Mongolian beef next time. The food is always amazing and the service is great. We love the tapas style food service. Excellent every time!
