A great community tavern/restaurant

Michael and John opened MJ'S less than a year ago and have been making a name for themselves in the Norfolk community as a great tavern and comfortable restaurant since then. From Grandparents to Grandchildren you'll find just about everyone here. Although gay owned this is truly a community place and usually a mixed crowd is present. They have a computerized "Juke Box" and a pool table, dining room and bar area. It is a non- smoking building and very comfortable. The food is Creative American with generous portions (try their soups they are delightful). Sunday Brunch is both breakfast and lunch/dinner foods at a reasonable price. Lunch and dinner are served Mon-Sat. Then after 9PM light fare is available and a more Tavern atmosphere is present but it is still comfortable and easy to hang out in. They are flexible with dietary restrictions if asked nicely (I can't eat wheat for example) and they have always welcomed me with my Service Dog without a fuss. I had my birthday party there recently and although we required multiple checks the wait staff handled this without any problem. They also handled our needs gracefully and left all of us feeling well cared for. You must give them a try. Tell them Remi the Service Dog sent you. :D

MJ's is more than well-suited to the demographic. When you compare the quality of food to the price, it's nearly impossible to beat. The atmosphere is laid-back; a touch loud for my taste, but...

Top notch, friendly staff and comfortable surroundings. I wavered about the stars because, being an older building, it's not handicap friendly. The food is tasty, the beer nice and cold and the service is excellent so, atmosphere-wise, I have no complaints Hope to try out one of your lunch specials soon.

The food was very bad they have like for menu options the chicken I ordered was supposed to be hot wasn't had multiple hairs wrapped around the bottom piece. I had my nipples pinched ass grabbed harassed by patrons until the bartender took his shirt off and started playing with his nipple rings. Horrible experience. Do not easy out drink here ever

I had the opportunity to visit MJ's Tavern several times during my recent visit to Norfolk, Virginia. The food was beyond belief,... It was so very good! More than anything, feast on the Mac & Cheese! GREAT specials, too! I also commend the owner for his ability to describe incredibly delicious desserts that were a must for me and my friends!

If you're local and you are hunting for your "spot" this may well be a contender. The people that work here know all the regulars and their entire life stories. Just a relaxed community vibe who love to welcome new comers. When Jeff picked out some tunes on the jukebox people were coming over and …

With more than 125 individually owned restaurants between this place and downtown, there is some competition for your dining dollar. MJs promotes itself as a tavern (bar), and so they sell tavern (bar) food. Nothing delicious, nothing terrible, but certainly nothing you are going to take a picture of to post on Facebook to make your friends envious. In other words, MJs is not a destination spot...

The atmosphere was average for a pub. The service was excellent, but it was the middle of the afternoon on a weekday. The food was above average for a pub with a standard pub menu.

Went and checked out this place as it seemed pretty happening, was a little surprised to find out that it was a gay bar (not that there is anything wrong with it, but just not my cup of tea).

They have a pool table up front, plenty of tables and a bar area with a TV that had...
