Welcome to Juniper At The Vanderbilt

“ A beautiful restaurant under the 'Calissa' umbrella of restaurants from the Hamptons, we celebrated my girlfriend's birthday. They didn't know, we didn't tell them. We had a quiet dinner. The food was extraordinary, even for LI Restaurant Week. Good serving size. The drinks were top notch. I recommend the Harvest Old Fashioned and the Basil Bomb. The Salad and Butternut Squash Soup were amazing, the soup was creamy and fresh, not too sweet. The dinner was consistently good. The fish was fresh and the Gnocchi was to die for. We closed the dinner out with Lemon Cheesecake and it was creamy, cold, smooth and soothing. We left pretty full. Good prices and great service, Amanda smiled the whole time. Very professional and down to Earth. The hostess was great too. Great experience, we will return! Go and tell em Barsnobs sent ya! ”

“ Excellent staff, amazing food and drinks. Very beautiful modern interior. I absolutely love the tall windows and the bathroom is drop dead gorgeous. Well maintained and very professional. 1000/10 ”

“ I hosted my baby shower at this venue and the service was incredible. I worked with Tim Kasminoff and he was so accommodating and professional. We hosted in one of the rooms, with about 50 guests. It’s a beautiful and modern venue. Tim was super accommodating in giving us more time to decorate. He was also very accommodating on customizing the menu - we got chicken and waffles for one of the entrees and it was amazing. The food quantity was way more than I expected and all the guests were so content. The burrata and bread as well as the Cobb salad was my absolute favorite. The guests raved about the steak and potatoes. And the panacotta dessert was delicious! I loved the warm lighting of the venue. It created a very warm and cozy atmosphere. I highly recommend working with Tim for your future events at the Juniper. ”

“ Stopped by yesterday evening for an early dinner with my family and had such a great experience. The restaurant is beautiful, with a charming patio out back that overlooks the pool—it honestly gives off vacation vibes. The food was fantastic from start to finish—every dish we ordered, from appetizers to entrées, was full of flavor. Cocktails were strong and delicious too. Our server was a total gem—friendly, attentive, and offered really thoughtful recommendations. Can’t wait to come back! ”

“ First time here and enjoyed a lovely dinner with my family. The menu was thin so do check it before deciding to dine. The photos and reviews are what lured me here. I usually associate high end pricing and mediocre food at Hotel restaurants but this was a delight. While still pricey, it was indeed worth it. The restaurant shares a lobby with the hotel and apartment rentals here. Luxury living indeed. The restaurant did their best to accommodate my seating request which I'm very appreciative. Given the Pandemic, I've been selective with indoor dining especially if the tables are too close together. This space had high ceilings and a lovely ambiance. I would totally return to try the brunch as that menu looks really appetizing. This visit, the big hit was the Spanish Branzino and the Lobster Spaghetti. Desserts were all great choices, think Meyer lemon custard, chocolate chip cookie in a skillet topped with ice cream and an adult version of a brownie sundae. May 2022. ”

“ Reservations were a breeze, even for last-minute plans. Upon arrival, there was plenty of parking, and the restaurant was nestled inside an apartment building. The décor was contemporary, cozy, and clean. The service was friendly; however, one of the older waitstaff was displaying bullying behavior toward a younger staff member, which was uncomfortable to witness. Despite that, the food was lovely. My steak and fried eggs were well done, though I had asked for medium. The flavor of the steak was lightly seasoned, which paired nicely with the provided sauce that had a pleasant acidity. The potatoes were nicely seasoned, the artichoke dip was delicious, and the wild mushroom flatbread was finger-licking good. The coffee was excellent, and the spicy lavender margarita offered a fun twist with just the right hint of heat. The waffles, however, were the weakest part of the meal—dense and doughy, with a biscuit-like texture—so we opted for potatoes instead. The flavor and texture of the chicken was beautifully done. I appreciated the calm ambiance, and the noise level was perfect for conversation, blending well with the soft musical tones throughout the establishment. ”

“ I gave Juniper a try for restaurant week & was so pleased. The decor & ambiance was beautiful. The waiter was friendly & knowledgeable about the menu. The food was very good. We had pear salad & mushroom Flatbread for appetizers, then short rib pappardelle & red snapper for our entrees. Delicious! ”

“ As you can see, we tried multiple dishes. My favorite was the red snapper which was a special on that particular day. No one had anything negative to say about their food. Only issue was the need to change an order because the chef didn't have enough food to fulfill all the requests. The change was just as good. They even threw in complimentary side orders for the inconvenience. Truly appreciative. We will definitely visit again. ”
