   Having been a customer of Joe Allen's for almost 40 tears I can truthfully say that it has always been one of the best restaurants in all of NYC! Not because it has the best of anything that you're looking for in a restaurant individually, but because all of the ingredients that make up Joe Allen will give a PERFECT evening every time you go! I love Joe Allen and always will!!

   The best theater district restaurant by very far and one of the greatest places in NYC. Wonderful food and service in a warm and spacious atmosphere. A real real New York place. I will never stop going to Joe Allen and loving it. The best of what NYC has to offer!

   Our second visit to Joe Allen wasn't quite as enjoyable as our first. The meatloaf I ordered showed up looking like it had just come out of the microwave. It tasted OK, but honestly I've had better at my local diner. Plus, the wait staff made us feel just a tad rushed. We arrived at 4:15 pm on a Saturday so maybe they wanted to clear our table for the dinner rush, but the atmosphere just wasn't as relaxed as it was for our later visit last time. We did enjoy the vibe of the restaurant, and our food/drinks did arrive precisely as ordered. It was just a bit of a disappointment this time.

   Really nice place, great welcome and really good food. However our first waitress was excellent but she left soon after we arrived and another lady took over. Her people skills and communication was pretty much non existent. Everything she seemed to do took forever, she forgot a coffee we had ordered and I the end we paid at front of house as we were fed up waiting. It put a slight dampener on the evening, it was probably an isolated incident but nonetheless disappointing. However don't let this put you off as the place is otherwise really good.
