"Located near the end of a busy stretch of South Congress, June’s is an effortlessly cool all-day bistro and wine bar. The dining room is bright and airy—accented with a long marble bar, checkered tile floors, and a vintage jukebox—while the outside feels like a Parisian sidewalk cafe, where you can enjoy a long, drawn-out conversation with your dog about what you’re going to order. The menu veers New American with European influences, so you’ll find dishes like bone marrow bolognese and steak au poivre, right alongside one of the best fried chicken sandwiches in town. But June’s is, first and foremost, a wine bar, so expect lots of excellent wine available by the bottle or by the glass. " - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
