Came for the pie
Don't make it south of of the I-10 often. Heard that TJ's has some of the best pie in the state, so we swung by. The place reminds me of the diners in Chicago burbs. Small-ish, busy, decorated partly like a home, and a clear 1950s/1960s vibe.
Wait staff was nice and sat us quickly. Lunch of sandwiches was good. And the pie-- one peach crumb and one coconut cream-- were indeed yummy. Can't say they were incredible, though. However, we didn't have apple or cherry since we were told that they are saved for the Friday night service, which is apparently their only dinner shift.
From the menu, I think this place would rock for breakfast.
