The great staff, homey background, and absolutely delectable food are all to die for. Now about the food, I personally went for the jerk chicken, which if you have ordered before you know is usually either an overly spicy mess or the best decision you've made that week. Thankfully at MJ's it was the latter, with bursting spicy, sweet, and salty flavors that created heaven between 2 brioche buns. Also, the blue rice was a nice touch. Even the bathroom looked like a mini spa, with the sink looking like the material it's made of ends in "ite". Summarized, best restaurant ever. 10/10 recommend.

The restaurant had a tropical shirt miami beach theme that made me want a golden girls kaftan. We had a larger party so we booked a reservation the night before. Our table was ready on time and we were quickly seated. Our sever was attentive and quick to get drink and food orders. I wasn't drinking but the tropical summer theme certainly carried over into their drink menu. I ordered the poutin-ish for my meal not quite sure what curry I would get and happily it was Japanese style curry sauce. It was a perfect meal for the morning. Would love to go back again sometime.

    Okay so we went here on a Sunday which was good because there was literally no crowd. Reservations…read moreare definitely recommended on Fridays and Saturdays but Sundays not so much. The wait staff was very nice and our particular waitress was very informative. We had calamari for an appetizer and it was exceptionally tasty. For the main courses, we enjoyed a seafood risotto and a rather large chicken pot pie. (Yeah I know, getting chicken pot pie at a steakhouse is kind of unordinary but it's one of my weaknesses) The pot pie was pretty good. The crust was really good but the filling was standard with others that I've had (not those nasty ones from grocery stores either, but other restaurants). My wife had the risotto, I of course tried some the seafood flavoring throughout the rice itself was done perfectly. The seafood that was in it was also prepared exceptionally well, with one small detail that I would have done different. When you're putting shrimp on a skewer next to a steak for example, yeah I can definitely see leaving the tails on but when you incorporate shrimp into a pasta dish or a rice dish like risotto, to have to take the time as the custer to cut the tails off or reach your fingers into your food and pull them off... Personally I would like to see that down in the kitchen before the dish is served. It was still very tasty, just that one that'll detail that I personally would change if it were my decision to make. For drinks the wife had a blue Hawaiian and I had their red edition of a Long Island iced tea. My wife doesn't like the taste of alcohol in her alcohol sold a blue Hawaiian worked pretty well. Had a really good coconut flavor, and my iced tea in my opinion was a little strong. I'm not saying that's a bad thing overall however it didn't taste as good as Long Island's in other restaurants. I might be a little outside of the normal here but when I order a mixed drink, unlike 30 years ago when my goal was to get hammered, I don't necessarily like it stronger I look these days more toward the flavor of the drink. This one was good, but in my humble opinion it had a little too much alcohol in it.

    I've been here a few times over the years as I have family who goes to the casino and likes to take…read moreus to eat here. Honestly it's kind of a drag; the food overall isn't great but isn't awful, but the service is slow even when it's not busy. The wait staff is nice but forgets to bring drinks or is not attentive. To go more into detail on the food, the quality varies depending on what you get and between different components of a single meal. Seems like any meat and seafood is prepared well, but vegetables less so. When I ordered the vegetable risotto, I thought it was bland, and the asparagus and tomatoes were over-cooked but the brussels sprouts weren't cooked enough. I ordered the seared scallops last time and the scallops were excellent as was the salmon I tried from one of my family member's plates, and the crab cakes are also amazing. The coleslaw side was not bad but very pedestrian, like the stuff you can get in a tub at the grocery store. I really enjoyed the whiskey bread pudding and the cheesecake, the key lime pie was just too sweet and one-note for me - all the desserts are big and very sweet, so I think it's best to share. I guess it's a good choice considering what's available at Tioga Downs, especially factoring in the more sophisticated atmosphere here compared to the restaurants on the casino side, but I myself would not choose to come here were it not for family obligations.
