JJ Jamokes Restaurant

I understand there are not a lot of options in Caro, but the brunch here was awful. The gravy for the bicuits tested like raw onion. The crepes and quiche were passable, but thats about it. thank God they have alcohol here.
I will say that the service is by far the best part of this place. Everyone working here was wonderful.
I guess I would come here and give the dinner a chance, but baw gawd the brunch is making that tough to consider.

Great food and never had bad service. The view out back is amazing especially when wildlife come in.

Charges a surcharge for using credit cards. Claims it’s posted on the door before you walk in, however it was not when we dined, and was not given a heads up until our bill arrived.

Had the all you can eat ribs special. They were fantastic. Prices are a little higher, but still in the $ 15-​$ 20 per plate range; with sandwiches and wraps coming in closer to $ 10 as an option. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Great place, beautiful backyard view, yummy food, loved the little bread basket with orange fritters, chicken salad with fresh fruit was excellent, service was great. One of the best dining experiences in the Thumb area!

Great almost hidden place off the road. Awesome food and service. Landscaped back 40 with deer and turkeys to enjoy while you eat. Excellent lounge area. Fried pickles were amazing. Will be here again guaranteed.

Really hometown feel, I was very happy with the service and the great menu choices. The waitress was very attentive and cheerful.
I had the Chicken Carbonara, it was prepared perfect! Full of flavor and the portions where enough for 2 people.
The atmosphere is down to earth and has a family friendly environment. The bathroom was very clean and the manager was really friendly.
Looking forward to going back.

The last time we came here was Mother’s Day.
They had a «special» menu just for Mother’s Day. This usually means a limited amount of choices and extra high prices. That’s exactly what we got.
Ostensibly, the idea of a limited menu on special holidays is so that the kitchen staff can make the food quickly, well that didn’t happen. We waited like an hour for the food and then it was crap.
Orders were all mixed up and made wrong too.
My sister’s family ordered deep fried appetizers that turned out to be house made. The batter was nasty and dripping with grease. I can’t believe they serve such bad food here.
My bacon wrapped fillet was nearly raw and still ice cold in the middle, I ordered it medium. Because I didn’t want some upset cook spitting in my food, I didn’t send it back. I did point it out to the owner when we were paying the bill though. I showed him the steak and I asked him if the steak looked like it was cooked medium. He said «no. I would say that is raw», then he just gave me the bill and walked away. I couldn’t believe that he didn’t even apologize.
The décor here is quite strange, much like some weird state hospital or a convalescent home. There is a large window that shows a garden area though. We got to see two of the most feminine homosexual men kiss and grope each other in the garden. Really quite an unexpected extra feature that we never could have imagined to see. By the way, if you do go out the garden area, plug your nose, because an over powering stench of an open sewer fills the air.
My bill was pushing the $ 100.00 mark without the tip. What a rip-​off!
I will never come here again, I said that after a similar experience five years ago, but I got my arm twisted into coming to this craphole again and I gave in. I won’t give in next time.

There is a reason you think of the word «joke» when you see this restaurant’s name. That’s because this restaurant IS a joke. The food is bland, tasteless and boring. The service is terrible. The waitress gave my husband her phone number right in front of me while taking out drink order! The décor is a pathetically hilarious attempt on trying to be stylish– in the 1980s. And for those prices, the food should have been 5 star quality but it wasn’t. The only thing that saves this place is the view. But I would NEVER come back to a restaurant just for a view

The bartender/​manager was really attentive and this was the only place in town with the big ten package so we could watch the Michigan/​Michigan State game. The décor has been recently updated and I found the atmosphere to be quite cozy in the bar. I also liked that the owner was visiting tables during the dinner rush– classy. But the food was marginal at best. I ordered bacon wrapped filet medallions med rare and they came out like shoe leather. The manager took the meal off my bill even though I didn’t ask him too. The escargot appetizer we shared was overcooked– nothing worse than rubbery escargot. It’s like overcooking scallops– rubbery is just really bad.
So– the verdict is good service, but not good food.

JJ is great for business lunch; especially when you are visiting for the day.

If visiting Caro you must visit JJ Jamokes. Caros options are not that great but this place is amazing. The baked french onion is the best I have had in a long time.
