I have been there 5 times and was waited on 3 times. Best spaghetti and meatballs I have ever had, but the wait staff is hit or miss. I went in tonight and sat for 15 minutes and it wasn’t even busy, so I left. I’ll try again next time.

I just happened to see the restaurant when I passed through the area, and I am glad I went back and stopped. Short wait time, a great tasting pizza for a reasonable price, and the staff was very friendly. Will definitely be back when I am in the area.

Old Faragut go-to for a local owned pizzeria and Italian food. I hadn't been in over 20 years. It was even better than I remembered! My sweetheart had the gluten-free pizza and really liked it. Great, friendly service.Dietary restrictions: Really good GF pizza! But they don't have GF pasta.

Pizza is really good but the staff could at least act like they love working there. The mood there is just meh.Update- Staff could really use some customer satisfaction training and at least act like they appreciate your business. Long time customer but after this evening, I will no longer grace this establishment.

Little Joes pizza is the best I have eaten! Their other menu items are good as well. We prefer pizza. It is always busy with take out, waiting for a table or a sit down meal. The service is excellent! Many of the ladies are known to customers,but if not they will make you a friend before you leave. The guys that cook are fabulous! And sometimes they serve your food especially if they are crazy busy! They all work like a team. People are considerate of others . Customers talked to each other. Its a very nice way to have a good family experience. We had been customers about 5 years when a waitress ask how long we had been seeing each other. Surprised my husband answered we had been married for almost 50 years. She said we acted like we were dating

My favorite pizza in Knoxville! I've been coming here since high school, and it's always been consistent. Little Joe's is Farragut staple!
We got a pepperoni pizza and an Italian sub. I wouldn't recommend either. Pizza was frozen crust and convenience store quality (at best). Sandwich had really good bread and some potential (minus the American cheese). On the upside the staff and servers were really friendly.

First time there. Service was excellent. The atmosphere was typical of a ma-pa restaurant, nothing too fancy. The pizza was the best I had since moving to the Knoxville area. We have been to about six other restaurants specifically for pizza. We did order the Combo pizza which had quite a bit of meat and was salty for those worried about a healthy heart. It sure was delicious, though. Fed the whole family with a lot of take home pizza for under $45. Large Special Combo Pizza, soda drink and a beer with bread sticks and sauce. Will be going back for more. Little Joe's will be a staple of ours.

We had excellent service, our servers name was Grace and she was so sweet. However, there was another worker who I did not get her name, but she was blonde and was very loud. I could hear her across the entire restaurant and she was talking about inappropriate things that should not be said in a restaurant. After that I started watching her and she was sitting down at a booth ignoring all of her tables and not tending to their needs. I feel bad for them but i’m glad I got the good server
