AJ's Bar -N- Grill, Carbondale PA

This is exactly the kind of venue our area needs. Live music every week. The owner is committed to making Aj's a destination and I (a local) couldn't be happier. This is where I go when I go out.

Nice atmosphere, gr8 singers and friendly people. My first time. I will go back again. Fair prices. Enjoy

We went to the Tom Petty Tribune Band
It was awesome while it lasted!
The band stopped playing 15 minutes before they were supposed to be done!
They didn't start playing until 7: 20 pm and they were supposed to start from 7-10
It was very disappointing

Driving by the wife says stop in and sees about their pizza, I says fine lemme tell yous best pizza in town!

If you're looking for the old-school night out, this is the place! Great crowd and the service is great. Ordered a tray of square pizza to take home and it was delish! Sauce is sweet so, no heartburn from the tomatoes, Great balace of flavors. Great place! Will be returning!

Had an urge to just have a couple drinks and a tasty late night meal, and AJ's delivered perfectly. Had the Hot Bleu sauced wings and deep fried pierogis, and they were as good as can be. Crisp wings despite being sauced completely, and pierogis just deep fried to perfection. Bartenders were attentive and friendly as can be. I look forward to coming back to try more of the menu for sure, if the wings are anything to go by, since they're so hard to find done well. If a place can do them this good, betting the rest of the food is as golden.

Update - Food is as golden as can be like I assumed. Got the 'waurin burger', basically a chili cheeseburger. And it was beyond fantastic, the best burger I've had in quite awhile. Absolutely not a handheld food, needed a knife and fork for it, and nothing wrong with that, an absolute treat. Onion rings on the side, and they were completely perfect. No onions sliding out of their batter, just what you want out of them. Another round of chicken wings as well, and like before, completely delicious and damn near perfectly cooked, not soggy with sauce, somehow crispy while also coated in a delicious sauce.

I'll be definitely hitting this place up more often to try their other foods. Drinks are nice too, whiskey sour isn't much more than the pre-mixed stuff, but tasty enough, and absolutely given a generous portion. I don't know the amount of alcohol in comparison to the mix, but it tasted good and at the end of things, that's what matters to me.
