- EEmmittOrange County •7 reviews4.0Dined 4 days agoTerrific date night at JULII. Although I have been to her sister-restaurant Melina (which is amazing) many times, this was my first experience here (per friend's recommendation). Ambience is modern, simple yet fascinating, and not "over the top". The menu is fantastic - so many rich choices. The service was professional, timely, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Drinks were on point and wine pairings were perfect. Food was good - a little too much salt on the scallops/risotto ... and the "special" branzino, while cooked perfectly, had too much butter and was not accompanied by substantive greens as described (or paired). I will definitely come back. Lots more to explore and appreciate. Thank you.More infoJuliiPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• North Bethesda•4.7
