Where to begin? This restaurant has blown me away. From the moment I walked in, I sensed that I was welcomed into someone's home. The service throughout the evening stayed that way & the staff at this local restaurant were nothing but knowledgeable & courteous from start to finish. As someone who has gone to many of our local businesses throughout the years, very few captured the essence of service the way that this restaurant did.
I would strongly recommend trying their $75 tasting menu & as it gives you a good variety of land & sea. Each preparation was thoroughly thought out & used very fresh ingredients. Our attentive wait staff guided us from our first bite to our our sweet bite, without ever feeling like they were imposing themselves upon us.
We had a scallop crude to start, a Filipino octopus peanut butter dish as our second, followed by a creamy mushroom pasta dish before finishing with a beautiful short rib that was tender to the bite. For dessert, an innovative churro dish topped with their homemade ube ice cream. What a delight!
All the while, the ambience was that of a'90s r&b club, mixed with a upscale restaurant vibe.
I would not hesitate to come again & bring my family & friends along for the ride. For the next experience, I will be definitely trying their full tasting menu of six courses.
Thanks again Junjun!

We had such an incredible experience here! It's Filipino cuisine with a modern twist & the chef truly outdid himself. Every dish we tried (yes, we tried almost everything on the menu) was even better than the last. The flavors were bold & creative. The cocktails were just as impressive, perfectly crafted to match the food. Service was top notch the entire team was warm & attentive & our waitress was so sweet & made us feel right at home. Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for a memorable dining experience!

Went here for a friends bachelorette in April. The staff could not have created a better environment for us! From making accommodations for allergies to providing some free shots, we were well taken care of. Not to mention every dish we had was incredible. I would recommend this to any visitor or local!

Brunch was amazing! It was my first time trying Junjun & it was definitely not the last time. Filipino cuisine is really underrated & they did an amazing job in combing the traditional flavors & dishes with a new/modern twist. We also talked to one of the owners & it was so interesting to hear about some dishes & story behind. Would definitely recommend & will come back to try their dinner ☺?

Une cuisine des philippines modernisée & créative. Les cocktails sont savoureux & tous les plats sont bien équilibrés. Mention spéciale aux sauces de chaque plat ! Coup de coeur pour le Chou Nilaga Sa Micho & les pâtes Bisque Palabok. Je vous recommande la place

The tasting menu was incredible, my dad & I absolutely adored the food, every dish was a hit, they were perfectly balanced & flavourful. The owner was so friendly & kind as well as the rest of the staff. The vibes were immaculate as well great music, nice decor & great people. We had an amazing evening there & I cannot recommend it enough. Worth every penny.

As someone who's been to this restaurant over 5+ times, I can tell you each experience has been better than the other. The kindest & most welcoming staff I've experienced hands down. The owner, Rey, makes sure that every client is tended to & satisfied with their overall experience. Initially, I had never considered Filipino cuisine since there aren't too many spots in Montreal. The aesthetic of the restaurant is what initially reeled me in, but the staff, service & food is what got me to come back time after time. Heads up for those who have never tried Filipino cuisine, most dishes are on the sweeter side & mildly spicy! (If you don't like the spice, tell them beforehand so they can modify some of their sauces for you, they're super accommodating!). If it's your first time, I highly recommend their tasting menu to be able to discover the different items on the menu! If not, the octopus (pugita kare kare), shrimp bisque & smoked mackarel (kinilaw) have been my go to-s! The drinks are always tasty & aesthetically pleasing. Each dish is always thoroughly explained & they all have their own unique backstory. One thing I really appreciate, they change the cutlery & plates after every service! You can tell that they really care about their customers. They always keep an open mind & want feedback from their clients as they change their menu items from time to time as the season changes! I 100% recommend JunJun & I will keep coming back! Thank you guys for such a great time!! :)

This venue is elevating the fine dining Filipino restaurant to an incredible culinary experience ❤?❤? The decor is gorgeous on the inside & the host is super nice & friendly 😇😇 We started with mocktails & wine & the moved onto Tinapay - incredible delicious bread with the best ube butter ever ❤?❤? Trust me, it's the best salted bread you've ever eaten 🎉🎉The host was super kind to explain the history behind each dish we ordered & it was a delight listening to him 😇😇 We then moved onto the main dish - Bisque Palabok for me & Short Ribs Pares for my partner & my goodness, each bite was beyond exquisite & made with so much attention to taste & detail that we didn't want the savory bites to end ❤?❤? Highly recommend the homemade pasta & particularly with the bisque ❤?❤? For dessert we had this incredible bread soaked in maple topped with cheddar & truly a gourmet's delight ❤?❤? Although we ordered from à la carte menu, we cannot wait to come back & try the Tasting Menu 😇😇 Highly recommend this 11/10 restaurant to anyone who wants to enjoy a night out with a date, family, & friends as the host, food & service are fantastic 🎉🎉

Great food, great service. Recommend getting as many plates as possible here & sharing to get the full experience.
Rebecca
An absolute hidden gem in Montreal!! From the food, to the drinks, to the vibe… everything was impeccable, especially the service/hospitality.
If you're looking for elevated filipino food, this place will certainly hit the spot. I cannot recommend this place enough.

I've postponed writing this review because I've never experienced such appalling restaurant service before.
My sister & I chose this establishment to celebrate New Year's Eve with their advertised 6-course + dessert tasting menu. We arrived punctually for our reservation near opening time, & were excited by the positive reviews we'd heard-which only amplified our ultimate disappointment.
The ambiance was admittedly pleasant. The place had dim lighting & tasteful decorations, which created an intimate atmosphere perfect for a special occasion.
Our initial service was promising. Our waiter was exceptional & was the true highlight of our evening. He graciously accommodated our request for non-alcoholic versions of their cocktails & answered our questions about the menu diligently. Both he & who appeared to be the manager would present each course with detailed descriptions, which we appreciated as newcomers to Filipino cuisine.
However, the pacing was problematic. Most of the time, we found ourselves with uncomfortably long waits between courses. The evening took a shocking turn as we awaited our sixth course. The manager abruptly asked us to pay & leave because'other people were waiting.' This was bewildering since we had arrived early for our reservation & our pre-paid 6-course meal was incomplete as we hadn't received our final course & dessert.
After paying, we remained seated expecting our remaining food. Minutes later, the manager came back & asked us to free our table. Stunned & already frustrated by the excessive waiting times, we left without explaining that our meal was unfinished. Looking back at our bill, at least we were not charged for the full 6 course + dessert meal.
I would give one star, but I am giving an extra star solely because the service provided by our waiter was truly exceptional.
What should have been a special celebration became a deeply disappointing experience & a sour start to the New Year. I cannot recommend a restaurant that treats reserved guests as so, regardless of how good their food might be.

Tapas style sharing plates with plenty of flavor, good portions, refreshing tastes & a service to match the quality of the cuisine. Would absolutely recommend for a night out, prices are very fair considering the food menu! Menu changes seasonally, but we got the scallops crudo (10/10), the miso cabbage (10/10), the black garlic pasta (10/10), the shrimp pasta (10/10), & the pork belly bao buns (10/10). Also rly enjoyed the spicy margarita as a drink! Thank you JunJun 💫

I had the pleasure of dining at their sister restaurant, Junior, & have been wanting to try Junjun for some time now. I must say, the experience was incredible & truly unforgettable! Junjun exceeded all my expectations. The service was exceptional, with friendly & attentive staff. Our waitress, Margarita, was fantastic, & Manager Ray was a wonderful host, bringing both humor & warmth to the evening. He enriched our experience by sharing the story behind Junjun & its journey, adding a unique & personal touch to our visit. As a Filipino growing up in a Filipino household & enjoying traditional Filipino dishes daily, I was truly amazed by how this restaurant has elevated & modernized the cuisine. Each dish on the tasting menu showcased unique & distinct flavors, & every plate was a visual masterpiece. I'm already eagerly anticipating my next visit, especially for the unforgettable Octopus Kare Kare-it's a dish that has left a lasting impression. Maraming Salamat! Proud Filipino I highly recommend Junjun & will definitely be returning for another remarkable experience!
