Tj's Restaurant And Bar - PENNINGTON

Arrived during business hours, but doors were locked. Tables inside were set, looks like they left one night and never came back. No explanation for closure on the door...

This restaurant is getting a one star review because my husband and step father went into this restaurant and were treated like they didn't exist. The fact that bartenders can completely ignore guests is beyond me. As a bartender myself, that's how you make money. And we are all big tippers when we are treated with great service, I mean even good service. Having to get the staffs attention just to order your first round of drink? That's ridiculous. And the fact that the owner did not even care about food coming out cold when you know the guest personally? Poor management. VERY poor management right there. That is absolutely not how you run a business that's changes names multiple times I'm sure trying to recover from a pandemic. These are multiple reasons this restaurant will close.

Ordered dinner tonight 2 apps 2 salads and 3 entrees. They only provided 1 entree and made no attempt to let us know so now we have no dinner for 2/3rds of our family. When I called to ask why we didn't get our full order the person that answered the phone was incredibly rude. No reason to return, hasn't been good since Diamonds left this location. Mistakes happen but how you respond matters.

Tried this establishment for the first time on the night after Valentine's Day. Quiet Tuesday night near closing. Greeted by our waiter who was extremely pleasant and accommodating. Like the atmosphere and decor a lot. Nothing spectacular but very cozy. Ordered Sausage Prosciutto bread which was 5/5. Highly recommend. Then a Caesar salad that was 4/5. Very good. My entree was the Gnocchi Bolognese which was just fine. The burrata was a nice touch but overall the dish was average. 3/5. Would come back!

TJ’s has been one of our favorite places to go out and eat for the past few years. The food is excellent and the staff is very pleasant. There is a very cozy atmosphere as well. I have tried a lot of their dishes and have been pleased with many of them. The riggies and the chicken parm are my favorites. Their riggies are served with a red sauce, which is unique, but even more delicious than the usual vodka cream sauce used elsewhere. I highly recommend you give them a try.
