Everything from the location to the service to the food was done just right. Absolutely loved, the light bright space at the Jepson and the servers, and manager were super attentive. The food was simple but flavorful and nicely presented. Would definitely go back and will recommend this place.

Nice lunch menu and excellent service in a beautiful setting at Savannah's fine arts museum. They take reservations, which are probably needed on busy weekends.

We were only in Savannah for several hours, but we made the right choice by visiting the Telfair Museum's JOE'S AT THE JEPSON for our late lunch. Everything tasted PHENOMENAL, the presentation of each dish was GORGEOUS, and the service was WITTY & DELIGHTFUL. We simply could not have hoped for better. After a quick browse through the adjacent gift shop, our treasures chosen and purchased, we were off again to head back to Hilton Head with a firm resolve to visit again!

Wow, just wow what a perfect place for lunch. The food quality was delectible, presentation was beautiful and the staff was super attentive. They had live music while we where there and it set a very relaxing mood to the whole meal. I wish I was a local to eat here more often.

Vegetarian options: The bean burger was actually really good. I'm usually worried they will make it super dry or burnt but this one was just right.

Kid-friendliness: A kids meal that's worth it. It came with a sandwhich, Lays chips, fruit cup and a small brownie. Best part of all the kids meal included a stuffed animal which the kid's loved.

Parking: Five bucks for the whole day it great pricing for any coty the size of Savannah.

Went to Joe’s at the Jepson while visiting Savannah on 9/23 since it’s the top rated restaurant. Joe’s certainly deserves its top rating! The location in the Jepson Center is convenient and the setting and ambiance is exceptional. Service is spot-on. Very nice selection of small plates and lunch items. Hubby ordered the Cobb salad and commented on the flavor of the fresh ingredients. I had the soup and 1/2 panini combo - mushroom soup with the Silly Goose panini (pimento cheese, bacon and turkey breast). Excellent combination of ingredients in the grilled sandwich. Soup was tasty, too. Ended the meal with a generous slice of Tuxedo Cake. Definitely recommend!

A wonderful unique place to have a great lunch! They take reservations and I would recommend making them so your table is ready for you. The staff was very pleasant. Joe came by for a few minutes to say hi. A soft spoken man with a true interest to who he is speaking with. If we are ever in Savannah again, we will certainly come again to enjoy lunch with Joe. Thank you Joe!

Really enjoyed this beautiful, sunny cafe in the Jepson Art Center. It's a nice place to have a seat after a long day of touring.

I have wanted to eat at Joe’s at the Jepson for a couple of years, but our schedule never accommodated. Thankfully today my husband and I treated our daughter to lunch here before leaving her at SCAD for her first year of college. Our first impression of Joe’s at the Jepson, beyond the astounding high ceiling with natural lighting, was the poise and hospitality of the staff. I was seated first as my husband and daughter were returning from the SCAD bookstore. I was approached by Don, who I later learned is a part owner, who said, “We will wait until the lady returns so her drink is fresh” when I ordered my daughter a sweet tea. Once my daughter arrived she and Don immediately connected as fellow creatives. He graciously welcomed her to Savannah and shared many local insights and stories. Our food was delicious and beautiful (“food is art” after all), but the best takeaway from Joe’s at the Jepson was gaining Don as a new friend for our daughter. As we head back home, I am recounting our blessings of several locals we encountered while moving our daughter to SCAD this weekend Don is at the top of the list. It gives me great peace of mind as a college mom knowing she is connected to locals. If you are in Savannah, I highly recommend working Joe’s at the Jepson into your schedule. I hear you only have until October when they are closing to pursue a new venture. Thank you, Don, wait staff, and chef, for a most delightful lunch.

Amazing service and incredible food with a one of a kind atmosphere. Incredibly peaceful spot in Savannah. It's like you're having a picnic in a climate controlled environment. Wonderful!

Have been coming to Joe’s forever. (as Joe’s Homemade Café) Haven’t been to Savannah in years, but it’s always a place I need to stop when I’m here. Food is always phenomenal, and so are the owners. A must stop if you’re visiting the area. Thank you for always producing the most delicious food!

A great little Cafe for a light to medium lunch fare. It is located in the lobby of the super energy saving JEP Museum. It is bright and open and gives you an upscale elegant feeling. The staff is first rate too. Very poised & friendly. We had a scrumptious chicken salad crossiant sandwich and a Hibiscus beverage. We had just finished the Museum tour and it was a very pleasant experience. Highly recommended.

Got off trolley stop to use restroom and it was close to lunch time. Looked at trip advisor to see what was close and was excited to see we were right around the other from Jed’s. Man this place did not disappoint. Service was fantastic! The ingredients and flavors were so fresh! I savored every bite. The whole family loved our meals. If you like fresh ingredients and consider yourself a foodie, you need to stop in for lunch!

This was our first time visiting Savannah ,Georgia. We were celebrating our daughter's graduation and 17th birthday. The service is excellent here, ambience is delightful. Food presentation was gorgeous and delicious. Tomatoe soup and grilled cheese were winners. Servers were very attentive and exuded Southern charm. Can't wait to come back and try the desserts!

Wow such a nice place. Great tasting, beautifully presented food, at a great price. Friendly staff. Wonderful setting right in the museum lobby. Wish they were open for dinner too. If I come back to Savannah I will definitely eat lunch there again.

Brought my family here due to the amazing reviews on here. Not sure where y’all are eating, but it’s average at best. It is a pretty setting inside the Jepson atrium and all but it’s just that. Service was friendly, food was ok. Small menu and had a hard time getting a drink menu to order coffee. I was told they had coffee but then later realized had lattes too. Just wanted a menu, that’s all. If your in the Jepson and hungry, it’s a good little spot, otherwise research a little. There are too many other delicious places to eat in Savannah!
