    I brought my two young grand daughters out to dinner for a nice dinner with grandma. The server was wonderful. The Waldorf salad was large and delicious. Kids Mac and cheese was gobbled up. Large chicken Cesar wrap was also large and tasty.

    For what it is, Joe’s is great. We take our grandkids regularly. The staff is friendly and supportive. The kids menu is simple but appropriate.

    Food and service was great! However, Guinness beer is too expensive and young kids are extremely loud. Other than that, loved the food.

    The service was great, we were a pretty large party and everything came out hot at the same time. Our waitress was great and very accommodating.

    We came here for dinner on Saturday night and were disappointed. I walked away feeling borderline sick. Our server was quite nice, although I suspect the large party in the back seriously affected delivery of my intensely alcoholic pineapple drink and both our main dishes. My queasiness stemmed mainly from the seafood risotto that was heavy and nearly inedible due to the cayenne pepper -- a juvenile culinary practice, especially since the description didn't even mention spice. My wife's mustard chicken felt extra oily this time (smaller portion, too). All the bread and olive oil we consumed while waiting for our delayed meals didn't help. Ditto for the greasy sticky menu I received and the foot traffic around us by folks in less-than-optimal physical condition.

    Thank you for the review. This feedback is helpful. We are working hard on great food and service, hope you give us another try soon to see our focus.

    Mustard crusted chicken was good - one I get every time, but the portions seem to be getting smaller and smaller and the price keeps going up.
