Working with Amy

By Susan R., Albuquerque, NM, Verified Reviewer

I tried online dating, I really did. I went on reputable dating sites and I was still catfished four times. That’s when I decided I needed a wing woman! I was nervous because I’d never worked with a professional matchmaker, but Amy makes it a pleasure. We spent a good deal of time together and she listened to everything I said. She asked detailed questions about my history, what I was looking for now and what I hoped for in the future. Amy is enthusiastic and she has a wonderful sense of humor, which is a must in dating situations! The coolest thing about Amy is how she makes this feel very natural. Even dealing with Covid! I’ve gone on one date and he had many of the qualities I asked for. I’m not fearful at all anymore and I’m very optimistic about the future. Bring it on!

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Wonderful company and staff

By Anonymous .., New York, Verified Reviewer

Claudia signed me up. She was compassionate and took her time to really understand me and explain the process. Daniella then took over, providing an outstanding date for me. Daniella took all my requests into consideration without judgment. She called promptly for feedback after the date. I am truly pleased with IJL's professionalism and trust their matchmaking capabilities.

Obed got it right

By Kyle N., St. Louis, MO, Verified Reviewer

My name is Kyle and an IJL client. After a number of dates I hit it off with a sweet woman. You may be skeptical at first but it does work. A little pricey at times but it did help alleviate the guessing game when it came to dating. Obed has worked with me to find a great match.

It's Just Lunch is great

By Joan S., Boston, MA, Verified Reviewer

Josephine, the matchmaker, is amazing. She listened to what I was looking for in a partner and matched me perfectly. I just had my first date! It's Just Lunch is the best way to meet new quality matches for anyone with a busy lifestyle.

I was originally contacted by Misty and she was also very professional and caring. I spoke to Misty for over an hour and she really explained how the program works and made me feel really comfortable.

I would recommend this to anybody who is serious and would like to meet someone.

D and K

By Katherine K., Louisville, KY, Verified Reviewer

Unlike other IJL dates, I was getting ready to go in, from my car, convertible top down, when D walked by. I called his name while finishing my last-minute make-up session, and he surprisingly knew it was me, from the photos. Great icebreaker! He opened my car door, then we had old fashions, talked, ate dinner, mostly laughed, and even played Pickleball on the sidewalk. Then, we left to a riverfront band and danced the night away.

It’s Just Lunch and Kevin created the perfect evening! Thank you.

Length of Use: 2+ years

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

I liked the matchmaker, Kevin.

I liked his help when I had extenuating circumstances, pre-D.

Clearly, IJL works!

I love my matchmaker Debra!

By Peg S., Baltimore, MD, Verified Reviewer

Debra has been fantastic. Her insights are spot on. She takes the time to tell me a little something about each one of my dates. She is also very practical with her tips and suggestions and I find myself enjoying each and every conversation. While most dates end up in the friend zone, each and every one has been an adventure. Thanks to Debra I give IJL a five-star review.

Length of Use: 6–12 months

My first date arranged by It's Just Lunch

By Corliss R., Simi Valley, CA, Verified Reviewer

Even though I have only been out on one date, the whole experience has been quite pleasant. The matchmaker, Amy M, added a lot of value to the service with her professionalism and knowledge of the services offered. I do look forward to more dates in the future until I find the right person. I have expanded my geographical territory and hopefully this will bring in more of a selection.

Length of Use: 3–6 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

My matchmaker, Amy M, is professional and understood my desires to start dating again, explained in detail what the services had to offer.

My husband passed away, she was compassionate and caring, she was engaged in listening to the type of partner I am looking for.

The Zoom meeting added a personal touch to the interview process, as opposed to filling out a questionnaire and sending in some photographs.

I love the fact that the other person was interviewed as well.

I appreciated that Amy M arranged the meeting place for lunch at Vitello's in Studio City, I liked the experience even though I was quite nervous.

Signed up for the service the beginning of the year, have only been on one date with a very nice person, but no interest on my part to continue seeing him.

My file was transferred to another matchmaker, Lauren, she did not call, and the only reason she finally called is because I reached out to her.

She had a very caviler approach, made me feel she was not really interested in my situation.

Since I have widened my geographical scope, I hope to see more dates in the future.

Vanessa from It's Just For Lunch

By Kate A., Toronto, Canada, Verified Reviewer

I signed up with this company almost two years ago. I wanted to try hard to find the great partner. At the beginning it took time to find the right person to work with. I do not lie that I was frustrated, then I started working with Vanessa. It has been a life experience. I have not found my match yet, but I learned from her to know better myself, to understand what I am really looking for. Even I am a great professional, it takes time to understand where to fit myself. Even though I am complicated, Vanessa can easily read through my words and expectations and teach me to never rush anything...I will understand when it will be my time. Meanwhile, she is giving me the opportunity to have wonderful dates with many interesting men. I do not lie that I am frustrated about timing, but she contacts me only when she is sure to not waste my time and giving me the wonderful experience of a nice date. Wish you can enjoy the fun part of dating, and the amazing experience to deal with Vanessa - Just for Lunch.

Length of Use: 1–2 years

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

I’ve been very impressed!

By Alvin W., Staunton, VA, Verified Reviewer

Since the pandemic hit, I haven’t been out as much as I once did. Consequently, I’ve missed many opportunities to meet new single women. And then I heard about It’s Just Lunch. Once I made contact, I was immediately impressed. I’ve tried other dating sites, but with It’s Just Lunch, I don’t have to browse through hundreds of profiles. And I have a matchmaker who has spent time getting to know me and what I’m looking for. My experience has been favorable and I recommend their services. Thank you, It’s Just Lunch!
