I’ve been here for the first time taking my dad with me and I still think I made the best choice ever. This place is definitely what it can be defined as local but in the best meaning of the word: Mr. Johnson and his coworker welcomed us in the restaurant with a wonderful smile and it was just perfect. The location definitely holds memories with everything that is hanged on the wall but the food was even better! I had the best Mac and cheese in the USA so far and the meat loaf was just amazing, as well as the mashed potatoes (and I’m definitely not a mashed potatoes person!). My dad got the fried chicken and he really liked it. The fried corn was pretty good but what left my mouth wide open was the banana pudding that I took regardless of how my tummy was already full because I heard it wasn’t that bad. Once again, best choice ever. Recommended!

They stayed open late to feed me and my wife and they were so kind. The food was fabulous. We had a great time and strongly recommend 4j. The coconut tea is soooo good

I didn't know if we were at the right place, very unassuming. Food was great! Chicken fried steak very big, mashed potatoes, yum! Macaroni and cheese, very original. Blueberry cheesecake awesome! Two employees, owners?? So friendly. Top notch!!

We finally got a chance to eat at 4J’s restaurant this evening. The meatloaf was really good. I ordered fried fish. Was crispy and fried just right. All sides were exceptionally good. The owners were very friendly. I can’t wait to try their gumbo and a few other items. If you haven’t dined in at 4 J ‘s restaurant, you’re missing out!!!

Don't know why I passed this place up for years. I have been missing out all this time. So if you like good hometown cooking. Just like when you was growing up. The Food is Fantastic All you can eat on Fridays such as Fried fish, deserts, better chicken wings then wingstop, and yes the Cat Fish is amazing piping hot fresh and great taste. Try this place folks it's really good.
