    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.

    I did not request any particular table for the evening. Gerald had us seated in the back but my wife does not like the back, so Gerald moved us to the front by the windows. Thank you Gerald. He was very gracious. He even had a card signed by the entire staff for our 55th wedding anniversary. As usual the staff did an excellent job and the food was outstanding. Their steaks are really good steaks. All in all, we had a wonderful evening dining out at AJ’s. I had three of our grandchildren deliver 55 roses to our table to participate in our celebration. Thank you Gerald, looking forward to another event to celebrate at AJ’s Oldtown Restaurant in Homer, Alaska

    Without a doubt, AJ’s is the best restaurant; my son and grandchildren had a wonderful dinner. The wait staff was quite attentive and very pleasant. Dinner arrived shortly and we ate everything. Thank you.

    Awesome service by our waitress Jenine! Overall door was good but steaks pretty over cooked. The gentleman playing guitar and singing did a phenomenal job.
