Stopped by CJ's today and was not impressed at all. We were told to sit wherever we wanted, so we did. It took about 10 minutes to get a menu and I ordered a Diet Coke and was served a water. We were given Mother's Day menus and told we could only order from that while all other tables were ordering from the full menu. We were going to leave, but then were offered the full menu. My steak was ordered well-done and it was very burnt and dry. My wife ordered a burger with fries and the fries are different from what they used to serve and a much smaller portion. The old fries were much better... All around this was my worst visit to CJ's. Â We might try it again down the road, but it won't be on the top of our list as it has been in the past.
Review Source:Excellent place, hands down. I love the drink specials on Thursdays and Saturdays...2-1-2 Basically this is how it works... $2 Mixed drinks from 9-10pm (Virtually almost anything you can think of...I drink 7 and 7 and they actually use Seagram's 7 and not some knockoff whiskey) $1 Beers from 10-11pm $2 Mixed drinks again from 11-12am You just can't beat the deals they offer here. Plus the patio is great, it's even packed in the winter time with 6" of snow. I prefer to hang out on the patio in the summer though and relax by the bonfire pits. Great food too.
Review Source:I've been here on different nights at various times, parking or seating has never been an issue. If it isn't super hot outside, it's nice to sit upstairs on the deck. The restuarant downstairs has comfortable seating and there is a bar side with karaoke and a dj on various nights.
You can't go here expecting to dine at The Whitney. This a basically a bar with an extended menu. I've almost always ordered the Sante Fe Chicken Pasta dinner (yummy) and my bf gets a burger w/ fries. We have never been disappointed. I wouldn't order a specialty drink, it seems their drink making abilities are limited. Everyone there is pretty friendly.
Some info I'd like to add... they allow smoking on the deck :( not cool for people who are dining.. it is against the law now anyway.. Whoever CJ is, he must not care!!
this is the first time i've been here since it changed over from peppi's. my experience was so so.
there is a deck, it is nice and there are heaters for when the sun goes down and the music was good until a DJ set up and started playing random weird music no one has ever heard before.
the bartenders and wait staff seem new and unsure of what to do. it took me 15 minutes to order, get and pay for my drink. it should have taken 2. every time the waitress brought us another drink she had to ask 'what name is your tab under'. just write it down!!
also, when someone at the table ordered another drink a good waitress usually checks with the rest of the table to see if they need anything. here they just take the one persons order and walk away.
i also witnessed a bartender arguing with a women about her drink. the customer claimed the drink was 'weak' and the bartender was disagreeing with her and said she put a shot in it. she offered her another shot of whiskey in the drink but at the price of $3. she declined and left.
their website says there are $2 mixed drinks from 9-10, this was NOT the case!
friday night after 9pm was 'ladies night' and all drinks were $3. the place was pretty dead except for the patio and we were pretty much the only ladies in the place, it was 80% men. the drinks were in small plastic cups, tons of ice and weak as hell! and before 9pm they were really overpriced at about $4.75 for a captian morgan and diet coke. they also charged 50 cents for a 'splash' of lemonade. cheap cheap cheap!
the menu was HUGE. too much stuff. i shared 2 things with my friend. the CJ's chicken wrap was good as were the seasoned fries. the nacho's not so much. the cheese wasn't really melted too well, it seemed like it was stuck in the microwave then lettuce, tomato and shredded cheese were thrown on top.
overall this place sucks, it's the same owners as when it was Peppi's and it had a bad wrap then and it will probably continue even though the name has changed. don't stop here unless you are dying to have a drink on a patio.
