Taylor was an excellent and attentive waitress. Our bartender Erin made the best drinks! The manager, Rick Waters, checked on us to make sure we were satisfied and treated us like family. We love going to AJ’s!

The overpriced food tasted horrendous - the meat in Italian sandwich tasted off, as if it had gone bad, and did not have any cheese or condiments mentioned on the menu. Dry pretzel and flavorless cheese sauce. The waitress was kind, and quick with service, but that and the ambiance were the only good thing about this place - avoid the food at all costs

We invited our daughter, her husband and two little girls (ages 2 & 4) to join us for dinner 1/11/2024. We were seated quickly and provided with fresh, warm bread and crackers and crayons for the children. The children’s menu offered a nice variety vs. just the usual hamburgers, french fries and chicken fingers. The fruit plates were very attractive and delicious. My fav item is the Worlf of Golf Village mixed green salad which has beets, strawberries, goat cheese, quinoa, sliced almonds and is dressed lightly with a citrusy balsamic dressing. I love to add grilled salmon to this salad and it is quite sufficient as a meal. One of the chef’s specials was Sirloin tips served in delightfully flavored mushroom risotto garnished with grilled cherry tomatoes. It was so good! One of our guests enjoyed a Smash burger and a flight of beers which were all good. Lastly, my husband enjoyed another chef special: Shrimp and fusilli in a delectable butter sauce. Our food was all served hot and we had a great time! Jordan took GREAT care of us. She was most attentive and patient. I highly recommend this restaurant that is open to the public - even though the community is gated. During the day it is a casual golf club with a beautiful view of the golf course where you can watch the sunset. At night the atmosphere is more sophistocated with candle light, a fireplace inside and fire pits outside where one can linger with a drink and enjoy socializing.

Horrible experience. Never had good service. Went in today and the waitresses were watching TV. Waited 10 minutes and no one ever came to our table. There was also two other tables that weren’t receiving

This is.a beautiful venue. However, none of the owners are ever there. They bought this place and do not know how to run it. Drink prices are so expensive....especially when every place in the area offer a Happy Hour and reduced drink prices. Food prices are out of line too. Just because this is in a golf community, doesn't mean they can charge outlandish prices!! There wasn't anyone the place and it is like that most nights. You sure don't need a reservation. They need someone to manage the place that has restaurant experience and who realizes you need to offer incentives, (like reduced drink prices see nights) Can get a $3 beer at nearby restaurant on Mondays. $5 absolute martinis on Thursday, Places are packed. This place will close again and they are only open now, 3 days week.

Parking: Parking is easy and plentiful because no one is there!!

Unfortunately I decided to try AJ’s again after a lackluster previous dinner. I took my wife and daughter for dinner on a Saturday night for 6:30 reservations. The place was all but empty. We started with some appetizers, I ordered the chicken wings. The order came out pretty quickly, but the wings were lukewarm and almost cold on the inside. I sent them back and some time later received a piping hot order of wings. They were ok, I wont say they tasted off but they were just not very good tasting. I ordered Chicken Parmesan for my meal. What a received was large flat piece of chicken that more closely resembled cardboard than anything edible. It would not be much of an exaggeration to say the chicken was as dried out and chewy as the chicken jerky strips I feed to my dogs. It was literally the worst chicken I have ever tried to eat. I did not send it back, but I did let the wait staff know after I paid that the kitchen should be made aware of how bad the food was. I waited until after I paid, I was not looking for free food, and our waiter was great, I just wanted the manager to know how bad the food was. And since this was second bad experience in a few months , I also decided to post a review to warn others.

Nice place on golf course. Good food. Nice drive through golf neighborhood to to get there.

I agree with a few posts that the quality of the food being served at AJ's has changed, not necessarily for the good. Went for dinner last night. 3/4 of us ordered Crab cake dinner. Unfortunately we all agreed, no flavor at all. Very disappointed in our meals. Husband ordered "prawns". Just shrimp, served over very soupy mashed potatoes. The dish DID NOT even look appealing. Our appetizer charcuterie board was excellent, as were our drinks. Very short handed, service wise. We will return for apps and drinks but will probably skip meals.
