    Bacon Cheeseburger
    Henry F.

    Can't believe I haven't tried this place until now, but the hours are weird and I guess the location of it isn't ideal but hell, the burger is damn good. Easily the best tasting burger here in oxford and the atmosphere of the restaurant is fantastic. Was so close to giving this 5/5 but like I say I'm a tough critic and $18 for a burger, fries, drink, and an assume revolving iPad tip is Five Guys pricing. Will definitely get another burger from here again.

    Drobe by and saw this place. Time to check it out!

    Amazing! Stopped in after surgery this morning. Normally you order at counter then find a seat. Rachel was our server and just had us sit since I was on crutches and took our order from the table to make it a easier on me. I thought that's was the sweetest thing to go above and beyond to help out. Definitely not something she had to do. Very attentive and pleasant. Drinks never went low, hamburgers were hot, fast and delicious. Sweet potato fries were on point and didn't even need to be dipped in any sauces. Everything was delicious but what really made the day was the service, especially in this time. Rachel made us feel so welcomed and cared for. I can't wait to go back on my next visit to Oxford. I can't say thank you enough for such a wonderful experience and good food.

    Great food! Good prices. Service was great and fast. Loved my grilled cheese with bacon and fried pickle wedges! So good I came back the next day and got the same thing again. I will be a regular and look forward to trying some different items.

    Good food and service. The burgers and onion rings were both excellent. Even though it's an old building it was very wheelchair friendly.

    If you want a good burger and fries (or onion rings) this is the place for you. Burgers are homemade and always made correctly.

    Grabbed a dinner plate, a sweet tea (complimentary souvenir cup), and a glass of sky dog. The food…read moreportion was just right! The table had ordered a fried pickles but it was a bit too salty for me. The catfish was great, seemed pretty fresh and it didn't have any metallic taste. The sweet potato casserole was just the right amount of sweet and savory. I was going between the catfish and sweet potato to balance out the flavors. The fried okra was a bit bland and definitely needed the sauce. The service was great - attentive and gave great advice on food options. The interior fits the diner appearance and everything looked pretty clean and tidy. Other people in the party enjoyed their poboys and hash brown casseroles.

    Ajax diner is located in The Square at Oxford. Parking is mostly paid although I hear now there is…read morea deck that is free. Stopped in today with the family on a college visit. Heard we had to try Ajax, the diner, not the soap. We stopped in for lunch before heading to Nashville airport to come home. The diner is about what you'd expect inside. Old, kitschy and full of decor. We sat in a booth an were greeted by a waitress promptly for drink orders. Cokes and waters. They deliver the coke in a neat Ajax cup. I ordered the chicken fried steak. Wife ordered the chicken and dumplings and step son ordered catfish. Everything arrived very quickly and everything was hot and southern deliciousness, except the corn bread. The corn bread was dry and not very good at all. Pretty sure it was yesterday's leftover bread or someone needs to pull it 5 minutes sooner from the oven. Unanimous at the table, Everton e had garb corn bread. No big deal. The chicken fried steak was full of flavor and cooked perfectly. Gravy was great and the red beans and rice side was awesome. All great flavors. Wife loved the chicken and dumplings, good flavor and tender chicken. She got a side of sweet potato casserole and loved it. I had a bite and it was delicious for certain. Step son had the fried catfish, he is not a big seafood eater but he absolutely loves the catfish. I had a big piece and it was cooked perfectly and tasted great as well. The staff was outstanding, the service was great and the food was excellent sans the cornbread. Ajax is a neat little diner in the heart of Oxford. It's a little pricey as is everything in this college town, but it was worth the visit.
