J & L Breakfast & Steak House

The service is at a high level, and the breakfast you can't go wrong with. The portions and prices can't be matched. This is my spot every week.

My favorite hometown breakfast place! Love the country fried steak! The service is amazing

Great food great price. A Marion staple for sure! Always great service. Kept clean for how old the place is.

Super busy took awhile to get our food but it was great when we did get it. 3 of us got the 4 meat omelet and it was good my daughter got the breakfast sampler and loved the pancakes

Very small hole in the wall restaurant. Good enough for breakfast, and appears to cater to locals. Food is always good along with the service. Nothing fancy there. Better, but more expensive, places in town to dine with out-of-town guests. We were told that the prices on the menu did not reflect current pricing. Confirmed when we left. Perhaps a little soft music would go a long way in there. Never been there for a lunch or dinner.

You don't come to this place because the decor / vibe is modern and new - you come to this place because of the atmosphere. This is the type of place where the waitresses call ya "baby," and you've got a gang of older men in the front corner drinking coffee, laughing, reliving the old days. The food is pretty good - tastes like diner food you want when you wake up with a hangover. Homecookin' at its finest, honestly. Just don't come here expecting a 5-star dining experience because that's not what this place is about. It's about the affordable (delicious) food, accessible seating, and homey atmosphere.

This was our first experience here and we found it to be a good average breakfast place. The cooking was done quite well, eggs bright and not overcooked, bacon & sausage perfect, hash browns homemade, gravy good, etc. It was a busy Saturday morning, so we always extend some grace during rush-times. The food tasted good but overall not served piping hot. Seemed like our food may have gotten caught up in a delay. Wait-staff was friendly enough but lacked that "glad you chose us today" attitude. Granted it was busy, but we are the types to say thank you and genuinely appreciate our waiter, so at least reflect that back to us. I would be willing to try it again, but I wouldn't give it glowing reviews based on this morning.

If you want great food and great service plus a reasonable price! This is the place. I absolutely love going to this restaurant. My favorite place in Marion to go. When you ask for your eggs to be a certain way you get it. Just like my grandma used to make. I can't say enough about the cooks or the ladies that take special care of you. The amount of food you get is so much you need a take home tray. Which is always great. Food, price and service winner winner

Wife told me about this place so we went and was not disappointed. Food was good. And service was great.

First off I'd like to say I've been coming here for ver 29 years and this morning after a night of great fun w a lazy friend, we were very hungry and damaged from doing adult things and I look up places for breakfast and yours is the only one that says it's open. It says Ur open 5 and mind you, it's 5 d*** thirty and guess what!??!? You're are not open!!!! Please stop being lazy like your servers and take the 5 mins to change your open time on line!!!! DANK YOU!!! Will not come againAnd we are now at IHOP because they are really open.OHHHH!!! And one more thing! The last five times I have been there the biscuits and gravy sucked bc it was Luke warm at best and they they used to be str8 fire. Bring back the oldJ&L
