I only went here because it looks so old school...like places I remember happily from my youth. I've only had two cheesesteaks from here and they were perfectly wrapped and absolutely satisfying. Seriously, my favorite cheesesteak. I just moved to Columbia and they're maybe a block from me. Thank God.

First time there. I ordered a cheese steak with sauce and whiz with fries and it was almost 20$. No flavor on the steak or the sauce the best thing about it was the bread. . And I think he charged me for NOT having onions. Won't go there again.

We ordered 3 orders of 12 wings at $15.55 each. Not only were we also gonna get charged.75 for ranch and blue cheese but the wings weren’t even whole wings. So technically we paid $15.55 for 6 wings. Food was good, but when we spend almost $70 and you still want to charge for Ranch and/or Blue cheese, that’s just

Well the food was good. I liked everything that I ate. The milkshake was fantastic!!! The only thing I would do differently is try to get the cheese sauce from the fries on the steak sandwich. That would have been awesome.

Best cheesesteak's served with amazing hospitality and smiles. Very polite family.
We were in Columbia to rent a couple of e-bikes at the newly opened Lets Roll bicycle shop on Locust. We headed over to Mr Joe's Steak House expecting to dine on a coupe of NY strip steaks or rib eyes. NOPE. Mr Joe's makes chopped steak sandwiches, but by cracky he does it very very well. Some of the best tasting beef I've eaten in a long long time. This was not a stereotypical Philly cheesesteak either. The sandwich bagan with slices of provolone on a tasty soft roll, filled with tenderly delicious chopped steak that was not over cooked, and topped with a marinara sauce. Absolutely delicious! We also tried the onion rings that were dipped in a light beer batter and fried to perfection. The food here was a delight to eat. I star off though due to the uncleanliness and clutter throughout the restaurant.
I was hoping for mashed potatoes n roast beef sandwich I got the sandwich with fries with gravy which I didn’t care for too much,No mashed potatoes at the time asked for pizza to go no ? my grandson had a burger and jalapeño poppers he said it was good.

Good lunch at Mr. Joes. I don't live in town and usually eat at the same place when here for work, so I wanted to try a new place. If you're looking for a no frills place old-school diner then this is it. I had counter service. Quick and polite service. I ordered a cheesesteak, onion rings, and a drink. It was less than $15. The steak was good, it came with chopped onions. The cheese was on the bun and steak placed on top so it was not completely melted through (not a complaint). Drink was huge. I also had a small order of onion rings which was more than plenty. As you can see in the photo they are real onion rings. Some locals came in and chatted. I was there on a Tuesday and it was not super busy for table service. Plenty of people came in for pick-up orders. Beware of street sweeping at mid day. You will get a ticket.Nice job. I would come back.

I ordered a cheese steak with bo onion , large was displayed as $8.60 sent my total cam out to 12.xx they charge you 60 cent for NOT putting onions on, they charge you 2.00 dollars for cheese and on top of that a 1 if your using a DEBIT card. After all of this I was expecting a fantastic cheese steak , it's was absolutely terrible. Tasted like water. Wasn't even enough cheese and sauce to taste. I loved the esthetic of the place though . But that's it. I'm sure many years ago if was fantastic.

Just wondering if the owner looks around and see's the filth on the lower kitchen cabinets and their handles that the food preparers touch as they make your food ( where the sub rolls were stored) .I have been to Columbia ,pa for a cheese steak over 60 times to a competitor , since I have seen this issue, from sitting at a counter stool @ Joe's. Shame...thats a lot of $$$$$ lost .
