Just A Pinch Cafe & Catering

Good was horrible. Menu was very confusing….tacos, burgers and spam. We waited over 45 minutes to get a waffle and croissant sandwich. Waiter forgot to put in our order and was lying. Would not recommend!

This has become one of our favorite weekend brunch spots. My favorite is the pineapple upside down pancake and my husband's new favorite is the katsu chicken omelet. The tater tot sides are delish and the coconut syrup is a favorite for me and my daughter. Everything is delish! And they have the best nugget ice! Sometimes they're can be a little bit of a wait for a table, but the move quickly to get everyone seated. Staff is always friendly and service is usually quick.

Parking: Large parking lot

I've been here twice now, and I wanted to bring my wife here since she's got a soft spot for Hawaii after living there for years. The place specializes in brunch and Hawaiian cuisine. If you've ever traveled there, you'll feel like you're back between items such as spam, loco moco, and Hawaiian macaroni salad.In both experiences, the service was amazing. This is the kind of place where you can have a full on conversation with your server. It feels like a classic diner.On the latest visit, my wife had the aforementioned loco moco while I ordered the biscuits, gravy and more. For those unfamiliar, loco moco is a popular Hawaiian dish consisting of rice, an egg, a hamburger steak, and brown gravy. She was very impressed, and it made her reminisce about her time back on the islands. The biscuits, gravy, and more came with eggs and a side of spam, and although tasty, I think it could have used a little more seasoning. With that being said though, I'd be more than willing to give other interesting selections from their menu a try.Give this place a go if you're looking for a new local brunch spot or want to try some Hawaiian food!

My spouse and I went to breakfast on a Saturday morning. The service was perfectly fine; the restaurantwas clean, and even the restrooms smelled great. Unfortunately, the food didn't match. I had the pineapple upside down pancake breakfast, with scrambled eggs, sausage and tater tots; with their homemade coconut syrup. The syrup strongly reminded me of suntan lotion; it was such a strong smell, but little taste. The pancakes were ok; very thin, but where the pineapple rings and cherries were, seemed very undercooked...mushy at best. The eggs were all right. The sausage tasted like old oil. The bright spot were the tater tots; super crispy, but needed some sort of seasoning. Spouse had the French toast with chicken, an tater tots. He says the French toast was all right, but not outstanding; and agreed with me about the tater tots. One of the chicken katsu tasted and was cooked just fine; the other piece tasted old and was not as warm as the other piece. We both had coffee; he had a regular, and I had the hazelnut blend. We both agreed...the coffee was just bad. Neither one of us drank more than half a cup...even doctoring with cream and sugar couldn't make it taste any better. All in all, we'll give this place a pass next time we are in Fleming Island.

we had a great morning there. the mimosas were delicious. i had steak and eggs with cheese grits. my steak was excellent, medium to the T, grits nice and creamy, the bisquit soft and hot ?. tamie, our waitress was a joy. this was my first but definitely not my last time. great job 'just a pinch'!

The chicken salad sandwich was disappointing even using canned chicken breast it could have been dressed up a little. The tater tots were the saving grace as the drinks were less than satisfactory. The pricing for the quality was a little steep. the service and atmosphere were the redeeming quality of the

I've been here several times before even on Sundays and I am okay with waiting for a bit but we were here for 2 hours waited almost an hour to be seated at least he did other people after us without reservations because we ask those people once we sat we were still with no food after almost an hour we finally just ask to pay for our drinks and leave. We had a very rude attitude towards us when we were asking about how much longer it would take I have never been treated so impolite. I have never experienced this before even on a Sunday here. We had to leave hungry. Two hours wasted.

First and last time I’ll ever go to this restaurant! Super rude hostess (whom I was told was owners wife) Waited 45 minutes to be seated. 2 other tables were seated before us that came in after us. Told my granddaughter to be patient when she asked her how much longer. Ordered food. Waited and waited after another 40 minutes we asked our waitress how much longer. Was a bit short and rude as well. Said we’re busy kitchens backed up. We waited 10 more minutes and decided to leave. Will never visit again or recommend to anyone!

What an excellent brunch! We felt transported to Hawaii, like a mini vacation! The pineapple up-side down pancakes were to die for and the hazelnut coffee is incredible! The coconut syrup is a special touch! And the grits are creamy and delicious! Even the desert we had- Lumpia cheesecake was phenomenal.The service was excellent! Amy was very friendly, informative and attentive! We even spoke with the owner Bernard who takes great pride in his business.It wasn’t super busy today, but even if we had to- it would be worth the wait!We will definitely be back soon!

Vegetarian options: The veggie omelet with tater tots was very flavorful, and we aren’t even vegetarians!

Parking: It’s in a strip mall with a large parking lot.

Food is good, but tip burnout at its finest. Automatic gratuity added to the to go order. During shutdowns of 2020-2021, I would agree but now, remove the auto tip. Prices are high enough.

Everything we ordered was good, the only negative I heard from the family was that somewhere else had better Mac salad. If you bring an entire family, including a teenager, and that's the only negative comment I call it a win.

Just no. This guy came to our table on Mothers Day saying they don’t let drink or food from outside in. I’ve heard this before but Me and my wife had 2 bottled waters we brought in and we had a cake for Mother’s Day. I take a bottled water in to restaurants because I don’t want to drink from their glasses and pay a fortune for something to drink. Non the less I remove the waters from the table.Then I notice on the floor behind me the glass was broke out. Look at that glass just sitting there. That should be removed. Wow! We have a children in our crew today and sometimes kids find themselves on the floor. unacceptable.

I'm pretty snobby about how my grits are cooked, and these were very well prepared! The Crab wontons with sweet chili sauce were great too! Great food, love the atmosphere, and the owner was very nice! Unfortunately, I do have to stick to a Gluten Free diet (not celiac, thankfully) and there isn't really much other than the grits that I can have.

I had a great morning dining here. The food was good. The shrimp was great, but it needed to come in 6 pieces. ?We almost had to fight for the last one. I ordered the French toast & my sister ordered the Big breakfast. Everything was tasty and made to order. The waitress was awesome with a very good attitude. My only hang-up was I had my own water, and they didn't want me to bring it in to drink with my meal. Their water was tap and disgusting.
