So disappointed. Was looking forward to an enjoyable breakfast and did not get it. Had to ask the waitress to take our order 15 minutes after we received our menus. Got our food and my order was missing the scrambled eggs which should have been included. Waitress never checked back on our table until the check was dropped off. We asked about the eggs and she did not know if they were included in the meal. Had to ask another waitress if they were included. Found out they were and off she goes no questions asked. After we finished our meal, the eggs arrived. Told the waitress we were done and would like to have the cost of the eggs removed. They could not adjust the check but offered a discount. Felt sorry for our waitress as she has not been trained any better on how to do her job. Usual $10 tipper. Tempted to leave no tip but went ahead and left her $5. Sad to mention this was at 10:30 in the morning and there were only 6 tables occupied. Not busy at all. Service was definitely lacking. Better service causes better tips!

I’ve been going to J. Christopher’s for quite a while now, and until recently, I’ve rarely been disappointed. Unfortunately, my last few visits haven’t lived up to the standard I’ve come to expect.
I usually order the skillets, but lately the potatoes have been extremely dry, with some even burnt. The coffee has also gone downhill—on one visit, a friend jokingly asked me to pass him the “brown water.” We ordered a latte as well, and it tasted like creamer mixed into water—no foam and barely warm.
I truly hope this isn’t the new norm. I’ve always loved this place and what it has to offer, which makes this even more disappointing. It’s hard not to notice that the care and attention in the cooking just doesn’t seem to be there anymore. On top of that, the bathrooms were unpleasant and clearly not well-maintained. When the restaurant was slow, employees were sitting in booths on their phones, which didn’t help the overall experience.
I really didn’t want to write this review because I’ve always enjoyed J. Christopher’s, but time hasn’t been kind to this location lately. I sincerely hope they’re able to get back to what they once were in the coming year.

I love J Christopher’s. This was my second visit, and my family’s first, because I recommended it based on the excellent food and business reputation. The food and staff were exceptional. However, our experience was marred by a concerning incident: a customer brought in a non-service dog, a poodle, which was licking off plates and cups. We immediately requested the waiter to get the manager. The manager came out and informed us that she couldn’t require customers to present papers for a service dog, and she could do nothing about the dog licking plates and cups. I found this situation highly disappointing and disgusting. My family has decided not to return due to this matter. Aside from that incident, everything else was excellent.

What a great experience! We stopped in on our way to FL and had a great breakfast. The owner, Kim, visited with us and shared some info about the area. This was an easy on and off from the highway and a nice change from the chain restaurants.

VERY RUDE. Stood at the counter for 10 minutes while the waitress walked past me multiple times before asking what I needed and then when she opened her mouth there was no greeting only “ you here for doordash” . Will never take another order from here.

Food was good. Service was not good. Very slow. Did not ask if I had everything I needed or if I wanted anything else once I received my food or after. When she thought I was finished she was quick to ask if I was finished.
A wonderful place to grab breakfast! Amazing service. And Pumpkin Pancake for Fall!

I just received my food from this restaurant via DoorDash. I am so disappointed. I ordered the J Grits-Opher. The grits had little to no cheese on it and definitely NO jalapeño at all. I had to put butter for flavor. I could have saved money and order plain grits. Not to mention I didn't receive my corn beef hash (no fault of the driver because the bag was still sealed). I did however speak with the manager which she did acknowledge the mistake of the corn beef hash, but I received a strange response regarding the grits being incorrectly served. To reorder would cost me more taxes and delivery fees and at this point I'm not confident with the results. This was my 3rd time ordering this and this time was the absolute WORST!!. J. Christopher's you really must do better. This was definitely a waste of money.
