Mr. J's Bar and Grill: Reviews & Ratings
Mr.J’s Great atmosphere. Great customer service a shout out to Kobe and Kimmie. They made you feel welcome.. Karaoke night on Tuesday very enjoyable nice sound and some great singers.
So I have been driving by this place for years and meaning to give it try because for the longest time they had this "free Hors d'oeuvres" for happy hour sign outside. I finally got a chance to go in there and I noticed that there was no more sign that mentioned "free hors d'oeuvres"! I would have given 6 stars if they still had "free Hors d'oeuvres. Anyway. The staff was super friendly, even the cook! The atmosphere is weird because it feels like a strip mall nightclub that poses as a dive bar during the day, or maybe it's the other way around, can't tell. Or maybe it's both...I digress. Whatever it's supposed to be, I like it enough to go back even though they don't have no "free Hors d'oeuvres". Good food, GREAT staff, good happy hour drink specials, ok atmosphere.... I'll go back.
This place is absolutely amazing! There make you feel like family! We are all a little family here! Kobe behind the bar is the most amazing person you will ever meet and get to know! Come see him and the atmosphere you won’t be disappointed
Great food! Bartender was fast and funny. Mondo the cook made us the bestest burger. I totally suggest a visit.
This location definitely felt welcoming. Kobe was personable and great bartender. DJ Steven had the 1's and 2's. Pretty fun spot for being a Monday. I definitely enjoyed my time there. I will be back again.......
Great place, the wings were banging and pretty reasonably priced for how flavorful they were. Bar staff was very attentive and honestly everyone in the bar was pretty chill. Pool tables were clean and there are a lot of cues. We'll be back.
This is a great bar!! It has a dj some nights & had local artists performing. There is a dance floor & lots of seating. There are 2 pool tables & slot machines. The staff are all really nice. We will definitely be going back.
The new food from Mando's is amazing. It's hard to find a place that I can eat since I have food allergies. Vegan cheese, vegan mayo, vegan patty, and glutten free bread.. And the drinks are strong and the Blazers are playing. Can't go wrong with Mr Jays.

If you enjoy dive bars with a unique character, you'll love Mr. J's eclectic vibe. As Angelo D noted, while the decor might evoke a strip mall nightclub, it manages to blend lively night energy with laid-back dive charm. The drinks are good, and happy hour specials bring people in, even though the "free hors d'oeuvres" sign may have disappeared. Yet the warmth of the staff and the flavor of the food more than compensate for this small loss.
The culinary highlights at Mr. J's are not to be missed.
