5 stars!!!! They say don't judge a book by its cover, well don't judge a restaurant by its curb appeal. M&J may be in a strip mall, but WOW 🤩 amazing food!! I felt like my grandma was making me my favorite dinner. They are also the best Gluten-free options restaurant I have ever seen 🙏💕🙏 thank you for this 🙏💕🙏 Service was great, and prices are very reasonable 🏆💪🏆 strong work M&J team

Kurz bevor wir Richtung Sicamous starten, noch ein Frühstück in Oliver. Toller Service, sehr reichhaltig. Hat auch alles sehr gut geschmeckt. Klare Empfehlung.

Great spot for all day breakfast and lunch after 10 am. Small family business. These ladies work hard as it’s often a busy spot. Food is always amazing.

Why oh why do I return to this place, hoping for a better experience? Glutton for punishment. Every time I've been here, I've had issues. You will not be allowed to substitute for anything on the menu. (The breakfast sausage is terrible! I dont care what anyone else says. To me, they're gross.) So you have to deal with what you get. I like the big breakfast, but I don't want the sausage. I'd like to add more ham or bacon instead. Nope. The place wasn't very busy when we arrived, so I don't see why there would be an issue with a substitution. Zero customer relations. I ordered bacon and scrambled eggs, no sides. My date got eggs Benedict. At least the food was OK, but how can a cook screw up bacon and eggs?

I've seen the owner's snide remarks to anyone who posts a negative review instead of being kind... They lash out or insult the reviewer instead of taking any responsibility or trying to fix the issue. Very poor business practice.

The place is so outdated and old looking. The staff seemed tired and subpar (though one younger girl was superb), and there's one lady walking around trying to look important (I assume the owner) but not really contributing to anything other than chatting up the old folks who were obviously regulars.

I waited the entire meal to get a refill of water for my tea and gave up.

Just don't. Go to Smitty's in Osoyoos. At least there, you can get what you want.

This is our first time here as we are on holidays travelling through. We both ordered the 2 eggs which came with bacon and my husband had the ham. I selected the cube potatoes which were fresh and absolutely delicious. My husband had the hash browns again which were fresh potatoes and they also were delicious. I did find that the coffee was a bit weak. Also the noise level was quite high . Our server was very good and attentive.

Absolutely LOVED this place!!! Delicious food and huge portions.. the coffee was incredible! I came over from Vancouver to visit my dad and took him and his friend there for breakfast. I had the "big K breakfast" and was delighted to see what came... best breakfast I've had in ages. I still can't get over the coffee... it was truly delicious and roasted locally. The service was fabulous - fast and genuinely friendly. Before I left for Vancouver, I went back and had an omelet... I got the "Matt's favourite," and I can definitely see why... ham, onions, mushrooms, 4 eggs and cheese... incredible. It came with hashbrowns and toast. I washed it down again with that amazing coffee, which, quite frankly, was worth the drive on its own. I will be back in town and can't wait to try more on their menu. Thanks, guys!!

I came back... coffee hasn't changed.. It's still fabulous. This time, I had a Big K breakfast - 4 eggs, 4 sausages, 4 strips of bacon, a big, thick slice of ham, hashbrowns, and toast. I had to get the hashbrowns to go. I think it was one of the more expensive meals on the menu (at around $30), but it was delicious and well worth the money. I love coming by here when I'm in town!

This is a great place to eat breakfast. Very traditional diner style experience and the selection is really great. Not sure what the folks who complain are complaining about. They have decent coffee (check), they came by and refilled all the time, toast was toast, eggs were eggs and the pancakes were huge! It is the best home cooked breakfast in town.

One of my favourite haunts for a quick, affordable and somehow still phenomenal breakfast.

Although my visits are usually first thing in the morning, even the times I've been in the afternoon during peak hours I've felt right at home. The service strikes a great balance between professional and personal. I'm consistently impressed.
