AMAZING SOUL FOOD!! Our party of 4 tasted so many delicious meals. For starters we tried the fried deviled eggs and fish bites both 🔥. Next up was the gumbo, uptown salad with double grilled shrimp with a side of greens, chicken & waffles, shrimp & grits and the fried catfish plate with grits. EVERYTHING WAS COOKED TO PERFECTION!!! We also tasted the candied yams, mac n cheese and black eyed peas all 🔥 as well. For drinks we ordered a Dirty Martini and Rose Martini absolute perfection. This place is perfect for large or small groups and an excellent choice for dinner prior to attending Crypto. You can not go wrong dining here. Also our waiter AARON was thee best with his recommendations and service. 5⭐️'s for sure Fixins

The cocktails, food and service are absolutely perfect at Joyce. This was my second visit. Enjoyed the Merry Mayhem Uncle Nearest cocktail (a nice, sweet and smooth take on the old fashioned), started with deliciously fresh and warm cornbread. Followed with a fresh goat cheese and beets salad. Shared the full rack of pork ribs and the mac and cheese - both incredibly good. Loved the light spicy kick on the ribs. I was celebrating my birthday and they brought me a really good banana pie with a candle. Loved the food and the great service.
