Every time I come here, I am always blown away by the quality and service. I have been coming here for many years, and the food is always amazing. We started our meal with a Cesar salad. The lettuce was crisp, and the parmesan cheese was so good. The dressing was tasty and a great ratio. For my meal, I got the lasagna, and it was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The layers were neat and had lots of filling. The sauce is always so flavorful and not watery. When I cut into it, it did not fall apart either. My husband got the sausage rigatoni, and he inhaled it, so I know it was good. I tried a bite, and it sure was. The sauce to pasta ratio was on point. I know that sometimes, when you bake pasta, it can be overcooked, but that was not the case with this one. It was a gooey and delicious, and again, the sauce was the best. We also shared a 12" pizza topped with roasted garlic, fresh basil, artichoke hearts, & prosciutto. The ingredients were so fresh. The prosciutto had a smokey flavor too. The crust was pillowy and had a nice chew and crunch. I think this might be my new favorite pizza. I just wish it had more roasted garlic. The sodas and tea was great too. I can't wait to come back and visit again. Thanks for always being amazing.

A group of us decided to visit Julian's for some pizza. It has been way too long since our last visit. In either case, we entered and were greeted by David, the manager on duty. He was behind the counter at the time, taking orders from customers. The way this works, enter, get in line, and decide what to order. Then, order, pay, get your drinks, and find an open table to dine at. You will be given a number, and the servers will bring your order or orders out to your table whenever the food is ready. To drink, we ordered Peroni, Modelo, and waters. To eat, a 16" all meat pizza. We decided to add the tip in advance and when we paid. Our food (pizza & salad) arrived, and silverware and napkins were already on the table. The salad and pizza were as good as we all remembered. The service was great, the people were nice, and the place had that nostalgia feel. I took some pictures and made sure to blur or remove faces in the event someone did not want their photo shared. I hope your experience is as good as ours.

If you are wanting to be waited on this isn’t one of those places. I don’t need to be waited on but I understand some people prefer it. Anywho: my husband brought us here for a quick Valentine's Day date. You walk in and order in the front and pay right then and there. The manager was very kind and recommended a few dishes as this was our first time. He also recommended a wine. Wonderful recommendations (I chose chicken parm and a bottle of Murphy which is a cab blend) both were delicious. My husband got a pizza that was wonderfully made as well. By the time we sat down our salads were already being brought to our table. All in all this place was clean, great priced, great food, good atmosphere, and staff was wonderful. We will be returning and bringing our kiddos as this isn’t so much of a romantic date place but more for a family vibe. Excited to go back! If you go order the wine I ordered (I attached the picture!)

The food is good. The ordering experience feels rushed. I would prefer to be able to sit down with a menu and order from the table, rather than have to look over the entire menu and order everything right when I walk in. The place is small and crowded. They could probably do better with a bigger location. I like how they prepare their Eggplant Parmigiana with thick cuts of eggplant, so it stays firm when it is cooked, not soggy or overly breaded like most places. The only other thing that was a little off putting, besides the ordering process, was their hiring sign. It's one thing to ask for experienced cashiers, but they were also asking for experienced bussers. If they're not willing to train someone for a job that should not require any experience or much training to learn how to do fairly quickly and efficiently, then it makes me wonder how they treat their employees.

One of my top 3 favorite Italian restaurants in SA. Julian's I have to say is the most consistent tasting Italian restaurant I've ever been to. They take pride in quality and consistency. The lunch specials are the best in SA and are offered everyday, which is rare to find nowadays. The lasagna and the spaghetti & meatballs are the bomb. My personal favorite is the pepperoni spaghetti. The staff is very attentive and management interacts with customers thanking them and making sure they are being properly served. A very Highly Recommend Italian Restaurant. The IG Foodies never seem to promote this restaurant, but with true customer word of mouth, who needs them anyway. As a true customer, I'm telling you this place is great!!!!

Food was fresh tasting! We tried a Stromboli & pasta. Would definitely recommend the Stromboli!!! It tasted freshly made with a perfectly golden brown crust & a good amount of meats and cheese inside. The sauce was bursting with flavor. The Stromboli was so delicious I will go back for another one & another one & another one. Pepperoni rolls are another favorite here. Some of the other dishes are ok, but not as special as the Stromboli that one is a must order! Enjoy!
