Jula’s on the Potomac

How could I forget to write a review about Jula's on the Potomac? I had it saved as a spot to try in the spring or summer to enjoy the outdoor space, but I happened to be in the area and decided to stop by for some bar bites on a Saturday afternoon. Even at 3 PM, the bartenders were amazing--attentive, friendly, and welcoming. The bar menu was limited, but everything I tried was delicious. The mushroom truffle flatbread pizza was packed with flavor, and the crab dip was a solid choice. What I loved most...Their special cocktails came with a side of French fries--now that is a perfect pairing. I'll definitely be back when the weather warms up to take advantage of the outdoor seating. If you're in the area, don't hesitate to stop by--whether for drinks, bites, or just the great atmosphere!

Pretty but dim. Jula's is on the 4th floor of an office building. Cool vibe, very loud, straight outta 1997. Chairs are padded rolling chairs that are too low for comfort and tables have you sitting a fair distance from your companion. Server took our order on a device and seemed unable to explain menu items. $18 cocktail tasted like juice with a splash of vodka. Burrata app was good, but 2 pieces of bread with 4 pieces of cheese was odd, as was the orange peel adornment. But then, the entree. I had the "cheese stuffed" pasta. One bite and it was sweet. SWEET sweet. In a garlic cream sauce apparently with micro greens. It was the worst pasta entree I've tried. Server reappeared after my husband had finished his meal. At that point we were all set and cashed out.

Jula's was in her bookmarks so Jula's it is. I've been once before and I don't know why I didn't drop a review given how dope this place is. Located in "North Old Town" on the top floor of an office building that sits on the Potomac River, this converted café is now a super nice restaurant that could easily be transformed to upscale by simply adding white linen table clothes!! Yep, as easy as that..LOL! The water views cannot be beat, and they have ample outdoor seating for the warmer days. The brunch menu is awesome. She went for the chicken and waffles and I chose the loaded lobster omelet. I'm not a huge omelet fan but this one was OUTSTANDING. Her waffles were hot and fluffy and although the chicken was cooked perfect, it needed a little salt. That's the hard thing about chicken breast. They may want to offer wings to give the buyers a choice. Just a thought! The deviled eggs were good not great, I'd get them again, her..nah..lol!Our server was engaging and responsive. The dinner menu looks pretty dam* good also, so good, we may have to come back this weekend to check it out! Jula's is a place that sits all alone, so if you don't know, you don't know... Now you know!!

Now, this is a story all about how my life got flipped, and turned upside down. I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there. I'll tell you how I became a fan of this place right here. (Yeah, yeah I put a spin on it.) First, I've wanted to try this forever, since it opened in June of 2023, I'm kicking myself right now knowing I've been missing out. Ambiance: SEXY, SEXY, SEXY - minimalist vibes but sleek. Can't wait to dress up and come back for dinner! Views are everything! Stunning! I love water even our lil ole dirty Potomac. Service: Mike was awesome, front desk crew nice and attentive.Let's Get Into It! Brunch, here we go! Appetizer:Deviled Eggs - Met expectations, pretty good! Main Entree's: Chicken and Waffle - Exceeded expectations, after two bites I was full but somehow I ate most of my meal. Shrugs. Lobster Omelette: Delicious, exceeded expectations! Peach Bellini- Great! Coffee - PERFECT!Do you need to come try this place out? YES! Such a VIBE!

I really loved this restaurant that I took my good friend to for his birthday. The service was amazing and the food was delicious. The views are spectacular, the restaurant is clean, and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. I loved my brie and mushroom flatbread. And my friend loved his cod fish tacos. They were huge. We couldn't finish all the food so I took half of the flatbread home. And the bread pudding for dessert was to die for. Great experience for our first time and we definitely will be back!

There's somes street parking nearby. We had a reservation and they did take a couple minutes to seat us.We ordered the Tiramisu Espresso Martini which really good. It came with a lady finger that you could dip in it. We then ordered the Bottle Mimosa to share. For our food, we ordered the Burrata, Deviled Eggs and Housemade Biscuits. Loved the burrata and the Deviled Eggs. I'm not usually one to order biscuits but the jam and butter that came with it was delicious and tasted good with the burrata as well.For our mains, I ordered the Brunch Burger and my husband ordered the Lobster Omelete. Recommend both. We loved everything we had. Service was great until the end where we had trouble finding our server for for more water and the check. Overall a good time, outside looked like nice to sit when it's nice outside. Would likely come back to try other drinks and food.

We met for a birthday brunch. The restaurant and view were both clear and beautiful. Our friends arrived before we did, so we arrived in time to order brunch and mimosas. The restaurant menu was plentiful and varied. The service was cheerful and quick. We greatly enjoyed our time here.

Scenic restaurant hidden on the top floor of an office building that overlooks the PotomacSlightly upscale, and prices are highThe space, food menu, and drink menu are all huge. The space has a ton of seating in both the bar and dining area. The menu is primarily seafood oriented, but there are plenty of other options as well I came here with my GF and we each got a cocktail, a bread basket appetizer, and an entree (shrimp & grits for me and chicken Milanese for her). All of our food was very tasty, and our drinks were solid as wellEveryone that we interacted with was very friendly and hospitableThey do give you a card at the end of your visit to rate the place on google, which explains the absurdly high rating there

We checked out Sunday brunch and everything was amazing from start to finish! Our server was Jeremy and the staff were great. Drinks:Empress 75Lavender Martini Food items reviewed:Oysters Chicken & Waffles French Toast Bread Pudding The rooftop has an amazing view! Parking is underneath the building and reasonable prices. I can't wait to host an event there.

This place was recommended by a local, both for the food and the location on the water, so we decided to give it a try. It's a little odd that it's in an office building, but you quickly forget that once you enter the space.We were taken back to our table on the patio by a friendly young man who shared the history of the restaurant. He was just the first of the incredibly friendly staff members we encountered at Jula's, including our server, Jeremy (but more on him later).We sat on the patio which has beautiful views of the river and DC, in the distance. The menu has a lot of amazing choices, but my daughter loves deviled eggs, so we started there - a great choice! I went for the Crab Benedict as my entree and loved it. The others in the group had the chicken & waffles, Chesapeake and Croque Madame and everyone truly enjoyed their meals.The experience was topped off by the outstanding service from Jeremy. I think I can honestly say that he was one of the most enjoyable servers I have ever had. He was super friendly, very knowledgeable about the menu and a had great sense of humor. Toward the end of the meal, we were asking him for recommendations of things to see and do in Alexandria since we had never been there before. He gave us a bunch of ideas, and then came back a few minutes later with a handwritten list of suggestions! Simply amazing service...and just a good dude!
