This is one of our staples. When we are ready for a burger, we head straight to JJs. Great burgers. Always great, smiling service. We've never had to wait, regardless of how busy the restaurant is. The kids really like it too, and they especially love the unlimited popcorn. Yay for carrying Diet Dr. Pepper.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner, it has it all. Good little dive joint. Not sure why they have a bar, when they close at 9 o'clock. But breakfast is great, and have plenty of burgers, wings, and even pretty good pizza. Menu is a little confusing, because of all the items on it, but pretty much everything is good. But, don't eat the popcorn after 7pm. I thought I was eating Styrofoam, but it was free so how can you complain?

Always been a favorite place for good eats. Went there tonight.. meal was good, service was excellent as always.. then came the bill. I was shocked to see 3 sodas cost me almost $8 and with 2 burgers and a wrap, my bill totalled just over $40.

We just moved over here and wanted to check it out! The food tasted like it had been sitting out all morning. Eggs, bacon, toast. Everything was disgusting. I didn't think anyone could mess up breakfast, but they sure did!!

I love this place and it's pretty close to home! JJ's has really great burgers and pizza. The burgers are fresh and made daily and never frozen. Even the bison burger isn't frozen. There are lots of specialty burgers to choose from, which I like. They have a really good blue cheese and bacon burger, called the Black and Blue (I think). The other menu items not too not worthy, but not terrible. Just your standard American fair for those who don't like to venture out of their safe place. The french fries are regular ol' crinkle cut, but I love them so it works out for me. Onto the pizza. I ordered a personal size pepperoni and mushroom, my standard. It was awesome gooey cheese-y, gooey-ness. They probably use provel and that is fine by me and thin crust. The personal pizza was enough for me to be full. A small salad might have been nice, but the pizza was already $9 or so. Breakfast is good. It's been over a year since I have been for breakfast, but it is your standard eggs, bacon and pancake type stuff. It's definitely time for another visit. I've visited for lunch and was in and out. I like it when I don't have to ask for the check. I've also walked in a half an hour before close and was treated just as nice as if it was opening time. We didn't realize they closed so early so we hurried up, but there was no rush at all. Our server was so nice and helpful! I asked her lots of questions about the burgers and pizza and she had all of the answers and was nice about it. That makes me so happy. Everyday JJ's has a special, it's listed on the board as soon as you walk in. They're good specials, too! Like all you can eat fish and chips and kids eat free. I can't remember the specific days for them. The decor is like a run down Applebee's with a car theme. Everything is old, but I like it some alter ego way. JJ's hosts car shows once a month or so from 4pm-8pm (I think). The parking lot is full of old cars and their owners waiting for you come come by and take a look. The restaurant and bar offer specials on those days spacial for the car show. JJ's is an all around cool place.

Good Burgers! However, my girlfriend and I went there and sat at the bar. The entire time we were there, probably a good 45 minutes, the creepy bartender stared at my girlfriend the entire time. He didn't look or even speak to me. He even had the nerve to go and get a cook from the back to come and look at her. It was creepy and it made her uncomfortable.

JJ's has become my go-to place for dinner if I don't feel like cooking, mainly because it's directly outside my apartment complex. But even if it were I'd still probably visit because the food is solid, the price decent, and I love diners. So far I've visited for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Breakfast was typical diner format. I liked the corned beef hash. I wish the hash was cooked a little more to get the crust on it. The rest of the meal, eggs, bacon, toast, etc. were done well and tasty. The real reason to visit is the burgers. You only need a single, the double is huge. here's a big list of different specialty burgers with everything from "Cajun spices" (I'm from South Louisiana, it's not Cajun) to a fried egg to onion rings. Don't like burgers? Sub out a turkey burger or chicken breast for free. That's right, free. Burgers come with a side, your choice of fries or house made chips, or onion rings or a salad for an extra charge. They have special throughout the week, including Free Pie Wednesday where you get a free slice with your dinner. So, here's the tough part and the big downside: like many restaurants in St. Charles JJ's allows smoking. Yes, there's two different rooms, one smoking and one non, but that smoke is still there even faintly and I don't care for it when I'm eating. Best solution: get it to go.

JJ's has become one of my favorite "mom and pop" diners in St Charles. The food is always good, especially the burgers. Breakfast is also hard to beat here. Service is above par, and empty glasses are in short supply here. I never complain about my service, though there isn't much flair about it either. Overall, if you are looking for a local eatery, some place not too crowded, with good service and a nice relaxed atmosphere, and superb food, JJ's delivers all of these consistently.

The food is the standard burgers, nachos, chicken strips, etc. Food is good, if only a little overpriced.
Pretty solid place for burgers, appetizers, and food that is on the indulgent side of the spectrum. We stopped in after 8 p.m. on Friday night, starving. It took a minute to get seated, but we received great service once we did. Our waitress Rachel was attentive and helpful, which was appreciated being this was our first time here. We thought it was pretty boss that they bring you a big pitcher full of popcorn when they seat you. The food prices were average, but we scored a half-price deal on wings and Bosco sticks (Fridays and Saturdays only after 8). The Bosco sticks were a tiny bit overcooked, but still fine. The wings were pretty average; we'd get them again if we were there, but we wouldn't seek them out otherwise. Both the hubby and I ordered burgers. They didn't ask us how we wanted them cooked, and honestly we were too hungry to care. My husband got a regular cheeseburger and thought it was great, particularly the toasted sesame bun. I got a burger with cheddar, BBQ sauce, and onion rings. I usually like a medium-rare patty but the flavor of the whole burger was so good, I didn't mind the well done patty. My husband and I are on different planes when it comes to french fries, so we were pleasantly surprised to have fry options. Hubby got the skinny fries, and I got the crinkle cuts; hooray for variety! We ordered way more food that we could eat, and ate way more of it than we should have, but it was a fun outing for sure. Not the kind of restaurant to make a habit of visiting if you want to survive heart disease, but it was fun to indulge in the treat.

Decent food. This place is kind of a dive, but in a good way. Beware - if you order a double burger of any variety, it is absolutely massive. Think Man vs. Food-type of massive. Tonight I ordered a steak with green beans and chicken enchilada soup. The soup was thick and very spicy. The green beans were bland and seemed canned... it took quite a bit of salt to make them edible. However, I was actually impressed with the steak. For the price, it wasn't bad at all. My 8-oz. sirloin was cooked to perfection and surprisingly tender. I can't say the food at JJ's is the absolute best I've ever had, but it's definitely solid. A three star rating seems about right. JJ's is A-OK.

We've been having breakfast at J.J.'s for decades. You just can't beat the prices, food quality, and waitstaff. They've done a lot of redecorating over the years, and they just put up a brand new sign....but they are the same J.J.'s that we fell in love with. They have a great breakfast menu, and everything is fresh - eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns, country fried steak....yum! Have the Big Breakfast, which includes eggs, meat, toast, hash browns, biscuits and gravy for less than ten bucks. Last weekend, on a whim, I tried the waffles for the first time and they were freshly made, crisp and delicious. I highly recommend skipping the long lines at the chain breakfast places, and stop in at J.J.'s!

First off this place is old...but that I can deal with. What I can't deal with is the month-old popcorn they dish out of who knows where to put on your table as you walk in and the blaring 60's music that is so ever present. The burgers are good, but the grease drips off of the burger everywhere so very messy. If you want something you will regret .5 seconds after eating then this place is it. Staff was really nice and helpful but I won't be going back b/c if the popcorn is that old I would imagine everything else is.

It was my first time here. I liked the place and the throwback décor, and I loved the cheeseburger I had. It was a big thin patty on a toasted bun with a generous amount of fresh condiments. I didn't think I could eat it all, but guess what.....? The crinkle cut fries were the perfect accompaniment. I tried some of my buddy's pizza, and it was good, too (talk about a cracker-type crust). The service was friendly and efficient and we were even offered to-go refills for our drinks.
