Meatball sub was good but it doesn’t come on the rounded sub rolls unless you get a large fyi. Cool place, clean and friendly.

AJ's Kitchen is one of those local gems that never disappoints. Whether you’re stopping in for a quick lunch or grabbing takeout for dinner, the food is always fresh, flavorful, and made with care. Their menu has a great variety—classic subs, Italian dishes, pizzas, salads, and more—and everything I’ve tried has been spot-on. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and the service is always quick. It has that small-town, family-run vibe that makes you want to keep coming back. If you're in or around Wilmington and haven’t tried AJ’s yet, you're missing out. Easily a 5-star spot for great food and great people.
