" Stepping into Julian's Little Italy is like entering a slice of Italy in Dunedin. The décor is charming, reminiscent of traditional Italian pasta houses. My friends and I were seated promptly and treated to a delightful meal featuring a variety of antipasti, which I must say were fantastic. Afterward, we tucked into some delicious mushroom risotto that melted in our mouths! The portions were reasonable, and every bite echoed authenticity. The waitress was attentive, making sure our drinks were full and that we were satisfied throughout dinner. Overall, this is an experience that I believe anyone who appreciates Italian cuisine should enjoy. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so much about Julian's Little Italy, I finally decided to visit with my family last weekend. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for family dinners. I ordered the lasagna and couldn't believe how rich and flavorful it was! Each bite took me back to the heartfelt meals my grandmother used to prepare. The service was decent, albeit a bit slow, but our waitress was apologetic and very charming. I left feeling satisfied and can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve heard about Julian's Little Italy from multiple friends, so I finally stopped in with my husband. The décor gave the place a rustic Italian feel, which I loved. I ordered the chicken marsala, and while it was flavorful, it felt a bit salty for my palate. The portions were generous, and I appreciated that they offered different pasta options with low carb alternatives. As for service, it was hit-or-miss. Our waitress was friendly yet seemed overwhelmed. We left feeling satisfied enough to try it again in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I am picky about my Italian food, and I usually prefer to cook at home. However, Julian's Little Italy really surprised me! The fettuccine alfredo was creamy without being overwhelming, and the garlic bread was a delightful companion. The portions were generous, and I even took some home. The only downside was the service; it felt like we were waiting quite a while between ordering and receiving our food. Despite that, I would say it’s worth visiting for the food alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Julian's Little Italy was mostly positive. I had the margherita pizza, which was deliciously simple and fresh. The crust had a delightful crunch to it; however, I felt it was slightly overcooked in some spots. The service was friendly but a little chaotic, most likely due to the weekend crowd. I wouldn’t say I left overly full, but the portion was decent for a lunch. I would love to give it another shot to try their pasta dishes next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Julian's Little Italy is an exceptional find! Each visit reveals new flavors and dishes that are hard to forget. I particularly loved the caprese salad—it was fresh and beautifully presented. The pastas, especially the alfredo, are always cooked al dente, which is a must for me. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure that you have a pleasant dining experience, from appetizers to desserts. I recommend trying their homemade desserts; you won't regret it! The prices are very fair for the quality. It's a definite repeat for me! " (*Curated Review*)

" I am more than thrilled with my first visit to Julian's Little Italy! From the minute we walked in, we felt the Italian warmth. I ordered the seafood linguine, which was loaded with fresh shrimp and clams and tossed in a delightful lemon garlic sauce. It was the perfect balance of flavors! The service was attentive, though our drinks took a while to arrive. In terms of pricing, I considered it reasonable considering the quality of the ingredients used. I highly recommend Julian's to anyone craving authentic Italian fare. " (*Curated Review*)
