I ordered the stuffed mushrooms, which was basically just bread no other taste. I ordered the red snapper with asparagus and mushrooms. I took two bites and really couldn’t eat it. It was floating in a pile of liquid. The fish was all soggy looking like soup. I was there with my girlfriend, and she ordered the pasta fagioli soup she hated it no beans were mushed in the soup broth and lots of garlic slices tasted like garlic soup she said, i could not believe the horrible red snapper dish. chef license number please so we can see you are indeed certified by the state?

Run don't walk to another Real Italian restaurant!!!! Real chef made dinners! I just dont like bingo night food…It’s not worth the ByOB deal.
No apologies from waiter but took back dinner.

This place is top tier. My family and I love coming here for the 3 course menu. We try to come every week and the staff are so friendly and the service is amazing. The atmosphere is peak and the best part is that they are BYOB so we can fully enjoy ourselves. Make sure you get Sambuca for desert!

Wonderful and attentive service with delicious food. Personally, we find BYOB a little inconvenient but otherwise it was a great experience.

This place is amazing. The food was absolutely fantastic. The salad was simple, yet fresh and the homemade dressing was outstanding. I got the Chicken Justin and it was delicious!!! My husband had the grilled salmon and it too was delicious. Even the broccoli rabe was amazing. The service was extremely attentive. Seating is a bit tight, but we would definitely come back again.

We have lived in the area for many years and have been to Hawthorne countless times but I am embarrassed to admit that we have never been to Justin's. It was recommended to us by a friend and we couldn't be more thankful.
This place was excellent 👍
We went with a friend and we all agreed that the food was wonderful, from start to finish. We all had a different fish dish, with pasta and everything was cooked perfectly.
The service was great and they don't rush you at all. Keep in mind that this is a relatively small restaurant so I would recommend making a reservation, especially on the weekends.
Last, but certainly not least, the prices are more than reasonable for what you're getting. The quality of the food is top notch.
Seek out this great place and you won't be sorry.

Had a great time, even though a little loud with an unexpected power outage that did not impact us. Pasta was great and loved the salad as well. Great neighborhood place, sometimes a little slow but not tonight!

Small casual family owned restaurant. All the servers were attentive, like keeping our water glasses filled and asking if we needed anything. The food was terrific. House salad included the dressing was out of this world good. The main course was delicious!! Definitely on our restaurant rotation. Definitely make reservations because it is a small place.
