Far beyond what I expected!
June 9, 2023

Dating is so difficult these days, finding the right person is close to impossible. Sure there are plenty of dating sites out there, I know, I joined a bunch of them, but all too often the person's description is incorrect and the pictures can be 20 or 30 years old.

I was not sure what to expect when I joined It's Just Lunch several months ago, but any hopes for success in the dating world have not only been met but exceeded as well thanks to Bryanna and It's Just Lunch!

That's why having a personal counselor like Bryanna is imperative. She's able to comb through the good and the not-so-good and the suggestions are right on target. I feel like she's my new best friend looking out for me every day. That's a rare feeling these days in our modern world, everything seems to be impersonal, computer operated, and leaving you wishing there was a better option.

I'm here to tell you that Bryanna and It's Just Lunch are the real deal and they are the real option in our normally out-of-control dating world! My faith has been restored in the personal touch that It's Just Lunch offers.

Jayie was a gem. He took his tome and matched me up with the perfect date. It was very weird, but we everything in common right from the start and ended up in a very happy relationship within a week...unbelievable I know but true.

I would highly recommend Jaiye to all present and future IJL clients. He's professional and knows his business...THE BEST!

Waste of money
June 7, 2023

I never write reviews on anything but this company really pisses me off, Worst thing i ever signed up for. I signed up last summer, said age group i was interested in, someone fit and good looking was big to me, Iv been sent guys way older then what i said i wanted, old / bald / fat / outta shape, u name it, and as i been saying no shot to those awful dates i didn't know when i signed up those count, i payed 5k and have yet to go on one single date through this company. The couple i said yes too i was told there unavailable once they were sent to me and i said yes. I don't even know if those count on your pics. Such a scam this site is, save your money trust me.
After a few months i seen asap it was a scam asked for a refund, o then and hadn't yet been on a date, i was told I'm past the refund time frame. So what's been done with my 5k?

Wish I would have done my homework better and saw these reviews here. Save your money. The person in sales painted a very nice picture was very responsive spent a lot of time with me but once they had my money it became a different story. I was explaining there'll be 24 matches. Later I found out it's match opportunities, so if I don't accept the match that they give me I just lost that match. The first guy was really not what I was looking for just in photo and description. The second guy was better the date was set up and he no-showed. No response from anybody at the company two days later I finally found out he had a flight change. That matchmaker was not very good at communicating in fact I didn't hear from her for 2 weeks after I was stood up. I got a new matchmaker who was better, the first date they gave me was okay but I went on it because I knew I would lose that match if I didn't and I had to trust the process. However that date also failed to show, said he was stuck in traffic. I asked for a refund and was told someone to get back in 48 hours, however it's been exactly one week and I finally spoke with someone who said a refund's not possible because they can still give me opportunities. They are escalating me to someone who might be able to help me but said they don't do refunds. Did I mention the service cost $5,000? So I'm currently disputing it with my credit card company. More pathetic than online dating ever was

I was sent a link to fill this out and...heh...

Dating in the 21st century sucks. It hasn't been easy for me. So I touched base with IJL. Instead of feeling good about them, I was met with horrible sales tactics. Upon showing a lack of interest in subscribing due to price, sales staff, on two different occasions, were EXTREMELY pushy, resorting to insults and personal attacks to try to get you to subscribe ("Do you REALLY want to tell people you met on TINDER?"/"Well, nothing else you're doing is working, is it?"), refusing to accept "No" for an answer until you hang up on them. I felt like I was car shopping.

I'm on a reserve list for dates where nothing is guaranteed but, if you're needed, you get calls, and I've had an alright experience with that, enough to pull this rating from a 1 to 2. I think I've had 4-5 dates since 2020 and Matchmakers, including Tricia, are helpful and good to work with.

Tricia LISTENS
April 16, 2023

It is GREAT GREAT GREAT to work with Tricia. It may seem small, but she actually LISTENS and takes my thoughts seriously. I've had 3 dates and we've discussed each one. One of these went extremely well and Tricia has used this information to refine the search to find more matches like her.

I have been a member since November 2022. Not one date. I have asked for my money back, however, they continue to state they can service me. I have no confidence or trust in this company.
I would like a refund. I don't believe in them or there ability.
This has been a complete and total nightmare for me.
I just a partial refund so I can go on my way. I am tired of empty promises from this company.
Unhappy and dateless with no refund.

After 5 months of membership
April 9, 2023

After 5 months of membership, I finally got a date worth accepting. It was so good, we've decided to go on a 2nd date! IJL's restaurant venues in Albuquerque appear to be very limited and were placed at Buca di Beppo, serving family style portions of italian food. How does that work for an intimate date for two? Suggest IJL expand it's footprint.

Great matchmaker!
April 6, 2023

Tricia R was my executive matchmaker, and I think that she did a great job listening to what I was looking for and finding a great potential match for me. She has really good energy and was very excited to find the right person for me. Mike and I had a great time on our first date - we made a great connection and had a lot in common. We have been texting/talking since, and are looking forward to date #2! Overall, I feel I have met some great people through IJL, and appreciate being introduced to people I would not have met on my own.

Total trash! Do not waste your time and money on this archaic, unethical system called It's Just Lunch. The promises they make up front are total BS and the clientele list they claim to have, they do not. They rotate the same people around, in an effort to convince you of what they claim. Most of the dates I went on were WAY below the standards I asked for. And, a couple of them shared they aren't even clients of IJL, so it sounds like they are paying men to go on dates. Again, don't waste your time.

Total Scam
April 5, 2023

I would totally stay away from It's Just Lunch. They reel you in with great promises and then offer nothing. What they don't exactly tell you is that any potential Match that they propose is considered a Date - so you pay $1,000 for 3 Dates and then they show you a "Match" who you don't like so you say NO and that counts as a Date - $333 down. I specifically said no fat guys - (I'm 5'3 120 - I don't want some big fat slob) the first guy they sent me was gross and fat so of course I said no - oh well, $333 gone. It's like a scam - all they have to do is send you people that you won't like, you say no, and they keep your money. It's been 3 weeks since I was sent this AMAZING match so of course I reached out to my "Dating Coach" and he totally blew me off with "I will be in touch with you soon regarding a new match. I have been searching and selecting and be call you as soon as I have a new potential match that meets your criteria" Which is so funny because when we spoke he had SO MANY amazing men he couldn't wait to set me up with - now all of a sudden he can't even find one LOL - this site is such a racket - save your money!

Hi Kristen, thank you for your feedback. You are correct, any time IJL presents a date that aligns with the criteria outlined in the membership agreement, it is one of the dates we have provided. You have the option to say yes or no to the dates, however, the dates presented are what IJL considers a date. We look foward to arranging your final date and will be in touch soon.
