Stopped in to try a burger. Ordered a mushroom and Swiss. I did not realize the burger came with onions, the menu says grilled onions but they were pretty uncooked. Had they been sautéed and not so crunchy i think it would have been better. The rest of the burger was good but the onions were a distraction. I chose crinkle fries that were power good except the super crunchy pieces. All in all i would ask them to reserve the onions next time.

After driving up from Indiana to see family, I finally was able to visit the Highly Spoken about TJ bar and Grill, I chose to order the Brisket Burger and what a Choice! The in-house smoked Brisket was juicy with a perfect smoke ring, burger was charred to perfection, the smoked cheddar was so deep with flavor and the fries were very crispy. My family chose the special which was a Chicken Parm sandwich with a Vodka sauce and it was literal perfection, chicken was juicy and cooked all the way through while retaining a very crunchy exterior full of flavor, other party member chose the pulled pork and it punched wel above its weight class, full of flavor and the house made barbecue sauce was phenomenal. Regardless of it being in the middle of a couple fields in what feels like the middle of nowhere I feel it is disrespectful to call this Bar food considering it would hold up at the nicest microbrewery in any large city. Will continue to patron the Bar in the future and would always recommend anyone traveling near here to stop at this hidden gem

ok… if you’re looking for wings in the area, this is the place. here’s 5 reasons why:
wings are perfectly sized. (meaty)
skin was Crisp!
meat was juicy and tender (hard to do in conjunction with crispy skin – props chef David)
Sauce amount was spot on (abundant flavor there and not drown)
Blue Cheese Dressing – HOME MADE!!! (and so good – should just be called awesome sauce)
addendum notes:
price – so reasonable you won’t believe it. (no, I’m not posting it – go get you some wings)
atmosphere – nice and relaxed but absolutely family friendly –

The Monster burger is where it’s at folks!!! Delicious!!!!! The bacon cheddar burger was great too as well as the chicken strips and fries. We ordered to-go cause we had the dogs with us but whoever took my order over the phone was super sweet and kind. Some of the best burgers around for sure!

Great local place that is always super busy and worth the wait. Food is excellent, love their pretzel bread; smoked brisket and hand battered chicken fingers. They have indoor and outdoor dining. Pricing is reasonable and the service is good. But don’t go in and not expect a little wait.

I would have always gotten a hand pressed burger from TJ’s before but yesterday 12/06/25 I ordered the TJ’s classic burger and it was bad. Really bad. Medium is what I ordered. It was well done. The bun was cheap. Looks nice but when you press down on it, it’ll just flatten instantly.
The part that really bummed me out was that it was a frozen burger patty. You could tell. Cheap stuff you buy in bulk. Wasn’t worth it. Took two bites and said no thanks.
Also, sync the juke box with the house music. Otherwise anytime someone plays from it, you have two songs going at once and now you are annoying everyone and wasted someone’s money.
