I'm not sure from your writing whether the error is being generated by the client or the REST service. Also, does your REST service ever successfully return JSON (and it's just this client with the trouble) or is it always failing (indicating the problem is with the service)? If the service is the problem, point #10 here: http://www.jroller.com/gmazza/entry/jersey_samples_on_cxf notes that you'll need to add in a JSON provider and dependency as shown, else it won't know how to process JSON. That might be the issue.
