I’m not sure what has changed since the last time I ate here but something has drastically changed. First we were given our own silverware, menus and straws at the door and we’re told to find our own seats. We then waited 15-20 minutes for our waitress to ask us our drinks order, we then waited another 10 mins for our drinks only to be told they were out of one of the drinks. We then waited 30 minutes to be asked our order which we had to ASK for someone to take our order. We then waited over an hour for our food. They forgot two orders of fries. The Mac and cheese was cold the noodles weren’t cooked, the chicken was cold and the burger wasn’t cooked fully. We sat beside dirty tables the entire time we were there. The waitress was nice and apologetic and told us the food besides our to-go order was on the house, although once we got to the cash register we then had to pay for our drinks as well. And to be honest the price for just that was very high. While I appreciate the food being on the house everyone in my party still agreed we would have been better off going somewhere else. It wasn’t worth the wait. And most definitely would not have been worth the price. We left hungry because the food wasn’t even good. Disappointed.

I’m going to give this place my honest and transparent review.
For starters,
Some of the very best service I’ve had in a really long time. So kind and attentive. Offering the best options and grateful for any feedback.
The food was fantastic. Hands down some of the best fried tomatoes out there. Give them a shot. They are lightly breaded BUT with the seasoning they use, you don’t actually need much breading and the breading has a fantastic crunch. But not the tomato’s. They are perfecting cooked. Not too fleshy but not to soft either.
I was also quite surprised at how good the blackened shrimp was. I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t that. It was spectacular. The shrimp were way bigger than expected and seasoned to perfection, and you get plenty. I paired the blackened shrimp with the grilled veggies, and you cannot go wrong with them. Also perfectly seasoned but not over cooked to where they have no bite.
Then the macaroni.
Oh, the macaroni.
I have no ideas how many cheeses they have in that heavenly Mac. It’s beautiful with the spiral noodles and then the FLAVOR. it’ll smack you right in the face. It’s PHENOMENAL. I will be back. I give this place my best 10/10 rating.
Will lightly touch on the sweet tea being perfect and the cheese cake being out of this world also.
Just so so good. Give it a try

First time visiting this lovely diner. Loved the food and atmosphere. I got the Catfish nuggets with fries for 9.89. I’m bringing my mom next week.

Had a great late lunch there. It was our first time and from the moment we walked in the door we had exceptional service! “Miss D” took care of us! We had fried chicken that was crispy and delicious. Corn bread that was some of the best ever. No exaggeration! The sides were great too. I had a Big Mouf double patty burger. It was cooked perfectly and had all the trimmings. We ended up with a go box for the chicken and sides. It was a great deal, $10.99 for 3 pieces of your choice and 2 sides plus cornbread. Try BJ’s, it’s worth the drive!

The absolute best stop on our road trip from Houston to Tennessee. We had burgers, catfish, hush puppies (onion), shrimp, fries, mac and cheese, and potato salad. It was all amazing. Coming from folks who grew up and live on the Texas Gulf Coast – the seafood was fresh and so delicious. You have got to stop here if given the chance.

Tried BJ’s Diner for the first today and man was it good! There is so much to choose from that we each tried something different and shared. Everything was delicious. The catfish and shrimp were lightly breaded and flavorful, the hamburger was big and juicy, the fried chicken was moist and crunchy, and the crab boil was cooked to perfection.

I’ve had the pleasure of eating here on several occasions! I am never disappointed!! The food is delicious, the service is great! I always feel welcomed upon entering the building. I’ve had several menu items but the fish and the homemade fries are by far my favorite! I do plan on visiting again soon!!
