Excellent Service by Jay Excellent Food The Chicago Dogs were to Die For. They even had RC Cola. Good portions for a good price. I had ro turn around and come back. I am so glad I did. Yum Yum.

The only way to be disappointed by Mr. J's is to not go there. My partner and I are currently eating our way through the menu so we've tried a fair amount of the offerings. Everything we've tried has been flavorful and tasty! The portion size is super fair for the price and I usually walk away with at least leftovers for another meal, if not two. Some of my favorites have been the Italian beef, anything with the jerk chicken, and the WINGS. Truly the wings are a star in themselves. They are crispy and the meat literally falls off the bones. I am not usually one to get bone-in wings but I can't resist these! Definitely try them. Mr. J's service is impeccable and the folks working there are super kind. We get our food pretty quick even when they are busy!

Good selection/decent prices- tried jerk tacos, catfish, gym show sandwich(totally new to me me) all were decent. Friendly staff.

I've been here several times in the last two months and every time the food is fantastic! The owner is super nice and everyone working there is friendly. Have tried at least 12 different foods and all of them delivered the flavor. Definitely recommend, try everything!

Lots of skin no fish inside ... (Whiting) That's all I wanted beside the lemon pepper and cheese sauce I paid extra for and didn't get. Wings were good. Tiny little shrimp for 1.65 each...
