We love J-Don :) I definitely eat here once a week. The food is always on point and to a certain standard. You get lots of food for the price associated and it's always delicious. Highlight recommend trying!

I’ve been eating here for 15+ years, my family thoroughly enjoys it here also. It’s my go to fast food if I’m in a rush. It’s my go to lunch meal in Vernon. It’s my go to comfort meal that doesn’t break the bank. Someone above commented on price and portion size being off, I’d have to strongly disagree. This is the same price as a meal at any fast food joint and is actually a quality meal you’d probably not be able to make as good at home if you tried like 30+ times. My kids have ate here since they were knee high to a grasshopper and will continue to eat here long after I’m gone, given they are still rocking out. There’s not a soul who ate here back 10 years ago though that doesn’t greatly miss the Dragon Rolls….. just saying…. :D but we still love you.

Excellent food and well worth going downtown and finding parking. There are a couple quiet streets in the area you can park and not have to go too far!
The food was made fresh and had a variety of items to choose from!
Here is the food we ordered and the menu has other items.
We ordered some to go to take home and was still good when we got home.

Nice tofu don
Their chicken is juicy and delicious
Place was great! I had the tofu bowl and while the ginger taste was great and the horseradish went well, it was not as flavourful as expected. But the friends I came here with enjoyed the house special a lot!
If you want authentic homemade quality, this is it. The chicken Don from here is the best tasting thing that I've ever had. The prices are a little high and the portions are a little on the small side but the food is delicious. Compliments to the chef and the friendly staff.
Great food, at a decent price. Will definitely come here again!!
Quick, tasty and offer Styrofoam and plastic free take-out packaging. 👌
Restaurantji Recommends
This place has been our go to for over 25 years.
Wonderful place to eat or get take out. The staff are kind and caring. Always a fantastic experience when we eat here.
Vegetarian options: The veggie don is a good option.
Kid-friendliness: They offer half sizes for kids at reasonable prices.

The chicken in their chicken don is what I hope for whenever I order chicken dishes in other restaurants, but nobody does it like J-Don. Fantastic.

J-DON was a formative experience for me. When I tried their curry for the first time when I was 12 back in 2003 I legit nearly cried because it was just so darn good!! I will never forget that day because that is the day Japanese curry became my absolute favourite food!
The way their curry tastes, how the potato perfectly melts in your mouth is still the same today as it was back then. It's a tasty mild curry that leaves you full and satisfied. It also comes with a little side of refreshing cool noodle salad.
I remember one year during a Japanese Film Festival they ran a special sake tasting event. My friend and I were being cheeky little brats and wanted to come inside but we were shooed out, haha. I have many good memories of this place. Definitely give them a try!
