" Just Janice is our family's favorite breakfast spot! The variety on the menu is amazing, and my kids love the pancakes. We're impressed by the quality over the price; it's worth every penny. The staff is always friendly and attentive. If you're looking for a great breakfast experience, I highly recommend it. It really feels like you’re at home when you’re here! I cannot express enough how much we appreciate this place. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Just Janice was mixed. The atmosphere was right on point—very cozy and pleasant. However, the service left a lot to be desired. It took an unusually long time for us to be acknowledged and seated, even though the place wasn't overly crowded. Once we were finally at the table, the food came out promptly, but our server seemed distracted and forgot to bring my side order. On the bright side, the food was tasty; the fresh ingredients shone through, particularly in the salads. I might give it another shot, hoping the service improves as they settle into their rhythm. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Just Janice on a whim during a road trip and I am so glad I stopped! The food is superb! I had the breakfast burrito, and it was packed with ingredients bursting with flavor. My friend had a salad that looked just as good. The atmosphere was bright, making it a cheerful spot to eat. Our server basically treated us like family, considering we had no idea what to choose from the menu! The portions are generous and offered at reasonable prices! Without a doubt, I would detour back here if I’m ever in the area again. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I had an incredible dining experience at Just Janice! The attention to detail in the cuisine is commendable, and it was a treat to find real Italian flavors in North Jersey! I ordered the spaghetti puttanesca, and the depth of flavors was exquisite—each bite tasted fresh and crafted with care. As for the service, we encountered a brief delay in getting our drinks, but it was compensated by our server's genuine apology and quick recovery. The restaurant itself is warm and inviting—it felt like home. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Italian fare! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just Janice is the definition of comfort food! I was in the mood for something familiar yet satisfying, and they didn’t let me down. I had the mac and cheese, and it was a warm hug on a plate. The staff was down-to-earth and very accommodating with my dietary restrictions. The restaurant itself had a cozy, family feel—definitely the kind of place you want to linger over your meal. If comfort is what you're after, this is it! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! Just Janice surpassed all my expectations! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and treated like family. Our server was enthusiastic and genuinely cared about our experience. We shared the breakfast risotto and the spicy egg sandwich—and both dishes were phenomenal! Each bite was bursting with flavor and made with such high-quality ingredients. The portions were just right—enough to leave us satisfied without overdoing it. The ambiance allowed for lovely family conversation without feeling crammed. I can't wait to return; this has definitely become one of my favorites! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'll just say it: the fish tacos at this place are fantastic! I was very impressed by their freshness and the portion size worked perfectly for me. They were bursting with flavor and the sides complemented the main dish wonderfully. The ambiance is vibrant, and I love how the staff seems genuinely happy to be working there, which adds to the experience. I would recommend this spot to anyone simply for the tacos!
