   Appetizers of Crab dip and Great Balls of Fire were good; however Calamari and Shrimp from Platter were overcooked. The manager did modify the bill and offer us more food.

   The food wasn’t really anything to be excited about, but the atmosphere and the service were great.

   Food was good but the service was not. Actually ate at the bar and thought the service would be spot on but I was wrong.

   Combo appetizer was good, the Boil was great! Service was chill…like either really tired or just a super chill dude. Thanks for being open for Christmas

   My family had a really good experience going here on Christmas. The wait was not too long considering the holiday and our server was absolutely amazing. Even though the kitchen was backed up our server did a fantastic job checking up on us periodically. The food was well worth the wait. For our first time at Joe’s we were very pleased and will be returning.

   The worst pina colada I ever had. More butter in the sauces.

   had a christmas reservation for 6 people at 6pm. we arrive early and it was packed. we had to wait 30 min for our table (which was too small to accommodate our party but they had no other options). they said they had 600 reservations that day, seems like they should have capped it because it was very disorganized and over capacity and we had a long wait for food and drinks. food was okay, alcoholic drinks were extremely watered down. not a great experience overall.

   Great food, super service especially considering it was Christmas Day. Yea, it was crowded but they were fully staffed with a full (almost) menu. There were a couple of dishes they were sold out on but they'd been open all day, so it wasn't surprising. Started with the Oysters Rockefeller which were excellent. I had the Broiled Seafood Platter which was a really nice mixture of dishes from lobster to stuffed crab (which was incredible)! My partner had Joe's Top Sirloin with an added lobster tail and thoroughly enjoyed the entire meal. Oh, and I was able to get a couple of bottles of Heineken 0.0 which can be hard to find (alcohol-free beer). We'll definitely being going back the next time we're in Jacksonville Beach!!

    Food was pretty good, but we had to wait a long time. The "reservation" we had meant literally nothing. We went on the walk in list like everyone else.
