This restaurant is a real find. First time here but will definately not be the last. Everything was top notch…we were celebrating my wife’s birthday and they supplied a piece of their delicious in house carrot cake for no charge. Servings were so generous we took home enough food for dinner tonight.

The chicken schnitzel was a delightful surprise! Perfectly cooked and seasoned, it was a flavorful treat. The accompanying vegetables were equally impressive, cooked to perfection and bursting with freshness. A definite must-try for anyone looking for a satisfying meal. Moreover, Our server was exceptional. They were attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and made sure our dining experience was top-notch. Their friendly demeanor and efficient service truly enhanced our meal. We highly recommend this restaurant, not only for the delicious food but also for the outstanding service.

Found a little gem of a place in Kitchener. Mom and pop restaurant with a nice European ambiance and decorations. They were very friendly folks and the food was amazing, high quality. I highly recommend the salmon if your hungry, it's a big dish but one you will remember.

I've been wanting to try this restaurant for a long time, and I regret not going sooner. The chicken schnitzel was one of the best I've ever had. We were a large group and everyone was pleased with their order. I had mashed potatoes with vegetables on the side, which were really good. Others had rice, potatoes, fries and they said the same. I will definitely return to explore more of the menu.

Been here many times. Always near perfect meat & smashed potatoes. The only imperfection is that the food load may overfill you. Beverage is soso, not bad level.

Great food, larger than normal, taste great. We have two people order a meat platter but we have 1/3 leftovers for takeout home after we tried all of our best to eat as much as possible. The owner is so friendly. The interior looks traditional and spacious. Little square with free parking.

Recommended to me by a friend, I went for dinner with my young adult kids. Our waitress was super friendly and accommodating (they created a meal that was meat and dairy free for me). The food tasted amazing and the portions were generous. Tasted like it was made with love in a quaint Serbian kitchen. I’d highly recommend (make reservations if you’re going on a weekend!) Enjoy!!!

We had Me ano meso , very generous portions, decent taste and well prepared. Really liked the idea of the side dish - warm sour cabbage. And you will get two sides nicely served on separate plates. This place looks way better inside than you would guess from outside. Family atmosphere and friendly service. Good value for money.

Great eastern european restaurant. I had the lapinja a pillowy bread served with soft cheese. It was huge and cheap for an appetizer! It was war. And so delicious. Then i had the J&B schnitzel which is a pork cutlet stuffed with soft cheese and wrapped in proscuitto then fried to a crisp. It was huge and filling and came with a ton of veggies. (I subbed veggies instead of rice or potatoes). I am a big guy and i was stuffed! Recommended.

Am updating today.......the food is excellent. PARKING IS BAD ESPECIALLY WHEN ALL THE CABS JUST PARK THERE, THEN THE DRIVERS STAND OUTSIDE THE FRONT DOOR AND SMOKE . ITS DISGUSTING TO GO PAST ALL THAT SMELL.....SERIOUSLY!!! COME ON PEOPLE. !!!!!. AND TO ADD ....WOULD BE NICE IF THE OWNERS WOULD ACTUALLY REPLY TO THE REVIEWS TO SHOW THEY CARE. SND CHANGE THE PARKING AND SMOKE STUFF. The reason Im rating it 2 for service, is because the 1 server was very good and really couldnt do more than what she did, but the other one who may be the owner, was not overly inviting. They had reservations for a birthday starting between 2 and 3, and only 1 long table with reserved sign, and she basically said we couldnt eat at the restaurant. My friend said fine, wed go somewhere else, and all of a sudden she said we could stay but had to be out by 2. We were there at 11:45, and would be done easily by 1. There was a homeless man inside who was told to go outside...he wanted to buy a coffee, but apparently the restaurant hadnt gotten any take out cups with the last order. He was not in our way, and we were seated right in front of the counter. I told the restaurant I wanted to buy him a meal...so did another patron ...they kind of resisted, but finally took the order. Our food came in 10 min. , and after I told the man to come in, he still didnt get his food, and this lady again told him to leave, to which I said hes waiting for some food which I had ordered close to 20 min.ago....there were only 4 other patrons, 2 of which came in after Id ordered his, yet he still hadnt got the food after we were done...1/2 an hr. I complained and was given the reason they had to serve the other patrons first. PARDON ME ??? I expressed my upset, and paid for the food because we had to leave, even though I was hesitant and wanted to make sure he got it. As we were leaving, it finally came out. Not sure Im going back because of this 1 lady. A shame, because the food is very good. :( This is not the way to treat another human being. His name is Robert btw, and I shook his hand and hugged him. Brought me to

A Hidden Gem in Kitchener! J&B Family Restaurant might just be Kitcheners best-kept secret. Starting off with the Lepinja sa kajmakom, the dish was a full of flavors with its creamy texture. It was a treat to the taste buds. The Greek salad was another star on the table. Crisp vegetables combined with a generous serving of feta cheese. The mains were equally impressive. Whether it was the Sausage, the Chevaps, the Skewers, the Pork Chops, or the Karadjordjeva Schnitzel, loved all of them. Of special mention is the Serbian Rakija. Paired with the mixed platter, it added another layer of authenticity and flavor to the dining experience. Coupled with top-notch service, J&B is a must-visit for true food aficionados.

Went in on a Tuesday afternoon for lunch. Google Maps somehow took us to the back of the restaurant & we had to come all the way to the front. Service was impeccable and warm. The waitress was the sweetest person that we met in a while. Had the sole with almonds and fettuccine Alfredo with shrimps. Both the sea food items were fresh and the sole consistency was just perfect. And you have to order the home fries as a side. They are just something by themselves. The pasta didnt look like much but I had changed my opinion by the end of my meal. The portions are worthy for the price you pay. Lovely place that we would love to visit again to try some more items on the menu.

Food might be good but the service is terrible! Rude waitresses while short staffed, she didn t even say Hi after making us wait for 20 minutes for a drink order. No understanding of how to talk to customers or handle orders when busy, DO NOT RECOMMEND!

This place was surprisingly terrific!! I had the meat platter for 1 they just made everything half and it was so good and quite filling. I had it with vegitables and it was broccoli coliflower ect not peas and carrots! I was very impressed and vet full! It was quiet place, not very busy on a Tuesday afternoon but quite friendly. Parking: Theres enough parking in my opinion for the size of the restaurant! Wheelchair accessibility: I wasnt in a wheelchair but I think it would work out fine!

This is an absolute gem, hidden away on Victoria Street in Kitchener. The waitress was so friendly and polite. The food was fabulous, I tried the Nature Schnitzel, which was the traditional breaded schnitzel with mushroom gravy. It was as big as my plate and absolutely delicious. Even though I am from out of town I will definitely be returning. Lovely place, lovely service, and amazing food!!!

Everything about this restourant is absolutely incredible! I loved it the moment I walked in. I am of the same culture as the people who run the restourant and so happy to feel like I am back home while still enjoying variety of meals!

I thought the food was tasty. Had the platter for 2 and they didnt skimp on the portions. However, the chicken kebab was overcooked and tough. In all, I would go back.

Went there for a Christmas lunch. It is a small place with limited parking. It was really busy and seemed to be short staffed for the amount of business. We had reservations and it took awhile for the waitress to get to everyone. The food was plentiful and good.
