“We made reservations at AJ's for our 29th wedding anniversary. It was an incredible place to celebrate. The food was delicious and the service was outstanding.”

“I was on my way home, and craving a meatball sandwich. I drive right by this restaurant and thought “surely, they will have a meatball sandwich.” They did, and it comes with onion rings or waffle fries. I chose fries. When I opened the box, it looked so delicious, the right amount of cheese and the waffle fries were seasoned. The meatballs were absolutely delicious and the bread was soft. I’m not usually a fries person, but the seasoning was great, no ketchup needed. I will definitely be back to try more things off the menu. If the meatball sandwich was this good, I think I’m in for a great meal!”

“I order this from whenever our Air Force family lives. Best coffee ever!”

“I went here the other day and my gosh their staff is amazing! I had this sweet young girl take my order and you would’ve thought she’d have years of experience in customer service! I asked how long she had worked there and she said a little over a month. However they are training those kids they are doing amazing!”

“I go every week for the fish tacos. I love that they use cabbage instead of lettuce. Makes the taco taste AHHHH-maxing! Plus they are located in proximity to The Amusement park. Quick trot there & back to enjoy!”

“The only thing I wish is that they would set some sort of watch party for wnba Indiana Fever and Las Vegas Aces games and NBA finals. Hawk Does however throw the best Hawkeye football game watch partys!!!!”

“Josh was amazing!

“Music BINGO night is in full swing, and nothing beats 90’s country—always has been, always will be! So many unforgettable hits. Plus, the bartender is serving up drinks like a pro!”

“Great little nook for a drink with a friend on a weekday. Just had a quick drink. No food. Excellent service and friendly bartender. Did sir in the back area where they have karaoke on the weekends. Could use some love in that area and some cleaning. Overall, love this little place. Will be back!”

“The gal that took my to-go order was very nice and friendly, so 5 star customer service. The restaurant is clean and there is plenty of seating. And the chef did a FANTASTIC job in preparing and cooking the food. Their flatbread pizzas were so good! Give them a try if you haven't had their food yet.”

“We had a wonderful experience this morning! My grandson loved his strawberry banana smoothie. The staff was wonderful. Highly recommend stopping in for a refreshing drink!”

“I’ve been a regular at the Altoona Applebees location for about a year now. And to say the least because of two women it’s one of my favorite and most looked forward too outings every week, those two women being brooklynn and Nickie. These two light up the whole entire restaurant and are top notch when it comes to customer service and making everyone feel at home and more than welcome when visiting this location. Words wouldn’t describe how hard they work and how dedicated they are to keeping a smile on everyone’s face, which is what everyone looks for in a server and a bartender! All in all they deserve a raise and more praise than they already get!”

“Customer service was on point, and they didn't charge me for a couple more teriyaki sauces on the side. They were quick with my food and it was delicious. I regret not taking a pick of the food, but I dove right in it. It really was so good.”

“My husband and I are in the process of moving and have needed a large quantity of packing boxes and the folks at this location have been amazing with their efforts to assist us with regular and apple boxes over the past several weeks and continue to work with us to make our move more enjoyable!!!”

“When we got here there was only high tops. The hostess could see that we had small children and made a point of getting a booth cleared in 5 min to accommodate our family. Angeleah was a great waitress. Very patient with our children and attentive to us.”
