    The hollandaise sauce was good, but not really enough for the huge scoop of crab...
    Amy S.

    Underwhelmed. Service was great, but the food didn't wow me for the cost. I had the Oscar chicken and my boyfriend ordered the New York Strip. The chicken was fairly good, but when they topped it with a hefty scoop of dried out canned crab??? Nope, I was turned off and very disappointed for the $19 price. Aside from me not liking my meal, I should point out that the service was excellent. We were there for my friend's birthday and our server generously brought him a small cake that was big enough for the four of us to share. So kind, but still 3 stars for the food...5 for our wonderful server.

    Two piece fish fry

    Consulting in Hartford was disappointing from a food perspective until I dined at MJ Stevens. Considering I have dined here three times I would definitely recommend this restaurant. Calibrate your expectations to get a good quality meal that isn't fancy but just solid cooking. Wednesday night they have a fish fry of either baked or lightly breaded cod. I have tried both and they were delicious. The two piece breaded cod is plentiful for one person. It comes with waffle fries that are piping hot along with coleslaw and the traditional rye bread. The fish needed a little more salt but I would rather add salt than it come out over seasoned. Baked cod can be overcooked and rubbery but they cooked it so it flaked nicely. One time I was craving a steak so I opted for the small filet. I got a double side of veggies and the salad. They make their own ranch which is a plus. The salad is a generous plate with fresh veggies. The steak was cooked to perfection and was at a $28 per an 8 ounce filet it was very reasonable. The place is very busy almost every day of the week so I opt to sit at the bar which always has a stool open. The bartenders are friendly and work their tails off. They must treat their team well because you can see the dedication of the workers. I did survive the great "Hartford blackout" the Wednesday I was dining there. A large part of the area had a power outage that lasted over an hour. The kitchen had to be shut down because it needed electricity for the vent hoods. They put out more candles and people started spontaneously to sing songs. Fortunately the one register was on a generator so they could still ring out tags. I laughed that I was going to make "I survived the Hartford blackout" t-shirts. MJ Stevens is a solid dining experience with traditional favorites done well with good service. The fanciest item on the menu is the breaded duck tenders but I value quality sometimes over creativity.`

    An oasis on Hwy 41 N/S. Expertly appointed, very clean, huge parking lot for all the seats inside. The staff is attentive and fast - maybe too fast? The food. Diverse menu that each item is it's own. Daily specials as well. The prices? Well, let's assume MJs knows how good they are and the oasis they bring $$$. Good news? Happy hour 1/2 off apps from 2-5. Worth every penny and the short journey off the frontage road.

    I've known of Jim's Place for a while because their flavor burst ice cream cones (which are…read morestraight out of a 1990s McDonald's) had social media abuzz, but only recently had the pleasure of stopping for the first time. In addition to a mint flavor burst ice cream cone I ordered a cheeseburger and wonton mozzarella sticks. The wonton mozzarella sticks are an incredible value given how many you get for the price. Crispy on the outside and had good cheese pull. The cheeseburger, which had a nice flaky bun, had excellent flavor and is one of the better burgers I've had in the area. It made me sad that I hadn't visited Jim's Place before. I wanted the blue goo flavor of flavor burst, but they were out of it that day, so I went for mint instead. It wasn't super strong like I had hoped, but you could taste the mint. I would probably get a different flavor next time (hopefully they have blue goo available at that point). The gentleman that took my order and made my food (who I assume was Jim?) was very kind. I originally ordered to dine in and switched to to-go as he was bringing my food out because of an urgent matter. He boxed it up for me and never once had an issue with the sudden change. I appreciated it very much.

    My first time being at Jim's place was fantastic. I really enjoyed their signature pizza and their…read morevariety of food and drinks to choose from their menu. Despite the fact the restaurant alone was small and the tables were close together, the staff was friendly and very busy. I really enjoyed how they decorated the walls with nostalgic memories such as the gumball machine, 70's music, beanie baby crane and a lot of "my name is Jim" tags for everyone to remember. I would move the tables out at a little further for people who want a lot of space. Also, there needs to be a parking lot made behind or next to the restaurant so that no one will have to parallel park and walk there. I would definitely recommend this place for anybody who loves delicious food at great prices.
