  • Delicious Meals for a Great Price!

    Our family eats at AJ's for the amazing food, friendly staff, and great prices. From breakfast to dinner, we've always enjoyed great meals. Some of our faves are French Toast, Biscuits & Gravy, and Chicken Fried Chicken. And their burgers and sandwiches are stellar! Enjoy!

  • The absolute best in Salem

    This is by far the greatest restaurant that has ever been to Salem. Rudy’s isn’t even missed when these guys are in town. We have brought many friends to this place and all have had fantastic experiences. Please I beg you to give this restaurant a try.

  • A superb addition to downtown Salem

    Tucked into the heart of downtown Salem, this new coffee shop boutique is a true gem, an inviting space where creativity, comfort, and community come together beautifully. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with the aroma of handcrafted soup, coffee, specialty syrups and thoughtfully crafted teas, each made with care and intention. Their homemade soups are deeply comforting, perfect for a cozy lunch or a slow afternoon pause. What truly sets this space apart, though, is the seamless blend of art, Flowers and atmosphere, local and original artwork adds soul to every corner, making the space feel both inspiring and grounded. It’s the kind of place where you linger a little longer, savoring not just what’s served, but the warmth and creativity that fill the room. Downtown Salem is better for it, and this boutique is well worth a visit and many returns!

  • Fantastic Dinner at Blac-N-Bleu Bistro

    We went to Blac-N-Bleu Bistro in Roseburg for a late dinner tonight, and it was such a nice experience. The restaurant is locally owned, which we really appreciate, and everything felt welcoming. The food quality was excellent. We had the cheeseburger soup with house salad and garlic bread, and the pesto chicken sandwich with house salad. Both were delicious and really satisfying. The service was fantastic as well; Kerrie took great care of us and made the evening feel special. Overall, it was a really nice experience and we’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you, Kerrie!

  • Mouthwatering BBQ and one of the Best Mac & Cheese I've Tasted

    I ordered the shredded BBQ pork with slaw and a side of their super creamy homemade mac & cheese. Everything was delicious! Their mac & cheese is one of the best I've tasted! I will be back. Highly recommend!

  • Attention to Detail & Always Delicious

    Attended an event catered by Miller’s BBQ. The food was hot and ready before the guests arrived. Dietary needs were taken into consideration as there were Gluten Free, Dairy Free and Vegan options along with the grilled chicken and brisket done to perfection. Excellent job!

  • Jo Jo Macs

    My first lunch at Jo Jo Macs was fantastic

    Visited Jo Jo Macs in Albany for lunch and was very pleased with the experience. Their Southern BBQ Chicken Sandwich was fantastic - juicy, flavorful, and just the right touch of BBQ tang. And those Jojos - perfectly crispy. It's not just the food, though – the place has a heart. The staff makes you feel right at home, and their weekly specials (a hit with the locals) keep things interesting. A true neighborhood gem that nails the comfort food game. Can't wait to go back!
