Everything was top notch. When we were greeted, taken to our table, our server were all great and very nice. We were just not impressed with the food. Both our filets and chunks of Grisel in them that we could not eat and for that price and cut of meat, we should have been able to eat the whole thing. The mashed potatoes were bland. Had some flavor but not enough. Not rich and creamy. The asparagus was cooked to perfection. Dessert was very good as well. Would I recommend, probably not.

We had the halibut and bacon burger and they were both phenomenal. There was live piano player and it was the perfect setting. This was recommended by friends and it did not disappoint. We will definitely be back.

We had dinner on a Sat night at AJs. It is an older building, but apparently well maintained. We had two salads apps- the cranberry mixed green one was very good- and two filets. The meats was very well seasoned, and cooked to the correct temp. The bill was less than I imagined it would be, which is nice. There was a piano player, but it was nice background music, not too loud. I would highly recommend.

Made it to Homer for an anniversary trip and quickly sought out AJs for dinner on the strong recommendation of a friend. Excellent- did not disappoint. The staff was very friendly and accommodating and the food was out of this world. I had the filet and added scallops and the goat cheese butter topping. Top notch. Would highly recommend- does not disappoint-lives up to its already amazing reputation.
