    Breakfast burrito with bacon, ham and eggs, but that's it
    Julian E.

    Skip the burritos.. almost everything else is good here the coffee, the croissant, the donuts. The staff is very friendly and the place is always nice and clean even early in the morning when everyone else is grumpy. These guys are super nice... but the poorly made burrito did not have any hashbrowns too much onions and not enough or any seasoning at all lots of meat and eggs tho..

    This donut shop is more than just that. They have coffee and sandwiches too. Service is quick and efficient. They even have a place to eat. Parking lot is a bit small.

    I keep coming back to TMJ Café & Dough for their veggie lover omelet--it's seriously the best around. It's packed with spinach, onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, avocado, and cheese, and every bite is just bursting with flavor. Plus, the owners are amazingly personable-- she greets me by name every time, and even though I usually order delivery, when I go in, she will still remember my go-to. If you're looking for a healthy, feel-good breakfast with a personal touch, this is the place.

    The good: I ordered fresh orange juice, a lavender latte, a prosciutto sandwich, a Dulce de leche donut, honeydew milk tea with boba, and an egg, ham and Mayo sandwich. The sandwich was well balanced with fresh vegetables and a nice kick from horseradish. I liked the added pickles and the many options for bread (we opted for sourdough but options included ciabatta, wheat, and more). The interior has a bench area and four booths. There were many donuts on display with basic ones costing under $2 each. The overall price for everything we got was under $50 which was a great deal. The boba was soft and enjoyable. The coffee was really enjoyable and had a deep roasted flavor. The store was neatly organized and they sold lots of chips and bottled drinks as well. The menu offered a lot of options that included smoothies and milkshakes too. The bad: There's no outdoor seating area. The sourdough was just okay. The honeydew milk tea was on the sweeter side. My husband said the Dulce de leche tasted like the canned cheaper kind. The interesting: It's hard for me not to think of temporomandibular joint dysfunction when I see TMJ.

    Ham and Cheese Jalapeño Croissant

    Found a hair inside my ham & cheese croissant! Disgusting. When I brought it back, the workers looked at the croissant and were not very apologetic. I had to ask for a refund because they didn't even offer it which upset me. I felt like they were extremely rude because they kept asking me many questions and even asked the worker who sold me the croissant if I originally paid for it.... Never coming here again!

    I've driven by this cafe several times and yesterday I made time to study and get some work done here. The energy was fresh and the three women working were all professional and very helpful. I was given great suggestions on sandwiches to try, ultimately I went with the turkey TMJ on a croissant and I had a chai tea. Everything was delicious and the ingredients were fresh. Seating was plenty and the place was buzzing the entire 2 hours I was there. I was so please I decided to wait to try dessert just so I could take the family back. My only critique was the restrooms were not available to customers which is one of the main reasons I wrapped up my work, I had to go. Lastly the music was upbeat which was nice but some of the songs had profanity and vulgar language. A preset playlist or a better station like the wave would be more ideal for an establishment that serves a wide array of diverse cultures and age groups. That can be off putting if you have your children or parents with you.

    Maple bacon, Boston Cream, maple bar...

    Excellent, friendly service. Fantastic prices. The dough was fluffy, sweetness was just right, the Boston cream was custard not whipped topping like we wanted. We will definitely be back to try all the other flavors. The photo doesn't do it justice. Thank you!

    LOVE TMJ Cafe! They have the best donuts and breakfast burritos! Every time I come back home we always end up grabbing some TMJ for our little brunch get togethers. My husband and i ordered a bunch of breakfast burritos, assorted basic donuts, and we got the bran muffin and orange dreamsicle shake to try and everything was soo good! I appreciate that their breakfast burritos are hearty, packaging is always nice, and donuts are always really fluffy! The bran muffin was solid and the shake was so addicting! Service is always quick and efficient. If you have a large order, place it online and they'll have it ready for pick-up. Ambiance is casual. They have a parking lot but it's more of a takeout spot as there isn't too much seating inside.

    Large Iced vanilla latte
    Marisa A.

    I have driven by this place so many times & never stopped. I was wanting coffee but not from that S chain. I decided to stop here & give it a try. Luckily it was not crowded & I was able to talk to the employees & ask what iced latte was more popular. I could not decide between the caramel & the vanilla. The employee recommended the vanilla. It was amazing & I will definitely be back. I'm trying to find a good coffee place near my office and I found it.

Had plenty of carne asada mixed with other ingredients that packed plenty of flavor. Pricing not too bad especially for the portions that you get. Service is perfectly fine, can order ahead too. Overall would def come back especially if looking for something filling.

I ordered "the melrose" which seemed to be their flagship sub. It was at the top of the menu--seemed to be basically a turkey bacon ham club type of deal with a kick. Despite there being probably at least 15 ingredients, all I could taste was mayonnaise. The entire texture? Mayo. Blech. I didn't eat the second half. Solidly OK if you like mayonnaise. Who knows. Maybe "the melrose" just ain't the thing to get here. Not so sure I'll be back though.

    Another pleasurable visit!…read more I ordered the Farm Club Sandwich and forgot to ask for ciabatta bread instead of wheat. Even after placing my order, the staff was happy to accommodate the change, which I greatly appreciated. The sandwich, paired with the tomato basil soup, was phenomenal. It was loaded with turkey, smashed avocado, smoked bacon, pickled red onions, and fresh greens. The flavors blended perfectly, creating a sandwich that, in my opinion, is far better than anything you'll find at Panera. After my wife and I finished our meal, one of the staff members, Zeron, kindly offered to clear our trays and bowls. Service like that never goes unnoticed. As always, the atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming, with plenty of indoor seating as well as outdoor tables for those who prefer to dine outside. Thank you for another delicious lunch.
