    Beautiful experience from the friendly hosts, to the delightful server, to the food all of which was perfectly delicious. We ordered the skillet cornbread, spinach dip, vegetable sandwich, goat cheese burger and fried chicken sandwich. Absolutely no complaints and they got us in and out in a little over an hour so we made it to our event right on time.

    We used to frequent NYAJ, however, we lost enthusiasm because the menu seemed old and stagnant. What once seemed inventive or adventurous was beginning to feel outdated and repetitive. Our visits became much less frequent once we changed locations. This most recent dining experience was our first visit in about a year, and it felt like a pleasant surprise. For starters, the menus are different. The appearance and format alone can be welcome changes. I also liked how they added some new concepts such as two wraps on homemade wraps. That little touch made it feel different and creative.
