The food is delicious, the prices are amazing, the service is impeccable. I've been going here since childhood and nothing has changed yet everything has become more amazing.

Fantastic place! The food is wonderful and the people are super friendly. A single entree comes with salad, bread, wine, and dessert - all of them are delicious. Would have gladly paid more for a similar meal. Highly recommended.

First time I have tried Mr. Joe's Cafe. Would not hesitate to go back. What a gem. Services was excellent and pleasant. Had the homemade gnocchi. Was the best I have had in a long time as well as the gravy. Five stars!

Do NOT drink their wine! I've seen someone reuse customer's wine. A worker retrieved three glasses of wine (semi-full) of previous customers' wine and poured it into a jug of wine. This is absolutely unsanitary. This business saves customer's leftover wine, adds into a jug and serves it to the next customer. If they're offering you FREE WINE, BE WARNED, I'd stay far away from this business. Patrons, be aware!

This is the kind of place that makes you glad you live in the area. Only open 11-5 so suburban folks eat your heart out. Today I had a bowl of bean and Swiss shard that was tasty and thick. My wife had the scarapelli(sic) soup which is hard to get out side of an Italian family. It's a delicate rolled pasta in a broth. Then we split a large pork sandwich which is better then a lot of prop places. Salad, bread,a glass of wine and 2 desserts...for $27 total. Thank you Mr Joe, and Annie Marie the overworked waitress!

This is our 4th time here. Always perfect. Anna Marie is so on the ball.. YOU MUST TRY MR. Joe's.. Especially if you are traveling from out of state to Philadelphia.

Veal Parm w/ side of gnocchi was so good that I keep on thinking of it. The crepe in broth soup was the best I have ever tasted. It all came with glass of red housewine and exceptional dessert from Termini. The only downside is cash only. I had to run to corner deli for atm.

Such a cool little place. The food is really great and they offer a lot of daily specials. Mr Joe's is one of those "going back in time" places. The staff is so welcoming and friendly. This is the type of place that makes South Philly so special.
i keep coming back for the chicken piccata, one of my absolute favs. and the cannoli is off the charts!

Food was amazing, service was great did not feel rushed. And the prices are great!! I will be going back! Be sure to try the homemade gnocchi. Just keep in mind that it is cash only.

Highly recommend for phenomenal Italian food. Going here you're instantly transported to a cafe in Italy. All of the clients speak fluent Italian, makes you feel like a tourist in your own city (in a positive way). Every entree comes with a glass of wine and a dessert from termini bros across the street.
We loved Mr Joe’s. Please reopen
