    We love the outdoor seating at J’s and the variety of the menu. We’ve always enjoyed our meals here, the food is what you’d expect from a Jewish deli, usually very good and sometimes only solid. Tony is a lovely and attentive server. Definitely a good place to bring a group.

    We again had a great experience at J’s Deli. The owner greeted us warmly and our server, Tony, attended to us perfectly. The food was of high quality and super tasty. We’ll be going back to J’s Deli on a regular basis.

    We’ve always enjoyed J’s for breakfast. Today the omelets were tasty and the service from Tony and the entire team was exceptional. Next time we’ll come in time for one of the specials and maybe the excellent Eggs Benedict.

    Always consider J's when looking to dine out of one of the deli's in the desert. J's offers a wide menu, spacious seating area , good food, and friendly staff. Pricing won't max out your credit card although be prepared to spend a bit more for things you used to spend a lot less.
