★★★★★ 5.0 King Tito · Dec 2025

These guys don’t bullshit… love the straight no chaser personality. Always fresh ingredients 100% Everything I’ve gotten from there is simple and friggin’ delicious. Not a sit down place, a nice clean and beautiful little corner spot off N. Governor Printz Blvd. near the airport. Wether you forgot your lunch/breakfast sandwich at home or if you just want it done right. Wawa has nothing on them. You gotta stop by RJ’s. They won’t let you down. And don’t forget to tip 😉

★★★★★ 5.0 Father & Son Hamburger Spot · Oct 2025

Thought we would give RJs a try First , the place is very clean and the staff extremely friendly! My Daughter got 2 hotdogs and a soda , the hotdogs were delicious, cooked perfect and the roll was fresh. I got the sweet Italian sausage with peppers and onions which was cooked to perfection and the taste was amazing. Onions and peppers were definitely fresh and not overly cooked. My fountain soda was very tasty and I say that because some places the soda tastes more like seltzer than soda. Over all experience is a 10 out of 10! Definitely worth the drive

★★★★★ 5.0 Tom Ridge · Jun 2025

Place is awesome! Old school charm, not that soy boy artisan nonsense like most other places. Have been there a few times when I'm working in the area, never disappoints! Breakfast or lunch, can't go wrong.

Awesome place used to go here as a kid, and in highschool. Recently stopped in to grab lunch while working. I've been back 2/3 times since then. Hot chilli/cheese dogs, and an RJs Root Beer. Awesome lunch, and can't beat the price.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Brandon Chiappetta · Aug 2020

Rj is good for the price. They give you little meat on the breakfast sandwiches. The cream chip beef had no flavor. The chill cheese dog was pretty good.
