I joined It's Just Lunch about a year and a half ago. It took that long to complete the 6 dates. I had 2 no shows and 1 date that was so far off of what I wanted. Now overall the dates were good but unfortunately none of them have worked out.

No relationships, but feel Debbie has worked very hard to make it happen for me. She definitely has worked to keep me safe. Works out a date so that I can make the meeting and get back to my house quickly and safely. The process is slow and keeping safety in mind may be one of the causes of this.

This dating service is a scam! The price is exorbitant - $5200. They use the price to support the claim that they will be matching you with a certain income level/professional type, since everyone pays to join. That is simply not true. They scam people into joining, and have what seems to be a very limited database of clients. They matched me with someone who had literally opposite interests from me and purposefully misrepresented his professional role. They also refuse to give any type of refund, even though I requested this only two days after I joined and before I even used the service (went on any dates.) This is a scam. Save your money!

The overall experience was pleasant. Early in the process, my dating director left the company and my account was in limbo for a little while. I called in to check on status of activity and it took a while for things to get reassigned. After it did, the new dating director only called to talk about a match and not introduce herself. I was concerned because she was offering matches which did not match my interests. It worked out over time, but the process to have 4 dates took almost a year. While I didn't find a great connection with my dating director, the quality of the dates were good.

Everyone I spoke to at IJL was very helpful and kind and clearly take great care and pride in their work (esp. Nyauda). I appreciated all the calls and emails before and after. Only change I would ask for is to ask lunch attendees where they want to eat or at least what neighborhood. The restaurant was very far from both of us and had no "ambiance." Overall a good experience, however!

Not Online Dating. Thankfully! I spent about 4 months with dating websites before I realized it might not be the best thing for me. I was comfortable with creating my profile and reaching out to others who were going through the same process but I soon realized it just didn't feel like they were looking for the same thing. I first looked into IJL thinking they were an online dating service with the added benefit of speaking to a human being but they are not an online service at all. They are truly a matchmaking service, with dating specialists to help with the time-consuming process and introduce you to people you would never have a chance to meet otherwise.
Basically, they do the legwork for you. It's much more expensive than doing it yourself, but it's worth every penny. My best advice is to make sure you communicate with them. They are only as good as the information you give them. Also remember, just like dating organically, timing and luck are still involved. The right person has to somehow come across their desk and be available at the same time that you are. IJL simply ups your odds of that happening and gives you a better chance of finding the right person. You still need to have patience. If you can afford it, I would highly recommend It's Just Lunch. It worked for me!

I must say we aren't even averaging one date a month. Let me preface. I think Debbie & Onika are nice people but I'm not too impressed with this process. I'm assuming the company limits what can be offered for some particular reason and why they only guarantee four or six dates in a contract period depending on duration. I'm not really seeing the value. Not to mention of the three dates I've been, I would not label any a success. I've had more luck with first, second, and third dates w/ the free or minimal monthly payment online services like Match or OkCupid.

Don't waste your money. They wait to set you up on your first date until after the state law mandated cancellation period (3-days in my state), and then their database has such slim pickings, they just pick anybody. I'm a white-collar business owner who works with people in the C-suite every day and my first date was with a retired auto mechanic who now works for himself hauling mulch 4 days per week. On what planet is that a reasonable match. In response to my feedback my matchmaker said "...is a successful retired man, who started an LLC, is on the City counsel Board of the city that he lives." Plus he had to drive almost 1-hour to meet within 25 minutes of my house. I'd rather comb through profiles at Match.com - I'd at least have a chance to vet first-hand whether they're lying on their profile.

I have rejoined IJL after a rather lengthy break and so far, it's been fairly good. Too early to render a final conclusive verdict of course, but Nyauda and everyone else I have dealt with are nice, responsive, helpful and attentive. Matching under their new Private Search system/method sometimes takes a little longer now as opposed to the earlier "blind dating" approach; it seems both have their merits. When I was a member some time ago using the old way, I'd say out of every five matches I might be truly attracted to or interested in maybe two or three, roughly. There were "streaks" of great matches and then "streaks" of so-so or lackluster ones. Matching/dating was however more frequent, as I was out once a week or so if I wanted to be.
Now it may take longer to get a match, but one can see a profile, get a better preliminary idea of the other person's interests, personality, background, physical attributes, etc., then decide whether to meet or to decline and try another. I think if IJL takes feedback into strong consideration and really focuses in on what members say they want and what their parameters are in terms of their "types", their goals and aspirations for a relationship, etc. then this new formula could work very well. Ideally it could make many people happy. I feel that that's the key: Really trying hard to give people what they truly want, within realistic boundaries of course. (There's no perfect, just perfect for YOU, as the saying goes.)
Over the times I have worked with IJL I have met a huge variety of women, some very beautiful, extremely intriguing and exciting, hailing from countless different cultures. From Romanian to Chinese to Scottish to Puerto Rican. Plus American ladies from every corner of the U.S. and many varied lineages. In closing, it's been interesting so far; my greatest hope is that we can really concentrate on my preferences, in a selective and meticulous fashion, while finding frequent high-quality matches over the coming summer and if necessary beyond!
I'd like to see them speed up the process a bit while also finding the right women for me (and the right mates for everybody else!) Yet I am willing to take the time to get things right. I've gotten a lasting relationship or two out of my It's Just Lunch dating experiences but nothing that's proven for totally certain to be "final" and "forever" just yet. Here's to changing that in the months ahead. :) Good luck to all and let's find those soul mates!!!

In spite of being told at the time I signed up that there were new members who could be a good match for me, there do not seem to be many. I have been signed up for 6 months and have gone on 3 dates.

I was told that I would receive a gift card for my trouble but have not received anything. I believe all 3 dates are repeat customers of IJL and perhaps asked to participate so IJL can meet the requirements of my contract.

Working with Natasha in the DC IJL office has been a pleasure. As we have gotten to know each other, she has been able to 'tailor my dates' towards what I'm really looking for in a prospective partner. Natasha is courteous, professional, and hardworking. I recommend her as a matchmaking coach/agent for those singles out there having a hard time doing this on their own.

I feel encouraged that IJL will help me connect with the right man who will enter my life in a relationship that leads to marriage. After the coaching session I felt very positive and reminded myself to take one step at a time, not to be in a hurry, to enjoy the journey and not just have my eyes on the destination.

Obed my Dating Coach did a great job with selecting my first date. I was quite impressed with how much my date and I had in common, incredibly, she is more of a match on common interests than any previous significant other I've had! Whether the subject was food, entertainment, or philosophy, I thought I was talking to a sibling! We are planning our second date already. The bar is set high now, so a second match will be a welcome challenge to live up to the first; eager to see how this goes!

I think we turned a corner recently, and I really appreciate Ariel's role in following up with me and helping me get set up on a date with someone I am interested in.
