CJ’s in Tiger Country


The best wings in the Midwest CJ’s has been a Columbia staple for 20 years and counting!


We use only quality ingredients, prepared with care and integrity. Our famous wings – our claim to fame – have never seen the inside of a freezer or a heat lamp; they’re served fresh and hot, straight from the fryer to your table. CJ’s sauces don’t come from a supermarket. They’re made right here in our kitchen, and available for sale every night.

We can do this because CJ’s isn’t some nation-wide chain. We’re local, and proud of it. Our family has strong ties to the MU sports program; the owner’s grandfather was quarterback Bus Enstminger, who helped pioneer the Split-T formation under Don Faurot in the 1940’s. We take pride in our commitment to supporting local sports, and MU memorabilia is everywhere you look in CJ’s.

CJ’s has been a Columbia favorite for more than 20 years. We’re proud to bring you the hottest wings, the coldest beer, and the most exciting sports, in a great family atmosphere you’re sure to love. Come in today and learn why CJ’s isn’t just a restaurant – it’s a Tiger Country tradition!
