Great pizza! Nice crunch and the topping are excellent, good quality and abundant. My favorite was the Mediterranean (fig and prosciutto) it gave a sweet and savory vibe. But the Yolanda's with the fresh tomatoes and garlic was great too. Service was very nice, just one dude slinging pizza but he brought it to us in between making to go orders and made sure we had everything we needed. Not much sitting inside. read more

Pizza has an overall good flavor, though I enjoy a more authentic dough. The large variety of toppings is a definite plus. Service was prompt and pizza was popping hot straight from the brick oven. Some of the better tasting pizza in the area. read more

What happened to the great pizza you used to serve? Today, I was served two pepperoni slices that were reputed to be fresh out of the oven. They were barely lukewarm. The attendant there seemed to have better things to do at 11:30, prime time for Lunch customers. Although the place had no other customers. He motioned to the oven, then explained the slices just came out of the oven anyway. Pfft! My fault for listening. Just a very blah experience. read more

"Truly just so, so awful." - my wife "I wouldn't even know what to say. Actual cardboard. Inedible." - my mother-in-law "This was just really terrible. It's like eating something that's not food." - me Now, we're not trying to be unfair here. People just need to know. The spicy sausage topping was very good, but the actual pizza it sat on was absolutely inedible. We literally trashed an entire pizza's worth. We won't even bother addressing the wings. The crust has to change or this place needs to go out of business. Burnt, zero rise, zero flavor. read more

They've been serving pizza with that cardboard crust for years. Some complain about it and for some reason, others go back for more. Does AJ's read the reviews? Worst crust on the Seacoast. Please get better crust! read more

Today we ordered a large pepperoni Pizza that had no flavor the crust was like cardboard, it was the most flavorless pizza we ever had. We also order one of their speciality pizzas, homemade sausage , red pepper and red onion, everything was diced very small .There was nothing special about this pizza. The grilled romaine greek salad was very wilted. We will not be back.!! read more

Best pizza in this area by far incredibly consistent and all the guys that work are here very kind.

Another great pizza at AJs. We are local and usually have lunch down town, AJs is a frequent stop for lunch or dinner and the outside seating is ideal for our pups who are usually with us. read more

Best thin crust pizza around. From the plain cheese to the special Bianco oil base oregano basil red pepper flakes mozzarella ricotta parmesan pecorino and pine nuts. The owner Josh is super awesome just like his food. Oh and don't forget to bring home some homemade caesar dressing guarantee you won't be disappointed. + Kudos Josh - can't wait to come back read more

Gluten free crust is horrible.way too thin with crispy hard edges( cooked too long maybe) I was visiting from out of state. Dominos alot better.way overpriced and poor quality read more

This review is just for the wings. I didn't get the pizza here so I'm not sure how that is but I did make a substantial order of wings cause that's what I was craving. I got 20 lemon pepper wings with a side of blue cheese dressing. Their wings were large and tasty and much better than the restaurants in the area. I was really satisfied with my order and was full after finishing the wings. Maybe next time, I have to try the pizza as well. One thing though is they close early so need to order early dinner and not a late dinner from here. read more

Absolutely awful. The dough is cardboard, the chicken tastes like it came out of a can, and it had a pound of cheese on it. This place used to be sort of decent and now it looks and tastes like a 5 year old made the pizza. It was absolutely dead on a Friday night at 6pm - which should tell you everything you need to know. read more

We were bouncing around Portsmouth the other night and had a hankering for wings. But, we wanted dry rubs not all that sugary sauce you get at all the big chains. So we out word out on the FB Seacoast Eats page asking for the BEST. And the 1st response we got was AJ's in Kittery. We chose the Jamaican Jerk rub and we also split a GRILLED Greek salad. The grilled salad was tasty as hell. But the wings .... HOLY CRAP! They bribe their wings overnight. You can tell. Then they crisp them up with that dry rub. PERFECTION! I KID YOU NOT! I never write reviews on this thing. Maybe once a year. They get the review for 2022! If you are anywhere north of BOSTON and you want some awesome wings? Head to Kittery, Maine. I'm betting these guys get a ton of business from the Navy Shipyard. And you know those guys don't frequent crappy joints. Give these guys some business! You'll thank me. We'l be back!! read more

We ordered lunch from AJ's for delivery. The cheese pizza was meh. Does the job but not much more. The crust was really a weak spot, not good at all. We also had a roast beef sandwich on rye. It was okay, nothing special. The horseradish Mayo had no hint of heat at all. Cinnamon Dough balls for dessert are the pizza dough fried. Not a bad thing, but also suffers because the dough isn't great. I probably wouldn't recommend. read more

My daughter was visiting from Oregon and because we were visiting the butcher across the street ("Meat", which is awesome in itself) and hungry, we tried AJ's. What a find. Wood-fired, thin crust pizza, slightly charred on the bottom, just as I like it. My daughter kept repeating during the meal, "why isn't there anything like this in Portland? Why can't they make such good pizza?'. I don't have the answer for that, but there's certainly great pizza on this coast; right here. Did I mention that the staff is friendly, and the same high quality as the food they serve? Highly recommended. read more

After having enjoyed many AJ's pizzas in the past, I can now only say that if you want to order from a place that can't figure out how to turn their online ordering system off when they're busy, are stressed to the point of taking an adversarial tone when they call to say they can't fulfill your order (while telling you that they don't have one of the items you ordered anyway), tell you in demeaning terms that they don't have time to deal with you when you wonder why they're being so curt with a loyal customer, and then hang up -- this is the place for you. read more

Food and service here were great. My wife and I stopped by for lunch and had pizza. The pizza tasted fantastic! The ambiance was nice and quiet, we were the only ones in the restaurant. I would recommend to anyone looking for a good pizza meal. read more

I should say that the Cajun fries are quite tasty but the Signature Steak burger was way under seasoned and bland. The smell of woodsmoke out side was amazing and drew us in but the food inside was a let down. Three burgers and three sodas was a $62.00 bill. I thing that's a little hefty for a quick lunch. read more

Found this place after another another was closed and very glad I did. Great food all around. Ordered pizza, bread bowl and tenders and was very pleased with all the food. Pizza was good size, great flavor and cooked perfectly. The bread for my bread bowl was delish. The tenders are REALLY good size and very moist. The staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. A great find if you are I the area. read more

Was told my order would be delivered in an hour, after waiting 2 hours, I politely called to see if it was still coming, They said "it's not it way, don't call again" very rude folks. I'm not impressed at all. read more

Customer service was rude. Friend and myself did not feel welcomed. Did not appreciate the environment, I get it's busy but also we're customers supporting your business. read more

Worst pizza and worst service! Had a mess up with a pizza and the staff could have cared less.

Called for pick up. Was told 30 to 45 minutes, showed up 50 minutes later. They only started making the order 10 minutes after I got there, and I'm still here, waiting for the rest of it 1 hr and 25 min after calling. It might have taken less time if they didn't have to deal with another customer who ordered delivery and never received it, who had ro drive here and get their money back. read more

AJ's Wood Grill Pizza - This was the "salad" we ordered. They forgot they'd actually completed half my order, and left the bag in a warm oven. - Pizza Near Me - Kittery, Maine

AJ's is our go to place for the best pizza, sandwiches and a glass of wine or beer. The burgers are amazing - show up on a Monday for true love. The simple Cabernet is a winner!

We've been coming in for years and it's become an institution. Sit back and enjoy free range meat and organic produce with your yummy food.

We have a lot of good food and pizza in Austin, Texas. We are also world travelers and frequently Italy. I can honestly say that the House Made Sausage Pizza is some of the best pizza we've had! Service is personable and friendly. Good local craft beer offerings as well. Relaxed and ample outdoor patio seating as well. read more

Went there to order some pizza, and not only were we ignored when we came in, but the man that tried to take our order was extremely hostile and rude. If I could give zero stars I would. Also seemed very unhygienic and the crusts were precooked. Decided to walk out and was happy with the decision to go somewhere else. read more

REALLY FREAKING GOOD PIZZA For reference, I'm from NY and I'm a pizza snob. Go here! It's delicious! And the vibe is cool! read more

Stopped in on a Friday afternoon around 2:45 pm because our original destination was unexpectedly closed until 3:30 pm (indicated with a sign on the door). My friend I and were starving so decided to order 2 slices of pizza to hold us over. We shared a slice of mushroom and spinach and a slice of chicken with zucchini. It took between 10 and 15 minutes to prepare. About 4 tables were outside so as I waited outside, my friend waited inside for the pizzas. She said it appeared they made each slice from scratch as opposed to the slices being pre-made and waiting. The topping were plentiful, fresh and tasty; however, parts of the crusts seemed a little under cooked. We both prefer crispy crust and we think these crusts would have been had they stayed in the oven a bit longer. Very friendly staff and our slices were a good carry-over but we have had better. read more

The grilled salad is unique and delicious and their pizza is always good. You can ask for it partially cooked and finish it at home to your liking. High quality ingredients read more

WORST BY FAR. Frozen pizza is way better than this "Tourist trap". Uncooked toppings, soggy without flavour pizza, few pieces of prosciutto. I ordered well/well done and the pizza came uncooked with tomatoes on top ready to do a fresh salad. What a disappointment!! Credit to the lady who took my order over the phone she was nice and accomodating but I think the pizza maker hates the owner. read more

Great topping options. Very unique and tasty af! We got two gluten free pizzas and a fig, goat cheese, and caramelized onions without the prosciutto on regular crust. Everything was delicious and the gf crust was a bit better than your average gf crust! Delivery was only an hour on a Friday night prime time and friendly to our hotel. read more

The guy who takes the orders over the phone is always very rude. He intentionally screws up orders and should realize he is in a customer service business and should shut the f up and take pizza orders. Not my fault you work there bruh. Get a better attitude or take some classes to get a trade. read more

I really don't like to give bad reviews, especially with how difficult it is now. But, this was that bad. The "crust" was clearly precooked. Then a small as in very small amount of tomatoes sauce was added. The cheese was good. The taste was not good at all. In fact it all just slid off the prepared crust. Reminds me of the Boboli crust you get from the grocery store with sauce and cheese added. We just threw the mess out. I hope this was just a fluke. read more

I'm usually not that big of a fan of pizza myself, but my husband heard about this place from a friend so we decided to stop by. I'm SO happy we did! We have went back and ordered delivery from here since. Their pizza is the best I've ever had. Their wings are also so good. They also have their own Ranch that I've never tasted anything like it. It's truly so good. As soon as they open back up I'm going back! read more

I ordered two large pizzas, 10 hot wings with ranch and a Caesar salad. The first pizza looked and tasted amazing. The second Pizza looked bland and undercooked. The wings arrived covered and soaking in the ranch dressing and the salad was fine. I've had AJ's many times and this was the first time I felt like......meh. Not sure what happened. read more

Rude server. No parking. False advertising. Pizza by the slice- false advertising if it's a 2 slice minimum?!? pizza came out looking like Elios frozen pizza. Would never go back. Gross and I am pretty sure it's illegal to have a sign that says by the slice and then you can only order if you pay for two slices?! I am shocked at how bad that pizza was. It would have been cheaper to buy a small pizza. Also, no gloves while they man handled the crust that was sitting out . Not sanitary at all..... read more
