Meatball sub was good but it doesn’t come on the rounded sub rolls unless you get a large fyi. Cool place, clean and friendly.

AJ’s is a fantastic spot! The food is consistently great, portions are generous, and everything tastes fresh and well-made. Service is friendly and efficient, and orders are always handled correctly. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or a full meal, AJ’s never disappoints. Highly recommend!

Very disappointed with the calzone. A thin, wet blanket of crust over the filling. So much cornmeal on the bottom it was like it was dropped in the sand at the beach.

Amazing southwestern sub. Got extra chicken but didn’t need to. Home made bread is so good!

AJ's Kitchen is one of those local gems that never disappoints. Whether you’re stopping in for a quick lunch or grabbing takeout for dinner, the food is always fresh, flavorful, and made with care. Their menu has a great variety—classic subs, Italian dishes, pizzas, salads, and more—and everything I’ve tried has been spot-on.
The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and the service is always quick. It has that small-town, family-run vibe that makes you want to keep coming back.
If you're in or around Wilmington and haven’t tried AJ’s yet, you're missing out. Easily a 5-star spot for great food and great people.
Unfortunately, today might’ve been my last day going to AJ‘s. I love the food. The owner is a very, very nice guy, but I just feel as if the service isn’t there. I picked up a pasta and asked if I could get a slice of cheese as well they said sure. 5-10 mins I paid for my pasta and slice and waited only for them to say there was a misunderstanding and I need to wait another 10 mins . I left didn’t even bother getting a refund because I am on my lunch break. Now I’m Gonna have to find a new lunch spot

They need to update their hours. No idea what they are because what they say on the phone isn’t what they are on the website or on google maps.
Was told they close at 830pm today, a Saturday. Website says 8, google says 9.

Was looking for a place to try and came across AJs Phantom Gourmet review. Got a large cheese pizza and a large meatball sub. The pizza was okay. A little on the greasy side, but the crust was good, sauce was a bit bland. My daughter liked it more than I did. The meatball sub was poor. Absolutely nothing like the reviews. Not on a braided roll. I didn’t see that you needed to ask for one with a large, but even assuming that I needed to request one, the size was puny for a large. The meatballs in the sun few and on the smaller size. Nothing like the portions you see in reviews. Sauce was mediocre, only redeeming quality was the cheese was toasted on the sub. For the size, price and taste, I’ll go up the street to Subway, as even they have a better and larger meatball sub.

My dad and I just had some slices, but they were delicious! Haven’t had a pizza shop slice this good in a while.
