- CCCass1 day ago1.0I had a really disappointing experience at this location. Our server was extremely rude from the beginning..short with us, visibly irritated, rolling her eyes, and creating an uncomfortable atmosphere. Honestly, after ordering drinks we considered leaving but decided to stay and give the food a chance. To be fair, my partner’s burger was excellent. Unfortunately, my beef dip was not. The beef tasted off.. either undercooked or spoiled/sour. I only ate a few bites before I immediately started feeling nauseous and sweaty because something clearly didn’t taste right. Because the interaction with the server had already been so uncomfortable, I didn’t even feel comfortable bringing it up. I just stopped eating and we left after paying our bill. Overall, the experience left a really bad impression. Between the poor service and questionable food quality, I wouldn’t recommend this location.
- MSMolly S.2 days ago5.0We had a great experience here today dining with two young kids, one of whom has food allergies. Really lovely spot, great service, and the chicken strips were some of the best I've ever had.
- CRConnie RedironMay 12, 20265.0Laura has made my experience so amazing at this OJ’s location! I loved the fish tacos with Valentina’s hot sauce! I will be back more often as I work downtown. Definitely recommend sitting at the bar and having Laura as your bartender!
