Joanie's Cafe continues to offer a delightful dining experience with delicious food and excellent service. This staple on California Ave has been around for more than two decades and remains a solid choice for many. The breakfast medley and chicken Milanese are highly recommended for their amazing flavors and generous portions. The food itself is solid, with highlights like the peach muffins made in-house, which many find irresistible.
The ambiance is laid back and communal, complemented by lovely outdoor dining options and beautiful weather. Despite a bustling atmosphere, the staff is generally attentive and friendly, though some recent visits have noted mixed service. While some dishes, like the French toast and potato options, have been described as just okay, the overall quality of food and service remains worth the slightly pricey cost. Joanie's is a classic that continues to stay true to its roots while offering a pleasant dining experience.
