I ate at JRs a couple of times and was not happy with the food. Steak and Shake offers much better food and has a better variety.

My one vist to JR's was also awful. We sat outside, and the food was OK (not good, but edible), but the wait was atrocious. Close to 40 minutes! For me, the worst part was the SMELL inside. It was horrible. Mostly it smelled dirty.

Only been to JR's once in 3 years of living in TV. I did't like it then and after reading this thread I don't think I will go any time soon.

We went to Johnny Roc kets for lunch back in Dec. on our first visit to TV. It was by far our worst meal of the week. The service was horrendous and the food was atrocious.We will never go back.:beer3:

From the sound of it, JR's might be the next empty restaurant in TV.

I agree with zcaveman, Steak n Shake is our "go to" place for a burger, fries and a malt.

YUM, 5 guys will put them all out of business. Excellent burgers and fries. Not as good as In and Out, but real close.

Johnny Rockets is really a disgrace. It is dirty and it stinks inside. For an eatery in The Villages, I am surprised it has remained open for so long. Most people are very particular of their eateries and this place is just awful.
The most delicious burger I have tried in TV is in The Havana restaurant. It was truly a treat and the wait staff is very friendly.

I saw the ad that they were hiring in The Sun and I was thrilled. Since all they serve is burger, fries and hot dogs, you would think they would make a good burger.

Well it's a great burger and fresh cut fries, perfection:icon_hungry::icon_hungry:

I am still curious ....how does this place JR"S pass inspection?

I agree
 

I have eaten at JR's in Winter Park and there is no comparison with the service and food. The JR's in TV is just plain awful. Suppose they will be gone before to long as well

Does anybody ever tell the manager, servers or owners to read Talk of The Villages? I can't image this thread totally escapes their notice.

BUT, I don't think they're going to golf cart accessible.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Does anyone know if JR's are corporate or franchised?

You'd think a corporately owned location would be more consistent than a franchise.

Looks to be a very big chain:

Their location in LSL is great, too bad it is mismanaged.

I just sent a Guest Comment on their form - might get some action if others did too:
