First time trying fried cheese curds, did not disappoint! The burger was juicy and the fries were well-seasoned. Was also told that the onions were caramelized with local beer! Had a great time visiting!

I have heard really good things about the burgers from here, and I finally tried one last night. I would not eat here again. Granted, I had my food delivered, and I know that plays a factor in this, but I also know that's not the only factor here. I ordered the Medusa burger. I'm assuming it was named that for the pile of onion strings that are supposed to come on it and that were missing from mine. The burger was so soggy by the time I got it, which was only about 10 minutes after it was picked up. I've had burgers with similar ingredients delivered from other restaurants, and they were never soggy. This was the messiest burger I've ever eaten in my life, because of how soggy it was. The bun was just not right for this burger, and it was a very bizarre tasting bun too. I did not care for it in taste or texture or not holding up with the ingredients. The tater tots were also soggy and fell apart as soon as I picked them up. They were very bland as well. I asked for a side of bbq sauce for them, and they gave me such a small amount that it was only enough for about half of the tots. In addition, the packaging was really strange. There was no box or container. The burger was wrapped and then placed in the bag and then the tots were just in a fry bag inside of the bag. I'm sure this was a big contributor to why it was all so soggy. Also, the amount of money they are charging for such a small amount of meat was crazy. I can get a larger burger for half the price from Kopp's...and I would enjoy it more. Overall, I cannot recommend the burgers here. You're better off going to Sobelman's.

Came in hour before they closed. Seated right away and ordered quickly. Got the classic with everything and pickle and fries. Came out quick. Pretty good, but also pretty salty. Would maybe come back to try a different burger and the cheese curds. Nice quick late night meal. Pickles were great.

I've heard good things about this place and bookmarked AJ Bombers a few months ago. We finally had the chance to visit the restaurant/bar during the extended July 4th holiday. The burgers are yummy however the patties are a bit anemic. I should've ordered a double honestly. Fries are not spectacular but the tots my husband ordered as his side were super crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I would go with the tot side if you order a burger.The atmosphere is very laid back. It's a casual sports bar and I love the bomber airplane gimmick where they load up the planes with peanuts and fly them tableside to customers. Overall, a fun place to go with your friends or family. Parking in this area is also streetside and metered. During lunch it can get a little busy and you may have to wait around for a table.

Good curds, good burgers (don't sleep on that peanut butter bacon thing--it's absolutely delicious), good service. The burgers are a manageable size--not giant, not skimpy; you won't feel hungry when you leave but you're not going to be bursting at the seams either, which is refreshing. I liked that your choice of sides includes a fruit cup. I was super sick of fried, heavy food by the end of my week in MKE and I appreciated that fresh little fruit bowl. The wait was long--the place is small---but I loved my burger and I'll go back.

Don't sleep on AJ Bombers for Bloody Mary's! The bacon-wrapped strip of cheeseburger on top is delectable. The rest of the meal was also great! We enjoyed a Classic AJ (sans bun to make it gluten free) and a Milwaukee Burger, obviously with tater totsOne of my favorite spots in MKE!

A local friend recommended a great lunch, and he nailed it! Street parking was easy, and it was a fun overall experience.I enjoyed their schtick of roasting peanuts and then forwarding them via their interior "drop zones," a series of tubes that deliver the peanuts to your table without a server attending to it. The cool interior includes replica bombs and cool artwork. Their stools are very cool, with unique bottoms.Our server was brand new, and she rocked it. The restaurant manager was friendly and helpful.I loved my Classic AJ Burger. It was tasty and well prepared, and adding bacon to a big burger was a good idea. I also enjoyed the tater tots.

We stopped by this place after a fun afternoon at the Bucks game. The staff are friendly and welcoming. We were seated quickly as there weren't many people there at 2pm on Saturday. It started to fill up as we were seated though.I was sad they didn't have Spotted Cow beer on tap, which is one of the few beers I like. Apparently there's a shortage! However, we were recommended another New Glarus ale called Moon Man, which was served in a bottle--a little bitter but pretty similar to my classic favorite. I think I would've enjoyed it chilled a bit more. We of course ordered some cheese curds to go with our beer for a classic Wisco experience. I'm definitely a self-proclaimed curd snob since I went to UW Madison, but these were delicious--hot, flavorful, crispy on the outside, gooey in the middle, and of course squeaky. It was a good portion size, and the sauce was also perfect.Great time! Highly recommend

We both got drinks and burgers! I enjoyed the bbq Medusa burger! I got the mint Oreo boozy shake but the server told me they didn't have Oreos so they put chips ahoy cookies instead. She also warned me about the peppermint schnapps which I realized I did not like. The food was good and ambiance of the place is always a vibe as well!

Fantastic food and fun atmosphere. Service was just ok. Typical bar feel, but with a fun pin-up girl spin.
