Great friendly service with dogs allowed in the main restaurant. Hamburger cooked to perfection and served with tasty french fries

TAKE OUT ONLY Driving through and was craving some breakfast burritos. This is the place to go! Classic breakfast burrito - massive and delicious and tons of items inside Mexican breakfast burrito - just as massive and tons of flavor the burritos are more than enough for two portions. Keep in mind since the size is big the price tag is a little bigger as well - $14 per burrito. BUT I would 100% go again. Did go inside to use the restroom which was very clean and the patrons that were there gave off a very friendly vibe. Plenty of parking. read more

Our holiday visit to Colfax started with an amazing breakfast at TJ's.locals rave about the steaks and other dinner entrees and I can't wait to visit again! Be warned- their portions are HUGE! We ordered the chicken fried steak that comes with two eggs, toast, and home home fries. Figuring we would definitely have to split that, we ordered a side of bacon, because well... bacon! All of it was amazing! seriously everything was great! Susan, our waitress, was the best! Great conversation and excellent service. This place was really comfortable to be in as well. Don't miss this spot if you're in the area! read more

Tj out did themselves this time with the steak sandwich. The service was great, I could not ask for better . My GF got the beef dip and she said it was great. I want to add that the bread they used was perfect - seems like they upped their bread game, solid move. Until next time - TJ's is the spot read more

TJ's Roadhouse - Steak Sandwich- Beef Dip and a house salad. - American Near Me - Colfax, California

Delicious dinner on a Wednesday night. My husband & I just moved to the area, and decided to adventure out. I had the steak sandwich (thank you prior yelp reviewers), and my husband had the California-type burger with egg & avocado added on their homemade onion bun. Umm, do yourself a favor and get the onion bun--delicious & so soft. The steak sandwich was great, and so large I get to have the other half for lunch today : ) We also had the homemade blueberry lemon bread pudding for dessert & it was incredible. I just finished off the rest with my coffee this morning. Our waitress was lovely, and had great recommendations as well. Can't wait to go back soon! Thanks TJ's! read more

Food is yummy & they have many different yummy goods to choose from! The atmosphere there is awesome!!

SIL and I stopped here Sunday night on our way back to Reno from 6 Flags Vallejo. We were tired HUNGRY and cranky from driving but as soon as we stepped inside TJ's were greeted by the warmest atmosphere and it lightened our moods! We were sat immediately and ordered chili cheese fries to start, which were flavorful and ooey gooey. I could have eaten a whole bucket of them. For entrees I chose the Spotted Owl (on homemade onion bun WOWZA) with a side of MORE chili cheese fries and SIL chose the Pepper burger with garlic fries. Everything was delicious, well flavored, well prepared. Every person working here was friendly and attentive, even when I spilled Ranch dressing all over the floor (still sorry about that!) My only grievance is it's so far from where I live, because this place ROCKS. read more

Ordered the beef dip and pastrami sandwiches. Pricy and both sandwiches were dry. The pastrami lacked of classic seasoning. Could have used a pickle on the side. Garlic fries and onion rings were tasty. House ranch was great. Place was getting busy in the evening and waitresses were really nice. read more

Don't know what I expected, but they surpassed it. Think the white gravy may have been hamburger vs. sausage, but it didn't stop me from devouring my breakfast. Definite stop when next through the area. Wait staff extremely good at their job! read more

Food, service, atmosphere all were on point! I will definitely eat here again. Beer on tap was good.

Stopped here on our way back home, and wow. These burgers were amazinggggg! I ordered the Clownifornia with avocado instead of guacamole. My bf got just a standard burger and added avocado & bacon with grilled onions. We both ordered garlic fries. Good thing we took our order to go and ate outside because these burgers were SO BIG & SO JUICY they were dripping everywhere SO MESSY & DELICIOUS. 10/10 will definitely stop back by on our next trip through here :) Both of the pics attached are just of my Clownifornia, I didn't get to take a pic of our other burger. read more

My boyfriend and I were just there on Wednesday. He got the steak and i got a pizza Its amazing! The food was great , the atmosphere was nice and sever got a good tip. I recommend this place in Colfax to anyone interested in a good meal. Oh cant forget the beer. And long island ice tea. Good stuff . read more

I have been to TJ's several times over the years and have alway loved its quint/ rustic ambiance and food. But this visit was significantly different. Let me start my saying that the service is great. Everyone was kind and attentive. The food -- a big letdown. I ordered a New York steak dinner. The house salad was fresh, but the blue cheese dressing tasted mainly like mayonnaise; not nearly enough blue cheese. The mashed potato's were good, but the gravy tasted like it was a mix from a box. Imagine "hospital cafeteria". The steak was the worst part. It was the thinnest and fattiest New York that I have ever had. No exaggeration, 40% was fat or gristle. Not sure if I will be back. read more

Breakfast was well portions plates, with so many options. The most memorable was my Cocktail for brunch which was called a HOT TODDY. I brought so many memories of my Step Grandmother . It was a cinnamon infused Whisky, with honey and lots of lemon. I'm sure many people who stop by after hitting the ski slopes make this their go to drink. We were fortunate to meat the manager and was given the history of the restaurant. I'm told that Halloween is a special time to go and enjoy the ambiance. We were there while the crowd was on their lunch break. Food got to us quick and efficiently. I'm glad I finally stopped by. read more

Love the food, you need to fix your phone system. The last 3 times we've tried to order to go, you haven't picked up. I've gone in and they said the phones were having an issue. I don't want to have to go in and wait 30 minutes for a to go order, defeats the purpose. Today I got someone; they put me on hold and then when they came back, it was breaking up and I couldn't order. Now I can't get through again. Bummer. read more

We took our grandson's here. The food was great. They ate everything on their plate that should say something all by itself!!!! we were seated right away, and our server was fantastic. She was kind and responsive. Highly recommended making this one of your stops!!! read more

The split pea and ham soup had a lot of pepper which gave it a kick and was pretty good. The caramel bread pudding was soft and warm and very enjoyable to eat but would have been great with vanilla ice cream. The steak was tough and i was only able to eat less than half of it. read more

This place has the best burgers. My favorite is there Chili Burger, best I've had! Great place to stop by if you are driving to Reno from the Bay Area. read more

I can't believe that it took us so long to stop here. We go back and forth to the Bay Area and have driven past here for years. Finally we stopped in for lunch and it was well worth it. Great homey ambiance and awesome varied menu. The service was excellent as was the food. I highly recommend their house made potato chips. They came hot, cooked to perfection and were delicious. They also serve breakfast until 2 and that also looked wonderful. This is a great local place to stop and I'm so glad we finally tried it! read more

Check out this great little spot in the foothills of the Sierras. The patio is a nice place to catch a meal. I had the delicious spotted owl sandwich in the fresh made onion bun. The flavors really hit the spot and the chicken was moist. It wasn't greasy or soggy and the fries were crispy and tasty. Worth a try. read more

This place has been a traditional stop for us for years whenever we go to North Lake Tahoe. We've come here with friends and family and we will keep coming back! The food is good, serving sizes are very generous, the wait is always reasonable, staff is helpful, and location is perfect right off the freeway to pop in to eat and pop right back out to continue on your road trip! read more

TJs for dinner tonight where our Excellent Server Jessica whipped up the perfect Strawberry shake with chocolate drizzle... Thoms favorite. Awesome Bacon Cheeseburger and side salad with homemade Bleu cheese dressing too! Jessica is the Master of Milkshakes- the Milkshake Queen. Thanks Jessica! Keep up the good work. We'll be back. read more

Great comfort food and cold beer, I always get the patty melt, best one around these parts.

Nice stop on road to Sacramento. Awesome biscuits and gravy. Omelettes over the top! Great service and coffee! read more

Only reason it's a 4 is that they were short on help , manager was cooking and there weren't enough wait staff to handle crowd. Food, once our order was taken and arrived, was very good. We each got something different so we could try more dishes. There was nothing we wouldn't order again. Their special desert was complimentary, due to the length of time it took to order. We didn't have any problems the next time we came and food was just as good! read more

Went here yesterday after a hike. It was my first time eating here. Was so glad to find a dine-in place open. Soon as we walked into the waiting area there was hand sanitizer full and ready use =) Upon entering the inside there was a traditional Northern California Country décor and the aroma of warm yummy food. They welcomed us and sat us in a timely fashion. I ordered the double chin burger (medium), but the single patty version of it (which isn't labeled on the menu?) . Wish it was labeled on the menu, it would have been easier to order it. Definitely, not trying to get a double chin! LOL The burger was great and so were the side of onion rings. It wasn't medium, more like medium well, but it was still soft and moist & yummy. My friends ordered sandwiches and fries. Both plates were full to the rim. Perfect for sharing or taken home for later. Which is important to folks, because we all don't want to have to leave the house or cook later and we really appreciate getting what we pay for! The onion rings were definitely better than the fries. Don't know if that was a fluke or that's how it will always be? Also, my friend accidently spilled her draft beer passing me the Ketchup, so she ordered another one. The waitress brought the new and replaced the exact amount she spilled. I was impressed she was actually keeping an eye on us. Needless, to say it was good service and was appreciated. Would try again if I was back in the area. read more

Sounds more rugged than it is, but the food every time I've eaten there has been delicious and fresh. The burgers and onion rings have got to be the main reason I go there. They do you have a Bar, and I've had their bloody Mary which was different because they use sake instead of a vodka like most places do. Still it was pretty good. I recommend this place to any passing by or who lives close. Great food and great service! read more

Red pizza sauce has zero flavor and definitely is in need of some salt. Are usually stop at this restaurant from Reno. On my way to Sacramento religiously. I always get the burgers and the server said that they were well known for their pizzas so this time I got the margarita pizza. if it wasn't for the oregano in the basil on the pizza, this would've had no flavor. I would have given this restaurant three stars if it wasn't for the wonderful staff that they have. They do have some of the friendliest servers and I really appreciate that. I had gotten my pizza to go and jump back on the road to eat along the way. Otherwise I could've just salted it myself. So word to the wise get a side of salt with your pizza if it has the red sauce, but if I could recommend go five minutes more on I 80 W. to Newcastle. There you will find a really great pizza place, if not more than one. read more

Always great food and service! Susan is always attentive and friendly:) I have tried 10+ different things on this menu and I'm never disappointed. read more

We are local residents and we really wanted to like TJ's. It would be great to have a local, reliable place. Sadly, we won't be going back. The food, service and ambiance is average... at best. My Caesar Salad was iceberg lettuce with some croutons and pre-packaged Parmesan cheese, and an odd tasting, peppery dressing. I couldn't finish it. My wife couldn't finish her fried chicken dinner. Didn't like the seasonings on the chicken. The side salad was average, with a mushy tomato. On the upside, my son said his pulled pork sandwich was good. And the french fries were good. The place has a wooden floor which bounces when people tromp by, and the window view is either "parking lot" or "Interstate". The service was very slow, and the reason was there were only two cooks and two waitresses. All looked like they were working very hard but they were understaffed. The waitresses were friendly and nice, but overworked. The waitress only charged me 1/2 for the salad, even though I didn't ask her to do that. That was nice but I'd rather have a good salad. Sorry TJ's... can't recommend. read more

Had breakfast inside. Social distancing was respected. Masks were evident unless you were eating, and sanitizer was available. Calm. My senior's breakfast was plentiful. Includes 1 egg, 1 pancake, 1 meat, 1 large hash brown serving, and coffee. Good deal for under $10. Pros: Really delicious pancake with warm syrup. Good hash browns and the sausage patty was thin, large, and grilled well done, but moist and flavorful, just as I like it. Cons: The egg over easy was full of runny uncooked egg white. I love a runny yolk but despise any uncooked whites. If I order "over medium" to avoid runny whites, the yolk is too firm, so it can be a hit and miss and this was a miss because the egg had too much egg-snot. Staff was pleasant and cheerful. read more

Just keep driving. I read their reviews. We were seated promptly and thou the waitress was at the next table it still took 20 minutes to get her attention. Food was not that good, I wished it was. McD's is across the road read more
