" Very disappointing! I ordered their sushi and was shocked to find the ingredients not fresh. I felt sick after eating there, which is unacceptable. I really hope my experience was just a fluke because I’ve heard good things. I wouldn't recommend it based on my visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an amazing experience at AJ's Kitchen! The sushi was incredibly fresh, and the staff were all very friendly. I highly recommend the spicy tuna roll, it had just the right kick. The miso soup was a nice touch and the complimentary green tea ice cream at the end was lovely. This has quickly become my go-to sushi spot. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved AJ's Kitchen! The sushi was excellent, with fresh ingredients and a variety of options. I also appreciated the proactive service. Our server was attentive without being intrusive. I left feeling satisfied and will be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" A mixed bag for my visit to AJ's Kitchen. There were some hits and misses. While the spicy tuna roll was great, the beef teriyaki fell a bit flat for me as it had lots of fat. Overall, decent experience but not sure I would rush back immediately. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a rather underwhelming dinner here. While the ambiance was nice, the food didn’t meet my expectations based on past reviews. The sushi was finely made but lacked authenticity. I appreciate the free soup, but overall, I left feeling disappointed. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my favorite sushi place! They have great deals on their rolls, and everything is always quick and fresh. The staff are friendly; they even remember my order! It’s a must-visit if you're in the area. I can’t recommend the eel roll enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who has traveled to Japan and experienced authentic sushi, I was eager to try AJ's Kitchen. They definitely have some authentic touches! The presentation of the food was superb and the ingredients seemed fresh. I particularly enjoyed the chirashi bowl. However, I felt that some of the rolls were geared more towards American tastes. Still, it’s a very enjoyable place! " (*Curated Review*)
