I had the pleasure of having dinner this past Friday evening at Joseph’s for the first time. The meal was absolutely delicious but what made the dining experience exceptional was the server Melanie. She actually knew what we needed or wanted before we did! My date and I both commented at the same time that “she was the best waitress we ever had”! We will definitely be back!

Marquis was an excellent server, clearly articulating special menu items, and delivered our food with such great grace. The food was wonderful both in flavor and volume. We had a great time.

I have to follow a special diet. CHRIS was our waiter who payed specific attention to my dietary issues. He made trips to the chef asking what was in different sauces, helping me to decide . The food for my wife and I were excellent
Thank you again Chris.
