My wife and I had a delicious dinner at Joseph's. The Filet Mignon was cooked to order and very tender. Maddy, our server did an excellent job! We'll definitely be back.

We had my Mom's surprise 80th Birthday Party on March 2, 2024. We could not have been happier at Joseph's! We had close to 70 guests and no one was disappointed with their entrees! We started with a salad, went to a pasta and then our guests had a choice of fish, chicken or steak! Everything was absolutely delicious! The chocolate mousse cake was simply out of this world! Deidra (Manager) was amazing to work with and paid close attention to every detail. The staff was extremely accommodating and personable to boot! The Birthday Girl was quite Happy and this will be a day she will never forget! Thank you Joseph (Owner) for helping us create this awesome memory that my Mom will never forget! Music by Michael Hite completed the event! If you are looking for a venue for a special event- Joseph's will not disappoint! 5 stars! THANK YOU!!!!

This was terribly disappointing. We had such high hopes. We came here for a birthday dinner for the first time, and the food was more expensive on the menu than posted online. It was a Tuesday so they didn’t have prime rib. They sat us next to a beautiful window,but it was so cold we had to wear our jackets. The meal was $300, but honestly was only worth $100 in quality, or less. The stuffed clams tasted like they came out the freezer baked in the oven. The chicken franchese tasted like lemon overkill. No one liked their entree. The waitress forgot one of our side dishes we ordered, yet remembered to put it on the bill! The cheesecake was old! Worst cheesecake we ever tasted! Servers seemed to be new or very inexperienced. We would have liked to sit in the warmer restaurant area, but we were made to sit in the cold patio, and couldn’t really hear ourselves talking because very loud drunk people were at the bar. The rap music they were playing on the speakers didn’t seem to go with the ambience either. I will never come back.

I came in on a Friday night. There was a guy named Andrew playing guitar. He was amazing. The staff were super friendly. The lady at the bar named Valerie was extremely attentive and nice. I had a few questions and she answered them all for me. 10/10 would come

Colin was our friendly, attentive server, who made our dining experience that much more fun! I had the fish and chips, an excellent choice. My three course meal came with a cannoli for dessert that was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend Joseph’s for casual get togethers at their bar or more intimate dinners in their restaurant section. Perfect for our girlfriend get together! There was also live music while we were there.

Visited on a weekday . Very confusing on how to get in the place . Had to look for someone to help me , which was also a challenge , ordered a couple of pizza pies which turned out to be personal pies sizeAt a high price , they did taste amazing .There's a bar area that seems to be popular .

My family and I went to Joseph’s last night for my birthday and I would definitely come back. Deirdre was our waitress and she was quite honestly, the best waitress we’ve encountered in a long time. So sweet and personable, and extremely great service! My husband and I had the ribeyes and our kids had the pizza and penne with chicken and vodka sauce and everyone was very happy with their food.

Went for burger night - met by Deidra - very enthusiastic & phenomenal personality… was about to ask her to come work for us… burgers were divine, clean, cozy, fun…. Will be back to try other items & will come for other events too!! Nice unexpected date night due to a Facebook post in our Hyde park neighbors page. Thx!
