    We absolutely LOVED our experience at Giulietta. My fiancé and I went for my birthday and sat at the bar. Everything was beautiful and TJ the bartender was super knowledgeable and so fun! He helped us with cocktail & wine choices and let us know all of his favourite things on the menu. He also went above and beyond when I was floored by the olive oil - he got the bottle from the kitchen so I could take a picture and find it for home! We had the burrata & fired artichoke to start (do not miss the burrata!!), the lobster risotto (one of the best I’ve had) the chestnut ravioli and Giulietta pizza - all fab! Finished off with the Torta Della Nonna. We’ll be back!

    Have wanted to try this restaurant for a long time. Each dish was beautifully presented, showcasing a variety of flavors, colors, and textures. Surprisingly, the dishes incorporated a lot of Asian flavors paired with French techniques. Most of the dishes were excellent and unique, though there were a couple of misses. The service was good, with attentive staff. The ambiance was decent and comfortable, not suffocating or uncomfortable at all. Overall, I enjoyed my time and dinner here.

    My third dinner at a Chef Lee restaurant. The Slaw continues to be sublime. Wasn't so enamoured with the Spring Rolls or Chicken curry... but Asian Beef rescued the meal. Best in a group of 4-6 so you can taste more dishes.
