We decided to try a new place for our anniversary dinner tonight and we’re so glad we chose Joe’s Italian! Robert really made us feel so special, we couldn’t have had a better experience! Outside seating was so beautiful and peaceful, amazing drinks and delicious dinner special! The chocolate cake really was the best way to end the night! Thank you again Robert!

Really enjoy the food here. Service has always been friendly and prompt. Filet blue crust was great. The surface and turf was great.

The food and drinks were great and decently priced. The tiramisu for dessert was absolutely phenomenal. Service was quick and very attentive to drinks and asked if we had any allergies. Will absolutely be back when in the area!

Joe's is a wonderful restaurant with wonderful staff. From the bussers, the kitchen staff, the owner, to the waitresses and bartenders (like the lovely miss Selah). Thankful for all they do!

Awful first time experience tonight. Our server named “Cecil” she had bangs. She was absolutely awful. Took forever to check on us, ask for food, bring us food. We arrived at 6:15, didn’t receive food until 8:00. Food came out cold. Complained to the “manger” that they didn’t even have on site. Absolutely not worth the money or the drive. Would not recommend.
Side note: the bartender was AMAZING! She had cute lil space buns! She would be the only reason we would return but we honestly not worth it for the price. Better places like publik house to spend your money.

We came here on a whim because other restaurants were fully booked. We were thrilled to still get a seat despite the restaurant being full. The service was friendly and cheerful, adding to the nice atmosphere of the experience.

The food was great. My daughter ordered the ravioli, my wife ordered the bolognese, and I ordered the Basta Pasta. The Basta Pasta is a spicy marinara sauce with seafood served over spaghetti.

This was the first time in a VERY long time there I had a seafood pasta where the seafood was cooked appropriately. Oftentimes the seafood is overcooked and I was completely expecting overcooked chewy shrimp. To my surprise, the chef nailed it. Perfectly cooked shrimp and perfectly cooked scallops are rarity in Italian restaurants.

We reserved a table a week ahead for our anniversary but didn’t get a proper table—ended up at the bar area. Luckily, the bartender was great and the food was awesome. Docking one star for the seating issue, but hoping for a better experience next time.

Great food, service always! But tonight, we had a unique evening while dining that involved a medical emergency! Every employee at Joe’s took such good care of us! Not a detail was left unmet! We are so appreciative of the support you gave, and will not be forgotten! Thank you! 😊
