    Veggie Benny
    Patricia K.

    Previously went to the Ewing location but that has since closed so we ended up here. We came on a Sunday afternoon and had to wait until our whole party arrived to be seated. It's easy to miss if you're turning by the light because it's on the corner of the plaza. Our server was very attentive. Drinks all came quickly and at temp. Only downside is this PJ's doesn't offer brunch cocktails if that's what you're looking for. Love that there's plenty of breakfast options whether you're craving sweet or savory. I ordered the Veggie Benedict and it was a great portion size for the price. Eggs were a little more cooked than I prefer but otherwise it tasted great! Could see myself coming back here again when I want a good breakfast nearby

    Came here for brunch with my mom. The service was super quick and there were plenty of seats. The ambiance is cozy with lots of natural light. Ordered pancakes and the smoked salmon omelette. Menu is super extensive with so many options - all the breakfast foods you can imagine. Coffee is very strong - it left me feeling nauseous and jittery but I do tend to be sensitive to caffeine. Overall a very solid breakfast/brunch spot! Location is very convenient near the Princeton junction train station.

    Service was good. They revamped their menu & I enjoyed what I got (potato pancakes) more then the previous times I have been there. :) The previous times were just ok in my opinion. So idk if they changed their chefs too or what, but it's definitely better & makes me more enthusiastic to go back to try other items.

    This hit the spot as 4 of us ordered different breakfast and shared family style. The service was attentive and the ambience was diner style. First time trying PJ's pancake house to see what all the hype was about. We were satisfied! Nice to try French toast, pancakes, and a new breakfast dish!

    Twofer

    What an amazing place for breakfast. This location might be my favorite PJ's. So warm and inviting and the outdoor seating is perfect. The breakfast was amazing. They have so many options but I was feeling that I wanted a little of everything so I went with the Twofer which is two pancakes, eggs, bacon and sausage. Btw I added peanut butter and bananas to my two pancakes cooked into the pancake just how it should be done rather than some places that just toss the banana on the plate haha. Can't wait to go back again. Thank you

    Power chorizo Omelet and pancakes!!  You can skip lunch!
    Kevin L.

    Rita - perfect friendly service. Food came out hot and fresh. Beef chili in an omelet, wow it works! Reminds me of chorizo. Sub potatos for 3 stack pancakes, slight sweet aroma, fluffy af, lives up definitely to the name of the joint. Coffee with a shot of espresso. Awesome. Everything was perfect, price a bit high, but everything has gone up! Muy beuno!

    Omelet, Fresh Croissant, French Toast

    Been to PJ's a few times now and the service and food has always been consistently good. It has a nice intimate ambiance with indoor and outdoor seating. Very friendly staff and quick service. This time I ordered an omelet with turkey sausage and spinach, a side of bacon, a fresh croissant with strawberry jaw, French toast and a s'mores hot chocolate. The omelet was good. A nice size, good amount of salt, and a good amount of sausage. There contained A LOT of spinach and some of it was not sautéed thoroughly, so I ended up taking some off. But overall a good omelet. The bacon had a nice crisp, and a good amount of slices. The croissant was very good. It was warm, flakey and the jam added a nice touch. The hot chocolate was AMAZING. Definitely something to get as we hit these colder months. The French toast was for my son so I did not get a chance to try but judging how he devoured them, I think it's safe to assume they were good. All, PJ's hit the mark as usual. I would recommend T anyone in the area.

    Best Soufflé Pancakes ever!…read more Now that I've actually been to Japan I can honestly say I crave these pancakes more than the ones I had overseas! These pancakes are more fluffier and eggier (I think that's a legit word, LOL), and super rich! If you don't like eggs, don't visit because there is a lot of eggy flavor. I've tried the two dominant flavors, Matcha and Strawberry, and I can't tell which one I like better. The light cream topping is better than any butter or maple syrup I've ever had. There is usually one more flavor that they change from time to time as well which I've heard is great. Going on the weekday avoids the wait. The abnormal hours of operation don't make it easy to visit but if you do you'll definitely enjoy. Book the table on Yelp!

J S Foodies is the latter, a small and cheerful outpost of Tokyo imagination where breakfast behaves like theater. I arrived with my boys and my father in law, a man celebrating another year of survival in a universe that has not yet figured out how to improve pancakes. The space is small, and the famous Kiseki pancakes take their time, about twenty to thirty minutes, as if they are being persuaded into existence rather than cooked. These Kiseki pancakes are not pancakes in the American sense. They are soufflé style creations, tall and trembling, as if gravity is only a suggestion. They arrive airy and delicate, with a gentle jiggle that suggests optimism. We ordered accordingly. I had the lemon ricotta, which tasted like sunlight had been filtered through dairy. My oldest chose matcha, green, purple and quietly sophisticated and complex. My youngest went with the original maple, a classic executed so well it made the classics feel new again. All were excellent, the sort of food that makes conversation pause because mouths are busy being grateful. My father in law ordered what I personally considered a cautious breakfast. Regular pancakes with eggs and bacon. A meal that could have been assembled in any roadside diner between here and forever. Yet even this was handled with care. The eggs were perfect, the bacon honest, the pancakes dignified. No irony, no shortcuts. Yes, the prices are a little steep. But this is not a place for routine nourishment. This is a place for occasions, for birthdays, for reminding yourself that breakfast can aspire to something like art. Five stars, because sometimes the world surprises you by getting something exactly right.

As we were leaving I reconfirmed it with the person at the host's desk ( seemed to be the manager) , who apologized and said maybe our waiter missed it . But it was a noticeable miss that cannot be overlooked, as that was the purpose of our dinner here. End of the meal, our family's spirits fell flat, but we still sang and celebrated sans the petty candle. Now on to the food and drinks... Mocktails were delicious, colorful, and eye-catching . We tried all 3 on the menu and loved it. Appetizers galore filled our table ... Bang Bang cauliflower had a medley of sweet & sour flavors. Hummus pita board - Warm grilled pita was a table favorite with the small portion of hummus and fresh crisp veggies. Harvest salad - crisp lettuce, feta cheese, walnuts, poached and fresh sliced pear, cucumbers, and watermelon radish with rose vinaigrette made this extra special. Crispy calamari - great pairing with pickled veggies and arugula basil aioli. We ordered an assortment of entrees with all seafood choices . Salmon with risotto , Halibut & Branzino cooked to perfection served with flavorful sides. For dessert, it was the warm brownie with vanilla ice cream and peanut butter cup . The brownie was soft and not too sweet, slightly warm and it vanished in a few seconds. Peanut butter cup was a dense donut texture with candied peanuts We hoped that at least one of the desserts would be served with a candle as we were celebrating a birthday but they missed it and didn't care enough despite letting them know when marking the reservation. I loved everything about the experience at Agricola, but their lack of attention to detail stuck out like a sore thumb , as the poor communication between their front desk and wait staff dampens the guests' experience , making it a not-so-great finish .

In contrast to their far more expansive location in Morristown, the Princeton location is noticeably more "intimate" with Manhattan inspired table crowding. Not enough to detract from a wonderful meal but certainly worth noting. Five stars all day long. PS... no credit card surcharge. A surprise that certainly puts a smile on my face.

It's been around for several years, but I had never gotten around to visiting since it's in an odd location of a shopping complex that I rarely think of visiting for a meal. Unfortunately, I visited on a Sunday afternoon when they had taped a message up on the door that they didn't have a cook, so their kitchen was closed. Staff looked bewildered, explaining to me and several others that they were short staffed and couldn't serve food, but can do drinks & pastries. I figured I'd order a croissant to try them out, but the cashier refused to accept payment via the Inkind app, saying that all the other Bluestone Lane locations would take it, but they stopped accepting it. The encounter had all the hallmarks or a poorly managed business on the verge of shutting down. After my visit, I reached out to Inkind customer service, which must have followed up with the business and they insisted that Inkind is accepted at the Princeton location, so their employee who refused it was misinformed or just made up her own rules. Regardless, I won't be returning or recommending them to others due to such a poor first impression. There are better options for coffee and quick meal within a few minutes radius.
