5 reviews for J J Boomers
I went to this place on a Sunday evening for dinner with my brother. They had a great comfort food type menu. Very much like eating at Grandma's House (and that's not cause the other patrons had a median age of 65).
Our waitress looked about 16... she was slow. She was nice and friendly... but just didn't seem to be 'there' She disappeared to smoke a cigarette between the time she brought us our drinks and brought us our appetizer. Now she was gone for 10 minutes at least... and the potato skins we had looked like they came pre-made from the freezer.
Same with the chicken tender basket i ordered too... I don't know why a comfort food type place would not make them fresh. A bit pricey for what I had, and I felt like I was eating stuff right out of a freezer. The tenders were good, kind of spicy, I did like that.
The saving grace of this place, which i'm sure is just due to my own lack of interest in it, but while eating my brother and I played some Keno... and I might now have a keno problem. You pick some numbers watch the screen, etc. It's kind of fun. I broke even so I can't complain too much.
Oh! My brother had the prime rib, it apparently was wicked good, but wicked fatty. Not caring much for red meat, I wouldn't know if that's a good or bad thing.
So yeah, try it out, you might find something you like, you might enjoy keno, you might just skip the meal all together and drink at their bar (my plan for next time)
Nice place. Karaoke, lottery, pool. Decent location. The karaoke dj started not letting anyone sing slower songs one night. Safe to say...place cleared out quick. Otherwise an ok place to chill out. Outdoor seating too.
Oh! I cant forget to mention they have live bands on Saturday night!

I've eaten here 6 or so times in the past couple weeks while installing their new touch screen point of sale system and haven't had a bad meal yet. The BLT & the Reuben were classically good. Straight to the point, excellent taste, could eat every day type good. I rarely eat the same thing twice but I've already made an exception here. The turkey club was awesome too, but not quite as stand up & yelp about it.
The only thing I don't like are the french fries. There's nothing wrong with them; I'm just particular about fries. For example, I'm the only person I know who liked it when Burger King changed their recipe.

I like the outside dining option. My main complaint is the service. Very SLOWWW. I went to the bar to get a drink because our waitress hadn't been by in some time. There were 2 bartenders, both doing nothing. One blond long hair bartender, walked around the bar, but refusing to make eye contact with customers, that way she wouldn't have to make a drink. I was trying to get her attention, then she walked to the end of the bar and was talking to her friend. Gave up and went back to my table to wait for the missing waitress. Went to the bar again later, had to wave my arms to flag down the other batender, t he blond was missing. I got the pork ribs, but it was smothered in sauce, and it was too spicy for me, I wish they would say spicy on the menu, not everyone is into HOT. Hubby got a burger, nothing to write home about, over done, not juicy at all.
