It was good, meat was seasoned, cheese was ooey gooey all throughout, they don't just use bell peppers, but a sweet pepper, threw me for a loop for a second, but I liked it! I'm glad they don't have tomatoes, lettuce and Mayo in their philly, Im not a fan of soggy cold veggies. Overall thoroughly enjoyed, I wonder if I could get double meat next time..

Service is such you order at the counter and it was efficient. I am a fan of crab and was elated to try the crab on a bun sandwich. When I pulled it out of the bag, I was side eyeing the size but there was plenty of crabmeat on that bun! It was lightly seasoned and had a fresh taste to it. I so enjoyed the sandwich. I also loved the tomato and olive side that I decided to go with. I feel like I got two meals in one because the side was filling enough to probably be an entree. I will be a repeat customer as I enjoyed my first visit.

I ordered the catfish plate and it came with 3 pieces of fish, two rolls and fries. The fish was seasoned perfectly. It was fresh and absolutely delicious. The rolls tasted like Hawaiian sweet rolls and they were soft chewy and very tasty. I was also able to snag a picture of the bbq Wing plate. It wasn't mine. It belonged to another customer. But he said it was delicious. I also really liked the fact it appeared to family owned and it was family working together. That's the absolute best. Cons. The wait was longer than I would have hoped. The staff kept getting the orders confused. Two menus is very confusing. And parking could be better. But overall I give Big John's restaurant a score of FIVE! Because I enjoyed my meal and it was a great deal.

After ordering one lunch special and three salads i discovered why. if you were on a lunch break you won't make it back in time. service is attentive but moves slow. the kitchen moves even slower. i tested this theory by observing other patrons that entered. almost all appeared to be retired or not currently in the work place. the food was good but by the time my special arrived it wasn't hot. salads were good and delivered just as ordered. it's a nice restaurant, lighting was a bit dim for lunch and looked like more of a dinner time ambiance. i'd give them another try, maybe i caught them on an off day!

We started with the onion rings and fried cheese balls, which were hot, crispy, and definitely worth ordering. The burgers and patty melt were cooked well and came with perfectly seasoned crinkle fries. Dessert was the real star of the meal. The peach cobbler was warm, buttery, and full of fruit, the pecan pie was rich and gooey, and even the simple vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce hit the spot. I also appreciated the variety of Southern sides available: mac and cheese, turnips, black-eyed peas, lima beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, broccoli, salads, and more. Service was friendly, portions were generous, and prices felt reasonable for the amount of food we received. If you're looking for comfort food and homemade desserts, Jo's Diner is definitely worth a visit! **forgot to get a picture of the rest of the menu, but I'll get it next time :)

I really really don't like having to leave reviews for restaurants that aren't 5 stars, but I've…read moregot to be honest about my recent experience here. To start, the menus were absolutely filthy. They had food residue and greasy fingerprints all over them, and were torn and ripped in places. I was shocked that they do not at least have their menus laminated for this very reason. Everyone at our table noticed this and commented on it. This is a horrible first impression when you sit down at a restaurant, and needs to be corrected ASAP! I used to always love coming to Jo's diner over 10 years ago. I would usually get breakfast, and it was great. I decided to get something different today, and I think I just ordered the wrong thing. I ordered a house salad with fried chicken on top. They used to have this on the menu years ago, but I didn't see it; however, our server said she could have them make it for me. What I got was a small side salad ($5) with barely any chicken on it. The salad was in a little bowl, and had ONE chicken tender on top! I was even more surprised when I got my bill and noticed that I was charged $8 for said chicken tender. So for $13, you would expect to at least leave not hungry. I would've been better off just ordering a chicken tender platter and subbing the fries for a side salad or something. Lesson learned, I guess. Our server, Scarlett, was very attentive and really sweet, so that was a good thing! I love the vintage diner feel of this restaurant, and it brings back a lot of nostalgia of visiting "Brent's" in Jackson with my mom as a child. The next time I eat here, I will either get a daily blue plate or go back to getting breakfast. I just don't think salads are their specialty. I will come back and update my review if I do go back and it is better. (*Management: PLEASE get rid of the 3.5% fee for using a card as payment! I purposely avoid restaurants that do this to their customers. I used to work for a credit card processing company, and know that it is against card brand regulations to surcharge debit cards, which it clearly states on the bottom of your receipt that you do. This is a good way to get a hefty fine from the credit card companies. All it takes is one phone call from a disgruntled customer.)
