Blue Jay Restaurant

My husband has been coming to this establishment ever since he was a kid. This was my first time visiting and I was very impressed. The pancakes were very delicious and the prices were incredible. Also the waitress was very pleasant! We will be back!

The staff is the sweetest and the customers are nice and too themselves. Food is always fresh , hot and delicious! This remind me of breakfast at grandmas on the weekends. No gimmicks and high prices for quirky names and a sauce. All you need is salt , pepper and jelly/jam biscuits so fluffy don’t need no butter . I tore this food down and am full for $10 . Parking may be limited but when you see how full they are and homey the environment is you understand. They’ll be seeing more of me come next semester for sure !

I'm always happy to try a new place and especially privately owned. Overall the food was good and the portion size more than ample. The service was excellent the environment a throwback to my childhood which was comforting. My meal was straightforward breakfast fare. The eggs were cooked over medium perfectly, potatoes also good. However, I found the cuts on the onions added to give a stringing effect which simply may be a personal preference. The coating on the sausage links had an odd taste which made them difficult to eat. Sadly the cost of everything has made even the dinner more expensive than I would have expected. My dining guest had the Jacob special which she seemed to enjoy. I'd go back next time and maybe have lunch.

A Breakfast and Beyond Experience to Remember! ​From the moment I walked into Blue Jay Restaurant, I knew I was in for a treat. My breakfast was an absolute delight, starting with an omelet that was cooked to perfection. The ingredients were incredibly fresh and plentiful, making every bite a joy. Not to be outdone, the French toast was absolutely spectacular—a true standout that was fluffy, rich, and delicious. ​As if the breakfast wasn't enough, I decided to grab a bowl of their bean soup to go. When I tried it later, I was completely blown away. The soup was a "mouthful of taste," packed with savory flavor that was both comforting and unforgettable. ​I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a meal that is both exceptionally prepared and made with a passion for fresh, high-quality ingredients.

Great establishment with lots of meals and items to choose from breakfast,lunch, and dinner style meals. Friendly staff and accommodating.

Took my two younger sisters here for brunch, and we all loved it! The wait staff were super attentive and the absolute friendliest, even though they were quite busy. I loved the history decorating the place as well. The food was amazing. I got the Blue Jay breakfast, and the eggs were cooked perfectly, the bacon was that perfect marriage of crispy and chewy, and the home fries were delicuous as well. The omelet was also very flavorful. All portions were great for the price, and the coffee was good, too! Will definitely be coming back to explore more of the menu!

Classic American diner located in the heart of Northside. My date and I had breakfast. I had a humble omelette, she had the Blue Jay breakfast. Both were excellent. We had a good time! I'd recommend a visit, and wish I had known about this place back in my UC days.

This place serves absolute classic American breakfast food. All of it is so delicious - especially the gravy and the sausage
