Our Process
It all starts with a phone conversation where we get to know you and what you’re looking for in a potential partner. From there, our professional matchmakers hand-select and coordinate your date. We’ll plan all the details of the date for you, so you can sit back and enjoy yourself. After your date, we ask for feedback so we can further refine your matches. If it worked out —even better!
Dating doesn’t have to be complicated
Whether you're too busy to search, tired of swiping, or just not meeting the right kind of people, It's Just Lunch can streamline your dating journey.
We want to know about you, your hobbies, your dating history, and what you're looking for in a partner.
We carefully hand-select your matches and tell you why we think the two of you will hit it off.
From scheduling to reservations, our matchmakers handle the details of your first date.
After your date, tell us what you liked and didn't like about your date so we can fine-tune our matching process.
Having fun isn’t really a step in our process, but we hope to make it a big part of everything you experience with It’s Just Lunch.

RICK & CHRISTINA
“It was super easy because It’s Just Lunch arranged the dates. All I had to do was get ready and meet at the restaurant. And unlike online dating, I felt that my dates were interested in meeting quality people, not one-night stands. Your matchmaker calls you up with a match and then gives you the details of the date. All you have to do is show up and have fun!”
