"AJ-NO WAY!"   My Rating
2 medicineca t	Posted on: Tuesday, July 28, 2009
	Review: The patio in back was nice except for the rat traps in view. The vegan sloppy joes had as filling some kind of rubbery pink tofu and I could not taste tomato sauce to save my life. The hummus plate had as hummus some thick spackle-apparently ground chickpeas, which is correct, but I could not taste any tahini. And no pita bread included with a hummus plate, but corn chips instead? And a few carrots and sliced beets, and that's it? I like this place, I really do, it has a college-town bohemian ambiance that is really appealing. But it has got to get its menu and quality together if I'm ever going to order anything more than coffee.   Pros: friendly staff * intimate music venue * casual/comfortable Cons: rat motel/traps around patio * half-hearted food * disappointing food

"Dare I say, better than what Xhedos was!"   My Rating

	Review: So AJ is the person who bought the infamous coffee house Xhedos, renamed it and revamped the menu before reopening. Thank goodness AJ saved this coffee house, because it is still vegan friendly and better than ever! The stage is still in place where many people perform, whether on open mic night or during one of the "performing marathons" AJ puts together to support the community. AJ spent some time living in Mexico and learned about authentic Mexican cooking, so I highly suggest trying one of the Mexican dishes while you are there! Not all items are vegetarian or vegan, but you can always find a vegan meal, dessert, and tea or coffee drink here. Outdoor seating available both in the front of (on 9 Mile) and behind (by the parking lot) the store. I do believe this coffee house (including the stage area) has the most square footage of any in the Detroit area, if not the entire state of Michigan. Its nice to have room to spread out with your laptop or books, but it can still be quite noisy in here (not the best for intimate conversations.) This place is a real treasure! web site: ajsmusiccafe.com   Pros: very vegan friendly * great owner * Cons: noisy * *

"Yum!"   My Rating

	Review: I was delighted with my first trip to AJ's. I got the seitan ruben and a chocolate pb and banana soy milkshake. They also had vegan pie and 5 different vegan sandwich selections. I can't wait to go back and try another sandwich and have dessert! The fella (AJ?) at the counter was very friendly. The food was reasonably priced and the environment was nice.   Pros: * * Cons: * *
