I really enjoyed my visit this morning. My server was superb, very attentive, knowledgeable & recommended the grilled chicken omelette!! It was amazing-she even suggested adding pepper Jack & jalapeños to give it a an added kick. Great place, cool vibes, & awesome staff! read more

Jo's Diner - American Near Me - Flowood, Mississippi

Went here for the first time today and absolutely loved it! The food was amazing! I got the country fried steak with lima beans & mashed potatoes and it was so good! My sister got a breakfast sandwich with eggs and bacon on it with a side of grits and love it too! Their mimosas are also good and the atmosphere itself is very cool! read more

Jo's Diner - Blue Plate Special (country fried steak) & Breakfast Sandwich - American Near Me - Flowood, Mississippi

The food was amazing wasn't expecting that kind of food for a "diner" themed restaurant. Service was good although wish the server would have introduced himself and maybe talked a little more with us maybe helped point us in the direction of what to eat based off his own person opinion or even tried to sell us on milkshakes, after all it does help increase the percent of his tip. Being more personal makes all the difference! read more

Waffles and ice cream every Sunday morning!!! Woohoo!!! Can't wait!!! Love Jo's. They are my Sunday morning family!!!

When you walk in it looks like a classic 50s diner with a bit of a modern twist(wooden tables) The Beignets are very nice,but beware of the powdered sugar(it gets messy)Oveeall Great Experience! read more

Joe's Diner is what I expect in a diner. It has stainless steel. It has 50's decor. It has a rather upscale menu for a diner. And it has a bar??? But it feels like a diner, has the chairs and booths like a diner. You can get a wide variety of food from the menu anytime and they will customize it without a blink of the eye like a diner should. I was seated quickly, drink on the table and order taken before most other places would even look up to acknowledge you walked in the door. I was surprised to see a full service bar on the way to the table. There were burgers, shrimps and grits, salads, sandwiches. It wasn't in the menu but I saw it delivered to another table, and asked for a chicken friend steak sandwich on sour dough, dressed. No problems. You you like fries with that? Let me tell you. I had a great sandwich. The fries were just right and my drink never got below half empty. The price was right and I will be back. If you are looking for fancy dining this isn't it. It's a diner. And a darn fine one at that! read more

They're usually noticeably understaffed, but each time we've gone we have enjoyed the experience, the drinks & the food! We usually go for brunch, so that's all i can really vouch for, but it's good & satisfying! read more

This has nostalgic decor in it. Food is typical diner food. Eggs , toast , grits , bacon, biscuits and gravy , sandwiches. Food quality is ok. Service is quick . read more

Met a friend, her kids, and her mom here that I had not seen in years They chose this location because they had beignets and her mama wanted beignets. Our server was Kirsten and she was super friendly and attentive, offering great suggestions. We ordered a round of beignets for the table and while they were loaded with powdered sugar, they were definitely not a substitute for the real thing. They were not light and fluffy, but overcooked and tough. My friend had the sirloin Benedict and it definitely looked yummy and she said it was tasty. I had the country quesadilla because it offered a little bit of everything and that seemed to be what my taste buds had a hankering for. It was supposed to have pico but it did not and just seemed a little dry. I did ask for it to be brought and I was brought store bought salsa which is not the same thing. I know it's being picky, but it was definitely one of the selling points of the dish for me. There is no comparison between the two and no explanation was given for why I was handed salsa instead of pico. Normally, I would not go to a restaurant rated this low on yelp, but when someone else requests it, I will give it a chance. Jo's diner wasn't horrible, but I probably wouldn't go back anytime soon simply because I think there are probably better options in the area worth giving a try. Kirsten on the other hand, wins a gold star for being such a trooper! She was willing to give us whatever we wanted, whether it was on the menu or not! read more

This is a great place to come for breakfast or lunch. I can't say anything about dinner because I've never been here for dinner. The prices are very reasonable and they offer a much appreciated military discount. The waitstaff are extremely friendly, very courteous, but they do seem to be a little understaffed and overworked. I say this only because there are times when it seems that the wait for your food seems excessive. That would be my only complaint though. The food is really on point. I can't speak too much to the overall menu as I have only had a couple of things. You find something you like and you stick with it I guess. The hamburgers are incredible. The one with blue cheese is usually the one that I stick with. Make sure you get the onion rings. The only other menu item I've had is the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes. This is the meal that I will probably want to have on my deathbed. Great place to eat but be ready to wait. It's worth it!! read more

Damn fine burger! 1/2# of hand formed/flat-top cooked goodness. Service was great and the burger came as fast as a 1/2# of fresh chuck can arrive. Flowood could have a new under $10 burger champ! read more

Over priced appetizers... 2 tiny crab cakes for $15. Food was nothing to write home about.

Always love a good 50's theme diner. This location is quant with good character. This was first visit and for breakfast. Delish! Went with the traditional breakfast just to not have anything too heavy on stomach for a day of flying. Scrambled eggs, wheat toast, grits, and andouille sausage. Mmmm! The French Toast, Pancakes, and Waffles looked great! I'm thinking waffles next time! read more

My experience was an overall disappointment, the place has seem to really go downhill. When me and my family placed our order we had some modifications to what we wanted. But it seemed to be completely ignored when the food was prepared. I asked for eggs scrambled medium and got cold eggs that were scrambled hard, they forgot the sausage, and I had to wait on my hash browns. Once I had everything, the bacon was nasty and tough to the point I didn't eat it. I guess they changed the brand but that was a bad choice. My mom ordered the French toast with blueberries and they forgot to add the blueberries but once it was fixed the French toast was nasty, it tasted burnt. My brother also had issues with his food being wrong that he sent it back because he felt like they just didn't care. He feels that with inflation prices that he should at least get what he wants how he ordered it, which you can't really fault him for that. Last thing, I like to have water with my food but for some reason why the water here taste really weird and it's been like that before this experience. I thought it was just the city but I went to another restaurant in Flowood and their water was just fine so I'm not sure what the problem is. read more

Jo' s diner is the ONLY PLACE IN THE RESERVOIR FLOWOOD North Brandon area to find great pancakes!! It's a perfect diner true to the sense of diner food with a balanced southern flare for the excess of calories. If your in the area and want pancakes without driving 30+ minutes to find an Ihop this is the ONLY place! I would give them a 5 but sometimes they scotch my pancakes read more

I love this place. The ambience is great and everyone is pleasant. I cannot get enough of their seafood omelette. I love to meet up with a few people, so you can share. Their pancakes are light and fluffy. I wish they had a fruit pancake?? It's always busy, but they are able to seat you quickly I went to Joe's diner to eat their delicious seafood omelette! It was a to go order. Unfortunately, it was the seafood pasta. I called them, and spoke to Shelly, the manager. She was unbelievable. After we spoke, she said she was going to have a meeting. I was so impressed with her due diligence! She gave me a gift certificate for the omelette, and a few extra dollars. I love this restaurant, but if you have a problem, just say something. They listen! Thanks Shelly I ordered the seafood omelette on Monday. This is my go to. I ordered through waiter. Unfortunately, it is not on the waiter app. So, I have to call the restaurant and tell them, then I order a different omelette, with the same price price. Confused? So, I ate the seafood omelette and a few hours later, my stomach went off. I had food poisoning. I was in the bathroom for 2 days. For breakfast I had my usual yogurt and fruit. It's Thursday, I am feeling better. I called them yesterday and told them what happened. I asked for the manager, so I guess it was him. It was a la de da!! I was so I'll! I couldn't believe the attitude I got. I will never go back there again. Please don't contact me. I was a regular and brought many people to Jos. I'm sorry that I did. I owned my business and I would have never treat anyone like this! So, goodbye seafood omelette. read more

Bre Smith, Tayler G (never walked past me and my customer without asking if everything is ok) and Austin B (I thought he was a grill master.. Come to find out he is the GM with his sleeves rolled up helping with the Lunch Rush Crowd. , Travis,- just to mention a few of the OUTSTANDING EMPLOYEES that are like family from the minute you walk in the door. The Breakfast is the Best in the Jackson, MS Tri-county area. Don't waste your time at Ihop, waffle house or the Broken Egg (that had a line out the door- because they are so small). If you grew up in the South and Love "Real Southern Cooking"- Jo's Dinner is the BEST!!! read more

We visited Jo's Diner today and it was very unique. The staff were very friendly and the food was excellent! I highly recommend and we will be back! read more

This is my favorite place! Soo soo soo good! The sweet tea is always good and it doesn't matter if you get red beans and rice, chicken and waffles, or chicken Alfredo. It is all soo good! read more

After eating here a second time we've decided it's just not worth the money! They advertise that "you might have to wait but the food is fresh and wonderful"... So not true!!!! My "hash brown casserole" was frozen dry potatoes with a little bit of Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. My ($14) crabcakes Benedict tasted so fishy I'm sure the crab hasn't seen the ocean in many months. I was afraid to eat it for fear of getting sick. Very disappointing but all they get is two tries. I guess we'll go to Cracker Barrel next time. read more

We had great service and the food was very good. There was a wait, but it moved quickly. Cute, 50's style diner. Large portions.

My shake was great as always.....the rest disappointed. My wife's omelet came out almost 5 minutes after my phillysteak sandwich. So, I ate a cold cold sandwich. The kitchen's failure to remove the stems from the grapes my wife ordered as her side added nothing positive to the meal. For the record, the philly was salty. The waitress was pleasant and attentive. To her credit, she did apologize for the slow food but that was it. read more

It's a good place to eat. Good service, prices, and a vide selection of good food. The brunch menu has good waffles as well.

Pros: convenient location, open on Sunday, retro decor, fast seating, friendly staff, low cost. Cons: food was a disappointment: over cooked eggs, under cooked hash browns, soggy bacon, and low grade coffee. Feel like I wasted my Sunday brunch by choosing this place. I've had better food at a Waffle House. read more

Our order: two waters, chocolate Oreo milkshake, two chef salads, and a chicken Alfredo. People: 3 (me, my mom, and my grandmother) I have been here a few times. The wait has always been a little bad. However, what really made me give them one star was I waited 15-20 minutes for my shake. As a prior waitress I do understand that on busy days shakes take time, BUT when I can see you on your phone and staring at the window as if food is going to come any faster instead working on something (like my shake), that's not good service. Neither is ignoring our table. Finally when I got my shake, I was happy to finally have a drink. On top of that the wait was bad. We watched the one of the chefs go and talk to a table for 15 minutes despite the fact they had a large amount of tickets. Then two tables that came in after us got served and we had been there for 45 minutes. Thats not good considering our order. Finally the manager ( I think) helped us and comped our meal and put in to go. That's great news, until I hearthe servers literally cursing about my mom and m e for her mistakes. No ma'am you do not get to do that for your fault. While she was bitching I saw our Togo orders ready. I waited 3-5 minutes before finally deciding this wasn't worth being bitched about to where I can hear. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. As a prior waitress I understand busy days, but ignoring a table , cursing where you can be heard, and no communication sucks. I wish I would have gotten her name. read more

I come here often and it is typically a good experience with polite attentive servers, but today was tad different with our server being very distant and not visiting the table besides to take the order and drop off the food. No refills nor were we every checked on when the food was dropped off nor after the food was dropped off. My wife and I needed some mayo and some ranch for our sandwiches we ordered and we waited and waited trying to get the waiters attentions but everytime we seen him he was running off full speed and mind you it was not during peak hours around 2:30. So we just became a little unappetized and disappointed so we just finally asked for boxes when he finally came back and decided to leave without even eating. read more

They just turned me away in a wheelchair. We were well before closing time but I guess the staff didn't want to deal with us at 2:30 when they were supposed to close at 3. I should report them for violating the ADA and denying me service. read more

This is absolutely a disgrace! I ordered the "crawfish etouffee" it was instant rice, Rotel sauce and tomato sauce! It was absolutely disgusting and tasted more like a chip dip with hard rice. Friend at the time ordered a jack and coke and it was 90% water it seemed. Horrible staff. It was very dirty when I was there. I see why we was the only people there at lunch time . read more

Went back again to give them another chance. Food was good. Service was good. They just need to train their host/hostess on how to seat people example two regular size adults cannot sit back to back comfortably behind each other at a table setting. Tables are way too close to each other. There should be at least 3 feet between the chairs. read more

I want to start off and say the service was good. We loved our waitress, but the meal it's self was disappointing. I ordered the jumbo pancakes the first time it came it wasn't cooked fully the inside of the pancakes was just batter. We told the wait staff they took it back. When I got it back it still wasn't cooked very upsetting. read more

I had the pancake breakfast and my parents had the traditional and Belgian Waffles breakfasts. Everything was cooked perfectly and was delicious! The coffee was good, and my parents both enjoyed their breakfast as well! I'll definitely be back - it's not often fried eggs and hash browns are cooked perfect! The whites were cooked and the yolk was runny,which to me is perfect! The hash browns were crispy on the outside, and yet tender on the inside - again, just how I like them! The pancakes were very yummy, and everything was warm and fresh! Unlike others complaints, the hostess was prompt and friendly and our waitress was kind and attentive! We were very pleased! read more

I am not sure what I was expecting but this was a little different from the traditional diner (They have a full bar!!!) The service was fantastic. Our waitress was fun, informative and prompt. I ordered a bloody mary while we pondered over the menu. This is probably one of the best bloody mary's I have had in ages. I have to admit I was a little disappointed they did not have a Ruben on the menu but there are so many other good choices I soon got over it. I cannot wait to go back and check out their breakfast. read more

The omelets are amazing! A little greasy but amazing! For the last few mornings, I been stopping in to get a omelet to go on my way to work. The omelets are pretty good size and reasonably priced. I'm full off one omelet and I have a big appetite. I have been there too many times in the last two weeks lol. I feel like a stalker now. I'm going back lol. Trust that! read more

I was seated, got a drink and didn't see anyone again for 15 minutes. I left, I don't typically do that but service was non existent.

This use to be a local gem. However, it is now a restaurant in decline. With inattentive waiters, poor quality food, and constant menu changes or at least wait staff with no knowledge of past or current promotions/offerings if their still the same. This place only redeeming quality is the relatively cheap meals. Note: Of late (several months) they have had a sign up constantly trying to hire new waiters and cooks. This might be the problem with the food. Perhaps they are so severely understaffed they can't function properly. read more

Well come here when it's not super busy you'll wait 45 minutes to an hour on your food to be ready and one time me my mom and my aunt went there to eat breakfast and the service was terrible and saw the waitress drop a plate yeah I wouldn't eat here very often read more

We were in on Saturday, Jan 2 and were treated so ridiculously we will not be back - and we were regulars prior to that. A man from the back brought us our food and said to my husband, "I hate what you're wearing and I hate that team." He then stood there staring at us waiting for some kind of response I suppose but our waiter walked up and my husband just started taking to him and ignored the talker. He was not our waiter and had no business commenting one way or another about what he had on. Our waiter was obviously new and young and didn't know what to say or do. I realize it's hard to get workers, but this guy was not new to this restaurant and his comments were totally inappropriate and offensive. Our food was cold and should have been returned but there was no way after that comment that we would send it back. We just paid and left and won't be back. read more

Good food, fair prices, and good service. What could be better than that? They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, and they have a complete bar. Bloody Mary's, Mimosas if you want a cocktail with your breakfast/brunch. I also give bonus points for NOT being a corporate restaurant, not a Waffle House, etc. My only complaint would be that the decor is standard '50's diner style, with the usual Elvis/Marilyn/Dean iconography. It's a bit cliche'd, but I don't go to diners for styling. read more

Went there for the first time in 5-6 years for brunch. Breakfast was amazing and the bartender made a wonderful house Bloody Mary. Tons of food for the price. read more

Great choices of a meat and lunch menu. Superb milkshakes and malts. Service was good courteous and a smile. Not much of awaiting area but seating moved swiftly. read more
