Yeah the times I have been I have loved it. I hear mixed reviews about it now, some people say they weren't impressed at all, but some people are stupid too.

Well it makes you more of a food connoisseur on this board if you hate on every place ever mentioned. Duh.

Well they were struggling for a while. Can't remember exactly what was going on, but it wasn't just people on this board knocking them, the BR community was knocking them. Their food and service was inconsistent. It used to be my parent's favorite and they quit going for a while as well, but they've started going back and said it's become more consistent.
They also had a unique clientele that some folks weren't comfortable with.

Everytime I eat there, which is two, three times a year, I am always underwhelmed. I'd rather eat at Mansur's.

My objection to Jubans is not about the food, but rather that two littles shits threw thier mother in the path of the speeding bus after thier father died.

Do what now?


And I get the Two Birds, which used to be the "Trois Oiseaux" (3 birds). I guess they lost their ostrich supplier.

They threw her out of the business after the dad croaked. It was her idea in the first damned place. I am one of the original employees that worked there.
