Not really any complaints except having to wait quite a while for the bill and then to pay..but that being said it looked busy inside with a few bigger tables and it's easter weekend
Original Joe's has a FUN vibe...GREAT food and EXCELLENT servers! I also LOVE their menu...there is something for everyone. Lovely kid's menu, too. It's always a positive visit at Original Joe's.
Everyone enjoyed their meals. I had a too much dressing on my salad, next time I will get the dressing on the said. 😊 Thanks
We were in the patio area which not many people use. It's nice and warm and quiet in there. Nice ambiance as well. The wings were a little dry. Our server kept forgetting to check on us, brought everyone's food but mine because she forgot, forgot to bring our drinks. But she did apologize and didn't charge us for our drinks.
Not sure what exactly is Original in Original Joe's except a couple of meat dishes. Standard fare found in many other similar establishments. Good food overall-nothing to write home about. Service was outstanding.
Service was awesome, food was great,portions were over the top,will definitely go back, only thing was it was quiet loud but overall a 10
Table we were originally sat at was high and the chairs felt like I was sitting in a bucket which made the table top at high chest level. So noisy I asked to be moved outside to the heated deck area, which was a lot quieter although chairs were still not very comfortable.
Great spot my server was super nice:)

It’s a really nice restraunt and sports bar but it’s loud and feels almost a bit club like. Not a relaxing sit down spot for sure but I did go on a Saturday so who knows. The food was good tasting I got the nachos but it was really hard to eat and the paper stuck to everything so I would t order it again just because of that

I usually drive by OJs and go to my regular favourite place, but tonight I decided to go in just to try a different place. It’s my birthday but I was feeling a bit down. Going to OJs turned out to be an excellent idea, not only was the food incredibly yummy, I received the type of service I provide when I work as a server. Darby was outstanding - absolutely delightful!!! So attentive and knowledgeable in helping me pick the best dishes out according to my likes and dislikes. It’s rare that I go to a place for their service, but I will definitely be back because of how special Darby made me feel and how my entire mood uplifted after I talked to her. Thank you Darby! You are a gem and an asset to your employer, my birthday ended on a sweet note thanks to you! ????
