You can read the following Joji’s Diner reviews and will know that why we are a great American cuisine restaurant in Singapore.
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.
