Remember I've said this before, This is just my opinion. Give these places a try for yourself as well. You can easily miss T.J. Cafe If you're not looking for it. Heard about this place through coworkers who suggested it for lunch. First off the Customer service was great very nice people. Place is super tight when it comes to the eating area and restaurant its self. There were about eight of us and it took up a good portion of their seating area. Probably more of an order and go place. I got a breakfast burrito which was good, (kind of forgettable) when I try out new places for myself, I like to order the simplest thing on the menu. My thought is, if they can make something so simple really good then the rest of what they make should be even better. Breakfast burrito was plated nicely for presentation. However it was a bit expensive for a breakfast burrito in my opinion (which is everywhere you go now days). Wishing them nothing but the best in their future endeavors.

Went back to TJ's always so sweet. Best fries. Crinkle cut, best shape for crisp. Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. Served hot and seasoned with seasoned salt. Breakfast burritos are 5/5.

asada TJ's Breakfast Burrito
Michele L.

Fish Fridays! Every Friday during Lent, grab a crispy Fish Sandwich!! Skip the fast food fish sandwiches!! This fish sandwich is flavored packed with a crispy beer battered tilapia, beer battered jalapeno slices, slaw with Asian dressing, chipotle aioli on a toasted brioche bun!! A sea-riously fin-tastic sandwich! Carne Asada Tacos for the win!! Each bite was an explosion of flavor! Taco Tuesday Special: 2 Tacos, Rice, Beans for $10 + tax. Wonderful customer service. Indoor seating.

12 " Breakfast Torta
Ernest M.

Food: I got the breakfast torta 12'. I got the recommendation from the chef to get chorizo out of all the meats. This meal is plenty for one person especially getting chorizo meat. It really does feel like your dad cooked it for breakfast. Service: order at the counter and they deliver it to your table. Ambiance: clean, lots of inspiration on the wall. College games going on at the moment. On three weekends parking is easy to find.

Chile Relleno Plate
Sebastian C.

I've been wanting to try TJ's for quite a while now. The amount of highly rated reviews, the fair prices, and great pictures reeled me in. I had high expectations for this place so let's see if they hit or miss. Here's what I ordered: **Huevos Rancheros: One of the worst huevos rancheros dishes I've had in my lifetime. The tortilla chip and my sunny side eggs seemed like they've been sitting for a little too long because I could not slice it up with a knife. Everything here was lukewarm. **Chile Relleno Plate: I've had a lot of subpar chile relleno dishes in the past but this one beats them all at being the absolute worst. I'm used to my chile rellenos having gooey cheese stuffed inside instead of cold/lukewarm blocks of questionable cheese. The plate was extremely salty to the point where I threw over half of the chile away. **Denver Omelette: Do they use real or fake eggs? Definitely fake eggs because it had a very weird bready texture. The potatoes served on the side were salty to the point where we threw 95% of it away. I had ordered sourdough toast that came complimentary as a side but that was nowhere to be found and just had a little thing of jam. When I arrived, there was a table of two waiting on their food, one person waiting for a to-go order, and a phone call with three orders that were placed when I was waiting at the register. They were given a 15 minute ETA so I went with that. I ordered my food at 11:03 AM and did not get my food until 11:28 AM. I had to also ask for salsa on the side and I was given two little to-go cups. The interior has a really weird layout and it looks like it was designed as a to-go type of restaurant because of how narrow it is. The ordering station is tucked into the back of the restaurant so you can't see the progress of your order if you were curious to see where your food is. This little shop is tucked into an industrial strip with no proper signage available. The parking spots are also extremely tight and the road is very narrow. Food is definitely on the more affordable side but everything was so salty. The rice and eggs did not seem fresh at all. The service could be a little better. Didn't know what the hype is for TJ's but it did not come close to my expectations. I'm sorry but this was a one and done for me.

Breakfast burrito
Justin P.

This is a pretty small cafe with limited parking. Tends to get busy during lunch time. The food they serve is like half Mexican and half American. I ended up getting the breakfast burrito and I have to say unfortunately it was ok at best. Lacked seasoning so it was pretty bland. The salsa that it came with helped a bit at least. Also got the strawberry horchata which wasn't that good either. For some reason it was on the thicker side and lacked any of the cinnamon or strawberry flavor. Honestly I will come back here to give them another try and see if the other items are good.

Veggie Breakfast burrito 5/5
Elizabeth P.

Been wanting to try this local spot for awhile now with it being so close to our house. Veggie burrito was very solid. Place is small so we noticed it's more of a take out order spot. Kids finished most of their food so we'll definitely be back to try their other burritos. Service on point.

Came in for the first time yesterday, hubby and I were looking for a good sandwich place close by. Walking in was not what I expected. The guy at the counter was very friendly, but I felt very out of place. Maybe it was the loud corridos playing in the background, or the looks from a few of the other employees as they'd walk by, just didn't feel very welcome, like they are only interested in speaking to you if you speak Spanish (which I do btw). I ordered a BLT 6" combo. It came with lots of fries, but the sandwich itself wasn't very good. A BLT on a baguette is for me, not the best choice of bread. The bread alone was great, just not for that particular sandwich. The bacon wasn't too crispy and got kind of lost in whatever aioli was used. My husband ordered the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and that seemed to go well with the bread. Maybe this is more of a breakfast or brunch place, maybe more of a to go place. Either way, not sure I'd come back, at least not anytime soon.

Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich
Anthony I.

I was driving by and saw the "best Philly Cheesesteak sandwich" sign and decided to stop. I was not disappointed at all. The best Philly Cheesesteak sandwich I have had. Got the spicy version with serranos and jalapeños. It was absolutely delicious. My son had one too and absolutely loved it as well. Highly recommend this little hidden gem. I will definitely be back.

Beef Quesadilla Plate
Vanessa L.

Just stopped by randomly since we were in the area on a Thursday morning, and it was a great find!!! Not too busy, but the storefront may be easy to miss since it's within an industrial strip lot, just read the signs. The food was SO GOOD! My bf and I got the quesadilla plate and fajita plate and it came w so much food! Probably the best quesadillas I've had in a long time, perfectly melted cheese, fresh meat, didn't taste rubbery etc. and the sauces paired great. My bf enjoyed his fajitas, although he said the sauce was too spicy for him. Glad to have found this spot!

Breakfast burrito with mocha latte. Yum!
Leo G.

Saturday brunch had TJs breakfast burrito --- excellent! --- with a mocha latte. Ate in, calm vibe despite 3 TV screens with NCAA football. Service very friendly, attentive. Only 5 tables plus counter seats, filled with variety of diners including families. Nice place, would recommend it.

Philly Cheesesteak
Connie T.

Met up with my friend who found this place on yelp. We met here for lunch. I ordered the Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich 12inch with combo and was able to finish half the sandwich and fries. Seasoning was missing something but it did hit the spot. I also order the pastrami sandwich togo for my husband. My husband said the pastrami is a bit too salty. Service was good. Small sandwich shop which was in the industrial area. I did miss the turn like several times to get her because their sign isn't that prominent.

Looking for something to have for dinner with my girlfriend and pirates kitchen had good yelp…read morereviews. We walked in and were seated immediately. Ordered drinks, and perused the menu. We settled on an order of garlic noodles with garlic bread for a starter and the seafood boil for 2 as a main. We substituted scallops for the craw fish as neither of us are big craw fish fans. There was an upcharge which we were fine with. The food came out quickly and was nice and hot. Since we ordered the everything seasoning it was well spiced and flavorful. We ate as much as we could and got a to go bag for the rest. It was more than my girlfriend could eat as leftovers the following day. Price was reasonable and the food was good quality and generous servings. We will return. Nice mom and pop restaurant feel, eat local.

Ordered 1lbs of shrimp head on mild was ok…read more1lbs of clam mixed seasoning 1lbs of shrimp peeled Cajun fries Chicken tender Garlic noodle, tastes good but small portion. My personal favor is cajun style head on shrimp. Fresh, not too salty, little bit different taste compare to boiling crab, but I liked it. Different but delicious~ Added potatoes, corn, and sausages. They gave us large potatoes, and liked it!!! Fried side order was great. Very crispy and good price. The chicken tender meat was fresh. Must order one steamed rice and mixed with sauce for the last steps. Yum~~ Nice service!!! Very clean restaurant!!! Definitely coming back!!!
