Blondie & Jim’s Bistro

Great food! Great atmosphere! The service was fast and professional. They even had everyone sing happy birthday to my daughter.

Friendly service, great ambiance, and killer food. Like many businesses at Norton Commons, parking can be a bear at times. The pot roast dish was delightful, I'm normally not a fan of pot roast but this one was **chefs kiss**

This is located right in the heart of Norton Commons. We and friends were heading up to Cincy from Meade/Hardin Counties and needed a midway point for breakfast.Needed somewhere with quick access to I-71, open after 10 am, able to make reservations and a decent menu. Jackpot!!!We were greeted by one of the owners/chefs. She shared info about her menu, the inspirations, and the emphasis that food is made to protect your gut health.They offer classes that my friends and I plan to make the one hour drive at some point to experience. The review will be updated then.For now, the waffles were amazing. Both posted are seasonal. Looking forward to coming back near Valentines for Red Velvet waffles.Prices are reasonable in comparison to other mom and pop restaurants that we visit in our county. This made the drive worth it.

Located in Norton Commons. Went on a Sunday at 11am. Was quickly seated. It's a smaller restaurant... only about 8 tables and then bar seating. Food came out in about 10-15 minutes. The French toast casserole was very good! It was expensive ($14) for a small piece but seemed about the same price as all the other menu items. Would go again to try something else just expect to pay around $12-24 for food items. Higher up charge for debit/credit cards vs cash.

what an extraordinary place that absolutely drew me in with the pink aesthetic, but kept me there with a camaraderie, friendliness and warm hospitality. Me & my friend went for a girls brunch and it was perfect for that! The owner personally served us and gave us a little history behind the restaurant and how important it is that she makes her food conscientiously with no extra additives and keep food as fuel for your body. She makes her own juice from scratch and it made for the perfect cocktail! I got the panini which was delicious- and my friend got the french toast special- and THAT was outta this world!!!! They also are supportive of uplifting and inspiring the community through events, so i look forward to attending some soon! Much love for B&Js and will be back again!!

We came from St. Louis for Valentine's Day and saw this spot on Yelp. It was a little drive from Louisville, but well worth it. The area was very nice, and the owner came out and spoke to us about her culinary experience and provided great recommendations. We wanted to try everything! We had a mimosa flight, crab cakes, gumbo, chicken and waffles, and shrimp and grits. My only regret is we were so hungry we forgot to take pics! Everything was good, no complaints! Would definitely return if I'm ever in the area again!

Adorable southern brunch spot ~ this restaurant is the perfect location to dress cute and meet with your girlfriends!Things you should know:I. PARKINGB&J's is within Norton Commons. You can find free parking within the center of the town square or along the streets. Parking is packed on weekends so I suggest coming on a weekday! II. SERVICE Their signature table markers are cute. The food came out in a timely manner and the owner personally spoke to us, which was a nice personal touch. III. QUALITY Not one complaint from our party. We enjoyed everything! The chef was very accommodating to my picky requests with the salad. IV. CAPACITY There was a fair amount of available seating for a Weekend at noon, but I think it's because they're relatively new! Please show them love and support so they can continue to thrive!

This place has been bookmarked in my Yelp since I heard they opened a second location in Norton Commons. I went for brunch which they only have on Saturdays and Sundays. We went at a time that the location wasn't as packed which was nice. It was open seating so my friend and I decided to sit at the bar. The decor is really pretty with pink walls and light colored flowers. I read the menu ahead of time so I knew my top two choices. We decided to get a mimosa pitcher. You can add in a flavor such as strawberry, mango, peach or blueberry. We went with the peach mimosa which was really good! Definitely try they flavor if you like peach if you decide to visit. I decided to get the B&J breakfast instead of the chicken and waffles. It took awhile for our food to come but it was because my friend had an add on that made the wait longer which was fine. The owner stopped by and greeted us which was nice. She also checked into make sure we were good so that was a nice touch. Once I got my food I was starving. The waffle was really good and the potatoes were seasoned well. The Turkey bacon was also good. I did not like my eggs, they were runny and bland. Other then that, everything else tasted really good. Will have to try the chicken and waffles next time!

Fun place to go. Food good. Scenery very good. Enjoyed lunch. Good place to talk with friends

Based on my first 5 star experience, I brought a group of friends for brunch. Once again, the food was delicious. 5 star. You can tell the meals are made from scratch. We also had a pitcher of mango mimosas, which complimented our experience and filled the hour that we waited for our food. In addition to the extremely long wait, the level of service I experienced the first time I visited was completely absent this time. We ordered an appetizer that arrived after we received our meals and after we had cancelled it. And we were still charged for it. The food is good enough that I would give the place another try, but the service needs some consistency.
