So my wife and I was in Salisbury and I was thinking as we went past DJ's we had not eaten there in quite some time. So we decided to get a bite while we were in the area.My wife wanted the coconut Shrimp. I decided on the wings. I just about got the Lasagna. It's all ways been good over the years. I had a salad to go with my wings. Salad was fine. My wife wanted the sweet sauce for her coconut shrimp but it came with some other dipping sauce. Which neither she or I liked. Her Coconut shrimp were cooked that had it been a piece of meat it would be Well Done. There was no sign of coconut on the shrimp. And the dipping sauce wasn't even good. My wings were cooked to death. I was rolling them in the wing sauce to possibly give them some moisture. They were cooked dry I was having to wash each one down with my beverage. As we sat there talking to each other about how disappointed in our meal. I called our youngest son to see if he and his wife had eaten there in a while. And his first remark was we sure have a the quality of the food had gone down in flavor and quality. Not sure if we will get give DJ's another chance or not. Out waitress was spot on with Tea or anything we needed. A very pleasant young lady. Not sure what has changed. Had they been just slammed with customers but at 4 in the afternoon. read more

Crab dip appetizer 10/10! So good! The blackened shrimp wrap was good. The shrimp could have been cooked a little longer (personal preference). They have SO much to choose from on the menu I will definitely be back! The ambiance is a vibe too. read more

Dj's food is always reliable and plentiful. I got a blackened shrimp wrap and literally had to take more than a half home and I always get a side of their pasta salad, which is always exceptional. My colleagues got a lasagna and the other got chicken wings. read more

The food was super delicious and huge portions. I took home enough that I had lunch. The next day prices were very reasonable. The service was very friendly, loved the decor inside.Highly recommend this place read more

I've never had a bad meal here and today's pizza was fantastic! Service is prompt and the atmosphere is relaxed.

The restaurant is a really nice place the staff are Excellent Peter was super helpful with this being out 1st visit. I got the crab soup. The soup was extremely tasty but sad to say there is NO lump crab no where in sight. Jeff got the Ruben and only could eat half the chips are freshly made are are delicious and crispy will I be back absolutely just wouldn't order crab soup I really glad I just got a cup I only ate half got tired of searching for the crab read more

the service was terrible despite them not being very busy. my drink was frequently empty. the server/bartender didn't come back for our orders they overheard me talking about how slow my app was coming out while they were standing and talking to each other the amazingly it was ready instantly. the food was good, but at the end the tab for 2 was $85 AND they added gratuity on for a table of TWO. The vibe was nice inside, but they open their folding doors, and it's next to a busy noisy road. So they really kill the vibe with the noise from the street next to it. I might go back for the food, but I couldn't recommend it to anybody, because the service and gratuity was so ridiculously terrible. 2 stars. read more

Ordered takeout -- they have great pizza. I tipped 20% (for takeout) and the young lady didn't even say thank you. When she handed me my pizzas, I said "Thank you," and she responded "Not a problem." Pretty sad. Her tip jar was empty -- go figure. read more

Food is bad. Service is bad. It took over 12 minutes to even be greeted. There were fingerprints on all of the glasses and silverware which tells me they don't clean anything. I ordered a few things but left them due to unsanitary plates and glasses. Trash was everywhere. Please do not eat anything from here. You may get sick. Don't waste your money. And the owner was sitting ,playing a game and watching everyone and didn't do a thing. Horrible restaurant and not worth the price of any of the food. AVIOD AT ALL COSTS!!!! read more

DJs is a popular spot but not one I've been to before. We went primarily because they have a well defined gluten friendly menu and it's even marked on the menu which is a very nice feature. I got the pizza which was very good but the whole menu was both wide ranging and tasty looking. We also got a salad which was large and well prepared. As I mentioned, they have a decent selection of gluten free options and take the time to mark them so you don't worry (the fries are not for example, but you don't have to wonder). It can be busy, especially for evenings as it's a popular bar among local students. read more

Wife and I were out and about and hungry so we decided to hit DJ's in Salisbury. We've been there numerous times over the years. It was a late lunch so it wasn't crowded. We were seated promptly and greeted by our server. The place was clean and well-lit. I opted for the Reuben and my wife got a chicken Greek wrap. The fries we got were well-seasoned and hot. My chips were exceptional. All crispy with no half raw floppers. Great job. My wife's wrap was prepared well and assembled without everything spilling out when you take a bite. Bravo! Don't you hate it when that happens? She said it was delicious. My Reuben was very good with one small drawback, it was swimming in dressing. The corned beef was tender and delicious. I'll order it again but will get the dressing on the side so I can control the amount on the sandwich. Prices are reasonable and service was good. read more

Visited DJs Restaurant off of Innes for lunch. There is plenty of parking around the side. Seating was relatively easy and service was good until the end. The French Dip had too much cheese in my opinion, on top of the bread. The krinkle style fries were a nice touch and the au jus dipping wasn't salty. The server did a great job checking up on us until the end, when I couldn't get the check. This was the only hold up here. read more

Ordered a calzone and a small pizza. Both were undercooked and flavorless. I have heard great things about the place so decided to try it and I was definitely disappointed. ‍. The calzone was so doughy and lacking any flavor. read more

Being a Salisbury native, I have been to DJ's many times. Sadly, I just have never found anything that I enjoy. This visit my husband insisted we try the baked ziti (because I love ziti), but I was let down. I wish it had a meat sauce. The sauce was too sweet for me. The only reason for 3 stars is because my husband really enjoys it, and I like their drinks! read more

I ordered a entire 2 pork chops with a side of fries and broccoli along with the chicken quesadilla for $30 (insane I know right hear me out) the pork chop was dry just pretty much a piece of tree bark (no lie) loved the extra burnt taste and texture it added a real flare to my $30. On to the chicken quesadilla, the bread might as well be a fried pigs ear with a extra burnt flavor who doesnt love this :). The chicken was dry I felt like SpongeBob "WaTTeR" while feeling like Mr. Krabs "ya wasting all me money" . The chicken was tougher than how ya felt 1st day hitting the gym and giving ya card to ya lady. It was also so bland that even Karen wouldn't eat it. She's giving yelling "Giving him his $30 back now!" *Deep breaths* smell that?? Yeah thats the broccoli...I didn't even want to take a bite of this but I will just for y'all... It's so great I bet my neighborhood strays would love it. And you know my favorite part was I could't take it back. Again $30 of food gone But other than that the inside of the look great. It can be a great place to go out with friends and drink but not eat. read more

First off let me say, the food is good. We live out of town and like to go there and eat. We finished eating and the waitress took our money and came back with the receit. She gave my husband a receit and put a note down in front of him and said one of the waitress asked me to give you this. I picked it up and threw it on the dirty dishes in her hand.I told her, we dont do shit like that. That is very disrespectful. She said I dont get involved, but she did when she brought the note over. I told her that this was my husband, dont do things like that. I shook my head and left. I will not go back there because I dont have time for waitresses trying to break up my happy home. I called and told the manager, he said he will handle it. I hope so because the old me, would have wouped her ass and we both would be in jail. I know my husband goes to work and stays home. Someone else might not be so polite. I hope this doesn't happen to someone else. You cant even go out to eat anymore, without some tramp, trying to break up a happy home. That was bold. I am still mad.That is not a club or school, it's a family restaurant. read more

We quit eating there a while back. Just not good. A while back there was some complaints about the restaurant being too noisy to the neighbors. The owner was quoted using vulgar words about his unhappiness. read more

Shitty service. Wouldn't recommend. Management is stealing tips from the servers. Seen someone take tips off one of the servers table. Found out her name was jordan overhearing waitresses talking about her. What a thing to do. This is her read more

Disappointed. Drove from East Rowan to eat at DJ's tonight. We were greeted at the door and promptly seated. After we were seated we waited at our table for ~15 minutes and were not acknowledged again. No drink order and no server to come by and say 'I m busy and will be with you soon in a few'. We discussed other dinner options near by and settled on Hendrix down the street. The three of us got up and walked to the door leaving our menus and wrapped silverware on the table. We said "we'll see you next time. " to the hostess, that seated us, behind the register. She was very polite as she replied ok, see you later. I don't know that anyone knew we were there or even questioned us as we left. It's a shame, their food is usually very good. read more

service sucks at bar the bartender more into phone then customer. This sucks she's not even hot lol

Worst experience ever!!!! Douglas the manager needs to get a clue!!!!! I've been in the restaurant business since I was in my twenties and have never had to return two entrees and then be assaulted verbally by the kitchen manager as he stuffed his fat bald face while we were conversing!!!!! Grouper tacos----dead burnt and under seasoned and my second entree was supposed to be be a medium rare chopped steak came out well done!!!! I miss the old owner!!!! Do not visit this place! It's completely trash!!! Betty however was amazing!!! So sorry my dear read more

I came on a Saturday evening and the parking lot was completely full. I ordered for take out and circled the block and came back to find a parking space. Upon walking in, I was "greeted" by a man who was smoking a cigarette. I glared at him but didn't have the guts to tell him there's no smoking indoors. I couldn't find an employee to let them know of the situation and when I left the smoker was still there. There was very loud music playing. I'm glad the take out area was in a separate area with a door. Otherwise it would have been difficult to communicate. The employee who helped me pick up my order was nice. They made sure my order was accurate as it was placed into the bag. While picking up my food I had a partial view of the kitchen area. Most employees were not wearing masks (as mandated by law during the COVID-19 pandemic. The employee who was helping me did not wear a mask or gloves, although a plexiglass divider was on the counter. The food was not as good as I had hoped. The crab and shrimp dip had an oily slick on top and didn't have much flavor. The dip didn't have much crab or shrimp flavor and tasted mostly of cream cheese. The Caesar salad was average. The lettuce was still wet when I ate it so I would recommend the restaurant to try to dry the lettuce more thoroughly. The fettuccine Alfredo was also average. It could have used more flavor but it was still edible. Thankfully the sauce that came in it wasn't as oily as that of the crab and shrimp dip. The crab soup was flavorful and hearty. It was my favorite thing I ate. It reheated well for the next day. I will give this restaurant another try. I will definitely order something different. I would also like to see all employees following safety guidelines to protect themselves and others during this pandemic. read more

Wonderful Labor Day experience! One of the best burgers I've had in a long time! Great friendly staff especially our waitress Lauryn. Super clean nice restaurant. Will definitely be back! read more

Ordered a tequila and it had a bug in it! Told the waitress and she brought another one out. Long story short I was not compensated from the drink they expected me the pay for it. The manager came out and was rude and disrespectful while explaining to me that my compensation was the new drink but I still had to pay for it! Never going back and recommend others don't accept this trash and unsanitary policy! read more

One of our favorite weekend spots in Salisbury. Good food and cold beer. Live music and trivia nights. Nice outdoor/patio sitting area. Note: Only I would probably have this problem being the redneck I am, but when they have bands playing on the patio make sure your shirt has sleeves or you cant sit out there. read more

The food always gives fresh out the microwave vibes. It's not bad but it's not great. The pizza & ranch is good. The crab ravioli not good there's barely any crab and the ravioli is gummy but my expectations weren't that high for the price point. The shrimp scampi is okay it could use more seasoning. read more

Really awesome food. Great customer service. Great place to watch football. We were in town for a baseball tournament and I always like to try new places, and saw a really great outdoor area, so we stopped after to eat and watch some Sunday Football. Burgers were great. AHI TUNA WAS PHENOMENAL!!!! Chicken pita was delicious- fries were fantastic!! No complaints. Definitely recommend. Only down fall was a cigar smell outside. read more

This place is a lot bigger on the inside than it looks. They have a lot of awesome cover bands that play here regularly which I think is fun and cool. The service was very prompt and friendly. Our alcoholic beverages were reasonably priced and well executed. We had the fried greem tomatos appetizer which was mostly delicious. I could have done without the roasted corn underneath as it tasted old and chewy. We ordered a large pepperoni pizza which came out in a timely manner despite their business. The pizza was good but typical which was all we were looking for on our night out. I would definetly return as they have a fun vibe, great service, and reasonably priced mixed drinks. read more

First time here as it was highly recommended~I can't recommend to someone else! Place was very clean-large menu selection-I ordered chicken tenders and fries and the fries were very cold! The tenders were like Tyson frozen tenders! After that I thought order a side of onion rings-don't have any-ok sweet potato fries don't have that either. The waitress never introduced herself. Needless to say I won't be back! read more

Avoid, avoid, avoid!!!! Got here at 6:30, got food at 8 after having to ask again for our food. Cold and tasteless best describe the food here. It is deceiving to see the parking lot full. It is not because the food is good. It is because people who got here at 4 were still waiting for their food. AVOID AVOID AVOID!!! read more

There aren't a ton of lunch options in Salisbury. Working nearby, I've tried several, and wound up back at DJ's for lunch with coworkers. I'd been twice before and had unfortunate experiences with larger groups, but I figured that with just six of us, it should be fine. Narrator's voice: It was not fine. There are gluten free notations on the menu, but they're few and far between and uninspired. I opted for the Farmhouse Burger with no bun. The menu description is: "10 oz ground combination of beef and bacon, topped with two fried eggs, applewood smoked bacon, sliced red onion, and mayonnaise." The only alteration I made was to hold the bun. I was served a pale patty with just bacon and eggs on top. Upon further inspection, it was a turkey burger. Did someone in the kitchen think I was on a health kick by skipping the bun? And that I didn't want the beef and bacon patty? And where TF did my onions go? I slid the eggs off the pallid patty and had what amounted to bacon and eggs for lunch, for $12. Also, half of my fries were wet, for reasons unclear. Our server seemed to be one of only two working on Friday lunch. She never came back to check on us and only offered refills when she brought our checks, which sat on the table next to ours for several minutes. She seemed surprised that we collected and distributed the checks ourselves instead of waiting for her to hand them out. The server added a 20% gratuity to all of our checks, since we were a group of six. She added a drink to my order that I didn't ask for. When I pointed it out, she disappeared for a moment and came back with two dollar bills, saying something about "voiding the drink would cause problems in the computer." It's worth noting that DJ's has a cashier. A person whose job it is to make the checks and settle the balance. But voiding a drink I didn't order was too much to ask. One of my coworkers examined his check to see that his bill was $15 and the added gratuity was also $15. Another in my party noticed that she had a drink added to her bill, too. One of the women had a side of ranch added that she didn't ask for. So, is something shady going on at DJ's? Or is that incompetence? Some weird kind of Salisbury math? I won't be back to DJ's. Everything about this place is unfortunate. read more

Omg the food is out of this world - the taste is impeccable, and fries are to die for! I would definitely come again and again despite the inadequate waitress.

Now back to the quality of the restaurant; omg- unbelievable- simply marvelous. read more

Decor: Beautiful place! Totally renovated. Outside seating with enclosed patio and heat lamps. Large separate bar great for after hours. Restaurant area is clean and beautifully decorated for Christmas. Staff is very friendly. Food: MAC n cheese bites appetizer special: it arrived quickly. No dipping sauce. Taste was ok. Needed a dipping sauce. DJs House Salad with Blackened Chicken: Salad comes pretty plain so we added bacon and eggs. I wouldn't call it Blackened but it was seasoned. Nothing to rave about. DJs House Salad with Blackened Shrimp: served with warms buns! Salad comes pretty plain so we added bacon and eggs. I wouldn't call it Blackened but it was seasoned. Nothing to rave about. High rating is for the nice restaurant. read more

I'd you're worried about Covid - DO NOT GO. The people cooking didn't wear a mask, most waiters didn't, and the manager himself didn't...Service is slow, you only get rolls if you ask for it (but don't forget to ask for fresh ones or you'll get brick style rolls). We started with spinach dip with some dry nachos and old pita, then we ordered a vegetarian meal that had canned mushrooms in it, uncooked green peppers, and basically fresh onion. We did order cocktails and one of them (strawberry short cake) tasted good if you don't like tasting alcohol. Overall - don't recommend. read more
