First time coming here with my bf. the lady that served us was very friendly and helpful on what we should get, their food were big! We waited an hour for the food but the burger tasted like any other burger so not too crazy on that, their ranch was delicious but very watery. Would come back tho! read more

Looking for a "Ma & Pa" homemade breakfast joint? This is your place! The food was very authentic, delicious, and met the ideal comfort food! They also serve lunch and dinner as well. I had the Denver omelet with country gravy over top with a side of potatoes and toast. Very good! My friend had the French toast with potatoes. The French toast appeared to be made with French bread because the French toasts pieces were long. My friend said it's one of her faves when she eats here. It's her go to. Side note... The portion sizes are huge and fulfilling! The atmosphere definitely has that country style "ma & pa" feel, giving it a cozy feel. It was very quiet inside, yet the staff were very friendly, attentive, and kind. I truly enjoyed our first visit here. A definite must try! read more

A refreshing change after making the mistake of eating at First Watch a week prior, where there was one menu item that appealed to me and it was labeled "your Dad eats this". I found this offensive, if not smug. The ambiance, the food, and the service at TJ's were all exactly what we were looking for. I highly recommend TJ's. read more

Holy crud this place has lost some points with me. If you want to go somewhere to be berated by the waitresses, this is your place. Super rude and challenging server. Ugh. read more

Literally the rudest staff I've ever encountered. Not only are you dismissive towards your guests your servers also pick and choose who they decide they're nice too. If you're under 70 don't come here they don't like you! read more

Want to check out homecooking this is the place you need to go! We got there at closing time and they welcomed us in with a great spot. The kids ordered milkshakes. One was PURE coffee wahoo! The other was chocolate and delicious! The giant cinammon roll was fun to share with the table and there was tons of frosting left over. We each ordered the belly buster burger, the pancakes, and hashbrowns. Everything was cooked very well. The bacon was a bit over cooked. The strawberries seemed past their ripe date. But beyond those items it was fabulous! We took all the leftovers home and enjoyed them the next day too! Such a great breakfast spot in our community! read more

I am giving 3 stars based on our last visit on 9/8/26. We have been there once before and it was good, however on the 8th, we had a different experience. The waitress was cheerful and very nice. Both my wife's and my hash browns were almost burnt crisp on top leaving almost no potatoes to eat. My wife's scrambled eggs were overcooked. Some of my toast was a little overcooked. Sorry to say, because we like the atmosphere, but we will hold off for a while before returning. read more

A local restaurant to eat breakfast of brunch at. Depending on time of day, the service can be great or so-so. It seems that on some occasions items get forgotten when ordered. The food is ok, and portions are decent, but they have to do something about the service. read more

Tried TJ's today and was very disappointed. I'll start with the positives, waitress was nice, coffee was good.but both our plates were served cold. Super disappointed. read more

Searched for a breakfast place while up in the west Phoenix area and this cute homestyle place came up and we are so glad it did! It is home cooking with the friendliest service, real families and truckers in the country style decorated dining rooms, and huge portions of deliciousness. The blueberry muffin was especially tasty loaded with blueberries. My husband and I shared the big breakfast which could easily have fed 3! Plenty of parking and very affordable. We will be back! read more

4 stars food 3 stars service. Food was amazing first of all. Felt like I was in someone's kitchen. Pretty big portioned. Our server was an older lady who had butted into our conversation lol and then started conversating with me and forgot my husbands bread that was supposed to go with his meal. 1. 2. Since she was being super nosey she said that they never put down the patty tor my burger lol which I highly doubt it was cooks fault lol I'm sure she had forgot to tell them lol. Would I go back tho??? Yeah, lol I would. I'll just prepare myself to carry on a conversation and my food might be missing or take forever to come out lol read more

Good food. Homestyle cooking. There is something for every one. We were a little disappointed that the eggs Benedict used what tasted like canned spinach. Service is hit or miss. Casual diner environment. read more

TJ's Homestyle Restaurant - American Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

Terrible experience from start to finish. As soon as my group was seated, we immediately noticed staff arguing with each other about which table they were going to take. That already made the experience uncomfortable and gave us a bad first impression. It then took over 10 minutes just to bring out one drink. We continued waiting for our food while watching people who arrived after us get served before we did. At one point, we even saw groups who had just been seated receive their food while we were still waiting. After waiting for about an hour, someone finally came out with our order, only for us to find out that it was the wrong order. We then discovered that our actual order had apparently never even been put in. After already waiting so long, finding that out was extremely frustrating. We arrived around 9:45 AM and didn't leave until around 11:00 AM, and that was only because the service had become so frustrating that we decided to leave. The long wait, lack of communication, staff arguing in front of customers, and the fact that our order was never entered made this an extremely disappointing experience. I understand that restaurants can get busy and that mistakes happen, but there should at least be communication and some effort to make things right. Unfortunately, we experienced neither. Based on our experience, the service was absolutely horrible, and I would not recommend coming here if you're expecting timely or organized service. read more

There is none. Do not order the meatball though.Because it is not meatloaf.I don't know what to call it.

I love these homestyle places. The food is always great. T J's is no different. Plenty to eat and great prices. Maria was outstanding! Friendly and made us feel at home. We will be back. read more

While the food here is pretty good, the owner and her son are very rude, loud and obnoxious. Will not be visiting this restaurant again. read more

Looking for that good homemade breakfast you grew up up with look now further. Almost all the breakfast meals are made from scratch. Many regulars early in the morning and wait staff greats most by name and will ask if they want their usual or something different today. Real hometown feel. Food proportions are large. Reminds me of the lost dinners from my younger years. read more

Good food, good service, and appropriate pricing. I had the BIG BREAKFAST. Eggs cooked perfectly. Really good sausage and bacon. Smashed the entire thing. Our server Maria was moving all over the place taking care of all her tables. I got 3 refills and didn't have to ask for one. Definitely adding this spot to my rotation. Oh and the chocolate cream pie was bomb as well. read more

Working in Phoenix for a few months and this place is the go-to place for breakfast. The service is great and the down home feel you get when walking in is the best. Don't pass on this place because it looks older than others. It will not disappoint. read more

We arrived as a party of 3 and were welcomed with a wait of over 30 minutes due to kid's soccer teams, PIR event, MADD walk, We Walk for Hope Walk.... The wait was worth it. The soup of the day was albondigas hands down the best I have ever eaten. Compliments to the chef- the broth was full of veggies and the meatballs (yes, two) were flavored and spiced perfectly. I also ordered the green chili omelette- the green chili was very good. My dining partner tried the cinnamon roll French toast topped with butter and syrup. It was a very good combination . My other diner has the chorizo omelette and a strawberry shake. All of the food was very good. As a plus the staff was efficient and kept the coffee full. This is a hometown diner clear on the opposite side of town.. a mom and pop shop .. we will drive for the service and the good down home style cooking ! read more

If I could rate this a 0 I would. Their service was so bad, we waited an hour just to get our food. When we had asked how long, the waitress said we had to wait at least 40 minutes for our food. As soon as our food was ready, our waiter only brought it one by one. The ambiance was heavy, it felt like the people were giving us a bad attitude as well as sarcasm. Our waitress only brought us water and got our food orders and then after nothing. No updates, no asking how we are, nothing. She only checked up on us after we got our food. My sister ordered chilaquiles without any knowledge it wouldn't actually be it. In the description it describes it regularly but once she received it, it was only the sauce in a bowl. I have uploaded a photo of how it's ACTUALLY supposed to look like compared to the "chilaquiles" we received. read more

Was visiting my mom and thought we'd try this place based on how busy it always is, thinking it would be good. Very wrong. Service is terrible and slow and food was even more disappointing. Tables and floor were dirty and our silverware still had food stuck to it. The wait to be seated was around 20 minutes with two small parties ahead of us. From there, it was close to another hour before we got our food, and our server had been MIA so unsurprisingly it was cold. Part of the order was not there and had to wait another bit for that. The server was very overwhelmed and was overheard snapping at another table who was ordering. The worst was the cinnamon rolls. We took them to go and once home, they were clearly old. I mean multi day stale. Could not eat and heating and adding extra butter did nothing. The entire experience was so comically bad I cannot see myself coming here ever again. read more

In my opinion servers are not the kindest. Had a little bit of attitude and Me and my family have sat here for 40-45 minutes waiting for our food. It is not very busy as well. Food is not that great read more

The decor parking service is 5 stars. The food, 2 stars. I may have had higher expectations because I really enjoy these family local restaurants. The bacon was very good, luke warm. The eggs were actually pretty good; scrambled with with cheddar cheese. The cinnamon French toast (the most anticipated portion) was very good. read more

The servers are always incredibly knowledgeable about their menu and foods. They're very kind and the entire restaurant carries a unique atmosphere that feels like home.

Terrible absolutely terrible and the waitress came by after I asked someone else for check. Fries were unusually hard.

The breakfast was hot when we got it. Bacon was done perfectly! Susan, our waitress, was great. The atmosphere in the restaurant is friendly all through out, even from 1 table to another. read more

The food here always hits, especially the French toast. The prices are reasonable too. However, the service is hit or miss, the place needs some updating, it just feels old and damp. The last two times we've been, the service was really slow, and the food was slow to come out. There are too many new restaurants in Goodyear to continue picking an outdated spot that closes early, the service is OK and the food takes forever, even if the food is good. If you want to stay in the game, you're gonna have to step it up.. i'd like to see you succeed, so make some changes, they are necessary. read more
