still processing…

emotions were running high Monday night, to say the least 

we tried our best to thank everyone who has been part of this journey •our team •our families •our city ❤️

like we said that night, Houston is a city built on HOPE and DREAMS. We’re grateful to be a small part of it and to help show that there is room for everyone at the table.

thank you for believing in us, supporting us, and growing alongside us. 🤘🏽

JŪN is here… and it’s time to reflect on what it all means! 

We wanted to name the restaurant JŪN to honor the special women in our lives. JŪN is the birth month of our very own @chefevelyngarcia her mom and @chefhenrylu sister! All these women have played such a big part in our lives. They are the reason why we have a restaurant today!

We always described JŪN as a novel and as each year passes a new chapter begins. Our first year we explored our family roots & upbringing, an immigrants story and how it all blends together to be the America we understand it as. Our food explores all those stories and blurring boundaries and blending both our culture together. You ask us what JUN is, it’s our American food. 

Through our unwavering commitment to our craft, we were gifted with a platform that reaches beyond this great city of Houston. We opened up Third Place to share our space with chefs, artist & makers so that they can have a home away from home. In this chapter of JŪN, we are so proud of the community we created with Third Place! This year has been the year of sharing Houston story with the world! The best way to celebrate is with your community! 

Special happy birthday to Chef Evelyn Garcia! One of the most fearless human beings we know. She fights for what she believes in and doesn’t allow anyone to get in her way. She’s a champion and voice for people who needs it and doesn’t shy away from it. A board member of @ihwsh_tx and @nokidhungryhou she fights these battles in and out the kitchen! She’s made a name for herself in an industry that wasn’t the kindest to women chefs. She’s created an environment for our team to grow and flourish.  She is a bad ass and we love her 🫶

We never expect to be recognized for the things we do! 

It’s such an honor to be seen & heard by our peers, mentors, friends and community. 
There are so many beautiful and immensely talented human beings here in Texas with countless stories that need to be told. 
With the creation of Third Place sharing those stories in our space has been the most rewarding experience for us. That in itself has grown into something bigger than we could have ever imagined ❤️ 

JŪN & Third Place will always be a safe space that nurtures growth, expression, & creativity. We draw inspiration from our community, and try to work closely with local farmers, makers, artists, chefs and more. 

Our goal has always been to give the best experience to our guest and our team. We stand by everything we do and are bless we can do it everyday. 

Thank you Houston 🙏 for trusting & supporting us! 

Thank you @beardfoundation for nominating us to be a 2026 finalist … FINALIST 🤯🥹
