I dine here often for breakfast. Best bargain in town for simple bacon and eggs. Their other breakfast options are also delicious (French Toast, Egg Scramble, Breakfast Sandwich etc...) and the portions are generous. Coffee and other drinks (Even a Bloody Mary if you want one!) are available at The Buzz, also located in the food court.

Tucked inside The Landing in Decorah, Justin's offers a charming cafe experience with a menu that pleasantly surprises with its diversity. Whether you're in the mood for something hearty or light, there's a good range of options to choose from . I tried the chipotle chicken burrito , which was flavorful and satisfying. While it didn’t resemble the traditional burrito you'd find at a Mexican restaurant—it looked more like a large hot pocket , likely cooked after being wrapped—it still delivered on taste. Service was friendly and efficient , making the visit smooth and enjoyable. The ambiance inside the shared common area is warm and inviting , with a casual vibe that encourages lingering over coffee or conversation. If you're looking for a laid-back spot with good food and a welcoming atmosphere, Justin's is worth a visit. Just don’t expect textbook presentation—this place puts its own spin on things, and that’s part of the charm .

Delicious food every time we go there. The staff is friendly, and we get a great portion for the money. I definitely recommend their fish tacos, and their Norwegian Tacos (made with Lefse). But my favorite is the seared salmon salad! Just yum!
