We are from out of town and saw this place on yelp. It's right across from our hotel so we went there for lunch! This place has high stars for a reason! We were extremely impressed. We were seated right away, there were 5 of us. Had time to review the menu and place both drink or food orders at same time rather quickly. Food arrived within 10 minutes of ordering and my god! The food portion sizes are ginormous!!! You get more for your buck that's for sure! The photos don't do it justice! The food was delicious and tons of options! Lots of lighting, seating and friendly customer service. Here's what we ordered with photos to give you an idea how huge these plates were. 1. Pancake Breakfast (3 pancakes, eggs and bacon)! He said it was pretty good. 4.2 stars. The bacon though tasted different and didn't feel like it was fried fresh. But other than that he liked it. 2. Two of us got Chicken strips and fries and these were not strips. These were like 3-4 whole chickens lol. I've never seen anything like it but they were so delicious! The fries were amazing. And I'm very picky on fries! The ranch was amazing as well and I'm a ranch snob. Very picky but this stuff was so good! 3. Chicken bacon ranch sandwich and sweet potato fries! She liked it but said her chicken was a bit dry. She would try something else next time. 4. Chicken Ceasar salad - it was pretty big. She said chicken was dry though and didn't really care for it too much or eat more than a couple bites. She ended up eating my chicken strips with me. She wouldn't get it again but shes also a picky eater! If you love salad this thing is huge. *She loved the chicken strips of mine she ate. Also had a Side of fries for the table as appetizer. Overall this place was so good and we would absolutely come back and try more items as there was so much to pick from. I highly recommend it. Only reason it got 4 stars vs 5 was cause their sauce was expired and gross colored and he was unable to use it. This place was also super affordable!!! read more

My mom, my youngest son, and I came in for dinner tonight. When we were seated, we noticed a dirty cup ring on the table and asked our server if it could be wiped. She said yes, but walked away and didn't return for about 10 minutes. When she came back, I asked again if the table could be cleaned so my mom wouldn't put her jacket in it, and also requested a kids menu. She huffed, wiped the table, handed us the menu, and walked away. Another 5-8 minutes went by without any greeting or drink order being taken. A second server (with long hair, who said she was the GM's daughter) came to ask if she could get us something to drink. We ordered two waters and a root beer. She then asked the original server to take our food order. When the server came to the table, she didn't greet us or say anything--just stood there. I finally spoke and suggested she start with, "Hi, what can I get started for you today?" and we placed our order. The food came out incorrectly at first (brown gravy instead of white), but it was fixed and that part was fine. While we were eating, my son needed a root beer refill. I placed the empty cup at the edge of the table, but the server ignored it. After waiting about five minutes, I went to the counter to ask for a refill. Only then did she come up and ask what I needed. I asked her for a refill and requested to speak with the manager. Another employee went to get him. I explained what had happened and told him this would be our last visit. He didn't seem overly concerned. I understand being short-staffed, but this level of disregard for guests is unacceptable. When he asked what I would like to see done, I said additional training for the server. He didn't even offer a free meal which I was expecting after the way we were treated, or heck even just take care of the whole bill. It was only $28. The food here is amazing, but due to the service we experienced tonight, we will not be returning. read more

Had a great meal at JS Diner! We ordered two of their gluten-free burgers with crispy fries, and both were absolutely delicious. The patties were juicy and well-seasoned, and the GF buns held up perfectly--no sogginess or weird texture like you sometimes get elsewhere. The fries were golden and crispy, just the way we like them. Portion sizes were solid--super filling without going overboard. It's the kind of spot where you can get a satisfying meal for about $20 a person including tip, which feels like a great deal these days for the quality. Server was a little ditzy and took a while to get to us. Also it was a little loud but I like the openness and well lit room. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to. Great for a casual bite that doesn't feel like you're compromising on taste or ingredients. read more

We came in for breakfast on a weekend and were seated right away for a party of 3. It is a typical breakfast diner, with good service overall. - Chorizo scramble (3.5/5): Cooked well, good flavor, but could have been seasoned better. Not bad but not super impressive. - Farmers omelette (3.5/5): Large portion size, and with hash browns on the side. Hashbrowns were a bit bland, and not very crispy. The omelette had good flavor and paired well with hot sauce. read more

Came in tonight 12/21. 1 server in the dining room and another one in the bar. We should have taken that as a sign to leave, but apparently we learn lessons the hard way. There a man that was in a teal apron in and out of the kitchen coughing into his hands in front of the counter. Did not get asked if we wanted drinks. I ordered a BLT. It sat on the window counter for so long the lettuce was soggy. There was no tomato. My husband took his little slices off his burger so I could have them. The bacon looked burnt, but was just hard and over done. Bread was sort of toasted, but so lightly toasted that it was more like stale bread. Husband's burger was over done. I almost just sent mine back, but we would have been there all night. I know the waitress has been working doubles (because you could hear her all through the restaurant telling everyone multiple tables) but this was absurd. A reminder of why we stopped going here years ago, and we won't be giving J's anymore chances. read more

We've eaten here twice now. The first on Sunday, when it was the only option aside from fast food. Then Monday, because Sunday's dinner was so good. Sunday, I had New England Clam Chowder, which from the east coast is a tough sell. But it was perhaps the best clam chowder I've had that I haven't made. Bacon slices could have been crisper, but that's just nitpicking. My husband had a fantastic chocolate shake, amazing fries, and a super delish grilled cheese on sourdough. The next night I had a ceasar salad, and he had another shake and breakfast for dinner - eggs, rye toast and hashbrowns. Simple food done right. You can't beat it. read more

My husband got the fish and chips- he rates it 8/10 and I got the mac and cheese with fries!- I rate it 6/10. We both recommend getting fries. They are beer battered and super crispy. The ranch is homemade and so delicious. Portions are a little small read more

My husband and I had only passed by this place before, but decided to stop in this morning--and we're so glad we did! The food was delicious, and I can't believe we hadn't visited sooner. The service was excellent, and the staff is wonderful with kids, which made the experience even better. Our server, Tasha, took exceptional care of us and did a fantastic job. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. We'll definitely be coming back! read more

Once this was my go to place. For the price it was a good value. Never again. Ordered a omelette with ground beef, onions, spinach,, sour cream and mushrooms, they've made this several times for me before.; it's similar to San Francisco Joes. What I got was a hamburger patty cut in half , spinach and onions, no sour cream or mushroom. To top it off the potatoes and toast were stone cold. I offered to pay full price, but when I told the manager about it I got only excuses. Go somewhere else. There's Newbergundian or Black Bear Diner across the street. Too bad, it was a good place. Oh well things change. read more

J's it's not fancy it's classic diner food. That being said, it's always good!!! They serve breakfast lunch and dinner all day, and their burgers are a half pound of deliciousness! The menu is similar to Black Bear Diner, Shari's and Denny's... But the food is in a league of its own. On our most recent visit, we had the Bacon Cheeseburger, Chicken & Waffles, Liver & Onions, and the Ranch Skillet. Everything was cooked perfectly (including our Medium burger), and tasted great. read more

I've been here twice and have been seated at the same table each time. I love it! Supreme tater tots! And homemade ranch! Last time I was here I got a waffle with eggs and bacon. I love that they give you like three bacon options: smoked, peppered, or turkey. Are you kidding me?! HERE FOR IT!! You know I stan a peppered bacon. And I love the options! In general, not my favorite place ever, but way better than Shari's and fun to support a local spot. read more

Fantastic food and place. Carol was great and we really enjoyed our time so much the first day we were in Newberg that we went back the next day. Food, prices, service, and ambiance were all great.

It disappoints me to have to write this review. We have been a long time patron of J's. It has, in the past had consistently good food and service. There have been times when it has been erratic. The restaurant has gone through a recent facelift, which was needed and nice. In the last many months, perhaps a year or more, the bar has been understaffed, especially during busy times. The big change now has been the food. About two weeks ago, I ordered a Reuben sandwich, which I have had many times before. It was, comparably, dry and not nearly as tasty or complete as it has historically been. Next, a patty melt. The bread was burned. Last night a small group us ate there. I ordered the BLT (add avocado) and onion rings. The bacon was black, not quite a burned flavor, but hard and tough. The onion rings were so overcooked as to be inedible. Another in the group got onion rings that were the same. If that wasn't poor enough, the "rings" were remnant pieces that looked like the chips at the bottom of the bag. I wish I'd taken pictures. Not sure what is going on, but the management has a big job to do. I know of several people who have, in the last 4 months, quit coming to the bar at all because of the poor service by some of the workers. These were long, long time customers The sign is boasting '50 years' of going strong. I hope the issues are remedied soon such that there will be many more. read more

First and foremost let's start with the waitress-bartender-customer service representative, Tasha. Tasha set an amazing tone for the visit. The beer was cold, food delicious, the burger was one of the best I've ever had. Tasha is one of the most cheerful, efficient waitresses I've witnessed. Management should give her a raise, as she represents what great hospitality should be. Not fancy, not pretentious, just great experience!! read more

Absolute horrible service. Food was not great. Waitress came to our table twice, to take our order and give us our food. We had empty drinks. They messed up our order in a few different ways. They forgot a whole item and it took 20 minutes for them to make it for us after getting our meals. They didn't check up on us at all. The icing on the cake was they gave us the wrong bill not even our orders. Waitress was doing anything but check on tables like just stuff that seemed like busy work. Waitress seemed to not give a f... either read more

They have THE BEST food!! It's our go to place! Everything is fresh, deliciously made and great portions. Their clam chowder is out of this world; patty melt is scrumptious; the benedicts are killer and generous; french toast is amazing; salads are great, especially the caesar!! read more

this spot was just what I wanted for breakfas! It's clean, and bright and the aesthetic is . I had some of the sourdough toast which was delicious and the hashbrowns are probably the best I've ever had. Definitely would come back! read more

I'm always on the hunt for the next great breakfast spot... My daughter suggested J's and said it is a local favorite for breakfast, lunch and dinner! The grandkids love breakfast and so we decided to give J's a shot.. Great Decision! Spectacular breakfast -," J's omelet" was just the ticket for a rainy morning in The Willamette Wine Country! My granddaughter had the strawberry waffle and my daughter chose the Sitka Benedict! While the food was excellent, the server was even more of a treat. Annie made the breakfast unforgettable and insured we would be back... Dinner menu includes the favorites... Steaks, Fish and Chips, Salmon, meatloaf and even Liver and Onions. Great stop if you are touring the Wine Country and would like a good meal before our after! Great Stuff! read more

We came to get The Meltdown" grilled cheese. One of our party had been the night before and was talking about how much bacon was on the cheesy blt. We did notice there seemed to be much less bacon than there was on the sandwich the day before. I did not order the meltdown. I ordered the Greek omelette. The omelette was filled with spinach, feta, tomatoes, and olives. We all enjoyed our meal. The restroom were clean. And the restaurant was also clean. The one negative I really feel strongly about was when we walked in not one of the 5 staff members even acknowledged we were there. They all were busy when we first walked in but each turned and walked away without even a nod. It was very very strange. Once we were seated the service was much better. read more

One day I was hungry while out and about, using Yelp to see what was nearby. Breweries, distilleries, cideries, wineries, wine bars, taprooms, higher-end dining (requiring reservations) and fast food. Where are all the middle options nowadays? Apparently diners are no longer a thing, and I'm not talking about Shari's, Denny's or Coco's. I am talking about the smaller, family run places that focus on breakfast, sandwiches and classic dinner entrees. I'm sick to death of seeing the same restaurant format repeated over and over again, and I will be the first to say that brunch is overrated. Sorry, rant is over, but wanted to provide context on how I found J's. I got a breakfast skillet which was not only delicious, but the portion size was very generous. I think I paid around fifteen dollars for it- I also got a short stack of pancakes which were the perfect texture. My favorite is that they provided their house syrup instead of maple syrup- another controversial opinion, but maple syrup is too watery by itself! It needs to be blended with other ingredients to form that thick consistency that is so satisfying. The location is a bit weird- it's next to a hotel and can be a bit tricky to find if you aren't expecting that. The service was very kind but a heads up that the restaurant appeared to be a bit understaffed- likely not their fault, but don't expect lightning fast service. I didn't try their pie and other bakery items, but will put it on my list for next time. If you're looking for a more traditional, relaxed meal then J's is recommended. read more

The food was fresh and hot. Plenty of space, it is after all a motel restaurant, clean.

This restaurant is located near where I was staying and I was told the food was decent. I had the meatloaf dinner and it was the perfect comfort food for a rainy and cold January day. The waitress was friendly and helpful- I will return there to check out their breakfast. read more

I had lunch at J's and I ordered a Reuben and potato salad. The Reuben was fine. But the potato salad was rotten. No flavor, like a dish of boiled potatoes. There was no apparent mayonnaise on it and no other vegetables to give it some flavor. I deducted two stars for this.. read more

I really like their pepper bacon, their turkey dinner and the consistency with which I get grandmas home cooked meals.

I enjoyed my stop in here at J's. My server Annie was an absolute delight. She possesses a kind, genuine spirit that is not easily found in todays society. I arrived at noon, and was sat immediately. Ordered chicken fried steak, and it was delicious. I am sure I will return to this establishment. read more
