I'm just here to say that I LOOOOOVE GJ’s. Best in town. Homestyle everything. I eat breakfast here at least 2-3 times a month. I do my birthdays and family birthdays here. I absolutely love GJ’s. I love the owners and the environment they have created. The diversity they've hired and how they have kept the same people there forever. I've gone here since I was a little girl (full grown middle aged woman now) and the food is always amazing. And don't get me wrong. Most places it's MOSTLY about food but they got the food part down here AND everything else. It's ALL good. My fave is French toast and chicken fried steak - but on top of all of that. I love that a husband and wife run it and employ people that stay there and they all give great service. I just love this place. It feels like home. They have super good prices as well. It blows my mind that places like the the original pancake house on west 11th who charged me about 70 dollars for two French toast meals and 2 drinks exist when they are like 3 times the price and don’t they are not even good food. Thank you for existing GJ’s! OH, and top it off as if this place wasn’t bomb enough - they get the food out hella fast, every time.

Always amazing one of my top places. For the last 18 years. Family. Foods amazing staff out of this world..
Big eats connoisseur here. I have fallen in love with gj's restaurant simply because they have consistent food, consistent atmosphere, and they are possibly the most welcoming breakfast establishment I've gone to ever. My signature order being the jumbo burrito with two sides of gravy it comes with salsa and overall the breakfast leaves me happy like a kid again. I am immensely grateful for the people who keep GJ's going. thank you!!!! I'm a bit of a shut in but I hope this lets you know a little bit of how grateful I am that you all do what you do.

GJ’s Family Restaurant is an absolute gem in Eugene. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm, welcoming atmosphere that truly feels like a classic family restaurant done right. It’s cozy, comfortable, and the kind of place where you instantly feel at home.
The food is outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing, with generous portions that leave you more than satisfied. Whether you’re there for breakfast, or you can tell they take pride in every plate that comes out of the kitchen.
The service is just as impressive. The staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind, making sure you’re taken care of without ever feeling rushed. It’s the kind of service that keeps you coming back because they treat you like family, not just another table.
If you’re in Eugene and looking for great food, excellent service, and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere, GJ’s Family Restaurant is a must-visit. Easily one of the best dining experiences in town.

Small diner feel, and you are really packed in there when it’s busy. Service was great but food was blah. 😑 I think there’s too many items on the menu. If you are just going for pancakes and eggs it’s not bad. But anything else, just don’t.
Best cinnamon roll I've ever had. Service was great, food was delicious!

I hate to do this since the service was very nice and the Restaurant had a very old school cozy ambiance, but the food was just not good. The hash browns and grilled ham both had a burnt taste to them like the grill and flat top had not been cleaned in a very long time. Overall the food was bland

I was super surprised how big the burrito was when ordering it ! Im gonna be eating this more lunch an dinner ! It was packed! And they made it to go which was helpful. I was the only customer but this place needs more recognition! Huge burrito for a decent price and it was fast ! The salsa was also very good. Definitely recommended!
