The perfect Manhattan was indeed perfect. The stuffed mushrooms were good, perhaps a little heavy with the cheese. French onion soup was perhaps the best thing as it was slightly different a bit spicy. The prime rib was cooked as ordered and a generous serving at that.

First time here. Salad excellent good blue cheese dressing. Large thick juicy bone-in pork chop was cooked perfectly & nice flavor, side of mashed potatoes. Wife had chicken Alfredo was excellent. Servers very friendly only issue had to request bread bowl and then a refill which never came, but didn’t need because main course serving size was very large. Overall, recommend for a nice meal, of course not cheap

The restaurant is tucked back on the first floor of the casino, dark intimate atmosphere. Food was quick and absolutely delicious. Service was top notch, waiter was tentative and polite. Prices were on the higher end but nothing I didn’t expect. Recommend.

Hostess Britt, bartender, Sawanda and Kinsey our waitress were just a few of the talented staff tonight. Hosted our yearly Xmas party. Very festive and entertaining evening. Place is elegant and tasteful a wonderful party room. Some of the steaks were a tad overdone but all in all a very wonder experience. Thank you Aj’s for a wonderful evening!!!

Nice atmosphere, dark, and pleasant. I took my wife in for a date, and we had a great time.

Recommend making a reservation here simply due to the high foot traffic that could arrive anytime. Adreyn did amazing job with us and is a great server. I had the NY Strip and split the spinach dip washing down with an smoked old fashion and an Seven Mile Merlot glass. So far the best place I have found in the whole state of Iowa!

Craig, At the Prairie Meadows gold club recommended AJ’s and I am very very impressed with his recommendation and their service. My server was awesome and the food was delicious. Sitting here writing this review makes me smile thinking about the food and service I got; I believe that’s all I really need to say.

I’ve had better beef jerky. $70 for Prime rib and a glass of Louis Martini Cabernet. Mediocre at best. Even the steak knife was dull. No offense to the waiter/bartender wannabe “Seth” still gave 20% tip but the prime rib sucked.

Not sure where to start. Three of us. One had a $45 ribeye. Medium rare. Came out done. Well done. One had chicken parmigiana. The pasta was tasteless and the chicken was like leather. I had chicken fettuccine. Tasteless and leather chicken. Martinis were ghastly.
