    We had the most wonderful birthday dinner at AJ’s. Each meal was cooked to perfection, the service was excellent and the birthday ‘boy’ left content with memories of delicious food and delightful staff making his evening extra special.

    Likely the best take steak we have ever had, and we've been around awhile.:) The chains don't hold a candle to it. And the ambience is just right -- real and friendly. If you like good steak you will not be disappointed.

    AJs is a great place to have dinner and they have live entertainment also. The only reason I marked it down was we were told by the host that a certain singer we liked would be back in two weeks time and he wasn’t. That was disappointing. Food and wait staff were excellent. We will go back but will double check the entertainment.

    AJs is our go to place for excellent food, wine and service. No matter what the occasion, you will not be disappointed! I hope the fried brie comes back on the menu...this was outstanding in the past, and my favorite appetizer. Everything on the menu is delicious and well presented!

    For a steak house AJs fell very short on the quality of the beef. The ribeyes were tough and the sirloins had the most bizarre texture for a steak. I think the sirloin had been ground up and reformed (mealy texture) The rock fish and be burgers were good. Drinks were reasonably priced and tasty. Our waitress was nice and handled our group size of 10 well. Sorry but I won’t be going back.
