Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab

Always a great experience and of course you can’t beat the food!!!

Stupendous again. Shared The Whale....off the boat fresh seafood. We only come to Chicago once a year and never missed the stop at Joe’s.

Excellent service and food.

This was a birthday celebration. The food & service was excellent. Ambiance was welcoming.

Excellent ambient, the food as always and Joshua gave us a great service, we´ve been at 3 Joe´s and still pending Washington DC

I have been to Joe's in South Beach many times and this was my first time in Chicago and the restaurant did not disappoint. The food was fantastic, deserts (pies) amazing, but the real differentiator was the staff. So engaging, personal, and professional I cannot say enough good things about them. Paul Ritchie the Manager and his team are truly exceptional and this should be a "must visit" if going to Chicago.

joe's is most consistent restaurant in the city. food always outstanding. i think best steaks (always cooked exactly as ordered) among the many steak houses. busy every night and reservations almost always a must. ambiance--decor ok, nothing special but who cares? noise level high to very high but still able to hear. pricey but comparable to other high end restaurants (but not in the 125-250 range of the tasting menu restaurants). waiters invariably push pricey stone crabs and on night we were there they had
one lb. of king crab legs for $99--now that's pricey. ("flown in fresh today" was the hook)
still our favorite restaurant nevertheless.

We've been eating at Joe's in Miami, Las Vegas, and Chicago for many years, and every experience has been great. You can always count on having a 5 star experience!

Amazing food in a fabulous restaurant. Excellent service. Great atmosphere. Everything was top notch

This place is a must wherever you go! If there’s a Joe...go! If you want the best sea food then this is the place! Love it!

My Beautiful Wife and I enjoyed our anniversary time at Joe's. Our waitress, Angelique is Outstanding. The service was Excellent. It was a busy lunch crowd and we were quickly served and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The management needs to recognize all special events deserve a different level of recognition. We witnessed another table celebrating a birthday. We will recommend this Joe's.

Always a great experience at Joe's. Warm friendly staff, great food and atmosphere.

Best service, best food. We cam for our anniversary and they made us feel very special. The pie is amazing!!

always exceeds expectations - excellent food, and service to match!

We had a wonderful experience at Joes. The server was attentive and knowledgeable (we had one person with multiple allergies), & the food was amazing. We will be going back next time we are in Chicago for sure!

Five star restaurant, with five star customers service. The food was amazing!!

It was awesome!

It was all good until they undercooked my burger. They offered to cook it more or start over. I chose cook it more. It was real long time and everyone finished their entrees and the waiter never came back. Suddenly, a manger appeared and asked how everything was. I said not good since I had no food. She said she was aware and was coming to see what she could do. I told her to not even bring my food and just box it to go. She kept asking what she could do. I was thinking that maybe she should be suggesting things to me that could make it right rather than put it on me. They did comp the burger and the desserts that the others ordered. Everyone else said that they liked their food (except the Brussel sprouts), so that was good.

Good food but above everything great service. A little bit to noise

My happy place! Thanks for another wonderful experience.

Love this Chicago classic steak & crab venue!!

Party of four. Bone-in rib eye and bone-in filet were raved about by two of the group who had them. Two of us had the Dover sole and it was the best we ever had. Stone crabs were outstanding and Steven, our waiter, was unobtrusively attentive and professional. In a city of great steakhouses Joe’s may have supplanted others we have frequented.

Anniversary

Great experience!

The service was phenomenal and food was great excellent

Great as usual. Love this restaurant. Used my lettuce app. Saved 25$. Will definitely keeping this as my favorite Chicago place for steaks

Anniversary dinner. It was great that our waitress acknowledged the special evening. It was a bit frustrating that we had a reservation but still had to wait for a table for 15 minutes. Overall wonderful experience!

Always excellent Food Service and Ambiance. Never disappointed

Overall the food was ok - good choices for the kids menu but the service was surprisingly a little inconsistent.
Generally felt it was overpriced for the quality and.quantity - have eaten at this location several times before but not sure we will be back.

Excellent Missed the old Pumpernickle bread. Otherwise great.

I go to Joe’s because it’s great food and stellar service. Would I like to pay less, absolutely, but price is fair for what you get.
We will continue to visit.

All around fantastic experience!
Steve our server had a great personality and came by just the right time every time
Can’t wait to get back to Chicago!

The stone crab is wonderful! All food was amazing, and also the lime pie as the dessert was very tasteful. The server was very nice as well!

The food and the service was fist class. I recommend it as a must do for special occasions.

The sea bass was excellent and our waiter was outstanding

Joe's was the perfect place to host my business dinner. The wait staff were very attentive and addressed all questions with straight forward, spot on responses. Every meal was better than the next.

Can't wait to go back.

OK, in the interest of honesty, if this place was half the price, they would need to use McCormick Place. This place is just that good. It is expensive (yes, we did order the King Crab) but everything we had was great - the sides (potatoes Jenny and , the stuffed mushrooms (my God, they were almost as good as mine), the haricots verts almondine were magnificent, and the wine (a malbec) was quite nice. My crab bisque was sooooooooo good, I wish they had served it in a small tub (bath, that is). We were soooo full, we did not order dessert, so that vindictive bih, I mean waitress brought us a free slice of key lime pie. But to get even, we showed her - we ate it. The place is more formal than Shaw's and maybe 7% better (when we have visited in the past, we always ate at Shaw's). Our server (the aforementioned bih) had great suggestions, including getting the crab iced, rather than steamed - great suggestion! Her only failing (well, besides that other thing) is that she talks to fast. To my wife, she might as well have been speaking Russian.

If you can afford this place, do not miss it. It is definitely one of the best restaurants in this country that serves food most people actually want to eat and don't put up with to show how gastronomically elite (Agnew used the term "effete snobs") they are - yes, I am not a fan of molecular food.

Always wonderful and go here every time we are in Chicago. Thanks Nada, you are delightful! Really enjoyed the evening. ML

The excellent service made the night very enjoyable. We had an outstanding waiter with a great kitchen and dining room staff.

Great food and service...very noisy though. Would highly recommend
