Was Naomi Valerio at Java Jam a mag?

What a wonderful breakfast! A huge thank you to our waitress Dejanee for making our experience both enjoyable and gracious. The Eggs Benedict was rich and delicious, while the churro latte was simply amazing. However, the real highlight for me was the coconut chia pudding topped with mango, mint, and strawberries—it was absolutely delightful! Food: 5/5 View all feedback.

What Dmitry Dmitry dislikes about Java Jam:

The menu features Eggs Benedict, so I ordered it, but I was very disappointed to receive eggs covered in mayonnaise. Please teach the chef how to properly make Hollandaise sauce, as it seems they don’t realize that Eggs Benedict requires Hollandaise, not mayonnaise! This was a very poor breakfast experience. Food: 1/5 View all feedback.

Went twice within a months span both times everything was great. Though the wait time can be long, the food drinks are well worth it. The first time I went I got the Berry Sunset Mojito (excellent strong), the Chicken Biscuit Sandwich. The food wasso fresh flavorful. Second time I got the Greek Omelet, Cheddar Grits a Biscuit.

Visiting area and close to hotel.. food was really good.. fresh squeezed oj and homemade jam. Busy with online orders but waiter kept us updated. As restaurant owners ourselves we understand the challenges. Had Eggs Benedict and Bacon Omelette. Niceatmosphere.

The food here is outstanding, showcasing top-notch gourmet ingredients. We loved the creative combinations of flavors. They also serve excellent coffee and have a fantastic drinks menu, which enhances the upscale ambiance. One of the best features for us was how dog-friendly the restaurant is; we saw several well-mannered dogs enjoying the space, complete with bowls of water available for them!

This restaurant is a fantastic little treasure in downtown Fort Lauderdale! I thoroughly enjoyed the food here. The pancakes were incredible, the eggs Benedict were exceptional, and our drinks were simply delightful! The service was superb, and the atmosphere was charming. I suggest making a reservation for brunch, as it can get busy, but we didn't have to wait too long. I strongly recommend this spot for a lovely brunch in Fort Lauderdale!

This is definitely one of my favorite places for breakfast. The service is always top-notch and speedy, and the food is consistently delicious. You must try the banana bread French toast; the mango compote takes it to a whole new level. I also love the taco eggs, which are like a breakfast burrito, and the salsa on them is absolutely delicious. I sampled the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Chai and was pleasantly surprised; it wasn’t overly sweet but still had a wonderful flavor. I will definitely be back to explore more of the menu. Highly recommended!

We had a lovely late Sunday morning breakfast at Java Jam on Las Olas. We were promptly greeted and put on the waitlist. You will be notified by text when your table is ready. Be prepared to wait here. It is always busy. You will find seating inside and out on the covered patio.The food and coffee were both tasty, the service was excellent and in spite of so many people waiting, we did not feel rushed. They serve Wells Coffee and the iced Creme Brûlée Cappuccino was out of this world! We had a steak and egg dish with Parmesan truffle fries that was delicious along with a fresh and scrumptious avocado toast.There is paid parking on the street and in nearby lots. Download the parking app as it makes it much easier in and around the city!

Amazing place to have breakfast in Ft.Lauderdale. The coffee is excellent. The banana bread toast was out of this world sweet but not too much. The sausage to die for and bread locally made was incredible. Our server Grace was very professional and personable... loved my experience here. I would definitely come back while in FL.Food: 5/5

This delightful breakfast café is situated right in downtown Fort Lauderdale. The food is excellent, featuring a broad selection of healthy choices. I particularly enjoyed dining beneath the vine-covered trellis, which provided pleasant shade. Although I appreciate that the restaurant welcomes dogs, I was a bit bothered by the dog hair on the seat cushions at our table. It would be great if the staff could use a lint roller on the cushions when clearing tables.

The food is exceptional, made with high-quality gourmet ingredients. We loved the unique flavor combinations. The selection of coffee and beverages is excellent, enhancing the overall experience. The standout feature was the dog-friendly atmosphere; there were several well-groomed dogs happily accompanied by water bowls!

Java Jam is conveniently located right on Las Olas. If you're in need of parking, I recommend checking the nearby side streets, where you'll likely find some spots. I ordered the Taco Eggs, paired with a Cheddar Biscuit, while my fiancée chose the Lachs Pad. Our meal was absolutely delightful—we finished every bite! The standout for me was the thick-cut bacon, which was cooked to perfection. I loved the atmosphere; it was relaxed and airy, with just the right amount of background noise. The place had that classic diner feel combined with the vibrant energy of Las Olas. I'd definitely come back in a heartbeat! The highlight of our experience, however, was the service. It was flawless from start to finish. Checking in was easy, and our waiter made us feel right at home. We only waited about 5 to 10 minutes, even on a busy Saturday afternoon.

The food was good, though not outstanding, but it certainly had its share of flavor. I ordered the banana bread French toast, which was essentially banana bread cut into slices. It wasn’t what I expected, but I still found it enjoyable. Our server, Harrison, was amazing! His service was excellent; even with many tables to manage, he greeted us warmly and made sure our water and food came out quickly. If you go, I highly recommend requesting Harrison as your server. The hostess even mentioned that we were in great hands. He was very kind and truly enhanced our dining experience. You could see how much he takes pride in his work—he waited for our food to be served before checking in to see how we were doing. He is one of the best servers I’ve ever had, and my husband and I will definitely return because of the wonderful experience he provided. Java and Jam, if you read this review, please consider giving him a raise!
