I’ve been eating at AJ’s diner for 33 years and it is a perfect breakfast and lunch place. Everything is wonderful, but I don’t care for the home fries that they switched to years ago. Overall it’s a 5 star diner!!
I love AJs I have been going there since I was a child people wait around the corner on. Saturday and Sunday just to get in everything's great they have silver dollar pancakes the best omelettes three different types of toast and every drink that you could want they have the paper there for you. I really just their home Fry's I could eat there every day 😜 they are on the first floor they have handicap accessibility the waitresses and staff our friendly any environment is friendly and the cooks are great. This is really a five-star place and you won't regret it.
Waitress bent over backwards to make sure everything was perfect! Loved the home fries and all the breakfast was great !
Best breakfast ever! Everything is made from scratch...homefries,muffins to delicious baked beans. The staff is so friendly, definitely our new breakfast spot. 😋😋
Looking for an old school breakfast joint? This is the place. My first time in and i was pleasantly surprised. The service was quick and the staff was friendly. The food was really delicious and the portions were plentiful. They only take cash, but they do offer an ATM just in case you come in without cash. There was no wait on a Friday morning. There are lots of seating inside and the turnaround was super quick. I will return!
One of the best restaurants I've been to in rhode island definetly a must. Do not leave with out trying this place. I grabbed the biggest omelet they have and It delivered such a great choice (big meal) fyi thank you keep up the great service.
Fantastic diner food with very generous portions and very fast service. Items are reasonably priced and and the atmosphere is that of a typical no frills diner. Payment is cash only but there is an at inside with a $1.75 service fee.
Absolutely perfect all the time. Food is consistent, the staff is amazing and friendly, a wonderful environment. Closest restaurants to perfection. I wish I could eat here breakfast lunch and dinner everyday. And the food portions are big.
Prices are good. They give you alot of food. Friendly staff
