One of my favorite places for lunch. Large outdoor patio seating for food selections from the outdoor grill (burgers, BBQ and more) and indoor selections (daily hot lunch, pizza by slice, incredible salad bar, delicious soups, sandwiches and sushi). The salad bar has 3-4 types of lettuce, many fresh vegetables, some exotic vegetables, meat selections (ham, chicken) and more. Typically 6-10 dressings to choose from. Usually $10-15 gets you a great meal and a drink (wide selection of teas and more).Friendly staff- Karla at the bakery is so sweet! Also they tend to rotate soups and pizza slices and hot meals of the day so if they don't have your favorites today they likely will have them tomorrow.

Disclaimer: This review is specifically in regard to the take-home Holiday package experience. Service: Ordered a week in advance, had to sign up for a time slot, then waited in line for an hour to pick up. When we got to the front of the line, they were out of rolls, so we didn't get some of the items we paid for. We had to go to another grocery store to buy rolls. Preparation: The instructions said the items take between 10 and 40 minutes to reheat--it took and hour and a half and we had to crank up the oven for an hour of that time. "Reheat" is actually a misnomer as both the sweet potatoes and green beans had not been cooked through to begin with. The sweet potatoes in particular were rock hard and in giant pieces--we had to cut them down and they took the full 1.5 hours to cook. Quality: Turkey and gravy were good, mashed potatoes and stuffing were dry and bland, sweet potatoes were bland, green beans were bland, apple pie was inedible--the crust was bitter and unpleasant. Value: This was the worst Thanksgiving dinner I have ever eaten, was NOT ultimately any easier than it would have been to cook it ourselves, and still cost $240. Never. Again. AJ's has some serious work to do to earn my trust back and in addition to this review I will be calling management to let them know how disappointed I am.

I had one of their pizza slices from their food counter. A lot of cheese and pepperoni but hardly any sauce! This made it have no real flavor and hard to chew as the cheese started to get cold. Not impressed

Always takes the pressure off of hours cooking in kitchen. Only takes a couple hours to reheat and serve

AJ's is a hit or miss for me. I have had some of the most wonderful baked goods and food from their deli. But other nights I will go in and purchase something. I can't even eat. It is so dry or past its prime. I would be curious to know how long the food sits out in the deli before they replace it. Overall, it's a very nice grocery store and I recommend it's bakery, it's deli take with a grain of salt.

This store kind of reminds me of a Whole Foods on a smaller scale. They have lots of lovely specialty gourmet items but be ready to spend some bucks. You can even get what's considered the world's finest salmon- Copper River salmon for $59.99/lb which is not something you can find at other grocery stores. My favorite thing about the store is their flower section, both real and fake. Their fake flowers look so real and very beautiful that it's worth the spendy prices. The pastries are really good here and I appreciate they have a free water station which is very thoughtful for the customers. Checked out their individual pizza slices but they looked burnt and unappetizing. The ready to eat food section didn't look as inviting as they have on prior visits.

Very terrible woman working at the cafe/bakery/drink counter. My friend ordered a large cherry drink, and they wound up making her a small by mistake. She informed then of the size being wrong, and a very mean worker (short, light brown hair up in a bun on her head) took the drink, dumped it into a large cup, and just added more ice. What the heck?? This isn't a Starbucks where espresso shots cost extra. My friend was like "That is just ice" and she gave us a dirty look and walked away. This woman is consistently working at this area and is always giving customers attitude. The next time we will be sure to get her name and include it in these reviews, as she gives AJs a terrible impression. Luckily another worker hears our pleas and came to help, was understanding, and fixed our drink.

You can't order cakes anymore?AJ's has the most delicious cakes ever, but there's no way to plan anymore. I have walked in the last 3 times and all the cakes were gone. The bakery said they don't make them every day and it's first come first serve, or you can order one at least 48 hours in advance. So I called the other day to order one well in advance, seems there are never any available. They said they stopped their ordering policy as of that day. So now it's only walk-in and take your chances. I ask when they'll have fresh cakes and they can't even tell you when because they never know when the baker is coming in. I am just super disappointed as there is now no way to plan or assure you'll get a cake, let alone a flavor that you want. It's just a different story EVERY time I go in.

I cave get enough of going here and looking at all of the pastries, the pizza is good as well as the Kale salad just to name a few items that I love from here. The staff are always friendly as well!!! Lots of parking and this location just happens to be in one of my favorite areas to hang in since there's alot that I do in this area.

BEST BURGER YOU EVER HAD! The outdoor patio is where my entire staff frequents when Sandy is there. She has the absolute best customer service and creates a wonder atmosphere with her great music, if the Bistro manager is cooking then the pizza inside is always great!!!! Tea is the best however the lines at bakery can be long
