I am giving this place five stars because six is not an option. Chris (our waiter) what a class act! Thank you sir! The food... though, as if the service could be topped, everything my wife and I had was absolutely delicious! This was an unscheduled stopwhile passing through but a memorable one nonetheless!

Had lunch there today with my brother and son, like always, food was delicious! Our waitress-Alicia was wonderful, friendly &... sweet. Food came out hot and perfectly made! Atmosphere was welcoming and it felt just like home, conversations betweenstrangers and ourselves felt nothing less than family conversing. Thank you! Read more
Excellent place to eat breakfast. I ordered the country style potatoes, eggs and bacon with a homemade biscuit and gravy. The... biscuit was soo delicious and a meal in itself. The historical photos of Porterville on the walls are a nice touch for thoseinterested in the history of the town as well. Great, friendly service as well. I highly recommend this place. You won't bedisappointed. Read more
Back in town for a week, from our home in Texas. I was able to make the Rodeo, and spend some money at other businesses in... Porterville. Had breakfast at RJ?s this morning. Had the western omelette. The food and service were both good. I recommendsupporting this business. Read more

Soooo good! Our first time there was Tuesday morning. Around 10:30am. Not crowded. Love the calm atmosphere. The waitress was... super friendly. Came by more than once to check on us. Food was amazing. Price is just right. The country potatoes were myfavorite. Good cup of regular coffee, sugar, and cream. Parking lot filled up as we were leaving. Read more
I'm not sure what has happened to this place. The new ownership? My order was incorrect, but I let that go. Things happen. But... one would think that when a plate of food is untouched and put at the edge of the table for clearing, the waitress would ask ifthere were any issues. Nope. The egg salad sandwich is just a sliced hard-boiled egg with gobs of mayonnaise on plain whitebread. No seasoning. Not even served with lettuce on the sandwich, which had to be requested, and it was wilted. The chicken andbacon ranch warp was a poor excuse for a wrap?low-grade stringy over-cooked bacon, mounds of wilted lettuce, in a cold tortillawith no flavor. The kid's special pancake is my son's absolute favorite when going here, and that wasn't even up to par. Thegrill/griddle needs to be clean when serving speckled black pancakes. Then the waitress stated that certain things (cheese andonion) were extra that was clearly printed on the menu as standard to the item (chili-size). The waitress never asked how thefood was or if we needed anything else. We had to get her attention for a drink refill. We had to flag her down to get thecheck. Literally, the table was cleared, and we were sitting there waiting. I want to say this is because they were busy, butthat was not the case. She'd walk by the table and not say a word. Now on the best thing about the whole dining experience,remember that food that was not touched? I saw an employee come out from the kitchen area with the same food, sit for whatlooked like his lunch break, and eat that food. Now, I'm not upset he ate the food; good for him. It didn't go to waste. I amupset that I paid for that food and wasn't even asked if there was an issue. And you probably shouldn't have an employee eatsomeone's uneaten food next to them. The disappointment I experienced in one visit to this place is incredible. The customerservice and quality of food have taken a hit. Just another hometown favorite going under. A complete waste of $90 Read more
