a little fyi, the pecan pies are store bought then cooked around the holidays
We have been eating at Jay Jay's every week for over a year now. We meet friends for pancake nights. I love the blueberry pancake breakfast or eggs benedict with home fries. Yummmmmmy
They are working to update a little but part of the charm is the comfy, slightly warn feeling. Next time you need a little comfort food-check out Jay Jay's.
ps almost forgot to mention the pies are all made from scratch on the spot. pie making is almost a lost art but not here.
they also have a location on south bowen which has better lighting.
but i love the chicken fried steak... its so tender u can cut it with a fork. the catfish is also really good, they season it well and fry it to perfection.
there is a good selection of veggies and there's a different soup and veggie to choose from every day.
my 2 favorite dinners are:
1.chicken fried steak with homefries and broccoli and a bowl of broccoli cheese soup on friday along with my 2 rolls and a dr.pepper.
2. catfish with a side salad ranch for the dressing.
next time u visit give those a try also try a slice of the strawberry banana pie and the blueberry cream cheese pie.
I've eaten there 5 times this year. The food is all American comfort food. Good portions and good flavors. I agree with the other post on the salads. They need to be updated considerably. The service was attentive and consistent. My servers earned their tips.
Better lighting would be great. The hole-in-the-wall feeling doesn't sit well.
NOTE: Don't go to the website. The horrid grammar alone would give your third grade English teacher a heart attack. Very unprofessional looking. Surely someone who works there could do much better with it. Or at least pay to have a professional one done.
I do highly recommend the place just on food and service alone.

Love the food-just like Mom used to make.
Wish the place had lower lighting, better decor, ambiance.
I'll come back, of course. The service is good, friendly. I hope the restaurant can stay in business, because it's close, convenient and really good food - healthy veggies and good fish (I'm vegetarian)
Would like better salads.
