Cafe Juanita provides an elegant dining atmosphere. Our attire guidance is that you enjoy dressing up for a special evening out in our scent-neutral environment. Jackets are not required. We do ask that guests please refrain from wearing athletic wear, leisure attire, and strong perfume and cologne.
Guests are welcome to bring in personal wine for a corkage fee of $50 per 750 ml bottle, with a limit of two 750 ml bottles per reservation, OR one magnum with a corkage fee of $100. We will respectfully decline to open bottles that are represented on our list, so we encourage guests to reach out to our team to confirm their choice of a special bottle to bring to Cafe Juanita.
If your bottle is on our list, but is a library wine with over a decade of bottle age, please reach out to our wine director to inquire if an exception can be made. For further inquiries regarding pairing synergy with our current menus, or any other questions regarding corkage, please email Wine Director Alexandra Stang at alex@cafejuanita.com.
We do not have a bar seating area, though we do have a fully stocked bar for all of our dine-in guests to enjoy. We encourage guests to arrive at their reservation time.
On rare occasions, we are able to seat walk-in guests. That said, our bookings do fill up rather quickly, and we cannot guarantee that we will have a table available for our walk-in guests.
Young guests are welcome, however we ask that a few considerations be borne in mind for parents deciding whether or not to bring their little one in. Cafe Juanita does not have a kids' menu or special amenities for children. If you are interested in including a child in your group, please call us at 425.823.1505 to go over the details you may wish to know prior to booking dinner for a party which includes children. As we serve tasting menus, please note that the average length of a dinner at Cafe Juanita exceeds 2.5 hours. Our current menus can be viewed by clicking here.
We accept the following credit cards: American Express, MasterCard, Visa. Apple Card and tap pay are also acceptable. We are essentially a cashless house, and cannot guarantee the ability to make change.
No, the tip is not included. We leave gratuity for the service team to our guests’ discretion, however there is a kitchen service fee of 5% which is distributed directly and entirely to our kitchen team.
The Chef’s Table and Private Dining events include both the 5% kitchen service fee and a 20% service fee, applied to food & beverage purchases only, distributed entirely to the employees providing service for the event.
Our parking lot is valet-only, with a charge of $10 per car. For your convenience, we add the charge for the valet to the bill at the end of the evening. If you would prefer not to partake of our valet service, there is a street parking available each evening.
