Aj's Family - Monroe

Was looking for a restaurant at lunch as most were closed on Monday's. Stopped at AJ's.they had a nice crowd which is a good sign. I ordered Hamburger steak with Onions and gravy along with mashed potatoes and gravy and a Greek salad. The food was delicious. Will definitely return again.

Was all that we expected and more! A true family run restaurant with emphasis on family. You can get anything you want at AJ's restaurant! Yes I did type that to Arlo Guthrie's Alice's Restaurant! I hope you try it you won't be sorry.

These are some really friendly people. The food is excellent except for the occasional overcooked underside of a breakfast biscuit. They are always super sweet when I pull into the drive thru so it's worth the thirty minute drive to get there. Reminds me of some great Greek owned places I've eaten at in New Jersey. I don't have photos to post but I'm a very picky eater with sensitive tastes when it comes to food. If I say it's good, trust me it's exceptional and a place I would gladly drive far to get to.

If you are looking for a cute little mom and pop restaurant, this it! While nothing is spectacular in presentation, they are very consistent and I 've never had anything I didn 't enjoy. The place is very clean and their tables and chairs are reminiscent of the 1950s or 60s, which is kind of the vibe you get from their menu. The menu definitely has a Greek Theme but they offer many items that are American . I had their spinach pie appetizer to start. it is like a large spanakopita and it 's amazing! It comes with tzatziki sauce that is also delicious. This thing is so big you can get it as a meal and it 's the same thing, just with a side! I highly recommend it because it 's very tasty. My partner had their special of the day which was a fish dinner and it was very good. Perfectly prepared. The only complaint he had was that the hush puppies were not particularly good. Not sure if they were frozen and reheated Or if it was just late in the day. Either way, if that 's the worst thing that I have to say about my experience, it 's not really any big deal. I had the Veggie Pita, which is something that I 've had there before when it was owned by someone else. My only suggestion would be that they add some cucumbers and a little more lettuce to make it worth the price. Having said that, it was very delicious. We will definitely be returning to try other items and I would recommend this location to anyone looking for a nice satisfying yet an expensive meal.

Staff was all friendly, very clean place, and the gyros and fried pickles we had were fantastic! We will definitely come back!
