Well thought we would try something new found this place on door dash, you would think with the reviews you would get your money's worth in food. Hamburgers are half the size that they pictured at least. Not worth a $20 a meal from here sorry not sorry, over $60 for 2 smashed Hamburger and fries smh and don't get me started on the mozzarella cheese sticks. Better at Arby's or Apple Bees or even Spangler's Family Restaurant. No flavor... taste plain... like hardly any taste to them at all.. taste the fake cheese like plain bread with no taste. Hard to describe, easy to compare. Nothing to something. Maybe it's good for ice cream. Not for dinner...

Such a cool place! Hidden gem, everything is ice cream related decor including the seating and lights!? I may suggest to order in advance if you're in a hurry but worth the wait for the only hand dip real icecream left in Jackson mi!!Kid-friendliness: Magical

Parking: Right in downtown Jackson. Most parking spaces will be in the street. I dont believe there are meters, but some spots have time restrictions. It's worth it to find spot

My wife and I were looking for a place for date night and we came across the Facebook page of this great place that had ice cream nachos. I said ? ice cream nachos. I have to try that! We talked about going all week and honestly I had been looking forward to it. Fast forward to today. We get there and my wife and I get double smash burgers and seasoned fries. When I tell you the burgers were nice and fresh. They give you a nice variety of toppings for the burgers to choose from and don't get me started on the seasoned fries. They were so good. My wife had the lemon pepper and I had the cajun. The food was nice and hot as well. Now on to the main event the nachos we initially went for. These ice cream nachos were on a different level. I've had all different ice cream places in Jackson and I can say the ice cream wasn't overly sweet as it checked all the boxes I was looking for. The waffle chips complimented the ice cream very well and the consistency of the ice cream was right on point. I would recommend RJ's one hundred times over. I think the service was fast and the staff was very pleasant. We even had one of the staff(owner) come out and speak with us and ask how our food was. It was really nice because you don't get that from a whole lot of restaurants these days. I'll say it again. Great place, great atmosphere, good music, and the main thing is the awesome food!

My sister, my niece and I tried RJ’s for the first time today. We enjoyed the whole experience very much. The owner and the staff were helpful and fun to communicate with. We felt like a “sugar friend” as they call it. We will be back.
