New menu has okay choices but their prices are way too high for this market. Two cokes, 2 cheeseburgers and fries. $ 32 with tip!!! WOW! Thanks for making me never want to come back ever!!!

Pan pizza, deep dish, so very good! Not all that common to find a nice pan pizza that is as satisfying as their. Just perfect, suggestion don’t go crazy on ingredients, stick to the basics and enjoy!

Good food but a little pricey for what it is. I enjoy sitting outside in the summer, beautiful view of the lake. My favorite place to take family when they come to visit when looking for somewhere nice to sit outside. Usually great service unless you’re one of the only people sitting outside, but worth it to enjoy the weather and the view!

I have been coming here since I moved. They have the best shrimp appetizer! I cannot emphasize enough how much I love their shrimp, it is one of the best appetizers they have here. Aside from the amazing shrimp they have some pretty good pizza.
The food taste good but another thing that makes the food taste better is the amazing service that you get. I have never experienced a rude waiter here. Just to point out to others, you give what you get in the service industry. If you are nice to your waiters, they will be happy to wait on you. If you are rude then you won’t be getting above and beyond service.
I have ate out near the lake and it is just so peaceful in the summer time. If you like the breeze but don’t enjoy mosquitos or direct sunlight, they have a huge porch with netted windows.
I reccomend eating here, and when you do, try the fish!

I had the apple and mandarin salad with pecans and chicken. It was very good. Order a loaf of bread for $ 2.99 — it’s worth it! Service was good.

Best thin crust pizza around… hands down! We love ground beef on pizza, and theirs is delicious, perfectly baked and not over done with tomato sauce. Fast delivery, too. Try it!

It’s very frustrating trying to reach a business who doesn’t post their phone number on the website, then whose number on Google not only doesn’t ring, but just hangs up completely. I saw on their ad board that they deliver, which I thought would have been wonderful, as I’ve had a long day. Since I was driving, I couldn’t exactly write down the number. Silly me thought I could just retrieve it from the internet. I guess their own network mismanagement will be effective in keeping me from giving my business *shrug* too bad, perhaps? I don’t know.

Just so, so and not worth the $$$. Dinner for family of 4 was just under $ 100. Husband ordered pizza which was great, our teenagers’ dinners were very ok and my wrap dripped about a ½ cup of water and made the tortilla soggy. The servers were working hard to keep up with the large parties and did fine. If the bill was reasonably priced, I’d say it was nothing to write home about, but fine. Since we paid over $ 100 with tip, it was very disappointing.
My family used to get pizza here when I was a kid and it was always good. It seems like it still is. Go for the pizza, but go someplace else for the rest.

I went here last night and I was quite impressed. The service was great. Our waiter was on top of things and extremely polite, the supporting staff was also friendly and great. They were always bringing food, clearing dishes and we never had to ask for refills on water or soda. They had a great beer selection and a great variety on the menu. We had everything from Irish Nachos to fish and pizza. The only thing I wasn’t impressed with was the ribs. I was sort of disappointed. The rest was really good though. All and all, I will be back.

Another poor experience. Place was empty and service was still slow. Décor still dingy and dark (probably to prevent people from seeing the dirty tables). Place needs an facelift. Not planning to go back.

I’ve lived in Lindenhurst for 25 years and have gone to this restaurant for as long as I can remember. For the past couple of years I was very disappointed with the food and service. I decided to give it another shot and I was very happy that I did. The food was phenomenal, drinks were good and the service was very helpful and accommodating. I’m so happy this place turned around

I went back for a change of pace and it was a treat. The servers have been great here in the past and this outing was no different. Our waitress was fantastic. My friend ordered a lynchburg lemonade and the server took the recipe to the bartender. The drink was fantastic.
The food was much better this time and I ordered a dish I didn’t care for before to give this place an honest 2nd try. It was great. I ordered the crispy chicken tacos and they were great! The loaded waffle fries were insanely good and the leftovers made a great lunch for qork the next day.
The place wasn’t super busy, but there was pleanty to do for the staff. A few large groups were eating there and we didn’t notice. It seems like the place has taken steps to improve management.
I will be back.

Awful. Ordered coconut cream pie drink and was brought a seltzer water in a margarita glass. Food is just plain bland. You can tell there is absolutly no management guidance for the poor kids that work there. All the cooks should be trained on how to cook tasty food. Will never return.

I’ve been here twice, love the fact thats its by the lake. Food is delicious, but a bit pricy for the amount of food you get (like the shrimp). I guess it depends what you order. Their veggies tasted like they were frozen rather then fresh, it was quite rubbery. Love the fact that they have outdoor patio as well as the screened in patio. I give them four stars for the environment (quite friendly), the food is great (will not be ordering the veggies), and 3 stars because it’s a bit pricy (im quite broke). Will be coming back for special occasions, only.

Haven’t been here since 2010. Before that 2005. Now I remember why. Never again. Pretty bad all around. If you’re thinking about trying this place, please don’t.

Another visit another bad experience.
Ordered the fish fry with a baked potato. When the dinner came out the baked potato was brown. I asked the waitress why mine was brown and my wife’s looked normal, she said oh let me take it back
Five minutes later she brought me out another one and it didn’t look any better. A manager came out to apologize. I told her we have been here several times and theirs always something wrong with the food or service. All she could do was apoligize. Didn’t offer to take anything off the bill. This place is a joke and never an owner on site. Poorly managed and a very young staff. Don’t waste your hard earned money on this place.

The pizza is amazing but the customer service is horrific. Staff argues with you instead of admitting fault. When you ask for a manager, you will wait for ever (maybe they’re hoping you will just get frustrated and go away) and the Managers argue with you as well. I have been through this twice now, with two different managers. Very disappointed. Will no longer have anything delivered. I will pick up in person and they can try and argue with me then! What’s worse, I order the same thing ever time. Come on RJ’s, get it together! What good is it to have good food if a customer doesn’t feel welcome?

Usually eat here once a month for a group meeting. Food has been decent, although on the last visit my pasta was waaaaay overcooked to the point of mush. Since my meal came later than everyone else’s to start with, I just ate it instead of waiting again for a replacement. Rather disappointed they didn’t offer a price reduction on the bill for the screw-​up.
Staff have almost always been attentive, although at times in the evenings the music can be extremely loud — to the point that you can’t carry on a conversation with the person next to you.
If the weather’s decent, ask to be seated in their outdoor screened room. Right on the lake with a beautiful view.
