    “I visited my brother who lives locally. He took me and our other brother here because he loves this place and goes frequently. Being a wine lover, he let me pick our dinner wine. Came across an O’Shaughnessy Cabernet and had to stop right there. I know the product, had the pleasure of drinking this with Luke Russ when he did a wine dinner in northern Illinois a few years back. The owner saw the bottle on our table and introduced himself to us and we talked about Luke. Great moment. Fabulous food! Asparagus fries, halibut, deviled eggs, butter cake…. It was all fabulous! Look forward to returning!”

    “Love this place! The service is excellent and you feel like you’re in some little restaurant in Japan. The rolls are fancy, substantial and delicious. They are on the pricier side but it’s totally worth it, you don’t need too many to be satisfied. The Ginza and crunch roll are a couple of my favorites. I just wish they had more flexible hours, that’s the only reason I hadn’t come here sooner! Definitely my favorite Sushi spot in RSM now.”

    “UPDATE: I have raised to 4 stars because the service has slowly improved over the last few months. Thank you for taking note of customer input and acting on it. As of now 11Aug22, solid service, good food. Taco Tuesday is great. I will continue my regular visits and hope to give 5 stars soon.Old: The last several times we have been to TJ's we have had no service. We are coming off the course hot and thirsty, we seat ourselves and no one comes by for 15-20 mins. No water, no welcome, nothing. If you can get served the food is solid. We have enjoyed breakfast here before and it was really good. When its 90 degrees and golfers are coming off a round on the course, offer them some water would ya? I HATE giving low reviews, but until this situation is fixed it will stay this way.Edit: The director of food and drink responded almost immediately so I raised my review by a star (From 2 to 3). I will go back sometime in the next couple weeks (Anonymously of course), if the problems have been resolved, I will edit this review further.”

What a deal, how could I pass it up? So happy I came in for the first time. When I walked in, the decor was awesome. You can tell the owner is from Philly based on the wallpaper and the newspapers hanging up, which I really thought was a great touch. Service was awesome, was greeted right when I came in. I ordered the cooper classic and fries. Wow. The cheesesteak was amazing. Loaded with meat and cheese. I added grilled onions which were great. The bread was soft and warm and delicious. Part of the magic of a Philly cheesesteak is that it has to be wrapped for at least a few minutes (in my opinion) so that the hot meat steams and melds everything together. The fries were awesome, crispy, perfectly seasoned, fluffy inside. My order took just a few minutes after ordering to be ready. With the open kitchen you can watch them make your cheesesteak as you wait. Will definitely come back again!”

    “Had lunch on a Sunday afternoon and watched some FIFA soccer. The restaurant didn't anticipate the soccer crowd and was trying to operate with one server and a host. About a dozen patrons showed up, plus a party of 10 on the patio. The service slowed down dramatically (3 stars) not necessarily the fault of the staff, just understaffed. We didn't look in the bar but could hear a few more people cheer when a goal was scored. Food was served hot and drinks were refilled on request. The Chicago style Hawaiian trio was good. The sauce over the toppings was too much for my pallet. The sauce overwhelmed the toppings and primarily tasted the sauce. The atmosphere was good with multiple screens to watch the match. Servers (host began serving) were friendly and hard working. Booth was clean and comfortable. Cost was typical for dining out, but we had a coupon, so that helped make it affordable.”
