Updated review. Came here on Sunday morning, Feb 2, 2025. My server was Maura. As the picture shows, I ordered tomatoes, catfish, and a few extra scrambled eggs. What's amazing about this place is when you take a moment to consider the sheer traffic flow and volume, the servers still manage to keep a smile on their face and are super efficient as well.aura was no exception.This says a lot about this place being run the right way from the top down. Management is doing an awesome job here. Congrats.

Came here after a funeral service and there was about 10-12 of us on a Sat approx 1-2pm. They were able to accommodate us, which was nice.There's a huge menu that includes Southern and Mexican dishes also Smoothies & Juices.Everyone pretty much ordered something different and all enjoyed their food.My husband got the Chilaquiles and I ordered the Catfish breakfast. The catfish was a bit thin and I've had better; but it was doable!The servers were really nice and handled our group just fine. The restaurant is in a strip mall and parking is kinda tight; but there is parking in the back. It's a cool diner feel that's larger!Yelp gives a 3, if there were half stars, I'd give a 3 1/2.If I'm in the area again, I'd return!!

It was about that time again to visit my favorite breakfast places in LA. We came in on 11-23-24 around 12pm and had to wait about 20 minutes. It is always nice and pack in there which is all good. The food is always good and you can just see them coming out to everyone. The staff are very friendly and professional and you can just see them hustling around the cafe. This time I ordered the hot links place with eggs and hash browns and it was good as always. Looking forward to another great meal at CJ's!

Well, well, well let's just say it was so good I forgot to take a before picture! The seasonings were on point as though my Mom herself was in the kitchen! Everything was cooked to perfection and Griselda our waitress was very courteous and attentive! Thank you for the hospitality

Loved this place ! Ate here while visiting LA and I truly enjoyed everything our table ordered. The grits were great (not pictured) & I love how they have fresh juice to choose from. Our service was very attentive and it's a great family atmosphere. I would definitely eat here again.

Chicken was tasty, but the grits, the staple of any good soul food restaurant was grainy and not creamy at all. Asked the waitress if they had any that was cooked better and she was only able to offer me fruit, or somthing different. Last time I'll be here on labrea and Obama. My fault, but Jack's family kitchen is closed for the holidays.

Cj's cafe is located in midtown area in a large shopping center so Parking is simple to find The Ambiance when you get in is nothing special to be honest but you have a typical diner The service is pretty friendly they were very attentive and helpful as well The food I got the hard shell tacos because apparently that's what they are known for and man lemme tell you they are so addicting ! Kind of messy but so tasty ! The price point is low to medium but not bad overall check them out if your around the area

Clean, organized, friendly - already a favorite in so many ways, but my latest fave is two poached eggs and a bowl of their rolled old-fashioned oatmeal. Yum and keeps me happy for a long time.
