"Everything about this place (except the staff) was a mixed bag. I had a chicken parm sub, a chicken parm calzone, and a pepperoni pizza.The chicken parm sub, the chicken was a little too juicy, strange problem I know, but the cutlets were too thick, so they held a lot of moisture and made the bread soggy. Their marinara is pretty thin too, not my favorite, but that's definitely a preference kind of thing. The bread is all fresh baked, and the parts that weren't soggy were absolutely fantastic.The pizza was nice and crispy, fairly thin. good balance of the cheese sauce and greasiness from the pepperoni. But somehow it just didn't have a lot of flavor. It wasn't awful, it just wasn't great. I mostly blame the sauce, it just didn't have a lot going on with it.The calzone..... well it was inedible by the time I got home. 100% a me thing, but I've got a lot of sensory issues when it comes to food. I hate super greasy stuff on my fingers, and there are certain goopy textures that will induce a gag reflex on me. They do the classic italian style calzones as opposed to your typical pizza place style. It looked great. But they put some garlic butter or oil or something on top of it. So I already don't want to touch the thing, but I used a fork to try and eat it anyways. The top of it has such a thin layer of dough (which is usually a great sign with calzones), which you normally expect to be slightly crispy and chewy. But the butter or oil or whatever it is just turned that thin dough into a nasty soft mushy goop that I just couldn't eat.I really, really wish that they would ask if customers want that, because it isn't really something I expect on a calzone and it looked so great."

Steak and cheese tasted funnySteak has a going bad taste. NOT the best steak sub like many are saying. Pizza was blah, no flavor. Fries and stix were good though.

I had a wonderful experience at AJ's thanks to Rebecca Hughes at the counter. She was incredibly kind and absolutely stunning in every way. I highly recommend requesting her service during your next visit!

Place has majorly gone downhill lately. Just go to dominos down the street in Reading and pay half the price.. Meat always taste old expired and rotten yet the owner will set his prices insanely high.. Staff is always nice though.. Owner needs to do better ! View menu

The restaurant delivered the wrong order, and the chicken had an unpleasant aftertaste, likely due to the oil not being changed. When I called to address the issue, I was left on hold for a long time, and when I finally spoke to someone, they were rude. I would not recommend this place.

I have been ordering from AJ's religiously for like 6 years (At least that's how long I've been working next door I haven't tried everything, but can definitely recommend what I have tried especially their eggplant it is my favorite thing from there, and reminds me of my Mimi's eggplant (SUPERB! The grilled chicken wrap is amazing too.. I always add provolone and a side of ranch for dipping, then ask them to grill it (like a burrito the pizza is really good too. I have never had a complaint and they are super friendly. It's like Cheers when I walk in because literally they all know my name including the cook that should tell you how often I frequent the place! 5 stars all around!
