If you walk fast and glancing often at your phone and not paying attention to the surrounding, then you're going to miss "JUN", a Chinese Restaurant hidden in a plain red brick building. Surprisingly different world found inside the restaurant: simple but cozy, uniquely mixed between Western and classic Chinese warm decorations. The host and server staffs are prompt and attentive. On the day we visited, look like the owner was onsite greeting the guests and also helping the cook and service staffs. The kitchen is wide opened and fully visible (you can actually see the chef cooking your food!). Our group's food came out promptly, hot (heat) and hot (spicy) just the way we like it. The head chef in red shirt cooked our food precisely right: the shrimps were still crunch and the beef melted and disappeared in mouth while we were chewing; none of our dishes were greasy. Oh, and they do have vegetarian dishes too. 'So glad that we've discovered this hidden gem in the middle of nowhere Minneapolis! Lastly, yes, there's a full bar!!! Five stars for inside soft relaxing ambiance, food and service. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Dan Dan Noodles
We stopped at JUN for a Friday night dinner and really enjoyed it. We ate the following: -Pan fried pot stickers—phenomenal, excellent filling -Egg rolls—below average, would not order again -Sesame chicken-crispy and tasty, my wife love it -Spicy chicken—amazing! The garlic and spice flavor mixed in with the crispy chicken was phenomenal. I would order this any day if the week! We were too full for desserts. The server was friendly and attentive. Jun would be a great for high quality takeout or a casual dinner. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Really nice service. Good portions, the food was really good, the drink not so much. It was a bit stronger than tasty. The restaurant has very calm and welcoming vibes. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes Szechuan Dumplings

Had a fantastic dinner at the bar. The staff gave great recommendations on some items I hadn’t considered, and they were excellent. Great service. The staff was also very professional with a guest upset that there was automatic gratuity with his large party (it was posted, and frankly, this guy was just cheap, and it’s why restaurants have this policy). Excellent service, food, and atmosphere. Try the egg rolls and double cooked pork Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Egg Rolls

The staff was super nice, as was the owner. They’re able to sub the crispy tofu (cooked perfectly!!) in their meat based meals which is super nice! I had the crispy tofu in General Tao’s sauce and it was amazing! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

recently had the pleasure of dining at Jun, and I can confidently say that it was a great experience. Jun is a hidden gem tucked away in the warehouse district. When we walked in  we were warmly greeted by our waiter. He whisked us into a vibrant and cozy atmosphere. He produced drinks as if from thin air, and had them in our hands in moments. The meal was very good.  If you enjoy bold, intense flavors and a touch of heat, you should eat here.  I thought the dumplings were noteworthy. They were freshly made and the sauce was very good. While the food was good, the service was even better. Our waiter was knowledgeable, attentive, and eager to provide recommendations. This made the dining experience even more relaxing and enjoyable. My companion loved the walnut shrimp he suggested. Thank you to the chefs at Jun and the mustached waiter for a wonderful evening. Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
The entire staff was taking shots continually throughout the night. My food was brought out within five minutes. The staff then proceeded to take shots and forget about it the order of the person I was with. The kitchen is an open concept so we saw our food sitting under the heat lamp and we’re curious to see how long it would take. They didn’t take it out to us for about 20 minutes then when she dropped it off, she told us that the kitchen takes a long time with the duck. There was also a man sweeping dust into my shoes intentionally, while we saw napkins and straws all over the floor, and none of the tables were turned from their last guests. I assumed we must have come in right before close and then I checked their hours and they were open for another hour and a half. We were both astonished and left, saying it was the worst experience in a restaurant we had ever had. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100 Food: 3 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

Unfortunately does not live up to the hype. Food was ok but not impressive. The drink I got tasted like it was made with shitty vodka. with the food it felt like they were trying to appeal to the Minnesota palate in a way that I imagine would leave both of their potential audiences somewhat disappointed (people looking for authentic Szechuan food vs Minnesotans who can’t handle spice). I got the mapo tofu and it was the most mild mapo tofu I’ve ever had. It definitely wasn’t the worst mapo I’ve had, but it was noticably mild compared to other authentic mapo tofu I’ve had. It also was just too expensive for the quality of the food and drink. I got 1 entree and 1 drink and ended up paying around $50 after tip and everything. It also seems like they are majorly short staffed to the point that it affected our service. We got there and the people in front of us were seated immediately, but we were told there was a 30 minute wait but could sit at the bar. The people who came in after us were also seated immediately (it’s possible they had a reservation but we opted not to make a reservation because of how much open availability they had on their website). Next to the bar were MANY open tables. The bartender was kind enough to seat us at one of those tables but it still took about 25 minutes after being seated to have someone take our drink order. I don’t blame the server we had at all, I know they had a lot of tables and were doing their best. I blame the restaurant for seemingly not properly staffing their restaurant. It seemed like there were only two servers for the entire restaurant. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–50 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 2
