    Food and Service were great. Extra charge of 3% for Restaurant Fee (which I assume was for using a credit card was not posted, which is a violation of current law regarding that particular charge.

    An outstanding Valentine's dinner - absolutely loved the Winter Rainbow Panzanella Salad topped with grilled shrimp. The crispy calamari appetizer was also delicious and the Key Lime Martini’s are always on point at AJs.

    We always enjoy a well prepared meal at AJ's. A great place for a sit down dinner with the family or to take a seat at the bar for full drink and meal service. The atmosphere is refreshing and relaxing, the best of both worlds as a casual fine dining experience.

    This was a special event for New Year's Eve. Our server Katie was great. The food was excellent. It just seemed to take a long time. Not a huge problem, and I understand starting up a restaurant for just one night is a huge undertaking. We enjoyed the night and really enjoyed the food.

    Hello Mark! We are sorry for the wait and we appreciate your understanding. We will be back open for the season March 11.

    Food was excellent and reasonably priced. Waiter was good. Only complaint was a water glass with a slight lipstick stain. It was rectified as soon as it was brought to the attention of the waiter.

    once again an outstanding meal and service on a busy nite and with what seemed to be a crew a bit understaffed.

    Your staff helped make my birthday even more special by taking a request from family who could not be there and for being so kind and courteous. We always dine at AJ's when visiting the island, and again the meal was just top notch! Thank you from the bottom of my heart and we can't wait to come back again!
