Visited J. Christopher's for the first time this weekend. Wasn't sure how things were gonna go after waiting for quite a few minutes for a server after being seated. I counted 21 people in the restaurant for brunch, plenty of servers, but none came to visit us. Finally had to ask for someone to take our order. Once we got a server there, things went better on that side. We ordered our food and I was pleased with the amount of food we received. The skillet bowl was very good. Definitely they need to improve service. read more

Second time here. The service (provided by Jasmin) was excellent. She is very pleasant, professional and consistently efficient. This time, I had the traditional breakfast. Eggs were ordered over-easy and arrived perfectly prepared. Bacon was crispy and the pieces were large. Overall, my second experience here was as outstanding as my first and I expect it will be this way, credit to the server! read more

Service was slow. They forgot to make our coffee. Food was ok overall. Cinnamon roll was not as advertised. I wouldn't order that again. read more

No complaints here! There were not many cars around the restaurant when we were there around 10:30 am on a Tuesday. We were a bit hesitated to stop by but figured why not. It was nice and quiet and we enjoyed the view. All 3 different breakfast dishes came out hot and perfectly prepared. The blueberry crunchcake was memorable! We never had pancake that good! By the time we left, it was delightful to see more customers. Wish this restaurant all the best. We'll have to come back for more. read more

We eat here once a month with friends. It has always been fine. I ordered a chicken breast, eggs, and sliced tomatoes. The chicken looked like a pork breakfast chop, dry, and a quarter of an inch thick. I had to cut it with my pocket knife which snapped on the plate each time I cut. The $3.00 sliced tomatoes were two slices, a dollar fifty each, and the eggs were like rubber. I will go to Waffle House, order the same, and send the J Christoper's manage a picture of how it should be served. read more

We haven't had a great experience at this location any time we've gone. The food itself looks like it would be excellent if it was served warmer but it's hard to enjoy because they are so slow. Always understaffed and we do see their hiring but it's even slow when there are just a few guest/tables sat. Have to remind the wait staff to bring things often having to get up to find the staff. If you step inside and have to wait to be seated; that's your clue it's probably not a good day to eat there. They gave a small discount for the long wait which we didn't inquire about and luckily they did remember to remove the items we never received. We were ready to go already so it wasn't worth the wait for the side of bacon and specialty coffee ordered. read more

While you can expect that brunch on Mother's Day can be busy with long waits, during our visit after waiting for over an hour, another group took our spot on the wait list when our name was called. I looked visibly disappointed and Martin was exceptional with making the moment right and ensuring we were seated right away. He brought a calm and friendly energy to the situation. His customer care was certainly a 10/10. read more

We had a party of 10 and it went absolutely perfect. The food was out on time and tasted fantastic! and our waitress Uniqua is the best, she made sure everyone was taken care of. I highly recommend J.Christopher's. We will definitely be back! read more

It was my first time ever being here out of my whole time living in Atlanta for 8 years and not sure why I didn't come sooner. My husband and I ordered the blueberry crunch pancake breakfast and that is definitely the best pancake I've had in a long time! Enjoyed it so much went twice in one week. Also we had an exceptional waitress who made the experience that much better. We now have a breakfast spot in the neighborhood we enjoy. read more

J. Christopher's - Blueberry Crumble Pancake - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dacula, Georgia

Our server Ivet was super pleasant and good at her job! Servers make their own lattes here and I drank half of mine before I remembered to take a photo. It was DELICIOUS. My husband ordered the Bubba which comes with scrambled cheese eggs, fried potatoes and biscuits with gravy. He described the gravy as having the perfect amount of seasoning and consistency. I ordered the Strawberry waffle with whipped cream, bacon and a side of cheese grits. The bacon is quality, the strawberries were fresh and THE GRITS were silky and delicious. The experience was good, we'll be back! read more

Pros: I love the food and have made a few fun memories eating at other locations with friends and coworkers. The blueberry pancakes are the BEST!! The interior is usually fairly clean and bright. Cons: Both times I have been to this location, staff (from hosts to servers) seems unfocused and confused. Almost like they struggle understanding their own roles. Servers are hard to find and you spend a lot of time waiting for things (extra napkins, silverware, drink refills, etc. read more

This is not my favorite breakfast/brunch location, but my husband and I will drop in to get a bit to eat when we are in the area. I always go for the Benny, but this time I decided to go for the Eggs Christopher which contains smoked turkey, tomato, and bacon. Unfortunately, my egg was over cooked. Overall my experience was okay. read more

After 30 min (only one other couple in the restaurant) I was served basically RAW eggs Benedict. They were so gracious to only charge for me the tea I drank while waiting for raw food. Last visit here. read more

J. Christopher's - Raw eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dacula, Georgia

Gave this place last chance today. It's always been way overpriced. But when the food is bad too... Cold potatoes. Cold bisquits. Cold gravy. Second and LAST time this has been the case for me. On a positive note, the waitress was nice enough and the scrambled eggs were done. 8:30 on a Saturday morning and I was the only customer. Guess word is getting out. Appears this breakfast place may soon be "toast". read more

The food was good it was a very chill place my kids enjoyed it I definitely want to go back I very much enjoyed it!

my wife and I went in to eat breakfast this morning. only 1 elderly couple, like us, eating in the whole restaurant. we ordered and it took a while to get our meal BUT. the pancackes were somewhat dry, the grits were lumpy and had been sitting a minute or two before being served to me. the biscuit was very dry and crumbly for my wife and the potatoes apparently were made much earlier because they were dried out. her sausage links had a little kick and should have been cooked a little longer. we went because we had a gift card. frankly, I don't know how they stay in business without much business and the quality of food. WE WILL ONLY RETURN AND FINISH OFF A GIFT CARD FOR TAKE OUT SALAD OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. read more

Hubby and I went to get a late breakfast from J.Christopher's which is not too far Fri our house. We waited 12 minutes before anyone took our order and that was after my husband complained, no one was in the restaurant. The manager brought us a complimentary cinnamon roll for wait with an apology which was very nice. The waiter was pleasant. I ordered a skillet corn beef hash. The eggs were good, but the potatoes were burnt and hard. There was very little corn beef hash in the skillet. The restaurant was clean, but we will not return. Hubby ordered an omelette which was good but he had the same terrible potatoes. read more

Food was good but service was terrible. Sunday morning you would think that place would be packed but it wasn't. The waitress was very slow to bring coffee, food and refills but she wasn't busy at all. She kept apologizing for being so slow but didn't fix the situation. Now we know why the restaurant wasn't packed for Sunday brunch. Will not return. read more

We had a wonderful brunch experience today. Our server Abigail was very attentive and our food came out quickly. I had the Pantry Feast and my husband had the Route 66 and both were delicious. Sorry no pictures as we started eating to quickly as it smelled so good. We will definitely go back. read more

Terrible customer service. I don't know how to even say this lol... it was definitely awkward being there. I don't know why.. the customer service was so off putting and I won't name names, nor will I assume the reason. I should have left but I was really hungry and far from atlanta. So I walked in and asked the host if I could sit at the bar she was polite and said yes. However once seated at the bar 2 of the waitresses started to argue in front of me on who was going to help me. Neither one of the wanted to wait on me. Which okay sure but don't do that right in front of me. It was so awkward and tense that the strange nice man seated next to me offered to take my order jokingly. It was that bad. It kind of hurt my feelings. 2 stars because the food was good. However not cool to feel unwanted. read more

Very nice. I read other reviews and was not sure but gave it a chance. I was told new management made it much better. I recommend this place. Food cooked perfectly and server was friendly. read more

This location has gone totally downhill! My Family use to frequent here all the time. Last two times we walked out because the service was so bad!! No one would take our order and we felt very awkward! Bad management is what turns a once great location into potentially closing. It's only a matter of time at this rate. I've seen it happen so many times! Poor service and poor management means people preparing your food are careless! I'm done with this location! Buyer beware! read more

First of all the parking lot was hard to get to. Go early. We got there at 8:45 on a Saturday and was pretty empty. We had the 2 egg, hash brown and English muffin and I had the veggie omelette and fruit and subbed the crumble blueberry pancake. The omelette was very overcooked. The pancake had no flavor and the crumble was soft. Can't mess up fruit. Will try again but pretty hard to mess up breakfast. read more

It's been a while since I've been to this restaurant, and I now remember why. 11:30 AM. The place was not busy. Sat at our table for 12 minutes before a waitress showed up and that was after I flagged somebody down and told them to find someone to wait on us or I was leaving. I ordered a waffle and requested at the time that I ordered sugar-free syrup and additional butter. The order arrived with regular syrup, and no additional butter. The food was not hot - not enough warmth to melt the waffle butter. The waitress returned with the sugar-free syrup, but forgot the butter. Now the food is cold. My wife had the blueberry crêpes, which were also delivered cold. Poor service, cold food, mediocre taste. Won't be back - a shame as I live close by. read more

This place has so much potential, but the food was not very good. Potato's were really hard, pancake was pretty good, but I think my wife's steak had passed the expiration date because it had a weird smell and taste to it. We got a new one and it tasted a lot different. read more

Hello my name is Xavier smith. I have only been to J Christopher's twice now and I am not satisfied with the customer service.The "white girl up front and the black one are extremely rude threating to kick me and my best mates out if we do not tip even though we can't afford it because of personal reasons. she even said "like they would know it was us". which shows lack of empathy and just complete and utter disrespect. I highly recommend not eating here if you do not meet their financial standards. The manager also said and i quote "if u can not afford to tip you people are not welcome back in this establishment" read more

I've been there twice now and just been told i'm banned because I can't afford to tip the waiters when I came prepared to pay for the food i'm only 18 years old in college. They told me not to come back unless I have tip money which is devious work. read more

Tried to grab breakfast for a nice rainy morning and the nice came to a Screeching hault when calling this establishment to hear they'd "run out of sausage". So I began to compromise myself and ask if the replacement offered of turkey sausage meant I could have a $1/2 off since they didn't have what they should. I was refused. Wow! Lovely customer service!!! Thanks for making my morning ... NOT!!! read more

Potatoes were raw even after sending back. Server did not come back and check to see if fully cooked. Everything was undercooked and cold slow service . This location has gone downhill try Flowery Branch read more

Came to eat brunch on a Saturday and after a lengthy wait to get our drinks we placed our order. And waited. And waited some more. My wife finished her coffee, I finished my drink, and then... No service. The person who took our order never came back to check on us, never refiled our drinks, never gave us an update on our order. Almost an hour passed when my wife attempted to get the attention of our server and she ignored her. We left, paying for our drinks. We never plan on returning. A shame, because this USED to be a place we enjoyed. Worse service I have ever had. read more

Not really sure what the hype is with J. Christopher's as better omelet dishes can be found at other joints one exit north on 85 like Jack's or Pat's Eatery. Maybe going at 11 on a weekday - that not-quite-lunch, but just past breakfast time (wait, could that be ... brunch? The meal that J. Christopher's is known for?) - when their staff is turning around, wasn't the wisest of choices because many of the tables were still sloppy, the wait to be seated (when it was close to empty) was pokey, and the service was less than stellar. I was also surprised to notice that the shelf running between the booths was a thick layer of dust that was starting to settle into sticky territory from the food's residual grease wafting in the air. And speaking of grease, the omelet that I ordered was slippery and nothing extraordinary, and the vegetables that made up its filler were scant. On the plus side, I like the eclectic art on the walls, and that they leave a carafe of coffee on the table for ease of warm-ups. The restaurant's location, tucked in the shopping center's hidden corner, was once a Mellow Mushroom and while pizza is a farcry from breakfast fare, I think I would've preferred a greasy slice of pie to my omelet. read more

J. Christopher's - Cold toast made me sad. But the fruit medley wasn't bad! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dacula, Georgia

This is a pretty good place for breakfast or lunch. They have all kinds of breakfast items and soups, salads, burgers, and sandwiches for lunch. I really like the fact that they offer a few Gluten Free items as well. I really like there Bistro salad: "a mix of baby salad greens topped with goat cheese, fresh strawberries, dried cranberries and sweet and spicy pecans", and one of my husband's favorites is the Eggs Christopher: "poached eggs nestled on a bed of smoked turkey, crispy bacon, sliced tomato and English muffin; all smothered in hollandaise". read more

Sorry can't review as I couldn't make a reservation for my group until Wednesday because the manager was not In until then! Dig!! So unfriendly and not helpful at all so we went to another J Christopher on Peachtree industrial! We had 21 members join for our holiday brunch! We left hefty tips because the service was outstanding and the staff overly attentive' we'll come back here where we feel welcome. read more

Wanted to get out for a late breakfast/brunch after Church and came here based on the hype. In the old corner strip mall with Iron wok still booths like Mellow Mushroom or all the other failed places in this spot- but clean and somewhat crowded. Just me and my son, almost 1pm on a Sunday and no line. That was odd .I thought it would be packed. I generally like to go somewhere that I can't do anything better. So we both order the Egg Benny- one reg one Christopher, potatoes or grits. Got a side of bacon just to see what they offered- crispy thick cut, greasy thin cut. Have to say, not impressed. The eggs- I could have easily done at home as well as the potatoes and grits. Diner type place, mostly young people running- service was good but food just didn't do it for me. 2 eggs beeny and coffee $36 with tip. Eggs were cooked perfect, just a standard eggs benny with turkey instead of Canadian bacon, bowl of grits just like waffle house, and thats it. No special twist, a casual, less than classy atmosphere, so not sure why $11 for the entree. Then the bacon have to say was awful. First, they forgot it. Then it came out- undercooked, lots of fat- so greasy I wrapped it in my cloth napkin and the 3 small this slices of bacon soaked half the napkin with grease. Rolled it up and hid it in the napkin. Took a couple of bites and knew it would kill me so just not impressed. Some of the sandwiches looked ok but just not impressed enough to come back. It was fine, but again if I'm paying $40 for breakfast, I expect a classy atmosphere, a bit of creativity in the food and tastes. Will do at home next time and save $30. Sorry guys. Just didn't do it for me. read more

This is the WORST location. I went into the restaurant this morning. Beat the crowds. Walked in for myself meaning one person. Nobody was at any of the tables or bar and I was told there was a 10 minute wait. Yet nobody was there. It was a strange exchange between myself and the host. I sat down for 10 minutes. Looked around at an empty bar and restaurant. Still didn't get sat. Very strange. I decided to leave after the rude host exchange and as I was walking out I looked back at the host and a group of waiters that watched me walk out. Very strange, customer service needs to improve at this location. Didn't see a manager in sight. read more

Food is always great, except for bacon...lol I don't like it cook so well done, but hey if you do, you will love it! We have started going every week and our server is Lexi! She is wonderful. Don't go expecting more than a standard chain restaurant and you won't be disappointed. read more

It is what it is. Chain breakfast. Were my poached eggs still runny? One of the two. How about my daughter's? One of the two. Was there hollandaise? Yes. Was it broken? Yes. The pancake was great and the service was friendly. Just go to WaHo... read more

For a little God mother Godson quality time, I ventured to this place for breakfast. So far everyone seems super polite and professional. The speed of service is also noticeable. My waiter was a man by the name of Brett who seemed to stay on the ball with making sure everything was ok. I ordered the French vanilla caramel which was good a little on the sweet side but delicious none the less. My Godson ordered the blueberry pancakes topped with granola and whipped cream,and I got the grits with bacon and jalapeño. Definitely great food. The flavor of the grits was evident and the jalapeño added the right amount of spice. I'll definitely come back. read more
