JuXi (pronounced juicy/joo-see) is a Cantonese-inspired restaurant in the heart of Alameda, named after the parents of our chef and owner. Our food represents a new generation of Cantonese+American cooking, rooted in the flavors we grew up with and shaped by our lives in Alameda. Some dishes stay close to tradition, while others draw inspiration from the Bay Area's diverse food culture. Our dishes lean on California's seasons and the local farms and producers we're lucky to collaborate with. Community means a lot to us, and we hope to celebrate the people, culture, and spirit of Alameda and the Bay Area through every meal. We strive to honor our heritage in thoughtful, unexpected ways—to bring new to old. We believe dining is about more than food and beverage—it's an experience. We've created a warm, lively space where old-school hospitality meets contemporary dining.
