JJ's restaurant has amazing country home style cooked food! Their Sunday buffet is awesomely delicious!

It's went downhill over the years, service is bad, food is bad the whole property is bad

3 stars because the waitress was nice. Bacon cheeseburger . Cheese burger with maybe a 1/4 piece if bacon. Ordered the fries and coleslaw got the fries. Half the order is better then none....right. read more

JJ's Truck Stop & Restaurant - That's not a bacon cheeseburger. It's a burger they dropped a small piece of left over bacon on. - Food Trucks Near Me - Malvern, Arkansas

Used to be "the place". Has been sold and really down hill. Was just there restaurant didn't open. Not sure the cook showed up. Hate to see.

Lot's of parking.... it's dirt but huge and lots of spots... The fuel island is small but the people are super nice. Not a bad place to spend ur 10 or 34... The restaurant isn't bad either pretty good food and the prices are great! I was in this morning after an off load for breakfast and had the pleasure of being served by an absolute sweetheart named Lainey (hope the spelling is correct) she really made the experience so if any of y'all management or ownership reads this please give that lady praise because she was AWESOME! also my food was wonderful flavor was great not over cooked pretty near perfection... read more

i highly recommended the El Racho When you go it's always good and fresh!

The parking area for semis is really large. I went in after our DOT 10, and I must have had a look of potty on the mind as the lady behind the counter immediately advised me of where the restrooms were. The restroom were very clean compared to most truck stops. The toilet paper was running low in both stalls (yes, there is only two stalls), and there were NO hand towels or air dryer. This may be why there was so little toilet paper? Over all it is a nice place for truck parking and the staff was really friendly! read more

JJ's Truck Stop & Restaurant - This is from the front of the truck stop, at the pumps, looking toward the back parking area. - Food Trucks Near Me - Malvern, Arkansas

Old truck stop but food served right. Don't let the odd decor. And it being a truck stop steer you away. Friendly , attentive staff with a flair to please is always welcoming , kudos to the waitress Katie. Menu has variety but cooked with a lot of care and love. Try it. You won't be disappointed read more

I recently stopped in for lunch. I was in a hurry so I ordered the chicken fried cutlets off the "lunch specials " menu. After 20 minutes of waiting the waitress sailed by and slid the plate across the table. And away she went. The order could not have been more wrong if she were trying. Since I was in such a hurry, I just choked down the slop she brought me. I looked at my ticket and it said "special 2" but it was not special, just number 2. read more

JJ's Truck Stop & Restaurant - NOT the chicken fried cutlets that I ordered. - Food Trucks Near Me - Malvern, Arkansas

country style restaurant, you would think moderately priced, not so, small portions, chicken over cooked (dry, crunchy) also truck parking is not free! Dont waste your time and money, highly dissatisfied! read more

The sweet tea sucked and a microwave hamburger would have been better. I was nice and tossed the tea out in the parking lot and kept the cup so when I got into my truck and bit into the burger the burger and the container went out into your parking lot. Horrible food read more

Lots of parking but it's $11.00 The restaurant is terrible, I've eaten here twice. It took 20 minutes to get a menu, breakfast was bad, ordered chicken fried steak for dinner, very bad. Avoid the restaurant. read more

The food was great they have nice staff please stop there and check it out it's the only restaurant close by so please go by there and check it out read more

Awesome place to eat. The burgers are a must try. Miss Susan took good care of us. Very clean and friendly

We come to JJ's every Friday night as a family tradition...the last 2 times we have been the food was not cooked and served a child raw chicken strips and both times and not to mention the numerous times that the food has sat on the counter and served cold....needless to say we just walked out and paid for drinks...asked for a manager and was told no one was there to talk to and that she would let them know but has a new number and will try to find it and let them know!! Do not recommend this place to anyone! Very disappointing that this place has went down hill in so little of a time! read more

Nice restaurant. Clean bathroom. Tons and tons and tons of truck parking!

My family of eleven went to JJ's truck Stop resteraunt after we buried my mother at FairPlay cemetery. It was the WORST service and food I've had there in all the time I've gone there for family gatherings. Now this was in November 2011 and hopefully things are different now, because it's been a staple for the locals as well as the passers. read more

Great food, attentive service, and the coffee is superb! Listed as a truck stop but is also family friendly. Clean restrooms are also a plus! Full menu plus a homemade Buffett on Sundays from 11AM to 7PM. Highly recommended! read more

High price to park at $11.00 or 60 gallons of fuel. Petro is a better deal with free parking if you spend $20.00 in the restaurant and the store combined. I wont recommend stopping hear again at these rates. read more

Truck stop is good, people were nice - but if you need maintenance or repair on your truck....for a $50 part...I was charged over $600 that included labor and service fees and will never go there again. read more

Might have good food but charging to park is stealing from the very people your in business to serve. Sadly I won't return and hope others follow. We allow this next you'll pay to park everywhere. read more

The service was friendly, even though the server showed up with my meal, and shouted, " Where is 41?" Luckily the tables are clearly numbered, so I shouted an acknowlegement. I suspect their strong suit is breakfast food. I had roast chicken breast, mashed potatoes, corn and texas toast. It was the sort of meal my 13 year old granddaughter could cook. Edible, no thrill. The chicken was unseasoned. The mashed potatoes were lumpy and the corn, (best thing I Was served) had sat in a pot for quite a while. The Texas toast was white bread, toasted on the grill. If you are looking to keep body and soul together, JJ will get it done. If you are looking for the fantastic Arkansas cooking my grandma put out everyday, keep looking. read more

WIted 45 mins for food and still was not served. Waitress slow and made excuses for cook saying they were busy , only 20 customers in the emptier building. Then charged me for coffee. Not recommended read more

Roomy (albeit crater-riddled) parking and a good restaurant atmosphere...unfortunately are the only good things I have to say about this place. We waited for our food for over 40 minutes, watching people who came in after us finish eating and leave before any of our food came out. When it finally did come, it was undercooked and inaccurate. After the wrong item was replaced (and received once again undercooked), I finished eating what I could of it before the rest of my order arrived. As we were leaving we politely informed the clerk of our completely unsatisfactory experience, and though she was apologetic, she made no offer of compensation or discount whatsoever. Oh, your food was barely edible? Sorry to hear that. That'll be $20. Save yourself some money and a lot of disappointment and take your business elsewhere. We sure will be. read more

Haven't ate here in a couple years. Really need to again because when we did eat there the food was delicious and you get a lot of it. I can't wait to go back there and eat again...hopefully here real soon. read more

Every time we have eaten here for breakfast the food has been really good. However, when I asked the waitress for some extra jelly for my pancakes, she felt it was ok to hand me the jelly off the dirty plates she just picked up at the next table. Sorry, but I find that disgusting and repulsive. Whe was an older lady and should have known better. It's one thing to reuse unopened condiments but not off of someone's dirty plate right in front of the customer. read more
