Absolutely loved this restaurant! This is a new favorite. The menu is clearly marked gluten free, you can get a lot of options and try them all. I will say the online menu is not completely up to date on what’s gluten free, but only about two items. (The fried oysters are no longer gluten free.) everything we had was delicious, and the cocktails were fun too. It is loud inside but the service was great and it was a fun time. The wait staff was knowledge about gluten free items and even announced “gluten free” or “celiac safe” with each dish brought out. I love when they verify it’s safe to eat!

If you’re in Durham, Juju Durham is absolutely worth a visit.
The meal was fantastic from start to finish. The pork and chive dumplings, oysters on the half shell (togarashi lemon, Asian pear mignonette), and especially the roasted bone marrow were the clear standouts—each packed with flavor and beautifully executed.
The pork belly buns were soft and indulgent, the drunken noodles with NC shrimp had great depth and heat, and the sesame-crusted ahi tuna was fresh, light, and well-balanced. The octopus was nicely charred but needed more sauce.
Overall, a creative, flavor-forward menu done right. I’ll definitely be back for the dumplings, oysters, and that unforgettable bone marrow. -
This place is insane!! We had the best food and each dish was surprisingly better and better.
We ordered rangoons , with pork belly bao buns, and bone marrow. I wasn’t so super impressed with the bone marrow however the other apps were great. The lamb chop was seasoned so nicely and the bok Choy had such great flavor with a bit of spice.
Can’t wait to come back and try more off the menu -
Can’t say the food is the best I’ve tried given the price. Pork bun’s bun is very fluffy but the pork itself is a bit dry. The peanut sauce for the veggie roll is simply too sweet. The octopus dish is the best among what we’ve ordered and it’s a shame there’re only 2 pieces of octopus legs.The service and the atmosphere are really nice though.

Really tasty Asian fusion. Dishes are impressive, small bites that are great for sharing. Came here with a group and had a great time. Prices are reasonable for the quality that you get, and cocktails are rather unique. Definitely would recommend for a nicer occasion.
