While I have only been with IJL for 2 months I have been so happy with the service I have received. I especially enjoyed my initial interview with Kelly and how she really took the time to get to know me and what I'm looking for and also what I'm NOT looking for Her advise for me to get off the dating apps and let her do her job enabled me to relax and trust the process. The rapport we built in a short amount of time allowed me to trust that she really had/has my best interest at heart. My matches so far have been well attuned to my personality and interests. I feel grateful for Kelly's thoughtfulness and consideration in setting up my matches. I feel grateful for the opportunity to give feedback and how each date going forward is based on that feedback. Above all the IJL service has offered me the opportunity to connect with other people who are looking for a serious relationship, something the dating apps really fall short on. In conclusion I highly recommend Kelly and the IJL team knowing that soon I'll be in the relationship of my dreams thanks to their hard work and dedication to their craft. read more

THEY STILL CALL ME AFTER 22 YEARS! I used the service once back in 2003 for one lunch as a freebie trial because a friend was a new rep of theirs and she wanted me to 'just try it out' for them. Since then, I get a call probably once or twice a year saying that they have found 'someone aaaamazing' for me. Every time, I tell them that I am off the market as I have been with the same woman for 15 years - married for 13. I even go so far as to return their voicemails to advise them of such. Still they call. I have come to the humorous conclusion that either they have zero unmarried alpha males in their Bay Area dating pool so they have to reach out to us Texas men or they're trying to become the next Ashley Madison via lunch dates at Red Lobster. read more

I just got an unsolicited text and phone call from one of the "matchmakers" touting her awards and credentials (I'm sooo [NOT] impressed!) telling me (not asking) that we need to reconnect. If she hadn't contacted me, it's unlikely I ever would have reviewed. But the audacity after my terrible experience! I made the mistake of engaging this company in late 2023. To say I wish I'd checked reviews before I contacted It's Just Lunch would be a massive understatement. Had I seen the overall ratings and read the negative reviews, I would not have made that initial call. As it stands, I would definitely give this company a negative review if I could. **Heed this warning and those of others!** It's Just Lunch IS A TOTAL SCAM. Online dating was depressing and fruitless so I decided to look into matchmaking. Made a phone call to It's Just Lunch as a fact finding mission and ended up talking to a woman who very well may be the best salesperson I have ever spoken to. I really didn't want to buy in that day and yet, I did. I got off of the phone thinking, "what did I just dooo?" She is GOOD at her job. I was filled with hope and my bruised ego was healing and I felt like she totally got it and she was my new bestie - all after one phone call and multiple thousands of dollars. Yes, multiple thousands of dollars. I firmly believe now - in having spoken to several other women who have been taken by this sham company - that they use a sliding scale to determine how much to charge for their sh!t services. My matchmaker asked probing questions without them seeming probing - all in the name of building my profile, of course. Having established that I had the means, she floated a number that she knew my vulnerable as$ would be willing to and could pay. I went out on a whopping two dates in three months after having been promised two/month (I call BS on one sales manager's response to a review with "you signed up for 1/month"; I was told by my matchmaker that I would have 2/month). Even so, I didn't get the "contractual" 1/month either! My two HORRIBLE dates: One was with Jabba the Hutt (I had explicitly said, "I need to be with someone who is active, adventurous, and in good physical condition; this is a dealbreaker; absolutely no flexibility") and the other with a man who had the personality of over cooked spaghetti (after stating that I need someone fun, intelligent, with a raucous sense of humor - this guy barely cracked a smile - and I'm damn funny). When I expressed my dissatisfaction, I was immediately reminded that I would not get any money back. Defensive move! Anytime I expressed concern or questioned the process, I was shot down and was sometimes met with an immediate, negative shift in tone. It wasn't pleasant. But when I was cheerful and playing along, these ladies seem to be great listeners and they are charming. You feel like they get it, they talk the men up and make them sound like princes - but GAK. One "match" that I refused but was pushed HARD on to take was 63 years old with a three year old child. I had said I didn't want anyone outside of a 5+/- year age gap (he was 10 years older) and no kids under high school age. Again - so far outside of my stated parameters! He wasn't the only mismatch I was offered. I was told that if I kept refusing their matches, it would count against me. But your matches DON'T MATCH ME!! How is that reasonable? That's when I started checking in with other people. Three other women told me very similar stories. Thousands paid out, totally horrible or no dates, bad matches, no monetary recourse. Not one of these women could even tell me they'd gone on a second date with anyone they'd met through It's Just Lunch. Despite being told not to by my matchmaker (how dare you! Tell me I CAN'T?!?), I got back online immediately after The Wet Noodle - didn't bother waiting out the remaining three months - time's a wasting!! But I didn't cancel my membership right away - figured I'd see if they presented anyone worth dating; almost a month went by with zero contact. Where are my promised matches, ladies?? Despite their bullying tactics and vociferous statements indicating no refunds, I nearly did file in small claims court with the other women I spoke to. No recourse/refunds for horrible service is certainly unconscionable - but may actually be illegal because their practices involve misrepresentation/fraud and take advantage of the vulnerable. Only reason I didn't was the desire to avoid further toxicity. Should their "business manager" refute any point in my review - keep in mind that these people are trained in no-holds barred sales tactics and rhetoric. Twisting words and blame shifting is what they do. Don't risk it. Don't engage. No Lunch!! Post Script: I did meet an absolutely amazing man - ONLINE. It can happen!! And we're still together a year+ later! (On Match, in case you're wondering.) read more

Terrible scam. And they never give up. They still contact me after 12 years when they cheated me out of my hard earned dollars. They didn't provide me with all dates they contracted to give me and the three dates I went on were not good, the men were old and one was so boring. They don't have enough men for the women they con into using their service. There was a class action lawsuit against them but they are still in business read more

Like a used car salesman pitch - beware of this scam business!! . Don't get suckered by anything Lisa or her colleagues say !! They'll say anything to get you to pay 6,000 for 6 months - they called me because I was in database from circa 2018? I never reached out to them again but they insisted I did, over and over and then called me like 2-3x a day over a weekend insisting that I told her to check back in with me?? - you know what this is? Lack of Integrity - if they're willing to lie like this than how can you trust them when they insist - they have a big pool of eligible ppl in your category. Lisa even tried to convince me that I actually do want kids even after I told her I despise the idea? Seriously- why pay $$$ for the used car salesman service??? Don't do it!! Ap dating is free and just because IJL will put you in person - cmon that doesn't meet it will go well; you're not a Cinderella !! The lack of integrity is so blatant and tacky!! read more

Do not under any circumstances join this service! Lisa will tell you what you want to hear to get you to join, and then they will immediately switch their tone once you pay. The matches are not quality. They will pretend they have matches but not provide ones that meet your preferences. Then they will say that you are the problem and your preferences are not valid when they cannot offer what they originally promised. Read the negative reviews closely and do NOT join. read more

IJL is a terrible, terrible business that acts in fraudulently ways and has a false business address, as it is basically a storage unit in San Francisco -- 2030 Union Street, #300E, so it is impossible to connect with a live person in person (which demonstrates the issues that must be happening behind the scenes). We are in the process of suing them for the $5200 of wasted hard-earned money I gave them. I'm a single mom running my own business working excessive hours, and I was led to believe that they were on my team that they "got me " and that they had "the perfect man for me", etc.etc. My first date was with a man who had been widowed seven months prior. After a 27 year marriage. And then they set me up with a Silver Fox who is a man who literally died his hair, black and his sideburns silver Time and again they did not perform and then would not respond to my plea for a refund. Any company that is not unwilling to deal with unhappy clients is Shirley accompany it does not believe in the validity of their claim. Please don't do it. This was the worst experience I've ever had (outside of health issues read more

update changed from 5 stars to TWO - once these girls left, I got placed with someone else. I can't remember her name. She wasn't friendly and didn't get to know me at all. I once wait 3 weeks to be set up on a date with this specific guy that she thought would be a great fit. But once we had the date we couldn't have been more different on everything- especially religion. Which was a deal breaker for me. I was very disappointed. The dates were few and far between. Not what I had in mind and I told her this several times. I wanted to be going out once a week like I had been doing before. IJL needs to look at who they hire. I will not be signing up with them again. It was soooo expensive and not worth it to me at all. read more

It's a joke. They sell one service (not cheap) to then try to sell you a better service for $25K. Really disappointed. Complained many times, but they do not care. Also their matchmakers do not listen to ones asks. It's a scam Really disappointed. read more

I was happy and impressed for my first date. They seem to know who to pick that at the minimum can have a meaningful conversation with you. I'm so looking forward to my 2nd date. read more

If I could give this company a negative star I would do so. This dating service is deceitful. They take advantage of people searching for connection. I have been lied to from their staff repeatedly. I sent a letter to the owner of the SF franchise and even with it being certified, it was returned to me. I have started a small claims court claim. During my interview, their rep took all the information about what I was looking for in a parter and she said (emphatically, think cheerleader tone) "I've got you girl! We have the best men." Then when I was set up on four different dates with men who did not meet ANY of my requirements, I was told I was being "picky." Isn't asking for specific attributes why we paid for a match making service? At the very start, IJL should have told me they did not have men in their database that met my qualifications. I have asked for a refund and told I could not have one, but when I referenced their contract, shame on me for not looking sooner, I read that I could have done so within certain criterion, of which, of course, I was not told about from anyone on their staff. I am embarrassed that I spent $5200 as it was a TREMENDOUS investment for me. I was misled, I was insulted, and I have wasted my time. I was depressed after every date, and I am extremely disappointed that I was a fool to believe IJL would perform. IJL is taking advantage of people who are seeking partners and may be vulnerable. (I was.) Placing a great amount of trust into a company such as IJL and its team, takes courage. If the company was operating in an above-board manner, all the details of the contract and expectations would be reiterated verbally. Any issues would be met with honesty, not false promises that get hopes up. I beg you not to use their services. Date of experience: January 01, 2025 read more

If I could give a 0-star review, I would. I am beyond frustrated with It's Just Lunch. Not only were they unprofessional and misleading about their services, but they also set me up with someone who had two DUIs, drank excessively throughout the date, and then tried to get me to keep drinking by offering to drive me home (which I obviously declined). He had been on the site for ten years and made various rude comments during the date. I made it very clear upfront that I did not want to be paired with anyone who drinks heavily, yet that's exactly who they matched me with. It was an incredibly uncomfortable and unsafe situation - a true liability. To make matters worse, they completely ignored my calls when I tried to address the issue, leaving me feeling completely disregarded. I feel misled and disrespected by It's Just Lunch. They not only failed to listen to my preferences, but they also put me in an unsafe situation. I would never recommend this service to anyone. Save your money and your time. This company does not care about creating matches, they only care about taking your money up front. read more

Lost $6,600 dollars. If you are a senior woman, steer clear. The men pay half of this price or less. They are predators. Period! Had 6 dates, the men at this age are single for a reason. Yet, IJL makes it seem they are a great fit. Do NOT spend this money if you are a woman. Unethical read more

Oh. Where to start? First- everyone is beyond nice and super responsive. Love Britany, Jill. Jolene. And learning about Cameron in my current process. My first match I totally understand why we were matched on paper but chemistry just wasn't there. Second match he was almost an hour late, well dressed, but again zero chemistry. Third match- felt like they figured it out physically. Great first date. However- worst second and third date of my life. With that being said. It did take me 4 days to get ahold of Ijl, but once I did it they listened and took my concerns serious. I learned after three concerns reported that person is declined services. My concerns should've automatically made him not a client but it counted as one and sadly counted against me as a match. SO I HIGHLY recommend reporting ANY CONCERNS even if minor. I'm excited for the possibility of my next matches. Concerns: they tell us not to talk about our ijl experience. FYI every guy brings it up before I do and received twice the amount of matches I did for close to half the amount I paid. Very disappointing. Pros: I do feel like they are trying to find me a match, they do the work for me. I just show up. Jolene is amazing. She makes me feel like I'm talking to a friend. I'm learning so much. I'm not giving up and have high hopes they will find my match. Happy dating! read more

Lisa called me on a saturday evening and started attacking me about why I'm aging, going to be alone, and how I'm either scared of dating or can't afford her fees and that's why I wasn't buying into her sales tactics. The most unprofessional interaction I've ever had by far. I had seen an ad, signed up, and then was hounded endlessly all week with calls and emails before I picked up that call (it was from a different number) so I didn't know. I think she took everything I was saying personally. Talk about psycho. read more

My experiences with IJL have been great. They take time to hear what you are looking for and more importantly they are very responsive with getting back to you and following up. read more

Yeah had high hopes for getting dates. I keep open mind and had 2/5 dates I signed up. Communication is crappy as many have experienced. Been going on for months without a date. The 2 dates I did have weren't even serious in dating. One worked nights so getting to answer was nearly impossible. My 2nd date her profile hasn't been updated in over a year so the information provided to me was not accurate after going on the date and asking her questions. She stated that she has asked them to update it because of the similar issues she has had with other dates. Lastly got new coach and as usual get phone call stating we are working in your next match. At this point I'm not even interested in moving forward since it's been 3+ months since my last date. I called and left 3+ voicemails for my coach and she has only called me once during the day when im working and left a vm for me to call back. Clearly lack of communication on the company and coach. Getting real tired of this BS excuses. I didnt know it was that hard to pick your phone and call read more

It's Just Lunch - Matchmakers Near Me - San Francisco, California

Addendum from 2012. The matchmakers loves shaming for person's preference. For paying such high price, they should just introduce the person to their preferences, and if they don't have clients that match their preferences, they should be honest about it and say they don't have such clients and give a disclaimer that they will notify if persons meeting preferences are available in their clientele. When I made my preferences clear, the matchmaker tried implying that attitude is why I'm still single. After finding my wife, I have come to the realization that the dating is scene is very toxic in West Coast and Northeastern US. Recommendation: Geomax it and find someone in the Southern US or get your Passports and find someone overseas. The people outside of the toxic dating scenes are more family oriented, more marriage serious, don't play mind games, and have better emotional intelligence. read more

Ivy did an amazing job with my profile after my hour-long interview. She really took the time to understand who I am and the values I'm looking for in a match. I loved being able to fine-tune it together--it felt like a true partnership! Since then, Ivy has been actively searching for matches for me, and I've received a lot of great date options. What I appreciate most is that, unlike other dating services where you hope for a response after sending texts or likes, here the basic courtesies are already established before the date. I just need to show up and be myself! It's made the whole process so much easier and more enjoyable. read more

I called simply to get information and the person I spoke with was very effusive and friendly, gave me the information, and took a lot of information about me. I was very clear that I was just information gathering and not ready to make a move but she continued in a sort of over the top sales push about my chances to get a good date, why I needed to act now, etc. and really pushed for me to join. As an executive sales professional, I was very turned off by the superficial, pushy approach. I might work with the company in the future, but hopefully the person I work with will be more professional. read more

I joined IJL in June of 2024 The interview was upbeat and positive Filled with promises of my summer being filled with dating and meeting new people I explained that the price was quite expensive, and I don't have that kind of money to throw around. Well....... it is now January, and I have dated a total of 5 times! I had to wait for the particular match Even if he was on a 3 week vacation. Talk about killing time I would call and ask to be set up with an available match in the meantime. I was put off for weeks at a time. I was told by my dates that It's Just Lunch doesn't have the mail inventory Some of these guys were being sent ALL OVER THE PENINSULA. I asked to be let out of the contract, but they just pushed another date on me The dates were very nice and gentleman. I feel I was bamboozled and taken advantage of. Five dates in 6months is not acceptable This is not my nature, but payments are still being taken from my checking acct!! Unhappy, Laura read more

Don't ever reach out, extremely pushy woman will never leave you alone. I've told her no, not interested, way too expensive. She pressed and pressed me, my answer wasn't good enough. Finally, I had to tell her it was her, and to bug off. She was like a used car saleswoman, as someone else said. Stinks of desperation. I can do better on my own. She's an extremely pushy sales woman. Telling you that you are the perfect age, but you're getting old and even a year will make a difference. Gaslighting you into doubting yourself. So very negative. Super expensive as well! After telling her several times I'm not interested, I told it was her. A whole year later she left me a voicemail. Years go by and she still calls! Nut job! read more

Very efficient and easy interaction with the IJL team. Ivy Porras has been my primary point of contact and is an active listener as well as someone that can be trusted with my opinions of those I have been matched with. She has been willing to course adjust and incorporate feedback into successive meetings which has greatly assisted in spending time with individuals who have common interests and life experiences. read more

Horrible experience. Sales person was very engaging. Promised many matches just on an initial review of potential dates. I signed up for six months or 6 dates. I am now 3 months in and have only had two initial dates. First date was someone who said they were reluctantly married previously. I was looking for a partner / marriage so clearly the matching was off. The matchmaker tried to sell me dating classes for extremely high costs. When I said I wasn't interested she said she couldn't help me unless I gave myself to the process I.e. Spend even more money or they won't match you). When I asked for the next date I was told it's quality not quantity. We"ll be in touch. Next date took 2 months to set up. Once set up the person had none of the qualities I asked for in a partner. I asked what they like to do for fun and their response was that they really don't have much time for anything but work. Then they said they enjoy working on their car. So I told them I was considering some travel and possibly getting an rv. They proceeded to tell me I would not like doing that. They had taken their chlisten camping when they were young so that kind of thing wasn't of interest to them anymore. So I asked about his children and grandchildren. He told me about them. Never asked me anything about me at all. So I told him about mine and he just kinda cut off the conversation. Said when he retired he wants to live in one of his kids rental properties for free. I told the match maker of my experience and they acted surprised. Thought this would be the perfect match. Honestly all I could think was how insulting. It's been nearly a month since that unsuccessful date and they have not reached out to me at all again. I wish I'd read the reviews prior to signing up for this disaster of a service. I would avoid Kelly Numair and her services at its just lunch at all costs. My goal was to help my self esteem and start dating again after many years to find a partner to travel with and enjoy time with. Instead I felt dressed down and put in my place. They seem to throw matches your way with no real thought to see what sticks. BE AWARE this is basically a scam. read more

Awful is the only word that comes to my mind , I had almost most of my matches with them already. It started OK and first 2 matches seemed pretty good. But the rest was too complicated starting from the scheduling they do it in a very annoying style (send them availablity in written for future reference, receive a date confirmation on a wrong date-time, let them know and see how they get out of their own skin to not own their mistake) and ending with the dating coach which will give you an advice and conclude on next steps but won't be synced with the matchmaker and one who introduces you to the new matches. !! Their communication is very unprofessional starting from ignoring your questions and ending with ignoring your emails. In one word - disrespect. Consider how expensive $ this disrespect is for you. They lack candidates. Reread that. Once they tried to match me while collaborating with another matchmaker service, the candidate was the exact opposite of what my match would be and you don't need to be a scientist to see that.. They don't have good variety of candidates. Don't use their service, see their overall rating - most won't do it. Save your money and attend meetups. I might consider adding screenshots of some communication examples. read more

I wrote a review a few months ago (see below) and stand by everything that I wrote -- these guys are a bunch of criminals, scammers, and liars who will take advantage of your loneliness, coerce you into signing absurd contracts that they don't give you time to review, and then don't deliver on the service whatsoever. Don't believe me? As of current, there are at least two class action lawsuits against them: California: https://ewscripps.brightspotcdn.com/fa/67/6c0be87348229696341a5f491e1d/its-just-lunch-new-complaint.pdf Denver: https://www.denver7.com/news/investigations/local-matchmaker-service-faces-legal-action-as-many-of-its-customers-call-it-a-waste-of-money?_amp=true These guys never once set me up on a date and are still holding $2600 hostage. It's criminal. Avoid avoid avoid. Tell all your friends. Share broadly. It's not ok to let crooks like this survive (no less thrive) read more

I and many other customers have been scammed by it's just lunch. I have contacted John Balestriere, a lawyer who has successfully helped innocent people like me get scammed out of their money for a false promises this company does not fulfill. I was contacted incessantly by Lisa Sisemore, IJL representative Northern California until I caved under her false promises that were never fulfilled. read more

I'm recently introduced to a woman with whom...well...I'm not certain I really have words to convey just how awesome this relationship is, how terrific things feel, how well she and I dovetail together in conversation, in attitudes, in sensibilities toward one another. We have each expressed to the other these precise impressions -- she likes me as much as I like her (...if there really is a yardstick for such things...). Yes, it's new, and yes, mature wisdom says "go slow," and yes, there's always more to learn and share about each other. But frankly, if you're the least bit emotionally mature, and you know yourself well, then you'll also know pretty quickly when you've met "The One." And in this day and age (and with the treadwear I carry) I say with no hesitation that having a competent matchmaker in my corner is a godsend. The bottom line is that IJL's Lisa Sisemore and Ivy Porras hit one out of the park (into the next county, in fact). My highest recommendation goes to It's Just Lunch -- it is, truth told, *way* more than *just* that! --James G., San Rafael, Calif. read more

It's a tough job and Ivy handles it with class. She is always straightforward with me and does the best she can. We all have to remember that the matchmaker has to match us with what is out there.

There is no person to call to complain to either. FRUSTRATED BEYOND BELIEF! There is no refund no matter how they fail to deliver what they promised... read the fine print read more

It's Just Lunch - Matchmakers Near Me - San Francisco, California

DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICES The name It's Just Lunch should be changed to It's Just a Crock. The difference between how they portrayed themselves during the sign-up process and my actual experience with them ... was as vast as the known universe. I'm a 59-year-old, widowed female - I'm normally nice-looking and have two wonderful kids and a great career. Dating apps can be impersonal and frustrating so I thought I'd treat myself and sign on with a professional dating service. I could never have afforded this earlier in my life, so I was excited to have high-level, professional assistance in what can be a daunting and discouraging process. On their website and when trying to land a client, It's Just Lunch pledges to "guide and understand you, present the best matches, treat you in a caring and professional way, and be open in our communication with you." The reality is just the opposite. On all counts. Before I continue, I'd like to say that I know It's Just Lunch is going to calmly and methodically respond to my review in such a manner as to make themselves look as responsive and professional as possible . I've seen it in their responses to other reviews (which I tragically didn't read before signing up!). They're going to say things that make it seem like I had a hand in my lack of success or they don't have a record of this and that. Do not believe their words! It's what they excel at: words vs. action. What I'm saying is accurate and I'm writing it in the hopes of saving others from the experience. Here is a list of what persuaded me to pay $5,200 to join It's Just Lunch. Five thousand two hundred dollars! After each point of persuasion, please note my actual experience. 1) A team of matchmakers would get to know me on a personal, extensive basis and use this information to make informed, curated choices in matches. I was never introduced to a "team," but instead was randomly and inconsistently contacted by various It's Just Lunch workers. Additionally, I never felt "known" in the slightest. One prime example was when I was coached to talk about my "travels all over the world" on dates when I had communicated verbally and in writing that I haven't done much travelling. 2) It's Just Lunch membership was strong and there existed a vast supply of eligible men for the team to choose from. In six months, I was introduced to three men. Three. And the third one was only hastily scheduled after I inquired if there was a shortage of men in my age range. To top it off, this match didn't even meet the basic preferences I established when I signed on. 3) My only job, after becoming an It's Just Lunch client, would be to "sit back and relax." Nothing in my entire experience was remotely relaxing. Instead it was long stretches of time with no communication, scheduled and then missed/flaked-on calls, texts instructing me to do things that didn't fit my situation and were obviously meant for someone else, endless back and forth when setting up a date due to the staffer not paying attention to my preferences and/or when I said I'd be available, hearing of a possible match and inquiring into more detail about him, and then receiving no answer or any communication of any kind for a month, being told that I'd be working with one dedicated staffer for the remainder of my membership - who subsequently disappeared with no explanation. I really can't express how dissatisfied I am with It's Just Lunch (a Crock). They engage in deceptive business practices. And there is no recourse - they don't offer refunds of even the smallest amount under any circumstances. After experiencing the opposite of what I paid $5,200 for, I asked for a modest $1,000 refund. Nope. No dice. Not one cent could I get back. And they wouldn't address any of my concerns in any kind of open, honest fashion but instead went into the same song and dance they used in the beginning in an attempt to get me to stay on. No thanks. They deserve to be sued. Don't give them your business! read more

This dating site is a big disappointment. Their charges are outrageous. They promote one thing and do not deliver.

The matching making team is amazing. They make the whole process easy and fun. They are also very professional and friendly.

Just Lunch is a great way for busy Individuals to have dates that are already chosen to help match ones personality. The restaurants that were chosen are wonderful friendly staff and great food! I would definitely recommend all of them. The matches are kind and polite and all great people.. so hoping to find that chemistry that we each are searching for! Thank you just lunch ladies for organizing and putting this all together. Fun but a bit pricey way to find a great guy... they are out there and it's " just lunch" give it a try if you can! read more

****** review at 2 months in (see update below at 1 year) *********** Thank you. It worked! I decided to join It's Just Lunch in an effort to meet someone with shared interests who was also ready for a real relationship. I was matched with a total of 3 men before I suspended my membership to pursue this relationship. I thought Lisa and Moneisha did an excellent job of listening to what it was that I value and truly want. I appreciate that both the men and the women make the investment in the service. It brings a strong clientele of relationship minded people together. It was so convenient having It's Just Lunch handle all of the details of screening men and providing me the cream of the crop. I loved anticipating the dates and showing up ready for success. I have now been dating my boyfriend for two months and while it is still early, I appreciate how well things are going. We seem to be well matched on activities that we enjoy, levels of social engagement, drinking habits, family values and chemistry. Very exciting! I feel confident that without It's Just Lunch I would not have met this quality man. Thank you! I'm looking forward to seeing what the next chapter holds. ******Update****** Yes. I wholeheartedly recommend It's Just Lunch. It's an investment that I've been truly happy with! When I wrote the review originally my boyfriend I and had been dating for two months. We are now celebrating our one year dating anniversary next week. Woohoo!!!! I continue to appreciate our shared values, interests and this feels like a wonderful fit all around. Dating in a pandemic has allowed us to see how the other handles various curveballs. I am confident that we would not have met without IJL and am grateful for this quality relationship we are both investing in! 5 stars! read more
