There was long line at its grand opening. We gave up. Finally we come here on weekday and hurray, no wait! Not easy to find street parking at Princeton, but still manageable.
I like the restaurant. It’s bright, simple, lively, and clean. Staffs are polite. We ordered their famous Kiseki pancakes with fruit, egg Benedict with smoked salmon, matcha latte and hot coffee. Pancakes were so soft, fruits were fresh and the cream was so fresh and tastes so good. I usually don’t like egg Benedict because I don’t like English muffins, but this one came with pancake, even not the Kiseki style, but so soft. The lettuce was so fresh. That is big plus for me. I really don’t like some other bigger breakfast restaurants give the lettuce to the customers even they already turn pink or brown. Coffee is so good. Only complaint is too small for me.

Yummy breakfast spot. The soufflé pancakes were so good. They also warned that the wait could be long for them but it really wasn’t. The fried chicken was also really good. Maybe the best fried chicken ive ever had? Definitely recommend, will be back.

Amazing pancakes! Loved the matcha one. Other people in our group had strawberry cream and chocolate and everything was delicious. We also got the omelette. The portion sizes are pretty small.

J.S. Foodies Tokyo is a fun new rival to PJ’s Pancake House, and judging by the line outside, everyone in Princeton knows it. The moment you step inside, it feels like you’ve been transported to a small Asian corner cafe — cozy, bright, and buzzing with people. The space is pretty small, so expect to wait. We waited about 25 minutes before being seated. The food overall was okay — it definitely leans toward a Japanese interpretation of Western comfort food. The sandwiches and burgers were decent, but nothing that really stands out. However, the kiseki pancakes are the real star here. They are incredibly fluffy, airy, and delicious. Since they cook them fresh, it takes about 30 minutes for the order to come out, so it actually becomes the main dish rather than a dessert. But honestly, it’s worth the wait. If you’re in Princeton and want something different from the typical brunch options, J.S. Foodies is a nice change of pace. Come for the atmosphere and definitely stay for the pancakes.

This is the spot to hit if you want real Japanese soufflé pancakes. Warning: if you come at peak times on the weekend, you may need to wait on hour for the pancakes as they only have so much flat top space and it needs to be made to order. Tip: order a sandwich or fried chicken to snack on as you wait for the pancakes.

I brought my daughter on a weekday and there is no wait and it is much more civilized. We both loved the fried chicken. I also loved the matcha pancakes. I previously ordered the fruit pancakes but I preferred the matcha ones.

The keseki was absolutely amazing — soft, fluffy, and perfectly balanced in sweetness, easily the highlight of the meal. The eggs benedict was okay but lacked enough hollandaise sauce. I also tried the hojicha, which was nice.

A hidden treasure in an alley! Owned by the same Japanese company who owns Mariuchi mart. Their main menu features are the Kiseki Soufflé Pancakes. The only downside- the pancakes take 30-45 mins however, they do have other menu items to choose from and I recommend the fried chicken (a version of the chicken tatsuta) while waiting for your kiseki pancakes.
Staff are efficient and friendly. Kudos to their graphic designer! Great graphic designs!

Honestly, my expectations were too high going in but it was a good experience overall. I mainly came for the soufflé pancakes and, of course, I went on a Sunday at brunch. After waiting for 30 minutes to be seated, we were warned that the pancakes could take close to an hour (we were too far in to say no). The eggs Benedict we ordered was nothing special. When the pancakes finally came out after an hour, they were visually pleasing but not worth the wait in my opinion. The red bean paste and fluffiness were nice, but it wasn’t justified by the price tag or total time. Would come back to try other items.

I’m gonna be honest I’ve been reviewing food for a long time and everyone who wrote reviews here needs to have their taste buds checked. Those soufflé pancakes were overrated and bland at best. They tasted like eggs and to wait an additional 30 to 60 minutes just for them to cook. It is insane. They need to fix their process and streamline the cooking process because this is unacceptable. I don’t mind first waiting 30 minutes for a line but then I gotta wait another additional 30 to 60 minutes from a pancake. The service here was decent however I don’t like it when the waiter comes by and has the need to grab every little thing off of my table like you really don’t need to grab the straw paper cover a little bit rude. If you’re coming here just to see you fluffy pancakes sure go ahead but you can make those at home by following a simple recipe extremely overrated however, their chicken sandwich was OK. The fries were good though trust my reviews I’m not talking nonsense.

Overall, don’t get too excited about the pancakes they’re bland and those people who don’t mind the wait are insane

The pancakes and burger were very tasty. Also great coffee. Wished the pancake could be made quicker. We waited 40 min for them after ordering. The menu warns you that the wait time is 20 to 30 min but can be longer during the busy hours.
