AJ's

We dined in here twice during our stay. Our rooms came with two compd breakfast and it was an impressive deal!The steak skillet is full of huge meaty chunks of steak and I opted for egg whites and it was a very hearty meal. I also grabbed a smoothie to go and that was very good. The next day I went for the breakfast burrito which comes with chips and salsa (my favorite) very good and again very hearty! Very bright and airy. It wasn't super busy at any time and our service was great. Defintely would come here even if we didn't stay at the hotel.

Great time for breakfast this morning. They have so many different options and the service was impeccable. I got the 2 eggs any style breakfast. It came with toast, choice of meat and potatoes. It was delicious! I even got hot tea and it came with a plethora of choices.

Overpriced. Try this place every year and it's the same. Go down the street for 1/2 the price. Staff is rude. Once again ordered breakfast. No toast or potato. Waitress offered fruit instead. Didn't tell me $4.99 up-charge! $25 bucks for coffee 2eggs fruit and 2 slices of bacon. Bye bye!! Done!!

Great local breakfast spot! Some of the best pancakes and avocado toast I've ever had. My husband I would come back to the hotel just for this breakfast, it as really good! The poached eggs on my toast were perfection. My ONLY COMPLAINT would be the rude hostess. She didn't smile or greet us, and when I asked for a table by the window, she rolled her eyes at me like she was SO annoyed she had to walk two extra feet to a different table. Really bad attitude. It would be one thing if the restaurant was packed and I took someone else's table in a different server's section but this wasn't the case. As someone who was in the service industry for over ten years, I've been a hostess, server, bartender and manager, this was pretty unacceptable. I truly believe certain people shouldn't be in hospitality and this person is one of them! Brenda was our server and actually apologized for her, apparently not the first time she's been rude to people. And Brenda was awesome! Super friendly! That's why I'm still giving this a 4 star review, because of Brenda and the amazing food. We'll be back, hopefully the rude hostess will be addressed

A perfectly cooked breakfast! Scrambled eggs are fluffy, creamy, and not over seasoned. Crispy tasty bacon. Breakfast potatoes with crispy outside and soft inside. Coffee is delicious and flavorful. This cook rocks! And Linda is the perfect serve. Thank you for getting my day off to a great start.

Wish breakfast at every hotel was this good! Try going to the front desk and asking if they have a promo package on breakfast because it so yummy here! We ordered egg Benedict with carnitas - the muffin was so fluffy and soft you wouldn't even know there was bread in there at all. Pancakes and French toast demolished by the kids. Service was friendly and attentive!

Should have taken pictures. We ordered breakfast two days in a row! Everything was freshly prepared, from the green smoothie to carnitas Benedict. Fruit plates were large and fresh with several fresh fruits. The fruit and yogurt parfait was huge and delicious. All room service was delivered quick and beautifully prepared. Thank you Crowne Plaza.

Wow!!! Traveling from California to the desert heat of Arizona is always better when you know you have a tasty meal in store. Chef W at AJs really enhanced our stay with a great menu. Our waitress was sweet and attentive. Everything you need for a great restaurant. Looking forward to our next stay.

We had a love-hate relationship with AJ's. First, let me say the food was wonderful. We were there for breakfast about 9 AM. When we got there, there was absolutely no one in the restaurant and only one table occupied by 2 people outside. The outdoor dining location was very pleasant altho we had some issue with flies.We went inside and they said to just pick a table we wanted outside, they would be right out. We did and it took a while for anyone to come see if we even wanted coffee. Times between table visits were long, and practically nonexistent. We ordered and my friend ordered an omelet and fruit instead of potatoes. Some of the best bacon and potatoes we've come across. Eggs were done just right. Little potato squares were nice and crispy on the outside and very flavorful. Sourdough toast was nicely done and there was just one large piece cut in half. It was the right amount of bread. My friend's fruit side came in a big bowl and her bacon and omelet were just right. She could only eat half and would take the rest home.So why the mediocre rating? The service was absolutely horrid! Fortunately we got a pot of coffee which was there when we wanted it and was always piping hot because I'm sure we never would have seen our server Guadalupe. She came with the bill and dropped it on the table, never asking if we wanted boxes. In looking over the bill, my friend noticed a $4 charge for the fruit-for-potatoes substitution. When she ordered, this was not mentioned. She went to get a box for her omelet leftovers and get the bill straightened out. When she questioned Guadalupe, she said there was a box on the menu. That was correct except it is small and says $2, not $4. My friend acceded that that was now obvious. However, Guadalupe said, well, if it's really all that big a deal to you, I'll take it off. Exact quote, BTW. It was just the attitude and the fact that she gave us such poor service that gives AJ's the mediocre rating. There were a total of 3 tables in the entire restaurant so she could not have been overworked.Bottom lined, great, great, reasonable priced and wonderfully prepared food. Poor, poor service. This can make a difference!

I don't post reviews often, but upon dining here while staying at Crowne Plaza, I received such excellent service that I was compelled to say something. I was greeted and sat promptly, and waited on by Brenda. She answered all the questions I had and even gave me suggestions and tips that ended up with me having one of the most amazing breakfasts i've ever had! Dulce was also amazing in assisting my family and I, and was even able to discount our meal when one of my sons didn't like his meal! We had such a pleasant experience here that it seems we will be staying here now every time we come to Arizona! Thank you guys!
