Reviews of M&J's Family Restaurant (Restaurant)

Nathan Van Natter

Good food geat people

Rachel Holierhoek

Boasted chicken is fried dry and unseasoned. Fried fish is great, but they can keep the fries. Breakfast is good and cheap.

J Jaks

Was looking for good homemade fried chick and his place was recommended. OMG the best chicken a little under seasoned but jucy and nice and the onion rings!!!! Wow.

Aiden Wolfshadow (Wolfy)

The menu is reasonable. The burgers are great and the broasted chicken epic. Try it out Down home cooking.

For the first time I eat broasted chicken in Canada Delicious thing is great I invite everyone to visit this restaurant and their prices are good and suitable for all.

Tim O'Connor

Great food, great service, wonderfully nice people and not over priced. Was 5 stars but different people are now running this restaurant. I have not been there since the change in ownership... ...Been there. Not as good as before. Won't be going back. I will give 4 stars because they were very nice.

Brian G Murphy

Very friendly staff. Going there after church was a regular thing I did with 6 or 7 other people. I moved to London, I miss those lunches. In all the times we went there, our orders we always correct, and none of had any complaints.

Crystal Charette

Absolutely love the food and the owners. We unfortunately no longer live in Fort Erie but they still remember us when we come in. Truly amazing!

John Gilmour

Great food. Good prices. Friendly

Jarrod Jack

Decided to give this restaurant a shot as I am not in the area often, and saw the good reviews and just .. WOW. That is EASILY some of the best chicken I've have ever had. I got 3 Massive pieces of chicken, a roll, coleslaw and incredible potato's all for $10.45. You get what you pay for and then some! This restaurant is top quality. Makes Popeyes and KFC laughable.

Kount Kreepy

Great fried chicken! Better than KFC

mike B

Screwed up order waiting half hour after we already called in and then when we got home the order wasn't right! Tasted great but I must ask how is fish and chips with out French fries?

RickytreeandLand Shaubel

Best broasted chicken ever. Great people. Small town feel. Worth the drive.

Meheroo Jamshedji

Excellent service. Very friendly and thoughtful people. Obliging in every way. They don't hold back on anything. Will definitely stop by again if I am in Fort Erie.

Great food !!!! Always friendly and Owners so great to talk too. Fresh food and willing to accommodate any slight changes. Tried logan berry mixed with 7up there and so good! Thanks for the great food and service. Forever a customer!

Holly Sxox

Boyfriend said the m&j burger was excellent! And we both agree that they have probably the best hotdogs we've had in a long time! Also the poutine is awesome! Definitely my favorite poutine, in Fort Erie especially!

Kyle Reyes

Excellent broasted chicken. So delicious. Calling ahead for pickup is so convenient.

Rahul C

Some of the most Awesome broast chicken I've had. A wonderful gem in Fort Erie. The staff is helpful and the environment is homely and comfortable. There is ample seating. The food is delicious and the portion sizes are hearty

Darrell Lafave

Visited M&J's on a whim during our jaunt through Fort Erie. They did not disappoint. Had some of the best fried chicken, ever (and we've tried many). Also nice that you can walk in, sit down and strike up a conversation with the locals as well as the proprietors. Everyone makes you feel at home the moment you walk through their door. On my next visit to Fort Erie, I know EXACTLY where we're going for a meal.

Smarticle Co

Great chicken. Great staff. Great prices. What more could you want!

Rick Matthews

The quality of food has sunk. The new owners don’t seem to really know what they’re doing. Chicken went from awesome to poor. I just ordered an M&J burger with onion rings, one of my favourites there. Very few onion rings and the ones they did give me were extremely over cooked. The burger was bland. Please bring back the previous owners. They can’t keep serving subpar food for the same prices. I paid $9.95 for a bland burger and dried out onion rings

Amazing chicken

Epicman400

Absolutely lovey food and amazing community of people here, you will not regret going here ????????

First time having their broasted chicken it's definitely worth going back for, just served 25 guys with 100 pieces and it was more than enough fast friendly service ,very polite and also had carry out service ????????????

Anthony Guilmette

Been to M&J's many times over the past 4 decades & it is always pretty decent. The menu isn't very big, but that's ok. They have prided themselves on their broasted chicken for years. They are consistent & reliable. They also offer fountain Loganberry, a local beverage native to the area.

Jay Haywood

Not worth the price. Chicken is overpriced and the flavour was underwhelming. Not saying it's bad but when you'd rather have a fast food chain over a local business than you're doing something wrong with the seasoning. Mind you the chicken is cleaner and healthier but the breading had no real flavour. Worse than the chicken was the fries. We got a poutine and the fries tasted like mcain oven fries. Very dry inside and not tasty at all. In conclusion it's overpriced for what it is and that's why I won't be returning.

Georgios Stroumboulis

I may be biased but this is a landmark in Fort Erie for more than 50 years for its quality food and absolutely amazing Broasted Chicken. People come from all over the region and the states to eat here... a must try... family owned for 30+ years.

Chris Haun

For 50 plus years M&J's has been serving Niagara. There's a reason why they've stayed strong for so long, their food is exceptional. It's a family owned business that focuses on a great selection at good prices. The quality is fabulous. The service is fabulous. The place is clean. The outward appearance of the restaurant is extremely appealing. Plenty of safe parking. Easy access. Handicapped friendly. Central to Fort Erie.

Brian Fullarton

I have been visiting here off and on for over 30 years. Consistently decent food here and reasonable prices. Run by local couple who are very nice. My only issue with the place is the outside washroom that reminds me of old time gas station style. Surely having been here so many years they could have improved this if they cared about customer comfort.

Ray Nebollo

Good fast food, generous portions. Definitely worth a drive and and another visit! So far we have tried the Fried Chicken (Excellent), Seafood Platter (Excellent) and the Bacon Cheese Burger (Very Good), absolutely no regrets!

Herb Garlow

This place is amazing. The chicken is probably the best tasting chicken you will find anywhere. The potatos, gravy, coleslaw & buns we ordered as well, always keep us coming back for more. Best ever !!!

J Irwin

Fish and chip dinner absolutely amazing

Charlie Whitwell

It has been many years since I have been to MJ's restaurant. I had business in FT Erie and as I drove past M and JKsnch suddenly had a craving for Broasted Chicken. It was so good....just as I remembered! I will be travelling to Ft Erie more often and will definitely make a stop at M and J's.

Local Takeouts

I am so disappointed to write this review but have no choice. While I have loved MJ’s breakfasts, fried chicken and foods, i am beyond disappointed with the “submarines” my family were served. I get being more experienced with fried foods but this was completely unacceptable… we had ordered extra meat and cheese on subs and not only was that not provided but even less. One slice of cheese and one slice of meat when we paid for extra? Why were we even charged we might as well not ordered extra we were literally and seriously ripped off…. Not okay…. Most places i have gone such as subculture, subway, the barrel, central, will give at least 5 slices of meat and one to two of cheese. Maybe im a complainer but i can not believe i paid for extra to get one slice of each? Why did i even pay at all? Are you kidding? Never again….
