Juniper Table

So this is not a sit down table service kind of place. This is a step above Starbucks where you stand in line to order kind of place. That being said, they have a lovely outdoor patio and the Rowan is a beautiful hotel. Menu is limited...better than Starbucks, not as good as Pinocchio's down the street.

Pros and cons The food was actually surprisingly delicious. We got the panzanella salad, a schroom pizza, and pepperoni pizza. The shroom pizza especially had this unique flavor that was really good. What I have problems with is that I think their menu is quite inaccurate. The panzanella salad was supposed to have heirloom tomatoes. I found chopped cherry tomatoes in half. The shroom pizza was supposed to have oyster mushrooms. I only saw crimini. Don’t misadvertise. (Unfortunately I didn’t get a photo of the salad.)

Yum! Needed something quick and light for lunch and the sous vide turkey was delicious! Tender and juicy meat complemented by fascinating thick-cut potato wedge fries were the perfect meal for a weekday afternoon! I’m still baffled by how they cut the potatoes, but they were curvy wedges that were thinner than traditional wedges but thicker than fries. This is a quick-service restaurant where you order and then sit, but the service was warm and attentive. The atmosphere is great being in the lobby of the cool Rowan hotel with outdoor seating in the courtyard facing Palm canyon and the Starbucks reserve. Can’t wait to try some of their other offerings on future visits.
