    My wife and I have dined here several times. This last time I went there with a very good friend. The food, personnel and ambience have been consistently outstanding. It's a wonderful experience and I (we) have never been disappointed!

    I brought my coworkers out to dinner at MJs and everyone commented that the dry aged steak was the best they had in a very long time or ever. I would agree 100% and I eat dry aged steak often and consider myself knowledgeable in this area. The sides and appetizers were also excellent. They have an extensive wine selection that adds to the experience. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.

    We went here on a day when there was a big event going on in downtown New London. They had a limited menu due to the event so we didn't get to sample the full menu. With that said, what we did have was absolutely fantastic. The group I was with had jerk chicken sandwiches, a short rib sandwich, a smashburger, and a salad. We were all totally happy with our meals. Moreover, the service was absolutely fantastic. The young woman serving us was extremely friendly and attentive. The owner was awesome. She chatted with us and checked on us regularly to make sure we were happy. We sat on their back porch, which was lovely and provided a view of the harbor. I definitely recommend this place and look forward to going back to sample their full menu!
