WHY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN US!
You can read the following Joji’s Diner reviews and will know that why we are a great American cuisine restaurant in Singapore.
Good service, shared about the eggs ben and they made a swift exchange. Appreciate much!!😍
First time dining at this restaurant and the food is nice. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. But avoid peak hour.
yummy western food! i really enjoyed the portobello mushroom burger - there was so much mushroom and definitely a must-order for mushroom lovers!food also came really quickly, and service was efficient and friendly 🙂
Decent sandwiches and a nice ambience. But very uncomfortable seats 😅
Great value for money American food. Had the waffles and chicken which was absolutely delicious.
I LOVE THIS PLACE, THE GUY AT THE COUNTER WITH THE CARHARTT OVERALL LITERALLY HELPED ME TO PAY FIRST USING HIS CARD COZ I AM A CASH PERSON. AND HE EVEN TOLD ME TO PAY $50 ONLY WHEN ITS SUPPOSED TO BE $52ISH? KUDOS TO HIM AND THE TEAM FOR MAKING MY FIRST EXPERIENCE HERE A NICE ONE! WILL DEFINITELY COME BACK AGAIN!THANK YOU GUYS!
Joji's diner serves good comfort food. Worth the hype, just be prepared to queue during peak hours.We had the chicken and waffles and Mac and cheese with grilled chicken add on, and the banana cream pie and cucumber mint cooler. All were good, except for the following points.The grilled chicken was an add on to the Mac and cheese, but it was served way ahead of the Mac and cheese. So the chicken was already cold when the Mac and cheese arrived.The Mac and cheese is placed under mains, but I think it should be served as a side dish given the size. I think the portions were small, and it could use a sharper cheddar.Will come back to try the sandwiches next door.
Love the food there! Portion just nice, and best it's 24 hours!! Only bad point is only one outlets, if only they can open it in the East side! Will definitely come back here again.
Simple mass market American food style. Nice though very sweet salty US fast food style. Cheap. Expect long queues.
Find it ridiculous to have to pay for butter for my waffle order. Shouldn't it be inclusive? Too much Blueberry sauce on it and it kills the taste. Serviettes should be made available with each order. Utterly disappointed.
Really enjoyed the food and the vibe of the place. The portion is generous and everything is delicious. The fried chicken is seasoned well, the waffles and pancakes are thick and tasty. Nothing to pick on. good comfort food.
We visited Joji's Diner Serangoon outlet and we enjoyed our dinner there with our ~2 year old girl.We would like to compliment one staff for being very accommodative, especially Ira, who lent a helping hand helping us handle our girl when she became chaotic.We believe that smiling and the nature of willingness to assist could be the metaphor of your company and thus it shows up among your staff! Thank you very much for being inclusive.
The mash it's ok, shakes is good. The rest ok, the usual American joint food. The fried Squid is good
This place is mid—at best, and that’s me being as generous as a grandma on Christmas. Sure, the décor is trying to be “kinda cool,” but it can’t save the tragedy happening in the kitchen. The food? Abysmal. The milkshake tasted like someone whispered the word “strawberry” over a glass of skimmed milk. The smash burgers? More like squash burgers—they’re made from meat so low-grade, I’m pretty sure my dog would turn his nose up. And as for the chilli on the side? It made a grand entrance after we were ready to leave, forcing us into the awkward ballet of asking for a refund. Spare yourself the misery—avoid this place like you would avoid a bad hangover.
It is bustling with people, and the portion was huge! A solid 10/10 ❤️Ordered Famer’s Market, was so good!
The food is nice and came hot + fresh. Serving size is perfect and not overwhelming. Wallet friendly prices too as a 24hr establishment.Highlight of my trip down here is the wait staff are so pleasant and friendly. Makes the whole experience better, thank you to all the staff working on 29 Dec 2024.I wish that they had root beer or root beer float on the menu though! The milkshakes are delicious, not as gelat as the ones at BlackTap which is a bit overbearing, you can finish it nicely on top of your meal.Squid came battered to perfection with spicy sauce on the side, mouthwatering 10/10.Definitely wouldn’t mind coming back in future.
came to joji’s diner on a saturday night at 7.45pm and placed order at 7.57pm. it’s very understandable that a saturday crowd is busy and food wait will take longer than usual but what i can’t except is the staff being so nonchalant about it when i enquired about my food TWICE. i placed order at 7.57pm and food only came at 8.35pm. im very sure the staff missed out on my food order because one set of mac&cheese came earlier and people around who were seated later than my party got their food first. the staff should go through more training in terms of customer service.
Retrospective place to enjoy your breakfast/supper at. The quality is more or less always the same, pretty decent for a specialised waffles and chicken place. The chicken feels ‘heatier’ than usual though, sometimes the batter feels and taste overfried. The other breakfast sets are nicely plated. For being a 24 hours outlet, 4.5!
Chicken and waffles are amazing! Will definitely be back here again.Staff service could have been better, seats were cramped and noisy tho
Seems to be known for its decor and waffle+fried chicken menu.In my opinion -Limited seats = long queue + limited eating time = not enough time to sit and chill.The food is over-hyped. Half the menu is brunch, the other half is limited. Food was OK, not something I'd queue for or a must-go.We tried the slapjack fry-up and smash burger.Both were mediocre.
Restaurant layout and seat configuration is too squeezy. Went with a group of 6, but all of their tables setting were only for either party of 2 or 4. Not a great location for big groups. Thermal comfort was poor, felt stuffy and claustrophobic, potentially due to the crowd. Overall food was great, decent portion for the price paid! Hope they could expand their storefront and space.
Great grilled chicken sandwich and sides are very unique! Reuben sandwich was ok…
May need to queue up but we didn’t waited long to be served. Staffs were friendly, attentive and accommodating to requests. Food is good. Waffles and chicken is a must order. Drizzle with maple syrup, you will like it. Pay 20 cents for extra butter. I personally find the grill chicken chop abit dry and tough.Parallel Parking available.
Nostalgia feeling.Very chill, sadly was take away services was quite bad seems to not be local waiter / waitress room for improvement
My first visit to Joji’s Diner was incredibly disappointing. Upon arriving, I noticed there were two identical-looking shops side by side. Naturally, I assumed one was an extension of the highly raved Joji’s Diner and walked into it. The interior looked identical to what I had seen online, so I didn’t think twice.However, when I looked at the menu, none of the items matched what I had seen in reviews. Confused, I asked the staff about it and was told I was actually at Joji’s Sandwich Parlour—a new 24-hour café opened by the same team behind Joji’s Diner. Apparently, if I wanted to order from Joji’s Diner’s menu, I had to go next door and take away.This was extremely frustrating. How would I know that the two shops served entirely different menus, especially as a first-time customer? To make matters worse, my boyfriend had already placed an order at the Sandwich Parlour. This meant I either had to wait for him to finish eating before we could move to the Diner or just skip my meal entirely.When we finally went to Joji’s Diner, I asked if I could order something I had seen in a picture on Google reviews. The staff responded that I had to order from the menu because they didn’t know how to identify the dish from the photo. WHAT? How does a restaurant not recognize its own food, especially if it’s featured in a review that likely attracted me there in the first place?The lack of clear signage, staff training, and basic customer service is baffling. The whole experience felt chaotic and disorganized. My boyfriend finished his food at the Sandwich Parlour, and we left without even trying the food from Joji’s Diner.Safe to say, I won’t be coming back.
This place is a good place for couple go dating. If talking about the food, normal and not worth the price.
Although pricey, the food does make up for the cost. Had great breakfast! Might come back again
tastes good but very unhealthy. good place to come for a cheat meal i guess. very noisy though and they have a dining time limit of 1h for peak hours. we had to queue at 645pm too. perhaps better to come during off-peak hours since they are open 24h.they have free flow maple syrup !! portions are huge too. 1 main and 1 side is good enough for 2 people.chicken and waffles were good. waffles are cake-y in texture. fried chicken fried to perfection.
Went to the diner at 7:30 in the morning. The place was empty except for 4 young adults. The two ladies, one cook and one cashier/hostess never came to my table. The cook looked at me, rolled her eyes and walked out. They never even asked me why I was sitting at the table. After 10 minutes I finally stood up and walked over to the front counter. I angrily asked to be served. The hostess/cashier kindly replied that I have to order at the counter. Later, I saw that two more Asians arrived and placed their orders from the table. Apparently they did not want to serve me at my table.The food was very bland. The bratwurst was not pork but chicken because it was very light color and falsely described as pork. I'm from America and know what real pork sausage tastes and looks like. Also the eggs weren't real. They tasted very gooey almost like imitation powdered eggs. The only thing good was the pancakes and orange juice.
Ordered chicken waffles and all star plate. Portion size is big compared to normal sizes we have in elsewhere so i guess the price is justified. Food is alright, tasted pretty mediocre but they were out fast.Atmosphere is neither disappointing nor special, deco is interesting and place is generally clean and not sticky or dusty.Oh and don't expect the kind of customer service you see in American shows, sg has no tipping culture.
I recently dined at Jojo's Sanwich and here are my thoughts:**Food:**The food portion was good, and the taste was absolutely delightful. Me and my partner ordered the Classic Reuben and Cod Sanwich. Each dish was well-prepared and flavorful, making the dining experience enjoyable from a culinary standpoint. I also ordered their flat white and to my surprise, it was really good.**Ambiance:**While the food was impressive, the overall dining experience was unfortunately affected by the presence of houseflies. It seemed that the main door was left open, which likely contributed to this issue. This detracted from the otherwise pleasant atmosphere of the restaurant. Air conditioning was also very cold.**Service:**The staff were attentive and friendly, ensuring that we had everything we needed. Their warm hospitality was much appreciated.**Overall:**While the quality of the food and the service were commendable, the presence of houseflies did mar the dining experience. I would recommend the restaurant for its delicious food, but I hope they address the issue with the main door to ensure a more comfortable dining environment in the future.
“Potato salad was dry, and the service staff seemed inattentive—waited in line for a while without anyone coming to assist. The place was noisy and bustling during lunchtime. Note that the two shops next door have different menus, so check before entering.”
If you are expecting value-for-money food, this is the place to go to. Also, if you need a 24-hour dining place, this will be one of the choices you should consider.Might need to queue at times. During peak hour, queue is expected. This is not an upmarket place. It is a good place to grab a quick meal. Not suitable for cafe connoisseurs.Staff members are responsive and helpful. Been here a couple of times. Will be back again 🌟
Reached around 6.30pm and it was already packed! Waited around 10-15 mins for a table of 2. Food was served really quickly and it was really good! Will definitely be back to try other items on the menu!
The ambience is really great! Nice little corner in Serangoon! Reminded me of the diners back in the US in the 90s. The smash burger was beef mixed with lamb, which was very nice as it tasted like a typical American burger but without too much oil.Strawberry Paddlepop Milkshake was nice and creamy! Only thing I have to say is service staff are pretty young so abit of training on how to speak to customers would be great. Overall we would definitely be back!
Superb food and affordable prices. Other diners charge exorbitant amounts for less.
We ate here and there is nothing great . It is not 'American style' as what locals here might think as I am a frequent traveller to the US.The taste of food was disappointing as I am a big fan for American burgers.
This restaurant is a gem tucked in little corner of Serangoon area. The food is great and affordable.
Would you guys please add the Tatetots option for the ”extreme loaded fries” on Grab 🙁
It was decent. Aesthetically pleasing but I personally feel the food could be better. 🙂
Wonderful American style restaurant, food taste was amazing, the portions also big, we can also customise our dishes based on our preferences, for me I don’t take pork and beef so they added additional salmon to my order which was Soo good, appreciate the staff there who takes our orders and serves with smile, enjoyed food here, have to try with family as everyone will like the food.
Food so so, but love the vibes here! Suitable for quick meet up with best friend, and its 24 hours!
Good overall. Just don’t sit at the tables outside. It’s too close to the road.
After leaving a 5 star review a year ago along since then recommending and bringing friends to this diner after tonights experience I have changed my opinion of the place to 1 star and will not visit again.I appreciate it is a busy diner and clearly indicates a 1 hour dining limit. However when we are still consuming our food / drinks and asked to leave - yikes. Perhaps a more tactful approach would be to "give a 10min notice" to finish their meal and conversation versus interrupting and asking us to "leave right now since there were 10 people waiting for a table". This whole ending to our dining experience also failed to consider the wrong meal was brought out which resulted in another 10-15min wait to begin eating.
Staff got lack of communication over seating. Different staff gave different answers for seats and ordering. No one seems to know their job. Walked away pissed.
Came before 8am the service was so reluctantly to service despite service charge was applied on the bill. Food wise was so-so, with the unpleasant dine in experience will not return again 👎
came here on a tuesday around 11pm and it was full, had to wait around 20 mins for a table.ordered the slapjack fry up and food was served within 10 minutes. it was quite filling which is great. service was good too
Generally with the pricing of the food, you can get better options elsewhere, but if you like the 80's American fast food theme and decor, you can give it a "one try".Disappointed with the staff when I was there for lunch. Order the food at 12.30pm, as the restaurant is packed with diners, the 2nd dish waffle chicken was served 20mins later, 12.50pm. Because there is this protocol that the restaurant do not encourage diners to stay more then an 1hour for food, I was reminded to leave at 1.30pm. I have yet to finished my earl grey drink and my partner has only just finished her waffle chicken as it was serve at 12.50pm, how do you expect us to finished the big serving waffle chicken in 30mins along with the drinks?The management should look into this and exercise more discrete and patience during peak hours.When you expect diner to honour the dining duration, please also be kind enough to served your dishes in timely order.
Seriously this place has the worst customer service in SG. They always prepare the grab order pick up last minute even though the app already notified that it's ready. Then if you go there and order takeway, they even charge service fee for their crappt service. Their food also suck by the way.
great representation of american style diners. good portion and amazing ambience
Amazing atmosphere, felt like i was transported to an actual diner. The portions is huge! Their morning wood was AMAZING love the mash.We went around 9ishpm (after dinner time) so we didn’t have to wait long before being seated. Definitely recommend to try !
I loved what I ordered but I can't remember the name of it now. It was really filling and worth the travel.
This place is nice if someone from western country wants to enjoy "Diner" type of food and atmosphere. The food was great. Portion is good and price is reasonable. We were served by this young man "TAN" as the restaurant was full we had to sit outsid, as it has been raining hard earlier. There were puddles near the curb. At time there were splashes of water onto our feet. We fed back to him and he gave us 2 complimentary dessert due to the inconvenience. It was really nice and unexpected. This is what I call service with a heart.
Very cool decorations and furnishing can take nice pics and the table comes with pepper & salt + syrup. Food was big portion and affordable so if you get full easily i recommend you to buy something smaller/share also i came around 5 pm sunday and it had many empty seats so thats good! Food came out relatively fast and the employees are nice. Btw, the prices are exclusive of 10% service charge and gst.
Located along the busy side of upper serangoon road this American styled diner is located opposite Nex. Parking could be challenging if it's during peak period. They serve all day breakfast and prices are reasonable and portions are pretty generous. U can actually consider sharing if you are not a very big eater. Was pretty happy with my visit, place was packed with folks who stayed around the area.
Passed by this place a few times, thought it was overdue to give it a try.Definitely a very American diner vibe, so close to what you see in the movies and on TV. Expect the Fonz to walk in any time. They are doing very well, having opened a sandwich bar in the next unit. The place was packed at 1130 on a Sunday.Yes, the reviews were right, the prices are high for the neighbourhood, more city. Especially the drinks which are nearly all over five bucks. Ordered the All Star Plate.The food came very fast, maybe five minutes. First impressions, quite generous. The sausage was the star, big, juicy, tasty. Makes up for the scrawny bacon, see pix. The baked beans were in a chili sauce with luncheon meat, didn't fancy that. The rest were pretty standard.Would I come back again? Maybe. Quite a wide menu, would like to try their chicken and waffles, and smashed burger. Drinks, get from the coffee shop next door!
I’ve eaten here a couple of times and I think that the standard has dropped quite a bit ever since they started to open 24 hours. Do give this a try if you enjoy American food from the south. The pricing is quite high despite the larger than average portion and the food scores higher for its presentation rather than its taste. I personally find the taste of the food kind of one dimensional, I think that there’s nothing special about it. However that is just my personal opinion. It is recommended to have the food here if you want to experience the ‘American diner’ decor.
Tbh i prefer the next door which is the joji sandwich but here is not bad also.Recommend to get the food but try to avoid the drinks because ive tried so many of their drinks all disappointing. Literally 1 sip and i didnt touch the drink throughout dinner. If really parched then no choice at your own risk but they provide water so its really good i love restaurants that provide water without charges 🩷Will definitely be back great spot for dating or hanging out with friends!
Love the vibe and aesthetic.It really feels like a Diner, food is fast as well and worth the price !!highly recommend
Really feels like a diner! Just get here earlier because the queues get really long. The food is quite nice and generous, and you’ve got quite the set of choices if you like all-day breakfast. It’s also quite the heavy meal so you definitely get what you pay for!
I miss the classic American diners of the past like Seah Street Deli and Billy Bomber's. This is a nice place that has a similar vibe. I went on a weekday lunch and it got full slightly after noon time, fed by a steady stream of students from the nearby schools.Food is well seasoned, tasty and very reasonably priced. I had the Chicken Waffle, Belo Burger and Cajun Squid Fritters. They were great and are highly recommended. Oh, and the servings are really big! Water is only served if you ask for it, but it's complimentary. Service was prompt and polite. The place is a bit tight so best to make reservations or come early.
Portions are quite generous and quality meets the standard too with pricing. Take note of the long queue as we waited for 30-40mins to get table for two during lunch time of Sunday.
The scrambled egg here is as close as you can get to a highway diner in the states
Got the Smash burger. It was constructed well, and the textures were on point. I enjoyed the bacon and the pickle. Overall, it was tasty, but it was too generous with the salt. I would certainly order it again if I had the opportunity to tone the salt down a bit.Decor was generally on point too and not too gaudy.
Order food from Joji's sandwich beside the restaurant instead as the menu is more unique and surprisingly good. A bit squeezy and noisy due to small space but retro feel is good
Food was mid. Service was horrible. Saw two staff flirting (not even kidding), paid 10% service charge but the counter staff did not know anything about the menu and tried upselling the $11.90 pancakes when I just told the staff I wanted the add on 1.90 pancakes for my meal. The staff only served water to people that asked and the tissues had to be asked for. Will not come back again.
Food is awesome! ☺️ so glad that it is 24 hour 🩷. Able to come and eat for supper 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This fried thing slaps your mouth with flavour. Very yum yum in your tum tum. Friends enjoyed the food.
Exactly what I expected. American burgers, hotdogs, waffles and other stuff that’s unhealthy but so so good.Staff is good, they are attentive and answer you in a pleasant way.Food has generous portions considering the price of most items is below $15.Environment is pretty authentic too with the classic American diner vibe.Inside seating is full if you go on peak hours but you might have a chance to sit outside. Will def go back to try other stuff!
The Shrimp Po’boy came with 10-12 large tiger prawns, all perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The sauce added a delicious kick, making every bite so satisfying.If you’re a beef lover, you have to try their Classic Reuben. The beef is juicy and tender, packed into a flavorful burger that’s just unforgettable. Highly recommend both dishes!
The chicken is very hard. People with bad teeth are advised not to eat it.
No bad a place for supper as it opens 24hours. Food is good but portion is small. Went at about 2am and the place is 70% full. Price is on the high side , but there's no much choice during late in the night. Parking is quite easy
🌍 follow for more reviews around the world 🌎Food: huge portion sizes just like America. As an American the food quality of the dishes were very spot on which mad me think the owner or chef is from the US. Chilli cheese fries were my favorite. Ribs were super tender but they need some salt rub as the bbq sauce falls off. We got a sandwich but it was a bit too salty. Cornbread was good (not too dry). Next time I want to try the milkshake.
Very busy n noisy place at night. Was here on a Saturday night. Needed to wait about an hour before sitting. Limited menu. Only 2 varieties for pancake and one for waffles. Not the kind of diner that I was expecting. Has duck 🦆 confit, chicken, fish for main. Pancakes and waffles were pretty tasty. The rest of the food so so.
The staff is not good service at all, after some drinks, me n my brother intended to sit outside but no one came to ask anything. Honestly, I’m a boss, I won’t wan this type of employee who dun bring business to the boss.
Service is bad, the staff chasing me out and tell me because there is a queue outside. There is a rule stated limited 1hr dining time during peak hour, but thurs night is not peak hour. Still ask me to go in 10mins, very rude. 😡😡
Pricey cafe, this is like an American style diner with chicken and waffles. While not overwhelming delicious, I do feel that it is a unique experience and the food definitely pass the vibe check.The crowd do come for dinner so make a reservation or come early😇
Dont bother going. Food is not worth the hype. Pancake is dry and very thick. Milkshake is on the diluted side. Only plus point is that portions for certain dishes are on the generous side.
Very long wait. But very worth the wait. Excellent service from the waitress who served us and attended to our request. Very thankful. Do visit!!
the atmosphere is good.. made me felt like i was in america. ordered chix waffle. it’s good ah in my opinion. but too jelat for me. in addition with the banana milkshake 🤣. overall it’s affordability and operation hours 👍 👍 👍
Nice american style diner. Seats are quite limited. Signature breakfast platter is good and has a great variety. Mixed berries ice tea is refreshing and helps to wash the palate.
Wait time is long because the food is too good, worth the long wait, their food is extremely good and has reasonable price
Food is great ! Really Gelate though. Meant for sharing of 2 and perhaps order of 1 side if your scared you won't be full.
if order not done, don't tell us it's packing. ended up waiting for another 10mins.
Located along Upper Serangoon Road, opposite Nex Shopping Center.Their big Sign Board is hard to miss .. unless you are driving too fast ...Public Parking is limited by a few lots ... another option will be to find HDB Parking nearby or park at Nex.Had a late brunch .. ordered their Specialty Classic Reuben, with Pico de Gallo and Potato Mash - Well arranged and delicious !!!Chef's Salad came in a big bowl, enough for 2 to share ...I had their Long Black coffee ... strong and aromatic - only mistake is that I ordered too early .. and by the time I ended the meal, the coffee was cold ... it would have tasted best, hot and ordered after meals.Their Noice Grape Drink is refreshing with fresh grapes and soda.Ordered their specialty dessert, Granny's Carrot Cake, with vanilla ice cream ... although a small slice, it packs a punch !This place is popular with younger crowds, couples .... but also ideal for family for a quick bite to go ....Staffs are Friendly and Helpful ... good service !+!
Here’s a shout from to Joji. Being repeat customers, we are always amazed by the quality of their food! The fluffy pancakes are awesome and you have to try it with the whipped butter, juicy pork sausage and smoked salmon is a MUST! Great americano tops it all! Come try and you won’t regret it!
Queues are always long but the food is really great. Can be gelat after a while as the portions are large but very satisfying and full of flavour.
The places look very retro and gives off the vibe of a diner in the movies from the past. Favourite would be the chicken and waffles because of its affordability size and how juicy it is. American size as some would put it. 10/10Mac and cheese, scrambled egg were alright, nth special about them 5.5/10Fried squid, was a little tough but the sauce was nice. 6/10, nice as an appetiser to start off withSide note, the waffles are the kind that slightly crunchy like the ones they serve in waffle ice cream dessert shops
A 24 hr diner.... After the USS Halloween, decide to come over for supper/breakfast. Old school diner like those in US.... Now they have another outlet call Joji sandwich parlour... Just beside.... Not yet try... Maybe some other day.... Food is decent, Quite pack even during midnight... I was there around 2am...So you might have to wait if you see inside sitting is full.... But overall... Not bad....
The food was very delicious, expecially the squid, which is fresh. They also have beef steak sandwiches like the brisket sandwich. Highly recommended!!
Nice small diner. For cafe food this is reasonably priced and super tasty!I had the signature burger at $15 and steak at $24. Highly recommend getting both. The burger bun is oily as heck so be prepared to have some tissues around. Steak comes with rösti and that was a surprise since it wasn’t indicated in the menu.There’s parking around the area as well, the front has free night parking.Will definitely come back.
SIMILAR TO THE OTHER REVIEWS, we were 20minutes into our meal and the indian ladies wanted to clear our food 🙁 the rude glances throughout our meal made the whole experience extremely unpleasant!
food was average, perhaps we ordered the wrong dishes. couldn’t understand the hype.
Friendly and patient chap taking reservations and assigning tables. He alone will draw me to go back. Food was tasty and promptly cook. Will go back again.
Joji is one of our go to places for its all day breakfast menu! One of our favourites is the buttermilk pancakes with blueberry compote, but it has changed since the last time we visited - strawberry and bananas, thicker pancakes and lesser compote. We preferred the thinner pancakes since the center doesn’t get too cakey!
Loved it. Tried the house's signature Smash Burger, which is done perfectly. Will definitely return for the other items on the menu.
Waiting time 40-60 minutes in the afternoon, and they don’t take reservations so you might have to hang around the area for a while. Chicken and waffles was delicious but after eating half started to get dry. The egg was also cold which is a bit puzzling. Interior is very retro and good for photos
Brown colour long straight hair lady staff serviece is good , keep smiling even busy , customer looked at kitchen she can notice isit something never serve , food is not bad potion quite big , other staff is all friendly
First time at Joji’s Diner. The food was tasty and the atmosphere was great. Young staff crew but they were professional and polite. Definitely coming back again. Hope to see addition of desserts on the menu.
You honestly can't go wrong with any of the items in the menu they provide. Food is awesome and filling.My only complaint would be that the restaurant is too cold. I also saw a large tissue pile of tissue paper covered in shit on the floor when I went to wash my hands at the toilet.
Mistakenly perceived as the typical American suburban diner. It's very crowded, food is so,so only but expensive. Outdoor seating too near rubbish bin. too near puffers by the roadside. Nothing like Pop's Choco'lit diner shown in Archie's Riverdale town
I go to the counter and order my food and drinks yet service is at the bare minimum. But I still have to pay service charge which all the time I am actually providing my own service. Maybe the boss of the restaurant should do something about this? Yet the other sandwiches restaurant have service charge but no gst. Like huh? What is wrong?? 2 person 80 plus for it is not cheap leh
food waa really good. btr than expected.Service was 3, but i do not blame them as they seem pretty new to the job thus the confusion but alls good. atmosphere was good and i wouldve given 5star until a baby started screaming. dont blame me or the place. blame the baby
The food was delicious and affordable. My favourite is the slap jack meal. The pancakes were really tasty, soft and fluffy.
Great food and vibes, would come back for the waffle chicken and the pancake is so soft and fluffy
came here twice and have to say this places gives a very cosy vibe but do take note there will be longer waiting times on weekends but overall their food is quite nice
First time dining here. The breakfast spread looks incredible. Waffles tasted really nice on its own and the cheesy Omelette tasted so good. Will visit again to try other stuffs.
love the rustic antique american diner vibe potrayed excellently at jojis diner, food reasonably priced for its portion and immaculate flavour, highly recommend the loaded spuds 🍟, waiting time for food adequately reasonable and staff were friendly and initiative
good food, what you pay is what you get. the thing always long que everyday coz if worth the price
Like many Singaporeans who have yet to visit the iconic pop culture hub that is the USA, we grew up immersed in television (streaming wasn’t a thing in the '80s, kids). Those shows gave us a glimpse into a culture that subtly shaped our imaginations. The classic '60s diner aesthetic stands out as one of those influences—think of the TV sitcom "Happy Days" or films like "Back to the Future." If you’re too young go Google it no Cap!Joji’s Diner clearly draws inspiration from that nostalgic vibe. I might be off base, but I have a hunch that the owner or one of the team members is in their mid-40s. The decor and atmosphere are spot on, transporting you to a whimsical slice of American culture. (or pie?)As for the food, it’s good and straightforward, easy to enjoy without any fuss. However, the menu is a bit limited, featuring just two milkshake flavors, one type of burger, and a single grilled cheese option. But the real highlight? The desserts! Oh my goodness, they are absolutely glorious! Why? Because they’re wonderfully simple! The blueberry pancakes come with the option of a scoop (or two) of vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry ice cream. The pancakes are cold on top where the ice cream rests, while the bottom layer is warm and fluffy. Definitely worth every extra calorie!The only thing I’d suggest adding are some tunes and themed staff uniforms. Come on, Joji’s Diner—go all in! I absolutely love it!
Great food great prices. Anything with their Eggs, Hash or Waffles can't go wrong. Choose an off peak time to visit if you don't like waiting.
Decided to try this place out with a friend since we heard good reviews about the food. Was not disappointed at the American diner plus retro vibes. It really teleported me to the American dramas/series I've been watching, it's like travelling to America without a passport. They also had catchy songs, the ambiance would have been complete if they had a jukebox.The food was delicious, sinful and scrumptious. I would definitely come back again just to try the other delights they had in the menu. Its so wonderful to have breakfast anytime of the day. If you're on a cheat day, Joji's is the place to be!
Abit of a wait to be seated, but excellent service, amazing food and happy vibes!
Came here with friends for dinner, food was ok but honestly it felt super gelat and honestly overall underwhelming experience. atmosphere honestly feels quite dead and decor is quite plain and gives sensory overlod
If you're coming for the food, don't bother, it's pretty bad, out of everything me and my friends ordered, we recommend, slap something jack, and the waffle chicken. Still a decent place if you're coming for the vibes and for the ig stories, staff are all pretty nice and very approachable, respect. over all recommend if you're coming for the vibes and the aesthetics but NOT the food.
My son happened to pass by this restaurant and noted it was crowded in the afternoon, so we decided to check it out for our dinner.This place reminded me of Billy Bomber.We ordered Morning Woods, Omelette and Hash, and Wayside Waffles.Out of the three mains, we all agree that Morning Woods was really good. We like the mash potato, the mushroom, and the sausages (which is not too salty). We also like the waffles but thought the bacon's taste good but were a bit dry. As for the Cheese Omelette, our views were divided on the cheese filling. It might be good to have cheese options.Overall, it was a pleasant meal with a great serving size. We will visit againWe noticed quick a few diners order the chicken and waffles. We will give a try on the next visit.
I actually dined at the Joji's Seafood next door. The cod fish and mushroom cheese sandwiches are delicious, and they are huge servings too! You can have choices of 2 sides - highly recommend the hash (rosti), onion rings, and pasta salad. Very decent coffee is served here.
The food service was fast, staff is friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. Will be back to try the waffles next time.This place has the winning combination of being a 24 hour place and affordable western food! Definitely a gem and great place to bring friends or dates. There are parking lots not too far away from the place.
Affordable and huge portion! Walkable distance from serangoon mrt. Food are cooked well. Good place to take picture. Good customer service as well but can be very cramp and loud sometimes.
We ordered 4 chicken and waffles and they served it plate by plate at intervals of 10 minutes each. Chicken in the waffle was also dry
Remember Billy Bombers. The seats are exactly like those at Billy's. Those missing the 70s US vibe can come here 247. Atmosphere is fantastic. Servers depends in which day the day I had was mostly young malays. Minahs friendly but have that hint of boleh attitude. Food took some time to come. By the way they have also expanded and open another space beside this. Lesser decor and more of a wooden bar bbq feel.Food wise was near SHIT for one of the dishes. The calamari was so overfried that we left so many pieces uneaten. Refer to photos. The main 'all star plate' portion was generous. But some ingredients were off. Beans OK. Scrambled egg OK. Bacon is sadly not crpisy, cube potatoes were the worse. Dried and some unedible. Mushroom sliced and hard. Pancake was not fluffy. Hot dog seems abit overdone.Will probably come back for the vibe or when at night no where to go.
Love the strawberry milkshakes. The grillCheese well like by my gals. I had the waffles & chicken , loves the chicken very crispy. Overall nice place for lunch , portion just nice. Definitely will be back to try others dish on the menu.
The food was great, had the milkshake with the donut, it was special. Was hesitant to come initially as I read the reviews about the waiting time, but it was unexpectedly quite fast. Have to wait for about 30mins to get seated but the waiter did advise us this beforehand. Waited only about 15mins for the food. Would recommend to go and definitely will visit again. 👍🏻
Went with a group of friends on a Sunday evening for dinner. Fortunately, we didn’t have to wait long for our turn.The restaurant ambience is pretty cozy. Food portion is pretty huge. If you are a small eater, recommend that u order one and share with your friend.The chicken is tender and juicy, waffle with maple syrup give it a nice sweet and savoury combination.Pancakes are soft and quite thick. Goes well the maple syrup.The fried squid is just ok, taste like those u can find in donki.Overall recommend for the price point and the experience.
Staff took our numbers down and we waited 1h+ but we were not given a table. Saw a couple of people doing walk in’s to the store and so we tried to walk in as well. We saw 8 empty seats (3 empty tables) and we were not told that seats were ready for us. As frequent customers to this diner, I am disappointed with their service especially with the lady (not the 2 Indian ladies). She had extremely terrible attitude and was the one who entered our mobile number but didn’t contact us when seats were ready.Unsure if we’d come back again, food was good but service definitely sucked.
Medhni has the best service! She greets and attends to all patrons with a smile, she really radiates positivity and it is evident she puts in her all to ensure all customers leave with a positive experience!Do raise Medhni pay or role! I have been here so many times and her service is consistently amazing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Lovely Space with wonderful staff and their main just hit the right spot in early morning breakfast All Star Plate with a glass of OJ.
Read review that this place is good so decided to give it a try. Went for their famous blueberry pancake and WAITED for 25 minutes!! And it’s not even full house.When pancake arrived, it is absolutely HORRIBLE. just save your time and money, don’t ever come here.
The seats are limited and odd in configuration. Five of the booths inside are actually 2-seaters; one bench facing a table. At best, they could pull up a chair to seat 3. So if you go in a group of 4 or more, especially at peak hours, be prepared to wait quite a long time. It was kinda odd waiting and looking at the empty booths and wondering why nobody in the queue was getting seated until a friend of ours popped in to ask and realized that was the situation, cos the perspective from the outside made it hard to see.The food is American diner food, very generous in portion. Taste wise it was OK. The grilled cheese sandwich oddly came with beef chili inside the sandwich, making it a lot heavier and completely hiding the taste of the cheese. The mac and cheese was pretty good, with a lovely crust, but also too much of the same thing after a few bites. The blueberry pancakes were massive, and the blueberry syrup rather synthetic and sweet, unfortunately. Our friends ordered the omelette, which was great, and apparently their chicken and waffles are very good as well.
Awesome place with awesome vibes! Went with friends on a Sunday lunch, got seated v quickly. Tried pancakes and waffles dishes, I would opt for waffle next time, light and fluffy with a hint of cinnamon. The portion is huge as well. Really decadent.Fuss free ordering at the counter, but I wonder why we had to pay service charge when there were minimal service at the tables.
Excellent food. Could have a few more 4 seater tables, other than that, all good!
The food here is solid. Their tater tot, fried squid and fried chicken is lit. Curly fries is good and tastes like McDonald’s curly fries.
We just had a late lunch there and we enjoyed everything we had, I thought everything was perfectly cooked and perfectly seasoned, I didn’t need extra salt or pepper or sauces. 😋😋😋👍👍👍I would love to come back here again and try more of their food, loved the waffles, pancakes and sausages - juicy and tasty! Chicken was moist inside but well seasoned and crispy fried outside! We had a few of the cold teas - mixed berries and earl grey, and all the drinks were real thirst quenchers, exactly how much tall drinks I always wanted, but never got until today! Thank you for the fast and friendly service too!
Pretty good American style cuisine that open 24 hours.The food item is big in portion and flavourful.I like their Cajun Squid Fritters, fries and popcorn chicken.
When it comes to “All-American diner”, look no further than Joji’s diner.Despite their chicken waffles being the most popular main, I decided to get their Slapjack Fry-Up . For dessert, I had their Blueberry Pancake and a Strawberry Milkshake.Slapjack Fry (Main)- classic scrambled eggs with pork sausages and buttermilk pancakes. Very delicious although the buttermilk pancakes are too thick for my liking.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Blueberry Pancakes (dessert)- sautéed blueberries, 2 buttermilk pancakes and whipped cream. Similar cooking style to Cherry jubilee. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Strawberry milkshake - pre made Strawberry syrup with whipped cream and frozen strawberries. Not too fond of this one because it has a very artificially sweet flavour. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Food is honestly good. But really not worth the extra long wait between the dishes. We waited 2hrs for 3 items. Plus we got seated at the extended not so nice side of the restaurant so we definitely did not have the same retro dining experience we were looking forward to.
Thanks for serving us an excellent American food chefs! Love the ambience and vintage settings. We are coming back for more! We have lived and eaten in the States and this Diner gives the best in Singapore compared to others! Trust me!
Excellent service from staffs! Oh my.... The portions are huge and worth the money! Delicious meals and desserts. We visited the first time and returned again with my family. Thank you for providing the best American food and drinks in Sg coz no where to be found. Highly recommended to everyone but be aware this place is always crowded during peak hours and at times even non peak hours because of the the amazing taste! We are looking forward trying other dishes! Definitely coming back!
the place isn't instagram-worthy looking anymore but food is good, & seems like theres more seats. all the retro cushions have beennreplaced with wooden benches. portion is big. milkshake is too sweet & heavy. will still come again overall.
Waited for my order for almost an hour and was getting a little bit heated . But the server realised it and gave 2 drinks in the house. However, recommended to come during off peak hours.
Enjoyed the food overall but I feel like I need to address the issue of the beef chilli. I don’t think you should call it chilli, because what was actually served to us was a bowl of bolognese. I feel you should rename it on the menu or change the recipe!
Came here on a weekday at 12 noon, place was about three quarters full. I tried the signature smash burger and it was good. Burger only came with fries, but I feel that a scoop of coleslaw would have really rounded off the meal nicely. Decor is like what you would see in a diner featured in those tv shows and movies. Seems like they're opening a sandwich place next door so something else to look forward to. I would go back to try the other dishes for sure.
Honestly, i don’t know about the quality of service anymore. Firstly, the guy told us that we will be seated in 30mins, decided to wait. Ended up waiting for 1hr+. After the 1hr+ of wait and starvation, we still wait for another 30-45 mins for our food… I don’t really know what’s their process or system. But I am sure that it is not efficient at all and does not provide the most optimal service. Something for Joji to think about. Furthermore, as you can see in the picture here, their utensils are so dirty and the syrup bottle is not properly cleaned. (I understand that it might be the previous customers who made it so dirty but they shld make sure that we get a clean table too). Not sure if they even cleaned it properly. I feel that there is no need for us to be waiting for so long, to end up having a bad customer service, unhygienic utensils, pricey food and wrong order. Do i need to add that the staff do not even address or look at customer’s held up hands, they just walk past even though my hand is clearly held so high. Lastly, they freaking double ordered our order which meant that we had to pay additional. We wanted to add on pancake. Not order another set with pancake. Ended up 3 people eating too much food. I get it that it was also our fault for not double checking. (but just saying that this just adds up to the bad experience, because we clearly stated that we wanted to add-on sides and not another dish) Btw this is my second time here (mind you, this means that we are not frequent customers), and this encounter was definitely a degrade for Joji.
I would say this is a five star place for their pancakes, and if you didn’t have to wait (like on a weekday lunch)!All star plate - Pancakes were really good, fluffy and buttery. Sausage was thick and chunky. Mushrooms were slightly garlicky, baked beans look homemade. Hash brown cubes were well seasoned and fried. Scrambled eggs were soft and fluffy. Solid plate of food.
The portion sizes are decent, and while the taste is nothing special, the presentation is quite good.The chicken waffles were okay, but they would benefit from a signature sauce to elevate the flavor.As for the 'MORNING WOOD' dish, the pork sausage portion was satisfactory, though the taste left much to be desired.Service time was reasonable, with only a short wait for the food to arrive.The menu is straightforward and classic, though it lacks visuals, so you'll need to rely on descriptions to imagine the dishes.Unfortunately, the drinks fell short and were below expectations.
Nice place and reminds me of Denis' last time. Old American diner place.Food is good and portion is huge.24hours is a plus!
This spot is straight-up fire! 😍🔥 The egg was cheesy AF and the pancake? Mind-blowing! 😱 Totally worth every bite. The vibes were on point and major shoutout to the staff for offering us a better spot for our heavy bags – that was a clutch move. 🙌 Only bummer was the QR code for the menu led to a YouTube page instead of the actual menu pics. Still, I’m definitely coming back to try more from the menu. 💯 Great experience overall!
The quality of the food and beverages was satisfactory. The ambience of the establishment was conducive to the relaxation and enjoyment of the meal. However, the service left room for improvement. There was a notable delay in the delivery of our food, with the first order arriving approximately 20 to 25 minutes after placement and the second order following 10 minutes later. Additionally, we were informed by the waitstaff that we had exceeded the allotted dining time, which seemed unreasonable given the tardiness of the food delivery. It would be beneficial for the establishment to consider the impact of food delivery timing on customer dining experiences.
The ambiance is pleasant, offering a classic American fast food experience with nostalgic music from the 2000s. The food quality is satisfactory. However, the waiting time leaves room for improvement, as it took approximately 30 minutes to be seated on a Sunday evening, followed by a further delay before the food was served.
Ordered Chicken Waffles - Superb must orderSlapJack Fry-up - the Pancakes kind of dry and use margarine instead of butter. Can skip pancake dishAll star plate - don’t add grilled chicken very drySides ordered Chicken pops and tatertots ( both very good)Other all enjoy the food will visit again
Get it out the way: food was bomb, best American breakfast I've had in Singapore so far, and portions were very generous. However, dinner time (8pm) service wasn't up to our expectations. I went with a party of 2.1. Waiting in queue for about 40 minutes and registered our names within their iPad. However, we were disappointed to see a bunch of patrons that registered after us get their tables first, despite us being physically in the queue.2. We were first given the 4-seater bench tables at the side. Before we even sat down, service staff told us to be ready to shift to the middle 2-seaters later during the dinner service (I'm perplexed af?) since we were only 2 people. This was explained terribly and is extremely off-putting, but we decided to stay and give Joji's a chance since we already made the trip.3. Without warning, staff had asked us to vacate our seats within 5 mins, even though we still had a a lot of food left. We were not made aware of the 1 hour dining time and it caught us off guard. We had to rush down our food or risk wasting a lot of it from having to leave within that 1 hour period.I love Joji's food. However, service was downright disappointing and it soured our experience coming there. I can only hope that their service is better during off-peak hours or they fix it by actually training their staff to be more communicative and sensitive to customers. Until then, once is enough.
Foods are good in portion and not very expensive. Fried foods are too dry and a bit of overcooked.
food was spectacular, huge proportion and i was barely able to finish my food. amazing feel to the place, exactly like a diner and very nostalgic. i had the slapjacks and added bacon, highly recommend (i could not finish the second slapjack)warning: i would not recommend going at dinner time whatsoever (6-9pm). horrible waiting times, staff are trying to turnover the tables quickly so they rush you out of the seat. the 1 hour dining time is a bit ridiculous, maybe 1h 15min would be good considering the waiting time for the food as well. queue system needs to be fixed and solidified. my party of 2 was let in after some others that came after us despite being registered first on the ipad.
Food is underwhelming and overrated. Portion sizes are pretty large. Chicken burger has not much flavour but is tender. Breakfast is slightly cold and soggy throughout. The banana milkshake was nice and thick though.
Portion is huge. The fried chicken from the chicken and waffles is amazing
First time here staff mad friendly pricing crazy affordable and atmosphere so dope. Honestly recommend if u wanna take someone out on a date or smth
staff didn’t follow proper food hygiene standards. saw them touching their untied hair and then proceeding to grab straws and strawberries with unwashed hands. After serving drinks can still play with hair. thoroughly disgusted. Flies in the dining room. Staff even dragged a full trash bag while there were 4-5 tables occupied. so glad I didn’t order
There is a very American vibe and the decorations are very detailed. The potatoes are very well seasoned and the eggs are okay. Pancakes have a light cinnamon taste but the pancakes are quite thick. Overall a very good experience. (Serving portions are very big)
Great smash burger. The meat of beef and lamb is great combination and well cooked. Lots of curly fries with it. Not a fan of the strawberry milkshake as there’s too much fruity pebbles like stuff in it. The mixed berries tea is interesting.
Pretty crowded on a Monday night. Waited for about 30mins to be seated. The vibes and atmosphere in the cafe felt like you're in an American's diner, the portion was huge as well. The price is affordable for the portion given. Parking here can be a challenge unless you don't mind walking about 5mins from the nearest HDB carpark. Overall, I would be back again.They are open 24/7 too.
fried chicken waffle was huge. chicken was juicy, crispy and well marinated, waffle was light and fluffy. portions of the all-day- breakfast platters were worth the price as well.will be back for more.
Food is very delicious with affordable price. It is also 10 minutes from Serangoon Nex. Even better,now they open 24 hours. The environment is superb for selfie.
The diner was quite packed when I got there with three other people already waiting in the queue. However, I managed to be seated within 20 minutes after I arrived at the diner.The menu that I used to order food and drink was vibrant with colour and rife of personality, which included a QR code that lead to a hilarious joke even in this day and age.So was the interior and exterior of the diner whose decor reminded me of an American diner in the 50's accompanied by the leather red and white chairs and black and white checkered floor.A few moments after my order which didn't take too long, a staff member cheerily served me the food that I ordered.The food was quite delicious and to my liking!I would definitely want to come back here again for a meal.
Exceptional service from the team, some of the menu items are a hit or miss like the blueberry pancakes which you’ll get bloated trying to finish the sauce before you can even get to the pancakes (most authentic pancakes ever btw none of that fluffy japanese nonsense). The prices are quite steep as well but then suddenly you got the All Star Plate which is the most perfect meal I’ve ever had in my entire existence! I only hope they can expand their space because the waiting times are ridiculous and the wall seats are awkward facing.
Food was good and portion was big. Do avoid peak hour 6pm to 9pm esp during weekend. Waited around 1 hr for our seats, waffles arrived around 30min.
It was very fun and service was quite fast . Although we were not able to eat up finish everything,they asked us if we needed a bag for all of the food.All of the food were amazing and I would recommend The Bird Burger
The blueberry compost pancake is awesome, size wise a taste but if you are going foe the steak and eggs, should order medium or medium well as the meat has a funny taste when it's cook under medium. The shakes are nice too. Basically 85% of the food is awesome
We went to Joji’s diner on a Saturday late afternoon and was surprised to see how busy the diner was at this non-peak hour. It has all the American diner’s typical comfort food on the menu (e.g. waffles, pancakes, milkshakes, burger, all day breakfast). I ordered “Bello burger” (mushroom burger) coming with curly fries. The burger is quite heavy with a lot of garlic butter and cheese so may be not something to have too often but it certainly tasted good. My partner has chicken waffles which was also delicious. Outdoor seating is thankfully pet friendly but beware that it can be quite noisy with road traffic.
The vibes are there for sure.Restaurant is quite small with limited seating capacity.Food wise is not bad; the only thing is that the curly fries is not crispy- it was soggy and oily.
Food is not bad, but I think not all dishes are priced fairly. The steak that I had was lackluster for the price.
employee was super nice, he was the chef, the server, and also the customer, very well trained in all areas, the services was top notch, loved the milkshakes👍
As an American, this place passes the test easy. If you come here expecting Denny's... You can't be helped.Food - easy 5*Ambiance - 6*Service - was busy, still 5*Authenticity - 5* considering available ingredients.Price/value - 5*Wayside waffle will be my go-to; absolutely delicious. Great pancakes and eggs as well.Only thing I would change would be to add a simple, cheaper pancake side dish top up option.
American fare at a decent price, come at odd timings to avoid queues and enjoy your food at a comfortable pace!
This diner is a nostalgic gem that truly delivers on its promise of a classic diner experience with a modern twist. The atmosphere is charmingly retro, with vintage decor and a lively vibe that makes you feel like you've stepped back in time. The menu is packed with comfort food classics, and the quality of the dishes is outstanding.The milkshakes are thick and creamy, and the portions are generous. Their breakfast options are also worth a try—pancakes, eggs, bacon, all done just right.However, one thing to keep in mind is the wait time during peak hours. When I visited during the dinner rush, the wait was about 45 minutes to an hour. While the long wait was a bit frustrating, it’s clear that Joji's is popular for a reason, and the food was worth it.
Prepare to wait for at least an hour during peak timing. Very crowded. Chicken and waffle is not too bad. Other food is just ok. Price is cheap. Staff is friendly.
Food so so...Calamari was hard n salty. Some hot drinks not available like hot choc. Strawberry milkshake not available. Atmosphere pretty cramp but cosy. Went there ard 2am on a Mon morning. Service counter indian guy attitude serve as tho i owe him money.. Dude if u not happy dont work on night shift.. Customer Crowd Gen Z..
Food was really really very good all 5 of my friends liked it and when one of us left something behind in the restaurant the waiter came out and gave back the item, very good service and food
Delightful service as the waiter managed to get me a requested booth after 5mins of waiting instead of the expected 30mins. Long queue forming at the small restaurant even on a rainy day. The chocolate shake is interesting with the cookies and donut. Steak with medium doneness and eggs were yummy. Smash burger is quite good. My partner loved the pulled meat on waffles. 5 out of 5 for a wonderful time there.
CrowdPurposely went at 8am to avoid the obnoxiously long peak wait times which you can only queue-register in person, and there is nothing in the vicinity to really roam about for to kill time. There is Woodleigh Mall or NeX which is about 2 bus stop distance away. Even on a Sat at 11am and the wait times were already 30 minutes long, and the waiting area outside is quite narrow.FoodTried the All Star Plate and it was worth. Get the french toast for the choice of bread. For drinks, I tried the Hot Chocolate, not that worth imo and would not order again.Interior and AmbienceReally cold for some reason, bring a jacket or you'll freeze. There's maybe only 1 or 2 tables that's not facing the Aircon wind.PricesOne person's meal + drink summed up to $20+ due to restaurant charging service charge and cafe priced drinks.OverallWould come again for their food and ambience, best time to come would be off peak hours
Mixed feelings here. I visited Joji's Diner for supper and was lucky to find plenty of available seats, but the place was packed within 30 minutes.I love the diner's classic American decor; it really gives off a nostalgic vibe. However, the random hole in the wall covered with posters makes me wonder what's going on.The menu is old, tattered, and filthy, which is a bit off-putting. The selection is interesting, though. I ordered the chili dog, but it was too soggy to pick up and eat. The taste was average at best. I hope they expand their drink options.Despite the mixed experience, I might swing by again to try other items on the menu.
Sat, 5+ pm no Q, staff friendly, food ordered takes ab 30min to come, overall ambience is nice,only if the chair orientation can be adjust to cater for big group
TGIF! Cafe hunt starts from here…. The big breakfast is decent. But, coffee is goood! 😋
Breakfast all day! American diner experience. Crowds can get heavy past 11pm. Food was good, not great. The pancakes were great tho!
Food is great! Staff nice but when it becomes busy they need to keep calm and smile ~Place is abit cramped when it gets busy. Overall is great!
Price is goodFood is goodAtmosphere is good too.Definitely will come back again
Simple place for American food. Nothing fancy and the price is reasonable.
Love the themed, food was good. However, weekend nights isnt ideal to dine in. Took abt more than an hour to be seated and the food came 50mins later.
Dont get the hype of this place. Came once, ordered the pink lemonade and it came with a side of hair. When we told the staff, he said it could not be theirs and told us to just remove it. Food was alright the first time. Not very tasty but passable.Decided that it was one bad experience and gave it another chance. Went to Joji's for supper expecting a better experience. I ordered the breakfast platter at around and added a grilled chicken. The food served was cold and the chicken was hard. Could tell that it was left out for a few hours as it tasted cold and stale.
The food variety is good, staff and service is great! The ambience is nice as well, just that you might have to wait in order to get a seat. Went on a weekday after midnight, yet the place was bustling. Highly Recommended
Really yummy food here and portions are big and nice. Enjoyed my time here with my brother and daughter. Will definitely be back for more!
Great food. Aircon a little too cold 😂 which is something I never thought I would say in Singapore 😆
Went on a weekday evening, had to wait about 30mins to get a seat. Was very unimpressed by all the fried dishes - chicken and waffles + the Cajun squid were all completely overfried, resulting in a very tough texture and also very oily. Not sure if this is the standard as it’s my first time here. The smash burger and eggs ben were good though, and the strawberry lemonade was not too sweet. Overall slightly above average food at decent prices but not worth a special trip down. Would only visit if in the area
Went for breakfast at 7am, it was nice and empty. Had a latte and a grilled cheese. Hit the spot perfectly! This 24-hour place really lives up to being a diner.-----Better than expectedTried two variations of their all day breakfast for dinner, and surprisingly, my favourite part was their potatoes!The garlic bread was also very addictive. Pancakes were fluffy, with more syrup available in a jar at the table.Portion size was good, and each element of the breakfast was hearty - beans, bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs.I felt it lived up to being diner food. Simple but well done, not trying to be fancy like another all day breakfast place I can think of that costs double.We also enjoyed the mac & cheese (the cheese had a bit of paprika in it I think - yum!), and a pink lemonade which had sugar on the rim. I was a bit jealous of the next table's milkshake, but I wasn't ready to pay almost $10 for one.Booth seats and brightly coloured interior also contributed to the diner-like atmosphere, though the slightly loud music was a bit much for me that evening.All in all, would come again for diner breakfast at night!
Pretty amazed by the American food served here! Free flow of Heinz sauces and maple syrup.Smashed Burger 10/10Chicken & Waffle 10/10Omelette & Hash 6/10Cold Cocoa 4/10Pink lemonade 9/10Avoid peak hours as there would be a Queue outside!
I’ve been traveling a while and wanted a American style breakfast so I came here the best omelettes that I’ve had in a long time good enough where I came back the second day
Great experience, lucky to be seated within 5 minutes.Generous portion.Loved the pancakes, I would eat more if I had the capacity for that.Will definitely be back to try more items.Really looking forward to the steak and eggs 🥹
Very overrated and overhype. Food taste very basic, like the food I make at home even though I cant even cook.
came in earlier to skip the queue! order the star platter and the chicken waffle, mac&cheese and unexpected the food to arrive very fast. honestly the food was just okay, chicken could be more crispier as what i've expect and the macaroni turns out to be so soft that i can't finish. On the other hand, i like the ambiance and vibes here, as location aren't far with the mrt exit F serangoon. excellent service by the service crew
Just had the pancakesNot fluffy n insufficient blueberry n whip creamServer rejuected my request for additional whip cream n blueberryExtremely disappointed
Love the American vibes! Staffs are friendly and smiley! My daughter accidentally spilled her drink all over the table. 1 of their staff was really sweet and nice to gave her a new cup of drink! Thank you for the awesome service!
Very disappointed I am not allowed to add greens ($1.50) to Weiner & Hash when it's already an option for All Star Plate.And please include salads for sides. 🙏🏻I look forward to a new menu!
Came on a Friday evening for dinner and there was a long queue. Was informed that it would be a 1 hour wait. Went to Nex and the diner called when it was almost ready to seat us around an hour laterThe food was great! In pictures: Loaded spuds (got the tatertots option). Farmers plate (has scrambled eggs, potato chunks, garlic bread, smoked salmon, sausage, minced beef) and a rosti (with sausage and egg). All three items were delicious, portions were generous and worth for the price!Got the chocolate milkshake with donut. Not very thick and the chocolate flavour was mild.Will come back again!
Reached there at 747am on a Saturday morning, it served as a good air con break after walking 4km. The place was quiet except for a family eating at a booth at the front next to the counter. 3 other booth tables were full of left overs of whole waffles, drinks and stuff. We took a table with chairs rather than our usual booth taking as all the ones facing each other were filled with trash and the rest were tiny one sided booths.Went to the counter ordered a omelette and added with smoked salmon, $19.66 (inclusive of 10% service charge, and 9% GST). There were at least 5 staff around, but they would rather sit around the kitchen area to chat than clear the tables in the dining area. At about 8am the food came, looks good, taste good, but they didn't serve the cutlery so we had to go to another table to take.Then I went to toilet as we still have a distance to go. I am normally fast, but this time I took a minute to find the lock even though there was a sign. Toilet was clean, just... if you can't bend or squat, don't use, because you can't lock the door. There was also no place to put my phone, so as a female, I stuffed it into..... After the visit to the toilet, we proceeded to leave. The 3 booth tables are still full with trash. Customers had increased by another 2 tables. A note to F&B staff, if a diner like me sees leftovers, I know that the item is not worth ordering. If I was a staff there, I would have cleared it even at the point of the customer leaving.Can come again. But really not sure why we are paying for the service. Except by ... law.
This place serves amazing food, has great service and overall a great place for both couples and friends to gather for a meal.
Good place to have a date. Food is great, so much that it will take time to finish. And time is required for a nice date. So... Best combination!
We woke up at about 6+am and wanted a good breakfast and so here we are for the first time. Joji’s Diner is open 24 hrs and when we reached at about 6.30am, we were the only ones there.Ordered 4 All Star Plate, with my two boys adding on a grilled chicken each. The serving, without the grilled chicken was already very generous with baked beans, bacon strips, scrambled eggs, a sausage, baked potato chunks and toast. The food was served hot as they prepare on order. The Interior deco has vibes of an American cafe and tables are pretty well spaced apart, definitely no exam hall feel lol Overall, the cafe was clean and cosy.The service crew were friendly and efficient. It was a lovely breakfast and we felt that it was worth the price as very few cafes are open at that hour and the serving size was also generous.Personally, I would go again for an early morning breakfast together with my family😊
Great tasting food, good and friendly service from staff, and a pleasant atmosphere
Horrible food chicken was burnt wife ate and we were disappointed we order hot tea but we got cold iced tea did not want to make a fuss as we were too tired. Food was over greasy
Lovely find in the midst of our bustling city. Very American style restaurant. Food is good. Just that it is quite pricey. But is a nice getaway for weekends.
Had the chicken and waffles + loaded fries, pretty average, not bad but not amazing. Wait time is about 30mins on a Monday evening. Decor is nice - Instagram worthy, staff are friendly, food is mid.
Dinner times can get really long waiting times. But the food is worth the wait. Their weiner and hash is my favorite item on the menu so far. I've been back there multiple times and after trying the other items, weiner and hash is still the undefeated champion. Their snacks are also pretty good like the Cajun squid fritters
Budget friendly American-style dining restaurant. The deco and design is special and unique.It’s almost always fully packed with customers, so the tendency of being arranged to sit on the aisle by placing an extra chair along the walk way is high. Even if I tried to move as close as possible to the table, anyone passing behind me will still bumped into the back of my chair affecting my dining comfort.Apart from that, food is good and affordable. Ambience is a plus point.
staff gives conflicting details. Booked table for 2 but pair us with 2 strangers on a 4 seater. Very unprofessional. when a staff told us another set of seats are empty and ready for us to move, another staff told me we cant move as its for 4 pax, giving conflicting details saying. so unprofessional. not even an apology
Nested among the shophouses in a old stretch along Upper Serangoon Road, somehow fittingly matches its retro vibe, especially the menu which must have seen better days.Had their Smash Burger which featured prominently in the menu yet it's probably not their best dish. It wasn't a bad burger and the two patties were authentically smashed thin but it wasn't charred enough and given its over greasiness, it felt as though there's only one thick patty instead of two thin slices sandwiched in between the buns. It was so overwhelmingly jelak half way through the burger that I appreciated the whole piece of pickle given as it really helps toning down the nausea.
Ordered:- Farmer’s Plate for $22- Chicken Waffles for $13.8Restaurant almost filled when we reach at 12pm on a weekday. This place has the charm of an old-school American fast food restaurant.The food is delicious and reasonably priced. The best part? It's open 24 hours. Really enjoyed my meal and the overall experience!
The ambiance of the place is charming, reminiscent of the 1960s era just like Denny Family Restaurant and Magnolia Snack Bar. The food selection is decent, but it would be nice to have more options available, particularly at prices that are senior-friendly.
I certainly had a great time here. Great food, great service.Chicken waffles was excellent. Batter and marination of the chicken cutlet was tasty, crunchy and juicy.Blueberry pancake was enjoyable. Lava cake was punched with intense chocolaty flavour and lastly, the loaded fries was sinful yet addictive.Service staff was attentive and friendly. Very accommodating and pleasant towards families. I’ll be back again soon to try other dishes. Kudos to everyone there
Great American old school vibe.Food overall was OK-ish, grilled chicken was dry. Smash beef burger not bad, watermelon orange drink nice. Price decent.Probably won't be back so soon.
I had the Pancakes with lamb sausages, roasted potatoes and eggs. Eggs were well done. Food was good. Portion was big for the price paid. Place is very busy like how a diner should be. Very new York diner themed vibes, including the toilets. However the only turn off is the 1 hour eating time, as food takes 10-15 mins to arrive and you only have 45 mins to eat and chat. Recommended only if you going solo or with 1 other friend. Not recommended for a big group. Service was good and polite.
Visited on an early quiet Saturday morning. Food and ambience are reminiscent of diners in small sleepy towns in US. If you go there expecting a sanitized version of an American diner, you will be disappointed. I enjoyed my meal here. Recommended to share portions. Very filling for breakfast. 🙂
Summary: It was average experience and taste.Food was pretty basic in taste, and the presentation was normal as well.Pricing vs portion: it is on the mid-high side.Service: Counter was polite.Concept was American and good idea, but it does not provide the vibe and food experience.
ordered the All Star Plate and it arrived with a rather obvious long curly strand of hair on the scrambled eggs, baked beans and potatoes. They took it back without any explanation or apology and came back 5mins later with a new plate. Im not sure if they remade or just removed the hair but given the service, i didnt bother trying to ask for further action…
Went a few times but always have to queue so give up waiting. 1st time managed to get a seat within 30 mins. crowded, should be due to its open of 24 Hours & not too many seats space. Went close to 9pm but still have to wait about 20-30 mins. Food too salty, not to my liking. Waffles is not the crispy type. Floor quite dirty. Toilet quite dirty too. See a cockroach crawling on the floor next to our table.
We went there for dinner and approached the waiter to join the queue to be seated.The decoration was in line with the American diner theme, but the restaurant was quite small and the ambience was rather noisy. The air conditioner was too strong and a few other diners complained about the temperature. Do bring a jacket if you plan to come here.Food-wise, the chicken waffles was nice. Duck confit was average.
I tried the $13.90 chicken & waffle at this classic American diner-themed restaurant. The waffle was fluffy inside, but the chicken, although crispy, was somewhat dry. The portion size was fair for the price, but getting seats during lunch can be challenging due to crowds. Moreover, the restaurant has a noticeable smokey and oily smell that lingers and may cling to your clothes after your meal.
Everything is great and reminiscent of American diners.My only qualm is it's small space and since it's open 24/7 it might look very aged.
Came here looking for dessert. Will want to try their mains next! Heard their scrambled eggs are 👍🏻 Interior reminds me a lot of Billy Bombers, nostalgia! 🙂
Went for supper and noted pretty crowded but worth the wait for short whileThe portion is huge worth the money too
To be hornest, the food was decent. But they really need to work on the service experience. The ordering was an unpresent experience. Noted that there are 1 hours dine in limit. I barely finish my plate in less than 30mins and the server are already asking if they can clear up and giving the kind of stare like I should go already. The whoke experience was very unwelcoming.
The price is reasonable with their food portion given on some items. But overall, it is delicious 😋Staff there was friendly, and the food served was kinda quick as well.Just that the waiting time for the Q can be quite long as the seatings are quite limited.Especially if coming with big groups, the waiting time can be even longer .But still worth trying them out if you haven't. 😌
The cashier (young dude wearing glasses) should be let go due to poor service and a terrible attitude. When asked if I could order pancakes as a side dish, the cashier could only manage a curt ‘no’ response. Towards the end, he couldn't even tell me the bill amount. Instead, he lazily pointed to the screen and gave a death stare to inform me. The entire order process took less than a minute, yet he had the nerve to be so impatient, as if he was trying to drive me away.
24hr Good hangout place for youngster american food. Difficult to get parking. Love the strawberry puree drink n minty cucumber drink.
food’s mid at best but what’s worse is the queue system, seems like only way to get a seat is to get a queue number upon your arrival only to be told it takes 45mins to get seated, what am I gonna do at a residential road junction for 45 mins in the hot sun bro?
The staff were quick to give us a table after getting into the que. Food were all presented very well, and the taste was good enough to savour for the rest of the day. However the food was a bit oily than normal, but other than that the restaurant definitely has good vibes.
Gives off retro vibes, similar to watching a movie. space is constricted and service is quite slow as place was crowded. Do have to wait for quite a while in order to get a seat but attitudes of service staff was friendly and welcoming!! 🔥 The portion of the food are also quite generous‼️
The only thing good here is the food. Place is cramped, cold, air curtains cannot off. Was freezing when I was having my dinner. The coke was bad as it was stale (lao hong).
Place felt like those diners you alway see in movies, food was amazing and the servers were so polite. Atmosphere felt retro, with comic covers of old comic decorating the walls.
Swing by @jojisdiner whenever you want—they’re rocking 24/7! This place is buzzing with young vibes, and the decor totally channels Billy Bombers #iykyk.You’ve got to try the Morning Wood on the menu. Juicy portobello… so yum.They’re pet-friendly too! Spotted a few times of pet lovers hanging out with their dogs at the alfresco seating.Folllw reviewikr on Instagram and Facebook for more reviews.
There can be better instructions outside on whether free seating or wait to be seated. Food is nice, but service is very bad, which looks like it is due to shortage of manpower. Please put a sign outside telling customers whether is it free seating or someone will attend to them
Located just beside the road and the environment looks messy.The food is average and the service is not warm.
Food is great, came fast and worth the money.Service was superb and staff were really friendly and helpful.
Place is quite small so it's always full. Long queue and therefore expect to wait long before u can get a table, especially during peak hours.Foodwise, it's mainly breakfast on the menu 24/7. Food is ok but ambience is nice if you're into American diner style decor.
So - so food. But good supper place late at night. Food was overdosed with sauces. Good for guys who love big portions but not exactly exquisite. But the price jusifties so it's fine. Place feels abit grimy could do with more bright lights, frequent clean up.
went for an early breakfast around 5am.compared to the last round the food tasted better.perhaps timings with last people are better.
Food was decent but lack flavour and overall abit too greasy. Understandably it is providing Singaporeans a glimpse of the American dinner style, thus ambiance and service is top notch. But overall a decent "try once" type of restaurant.
Great food, high quality ingredients, cool vibe. Felt like a US diner. Slightly odd music. We'll be back!
Place is small...food is so so. Price of food is decent. Long waiting time to dine inside because the place is small is crazy. Staff some are ok and some are not. I've asked the cashier for dessert recommendation doesn't even know or I dunno if she understood my question but I've repeated and rephrased it still she cannot answer. overall it's not that bad but just need more improvements
This is a place you go for atmosphere. Food is alright. Standard western diner style food. Comfort food hard to complain. Decent price.Gets really crowded with long Q at night. Come early if just want to try it out once.
🥞 Food: Is just as you expect! Greasy, savoury, sweet… don’t come here if you’re on a diet lol⏰ Crowd: We visited at 9pm on a Monday night and had to wait about 30min to be seated🚗 Parking: One of the other reviewers here helpfully recommended the HDB carpark at Blk 403. Great suggestion as roadside parking outside the cafe is limited
Great food, friendly staffs :). Slightly louder music and colder temperature would have been greater.
Very American diner vibe (like what we see in the movies)They're quite strict on the 1hr dining time. Can consider coming during the off peak hours.The portion is big for its price.I waited 1hr, though it's nice that they give a heads up
Never bothered checking the order and whether or not they missed out on any items in said order. Damn cockup. Lazy say lazy. Dont work in food industry if y'all gonna be bochup like this. _|_
This is my 4th visit but my 1st time finally getting a table. This place only has limited tables and their biggest table only cater to 4 or 5 if u can squeeze. Always with long queue and long waiting time as they do not accept reservations at all even for non peak. This time, I called up at 12 noon to check for availability, I was told many empty tables but full with 2 groups waiting ahead of me when I reached 45 mins later. We chose to wait since we have a little time extra today.U have to place order at the counter and pay but they serve the food to your table.Food was average and chicken a little over fried but flavourful. Drinks we ordered Mocha and iced chocolate both a little diluted even when it's first served, not worth the price.Good thing about the menu you are able to choose the different dishes for your own platter.Limited parking too and they do not accept reservations, only walk-ins. Small restaurant cramp though nice deco. Not worth the time, imo.
The restaurant is pretty small, so be prepared to wait for an hour or more during peak hours. Once seated, the food arrived in about 20 minutes. The dishes are tasty and delicious (4 stars), and the service is average, nothing special (3 stars), especially considering the affordable prices. We love the atmosphere; it feels like a cozy American rest and relax spot along a country roadside (4 stars). We will be back again to try other dishes.
The server that sat us down was showing attitude when we kindly asked if we could change to a larger table. Throughout the entire meal, I could see him staring over occasionally. Absolutely poor service by that tall server without spectacles.
Service :The service could have been better with more information given on how to reserve a spot or book in advance. There were confusion between the counter crew and waiter.(I personally feel that the restaurant do not deserve service charge because there was no service rendered at all)Food & Drinks :Fresh OJ, freshly squeezed orange juice was refreshing. ⭐⭐⭐⭐All Star Plate, food was served cold and presentation was not good. ⭐Chicken & Waffle, a fan of good old classic chicken and waffles; delicious and crispy both on the waffles and chicken. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐Atmosphere :Would have been a whole lot better with a structured system. Definitely worth the hype for younger generation who have never experienced dining in an all American restaurant.Overall : 3/5
Dont know what the hype is all about, food was cold when served, presentation was lacklustred with zero effort on the plating( almost looked so unappetizing) and service was mediocre..
Overrated.Food is ok. Too crowded on a Sunday evening. Service is slow.
I find the food delicious and the service is a bit slow but it is still good
Portion is pretty big, food is pretty yummy and greasy but not in the way that’ll make you hate yourself, place is grimey in the way you’d expect a diner to be. service can be slow because it’s pretty crowded. recommend the waffle set (add sausage), instead of the chicken & waffles which were pretty dry
Nice ambient and food was good. Was lively with the the music. Service was good, staff never fails to smile. Worth the money, had dinner with my 3 children and paid abt $80 only!
Food was delicious and prompt.Portions are huge.We had the sausage and mash plate and the flapjacks.The cucumber mint cooler was refreshing and delicious. Likewise the mixed berry tea, though it was rather light.The service staff were a little standoffish we felt. When we wanted to order the chicken and waffles we were told that it would take 50 minutes.However a few diners after us were being served that shortly after.But we would still return to sample other things on the menu. Lovely interior as well.Come early to get a seat!
Bought the most basic dish $12.90. Potatos were tasty but too salty for my palette but guess it’s fine for the general customer, hope eggs was more, 2 lamb sausage which was tasty but abit tough. Pancakes was surprising thick and the butter was milked!!!#travelwithkenkish
Horrible service. Went at 1:45pm on Sunday. Went to sit at empty table as waited 5 mins at door and no one attended. Upon seated, Staff then came to our table to informed that only reservation as table are all fully taken. But there's 2 empty tables and no one standing and waiting there. Staff say have to wait for 30 -40 mins.. but there's nothing to walk around n yet empty table there still have to wait 30-40mins. Never go there again. Service sucks..
Long overdue visit to this joint.I had the chicken and waffle while my wife had the sausage, eggs and pancakes.Chicken was deep fried and crunchy with a flavourful taste of every bite.The waffle was good too with cinnamon flavor to the whole experience.The sausage was really good complimented by the soft tender eggs. The pancakes were delicious too.Finally we had the Lava cake which was very chocolaty.Finally the drinks we had also complimented our food tastefully. Overall good experience.One qualm was the staff attention to details.We specifically told them to serve the starters, which was the flame grilled chicken, but that came last with no apologies or updates untill we had to ask for it several times.They had ample staff to manage the place, but I don't think there was a manager to lead the team. Maybe I missed it. But it did affect the overall experience.
Food is good. But we went on a Saturday night. Super long queue. My younger daughter insisted to queue for the food though I offered to go somewhere else. We waited for 1hr. I have never waited for restaurant more than 30mins. Fortunately, the food was served rather fast. I was hungry but the chicken waffle is good. Something I would go back for. Kids love the milkshake and the waffle. The restaurant was super packed and we finished the food in 30 mins as I cannot stand the noise from the table next to us. If we are going back, I would pick a weekday instead of weekend.
Saw this restaurant recommended online and decided to try it out.Tried the waffle and chicken, sausage with portobello mushroom, Mac and Cheese, Cucumber cooler and strawberry cooler.I thought that the food tasted just alright. It’s definitely not inedible, but also not one that excites you that makes you die die must come back.For example, fried chicken was decent, but the waffle was a little thick and dry, making it hard to go through. Thanks to the free flow maple syrup though, it certainly helped the dish.For the Mac and Cheese, I find that the cheese was a little ‘muted’? Doesn’t have that kind of cheesiness and creaminess that after you bite through it, you go like wow. The M&C was also not seasoned well, hence, prepare to grind some salt and pepper!The drinks were also, in my opinion, not that good. Maybe because I expected it to be slightly sweet. It need not be a cut leg sweet, but at least some sweetness. It was totally devoid of any sweetness at all, making it a hard swallow.Price wise, spent about $60ish for 2 pax? I mean, it’s not too badly priced, quite reasonable.But yes, had the food been more tasty, I’ll more willingly recommend this place, otherwise, it’s quite a tough call 😅
Five stars for good service . Very good service attitude tall indian staff . Forgot to ask her name.
Nice food if u r those western Bfast lovers.Extremely nice decor n vibes as well.Damn long since i came n happy to be back.Food is just as good and now its even 24 hours. Wow i wonder hows the crowd at night thou.Will pop by again to visit
American diner vibes, good food and very reasonably priced. Small space tho, so book a table or cater waiting time
Finally went to joji after it had opened for a few years. The decor is nice, the food names are creative, service is fast. Do expect to queue during peak meal hours. There is a 1 hour time limit during this period and the staff will check the receipt to kinda remind you. Which I find off putting as we are in the middle of a meal and it is the kitchen which is late.Food wise the taste are so so but it's very fulling. Didn't have any more space to squeeze in dessert. Will go back again just to try the dessert. But I did have The strawberry milkshake and is great.
Buy more waffle makers please. I’m sure you can afford it. Getting my order of waffles when everyone else at my table is done eating is not fun
The food is wonderful, reminiscent of a typical mom and pop diner in the Bronx 😂 (I miss the USA). Their rosti or hash is slightly less crispy than I would have preferred. The duck confit is great and not gamey in taste. The highlight would definitely be the chicken and waffles, where the aroma from the vanilla waffles is so appetizing, and the chicken is fried marvelously.
Our go-to order is Omelette & Hash, Duck Mash and Earl Gray Iced Tea. The omelette is one of the best I have had in Singapore, seasoned just right.
Food is good and awesome for the price. Calamari portion size is huge!! But I will not travel all the way to the east just for the food unless friends requested.
Joji claims orange juice to be freshly squeezed but it is not the case. Weiner hash is delicious though, just missing real orange juice.
Please be expected to wait for table as this place has limited space. Food is good though but the dining experience can be better improved.
Finally tried this diner after seeing TikTok videos & friends posting on their Instagram Stories.I went on a Friday night, by the time i reached, it was Saturday midnight and there was a queue. I had to wait for about 35mins. The staff took down our contact information and called us when the table was ready.You order at the main counter and make payment first, despite this, you are still being charged 10% service charge 👎🏻I got the All Stars Plate ($13.50++) with French Toast and a Ruby Lemonade ($5.90++), the portion is actually pretty good and is quite filling.The staffs were friendly which is a big plus because i feel that service in Singapore can really be a hit or miss.Overall, you come here for the vibes & experience. It’s a great place to come here and talk about life with your friends or significant other.(Parking - There is street parking available (parallel parking) on the same street, if all lots are taken up, there is a nearby HDB)
Food is super nice as supper after work and at night is not that crowded too. Good place to visit and staff quite friendly. If you visit here, try their chicken & waffle. You will like it if you like savoury food.
was told there was some system error only when we entered and sat and went to order. Told us it would be down for 30 minutes and can’t order food till then. Waited 35 minutes and heard them tell a new patron that they would have to wait another 30 minutes. At least be straight up about the timing. Waste of my time. Staff was also pretty indifferent and unapologetic.
Came slightly before lunch crowd, managed to get seated immediately, shortly after there's a line waiting. Table management doesn't seem to be very efficient.Food wise is good, abit greasy to my liking. But I guess that's what diner's food are..Service almost non existant, not sure why I'm paying for service fee. Guy with the explosive hair manning the cashier, rude and nonchalant attitude, tapping on his machine while taking orders and had to repeat myself a few times to get my order across, clearly distracted. Requested for napkins and was told (rudely) to take it myself. Must have Came in at the wrong time as everyone is just so grumpy and tired, long shift for everyone?Over 2/5 , worth the try for the food, but be prepared for the lacking in service standard
Fun diner, limited menu but good all-day breakfast and drinks. Good friendly service.
good oldies feel especially those who want billy bomber feel again. The place though small and packed, the atmosphere is energised with continuous crowd. Packing can be an issue and do go early to have a table.
Went here for a group brunch - the place is usually quite crowded in the day and we waited about 45 mins for 7 of us.Their dishes have funny tongue in cheek names and the place plays 2000s music which is fun !I had Morning Wood , which is basically 2 bratwurst sausages with mash and veggies and toast. Love how they use sourdough toast instead of normal white bread toast, adds a different taste and texture to garlic bread. My friends had the chicken and waffles, would have to say it was worth $13-14 dollars for the portion size. The sausages were very hearty and tasty, and every bite was well balanced.Yes portion sizes here are real big, so come in a group if you’d like to try more items.Their buttermilk flapjacks are delicious too when hot ! Loaded spuds are great too.Drinks wise the strawberry lemonade is okay and the milkshakes are alright not mind blowing.This place is not for you if you like healthy food because everything is unhealthily delicious !!! Bring a friend if you are a small eater because finishing one main by yourself can be quite the challenge. ✨Update:Have ordered grabfood delivery from them and the portions are still consistent and very large! Staff put in chilli and tomato ketchup without asking and it did not leak, only worry is that the lid might be too loose and it is easy for the lid to come undone if not hung on the door gate well.
literally worst meal ever. everything was bad.waffles bad. coffee bad. rosti bad. mac and cheese bad.bad bad bad
Horrible Service here, me and my friend came for dinner, we were given the normal table but afterwards we requested to the waiter that we wanted booth seat. Another waiter gave us the seat but afterwards we are asked to leave our booth by the first waiter in an extremely rude manner and go to our previous seat despite our food already served. He was very unapologetic and even asked us to queue again if we want the booth seat. When I expressed my unhappiness the waiter reluctantly walked away. He said we should have asked him permission to move our place which is absolutely ridiculous. The food here is good but this kind of service is intolerable.
This is an experience in itself. Brought my American friends here before and they say it’s not really an American diner…but we are none the wiser!Decor is so nostalgic and it’s a whole vibe.The food though, nice!! Have tried their chicken waffles before and was great.Their steak and fries though woohoooo this was on another level. Steak was juicy and tender, and well seasoned. Wasn’t dry and gross for a fast concept diner.Their shakes also are vein clogging good.Come just to experience this, but suggestion is to come early because the queues get insanely long.
Mac'n'cheese + garlic bread was great! We loved the big bang, muddy lava and pink lemonade too.Blueberry pancake was too sour for our liking.
Was there on 6th April 2024, Saturday at 1am. The girl at the counter taking order was rude and condescending. Ordered waffles and strawberry milkshake, it was absolute trash. The worst quality of food you can get. Skip this trash place.
👎 waiting time can range between 1-2 hours towards midnight👍 staff are friendly still despite large customer traffic👍 if u sat inside the diner, it has that classic American diner feel & is cold inside to beat the heat we are currently experiencing in SGMeal 1: Steak & Eggs ⭐️~ $24The whole meal was super dry. At least they go the medium rare part correctMeal 2: All Star Platter ⭐️⭐️⭐️ ~$15.90Potato wedges & scrambled eggs were decentMushroom could use seasoning and maybe a change to portobello. Pancakes were overcooked and tasted super dry. Baked beans & sausage were standard.Drinks: Iced Mocha & Iced LatteToo diluted. Both tasted exactly the same.Overall verdict:Not worth the hype nor the wait. Would definitely not be going back to try other things.Overall damage: ~$60
Diner in 80s retro theme. The deco, tables and chairs remind you of a 80s american style diner. Food was pretty good. Ordered the all star plate (rem to top up for potato hash if u like rosti), blueberry waffles and earle grey ice tea. Prices was reasonable and best of all, they are open 24hrs.
Visited this place on a Saturday morning at around 0600hrs, restaurant was pretty empty.Ordered the Farmers Plate and Morning Wood. Was really surprised at the serving size and it was absolutely delicious! Really tasted like the authentic American breakfast!!Will definitely patronise again 👍
I’m so disappointed that we got cat fished kind of feeling. Fell for ads and social media exposure but nothing was as said.Bad queuing system, taking orders were messy, food menu was majority on Pork and Beef, I could count the chicken was under 3 or lesser in the menu. The worst part was the blueberry pancakes, I can’t even imagine how they thought it was a good idea making it look such.
Really great American diner. Burger was fantastic. Everything really tasted great. I list service lower as you order from counter m but was easy.
What I liked about this place was the pricing and the taste of the food. Had the pancake and sausage. Pancakes had a tinge of cinnamon and is quite sweet by itself.The fried squid was good but I note that sometimes it can get over fried. Sauce was yummy though.
Food was soso for the price. Portions are bigger than average, but small considering the price. I think I went there with too high expectations because my friends kept wanting to go there. Service was good, great atmosphere. Crowded most of the time so do remember to ask for a queue number from them when you enter
Amazing music, delicious food and quick service. Loved the nostalgic American diner feels.
My go to supper place, I love their fried chicken and waffles, all star plate, blueberries pancakes and amazing drinks!
Authentic American breakfast with chili sauce, something you can’t get in US. Food is good and the atmosphere really feels American.
Very interesting concept: old style American diner. Loved the concept. The food was also really delicious! The buttermilk pancakes and bratwurst is a must-try!
Came for supper to Joji’s at 1am. No queue. Ordered the Plain pancakes, Cajun Squid fritters and Americano.The Cajun squid fritters was amazing. The seasoning was spicy and salty and paired very well with Cajun Mayo provided on the side. Add a squeeze of lemon for the extra zest, you won’t regret!The plain pancake had cinnamon in it, and that had a nice touch of flavour that went well with the dollop of Butter and maple syrup.
Good food, ambiance is great, service is ok not bad nor great. No cash transaction.
Came on a weekday 6pm and the crowd is forming. Make sure to let the staff acknowledge you before moving away as the queue can be messy at times. As they is no proper place to stand around the premises. Luckily the staff have a good memory who is next in the queue.Waffle & chicken and serving is huge. The waffle is crispy and fluffy which blended well with the chicken thighs meat and a sunny side up. Maple syrup is provided on the table.Mac & Cheese is rich in cheese and creamy that comes with 2 roasted bread.Bird burger is recommended too. The chicken is cooked to perfection and goes very well with the bun.Cajun Squid Fritters is delicious.Strawberry paddle pop and big bang are really sinful. It reminds of me Billy Bombers that was years back then.Will come back again for other dishes.A total $79 is well spent.Parking is easy as it’s just along the road side.
Rude staff managing the cashier station on 26/03 820pm.A tall and slim dude with puffy hair, looks younger than 20.Proceeds to raise his voice at me the second time to enquire about my table number when taking order. Place was loud and i had trouble reacting to his first time asking it.Throughout the order taking process, gave a nonchalant attitude and continuously swings and flaps a table towel while leaning against the cashier.0/10 staff.
Ordered Scrambled cheese egg, Sausage, Shredded potato. I was looking for dessert session not much. The waiting is very long 45mins to 1 hour.
Called them 9times over 2 days and no answer and when finally they pick up the lady on the phone was damm rude really wan to come down and slap her face. I said i wanna make reservation she said only pre table available so i asked her whats that and she just hung up on me. Called back and ask her why she hung up while i was talking to her she simply said YAA… no point food nice if got this type of cb staff
A hidden gem in Serangoon estate.We headed to the restaurant to try the food during lunch time. The duck confit is delicious and very tender.Great food and cozy ambience!I will definitely check out the dessert menu.And staffs are friendly.
One of my favourite places for brunch and plus this place never let me down whenever I brought a new friend over, they loved it instantly.
The atmosphere and food were great. Just the service that was lacking very badly. Some of the staff were rude, and the queueing system was very messy.
service is good. ate on sunday night. food overall was delicious, potato cubes lesser flavour than before
Really enjoyed the food and vibes here. Waffles were excellent. The omelettes were sandwiched with cheese so that really added layers to the flavour and texture. The freshly squeezed orange juice could be better though.
I had a very bad experience with joji’s diner staff they are extremely rude and bad. Please put a reservation sign outside. If you not only accepting walk in customers. When asking staff questions very bad in communicating with customers. Please do something about it.:(
Good authentic American Diner. The only thing missing is the apron clad waitress with a cigarette on her lips 🙂
Food was good and portions were big. Sides did not seem very fresh though as the potatos seemed soggy. The place was nicely decorated and had the standard American feel although a little unhygienic as there were flies, utensils were greasy and there was a small hole in the wall loosly covered by a poster beside the seat. We went in before dinner rush (~7pm) if not be prepared to queue for seats
Food was flavourful and tasty, but no idea why the bill includes service charge. We had to order the food ourselves at the counter. The utensils and sauces are on the table self service. So why charge your customers service charge?This just doesn't make any sense
Good food at a reasonable price, good atmosphere with the American diner vibes, but prepare for a long queue especially during dinner or lunch time!
Very good American diner food, for the price point and generous portion size. Waffles had crispy exterior with soft interior; scrambled eggs so light and fluffy. Better to come with a group to try different items! Except that seating is limited, do avoid peak hours on Fri-Sun.
Quite a small place. Need to queue if you are coming during peak hours. Aircon & fan is on high so it’s quite cold. Get a shawl if your lady is afraid of cold. Cos the cold air keeps blasting. Service is good however food is what you usually get at American diners.
Atmosphere has a very classic american feel, food is a little salty. They rickrolled us
3am foods taste extra delicious... Been here 2nd time didnt dissapoint... Love it
Come for breakfast in early morning. Food serve very fast and delicious. One of my fav diner place.
First time here and my gosh...subpar quality western food. Sad piece of bacon, atrocious slimy mushrooms 🤮the only redeeming item on the plate was the sausage and scrambled eggs. Milkshake was nasty. You're paying for the hype for a "retro" American diner that Singapore doesn't have at the moment.
Expect a long wait over peak period on a weekend. A few of their items were sold out already and it would be better if they could inform us beforehand on what was not unavailable. Overall, it was a delicious and filling meal!
The diner is quite small. They don't accept reservation. More suitable for breakfast or brunch.
The food was incredible, they served the best waffles I’ve ever had, the blueberry french toast was amazing and the chips seasoning was delicious. The atmosphere is really cute too, just don’t look too close in some places.
more of a place to hangout and chill, sandwich is not really what i expected? would have preferred if the beef chilli was on the side instead and chilli wasnt rlly good either. My friend had their chicken waffle tho, it was REALLY GOODD
Nice place for meals no matter is it lunch or dinner. Lovely staff, they were super even though it was a busy day.
food was great 👍 nice place to hang out at, but a tad bit pricey because there’s 10% sc. would go back, but not so soon because i am trying to look after my arteries too 🤘
Was there for desserts but kind of disappointed with the quality. Had a creamy banana shake (not wow), friends had blueberry waffles with ice cream (waffle texture dough heavy and clumpy, not sure why) and lava cake dish which is likely a mocrowaved piece. And halfway through, one part of the ceiling collapsed! Thank goodness nobody gets seriously hurt... 😓😓😓
Duck on mash is not really my likings, duck meat us very tender though. The rest of tge items in my photos are nice👍👍👍 expect a little waiting time during peak hours. I was there around 6:30pm and waited 30mins to get my seats. Limited parking, there’s a near by hdb that you can try and walk over.
I would say is for the hype good supper place but the portion are very big so beware if you eating only for 2 or 3 people can consider to share.Quite oily and sweet which is normal cause is American style food thus the size.I feel like everyone can hear everything so be careful of ur convo cause many might hear ur tea 👀🤭Is a small diner la so expect some waiting time for a seat and for girl with long hair tie ur hair cause ur hair confirm smelly from the food air or can bring some dry shampoo or perfume.Tables kinda dirty cause they don’t wipe they just keep the plates and etcCan give it a try is not bad la 🤭
We ordered English Platter with pancake & mac & cheese. The mac & cheese tasted like the 2in1 from NTUC, it was so dry but the toast that came along was so good i would pay for the toast but not for the mac & cheese. As for the English platter the scramble egg, potato, pancake was the nice, but the sausage was horrendous. I would not go back again. Customer service was pretty poor & no service recovery. When visiting during weekend there is a 1.5hrs dining period, they're very strict about it even if you're not done with your food they would keep coming back to ask you to leave
came at 2.06pm & queued & due to high volume i was told to wait outside of the diner for 25mins which i agreed, by an indian lady (did not get her name). waited outside for 24 minutes, noticed other patrions getting in before us with the same pax. when she came to me, mentioned that i was lying when i said that she told me to wait outside. then told me that she was supposed to get my name & my booking which she did not ask me for & asked me why she did not take my name. which is nonsense because its her job. and kept saying that i was wrong and was lying to her face. this is absurd!! i waited for so long with high expectations but lousy service. lousy service = lousy food = lousy experience.
omg can’t believe i saw 小甘 from CB dogs eating angmoh food!! joji diner damn power
Great that it's 24 hours. Portions are a little big for me. Will return for the value.
Love everything there so much that went 2 days consecutively. Price reasonable and ac very strong. Highly recommended. Best of all, it’s 24hrs.
Ordered their blueberry pancakes, the portion of sauce was quite generous, great atmosphere to hang out late night
Loved the place! Mac and cheese was so goood, super cheesy and creamyPancakes were awesome too
Avoid coming here during peak hours or over the weekends. All other time periods, barely filled.No real complaints of the food at their prices. Judging by the deep color tone of the fried chicken at the next table, deep fat fryer shortening needs to be more frequently changed. Beef lamb chilli carne was a little on the dry side.Speedy food service. Quick table turn around.
Ok, wasn't expecting the wait to be so long. We waited about 40mins for 2 pax, while we heard groups of 4 or more had to wait 1.5hrs!! Cray cray, but such is life on a weekend evening. Take note that you don't just wait around when you arrive, but make sure you get the waiter to get you a queue number, cos if not, you might end up standing there for another 15 mins without realizing everyone else already has a number.Menu was larger than what I see on Google reviews, but no more rosti, and slightly more pricey. Nonetheless, price point is still lower than most restaurants and the food tastes pretty good, just like what I imagine it to be. Every dish was quite solid 🤩Mac & cheese (nubbad, $7.90) - 4/5Loaded tater tots ($8.90) - 5/5, biggg portion with generous toppings & so much more worth than ordering the sides, cos curly fries alone is already $7?Chicken waffle ($13.90) - 5/5, big portion which we couldn't finish in the end since we were two pax eating 3 mains haha. The waffle is solid good!! I would love to have the waffle with ice cream!! Haven't eaten a GOOD waffle for the longest time (esp when ice cream shops waffles have been so disappointing lately). So was just pleasantly surprised that every dish that came one after another was just, as expected + GOOD (cos sometimes yknow, just one dish is good or that waffle is tasteless or portion small etc).Strawberry lemonade was also nubbad ($5.90)All in all, though I wouldn't wait 40 mins again next to a busy road & smelling all the exhaust, but the food was worth the wait & at decent prices! 😆
Love the squid fritters. Would love to go back and try other stuff but will have to consider again when I think I have to take the cutleries/syrup/sauces from the table beside me makes it awkward and uncomfortable. Shows they're either not willing to spend on cutleries/syrup/ sauces nor set up tables and separate them when it's crowded. Sorry but you don't understand that we generally don't like to have to share and like privacies.
Joji’s dessert is very good especially their blueberry pancake.Mostly all day breakfast menu and food is better than most cafes.Price is reasonable, dining area is quite cramp but cosy and have the 60's american cafe feel.Place is always busy after 6pm and expect some waiting time.Have a few tables outdoor but too stuffy and noisy.Now open 24 hours.8/10
food was ok but service was terrible... staff rolled eyes @ me and the cleanliness was horrible!!!! big cockroach appeared right next to me. lost my appetite after seeing it & left.
Queue management system is non-existent. Severely understaffed with no front of house. Diners are left unaware of when they are next or if they are even in the Q
I ordered the "morning wood" but the menu didn't mention that it would come with gravy or jam. The staff sat us down then seemed to have forgotten about us. We didn't know the procedure for ordering or even getting a menu. Maybe it was just too busy? The food was nice though despite the menu not being clear. Please update it! Thanks!
The chicken and waffles were good with the maple syrup! Unlike other reviews that the waffle was too dry, I found it fluffy and it was alright taken alone or with the syrup. The loaded fries (in our case, tater tots) were good.Place is a little cramped, but reminds me of a classic American diner. Reasonable price points considering the food quality and portions.
Food was very good. However the aircon was super cold especially at the tables near the door entrance
Pricing wise quite reasonable. Waffle was quite dense, not the fluffy type, can be a little hard to swallow pairing it with the fried chicken. Chilli dog was average though the curly fries was quite nice.Squid fritters was alright. Dint really like the idea of some young ones hogging the seats. Drinks was a bit too sweet for us.
staff are friendly, food was served reasonable fast as almost full house at midnight.Overall, I really like what I eat, see, and feel. it's remain me of the good old days at bugis Billy bombers
Joji is a diner one would’ve missed if one would drive too fast along upper Serangoon road. It’s a 50’s cafe open 24/7 Address: 534 Upper Serangoon Road. Pancakes, waffles, steak and eggs, milkshakes etc all in good size portions. It’s usually packed and reservations is when you arrive and put your name and hp# down. Best time to go is after 2am or 2pm 😃
One of a kind in singapore and 24 hours too! Loved the cinnamon waffles. Chicken tasted like kfc and not dry! Husband loved the strawberry milkshake, personally not a fan. But it's a good place, recommended! But yeah, super greasy floor. Dear staff, please mop more often?
Retro looking restaurant, slightly out of the way, but still walkable from Serangoon station.Food is acceptable for such price, and considered that this is a cafe, price is very reasonable.We like the Mac and Cheese here.. also had the Rosti and Waffle with Chicken cutlet.Will be back again to try out others.Service wise, nothing bad, it's just touch and go type.
Mostly youngsters dining in this restaurant. I didn’t find the food delicious. The waffle was a bit too dry. Must add the syrup. The grilled chicken chop and potato cubes were a bit too salty. Bacon was too dry but the scrambled egg was ok.The food portion was very generous.. 👍🏻 and the price was affordable too. 👍
