The food is good. Not sure about the authentic Italian experience though. The red sauce is quite spacey and lots of dried herbs. Doesn't exactly taste like a nonna's homemade gravy. The service is always excellent.

Not impressed , served awilted side salad. Asked for small portion Risotto, was given full side. Added steak to Risotto, was not given a steak knife.

My waitress was great ! Drink was very good. Ordered appetizer of spinach and artichoke dip and the chips were totally over fried and ruined the whole thing!! And my pizza was greasy!!

Appetizers were the best although calamari was way over cooked & tough. Surf & Turf pizza ($30) had nearly raw meat, mostly pieces of fat. Alfredo was bland. With the prices, we expected much better. Service was good, but no refills on pop or water. Won't be back.

Cocktails were amazing, but the food was poor and overpriced. Overcooked shrimp with greasy pasta. And cheese sprinkled as garnish. Needed acidity and a deft hand. Could have been amazing. But just ham handed

I’ll start off with the staff was very kind and punctual even during busy service. The drinks were the highlight of our meal. Unfortunately, everything was extremely salty. The “Where’s Waldo” pizza in particular was quite oily and salty. So much so, we each ate a slice and didn’t touch the rest. I had hinted to the waitress we did not enjoy the pizza and quickly declined a box when asked. However, this unfortunately did not seem to raise any flags.We would definitely come back and try the steak though as it seems to be a featured item. Just a bit disappointed for our first. Fingers crossed later on.

We’d heard about Joy’s Table but had never availed ourselves. We like to go to places when they aren’t slammed because you get to see more of the place. This joint is a bistro-style eatery. The food was tasty, and portions weren’t stingy. As I tend to, I shoot photos of our food and the place for reviews. While taking pictures, Liam, a managing partner, welcomed my approach and visited. The place was comfortable, and the ambiance was excellent.

The menu was elegantly arrayed, as was the setting of the table, with drinking water furnished from a wine bottle. Dinner menu options were extravagant with cuisine ranging from European to American. Food presentation was good and the server was friendly, but the taste was lacking, and the service was a bit delayed.

A group of four visited while on business. The menu is steaks/pasta. The service was fine, and the food was fine. Nothing outstanding, but fine. One disconcerting note — after returning home I got a notice from my credit card, asking if I had left a 36% tip ($15) at Joy’s Table? No, I left a 20% tip, so the CC suggested that I contact the restaurant directly. I tried calling a couple of times but no one ever answered, so I just gave up. In the grand scheme of things it’s just $7, but the idea of cheating tips is still unpleasant.

This is a very good restaurant located in the Holiday Inn and Conference Center. I like to go here because they do a fantastic job with Beef Stroganoff, for a reasonable price.

Way overpriced. Basically a glorified Applebees. No lobster in "lobster Mac and cheese" and the thinnest $54 ribeye I've ever seen. Save your money.

Best food and service. I have received in a long time. I'll make the trip " clear across Nebraska" just to eat at Joy's Table!! And the evening I was there they had live entertainment!!!
