This spot shares space with a gift shop & florist, so you get the benefit of plenty of plants and floral smells while you eat.

The ambiance inside the building is amazing, the cafe is snuck inside of a flower shop which provides amazing vibes and little trinkets to look at.

There was only 1 waitress and 1 cook until 8:00 when about 5 other employees finally showed up. Our waitress was doing her best and was very apologetic but only 2 people servicing the whole restaurant made every thing really suffer. Food was very greasy and had no flavor. Portion sizes were fine and price was reasonable but we were there for an hour which is very long especially for mediocre food. Staggering when the staff come in would surely have helped with how smooth things could have run. You seat yourself at an open table. Inside is pretty small though clean. There are plenty of parking options around. I don't think we'll be back though.

Even after moving to a larger location, they still often fill up and have a wait! It's just that good. The only "bad" thing I've had at J&J's was the French dip on special. I am a self proclaimed French dip connoisseur, but this one had a very difficult to describe taste. Almost tasted like how you would expect a cows breath to smell? Idk, super odd... Their burgers are fantastic and the heart attack sandwich is super good!

I also recommend booking at least a week in advance. A friend said they couldn't go on said date on a Wednesday. I looked for that upcoming weekend and the weekend was sold out. FOOD: The food was delicious. Despite the tray looks small, I was full halfway in. I have no concerns or complaints of their food. Every pastries, sandwiches, and dessert were delicious. My favorite was the apple chai scone. I love their lemon curd. I love everything on their savory course. I haven't tried the dessert yet. I had to take it home because I had leftovers. The tea was delicious too! It is unlimited. They bring a pot to you. I tried the Mad Hatter Holiday (cinnamon, clove, cranberry & orange) and French Creme Brulee. Out of the two, my favorite was the Mad Hatter Holiday. The Creme Brulee was too weird for me as a tea. They offered sugar cubes, creme, and honey too. PARKING: They had a decent size parking lot on their property, as well as across the street. DRESS CODE: On their website, they mention tasteful, on the side of overdressed. I saw children in sundresses. Women wore jeans with a nice shirt. One guest had a gothic/rocker vibe with her black shirt, pleather skirt, tights, and boots. STAFF: Friendly, approachable, and professional.

Our server was very nice and outgoing, selling us on an upgrade we certainly didn't need but chose anyways. We ordered the eggnog latte, a hot chocolate, griddle cakes, and strawberry pancakes. Everything was delicious, and perfect if you have a sweet tooth! The pancakes were much smaller than I remembered, but it didn't matter either way because we couldn't finish our meals in the first place. They tasted just as decadent as I remembered though! Things are priced very reasonably, given the amount of food you get and quality. My only somewhat negative note is the wait time. We still had about a 40 minute wait, but I would highly recommend signing up for the wait list on the website! Still, it's all worth the wait!

This is a pretty busy location, but moves quickly for how many people were waiting.

Ambience was good and our server was attentive. Parking is in a shared lot, so it's a little hard to find parking near the restaurant. I do wish the waitlist feature was a bit more helpful - this OPH allows you to join a waitlist, but never shares where in line you are which makes it tough to gauge when to show up/join the waitlist. Overall, I'll definitely be picking this OPH over some others due to the faster service!
