Juliet Ristorante, the midcentury modern Italian eatery on Barton Springs Road, will close Monday, June 5 — but only temporarily. The restaurant, which opened to much fanfare almost two years ago, has announced that it will close for a redesign of the space and the concept.
The restaurant will reopen as Juliet Italian Kitchen, switching its focus from modern Italian to familiar "red-sauce" Italian fare. "At Juliet Italian Kitchen, we will focus on Italian American food inspired by the beloved classic red-sauce restaurants found throughout the country while also offering family-style meals," executive chef Jacob Weaver says in a release.
