    This was our first time. Everything was fantastic. From the minute we walked in the door till we were leaving. The food was incredible and all the suggestions about sharing sides and the actual portions was great info. Michelle (I’m hoping I got her name right) was such a wonderful server. She knew all the items and was very attentive. Even the guys that came around to refill drinks and clear the table were impeccable and so polite. We enjoyed our meal very much.

    I’ve had much better meals at Joe’s. It’s was a busy Monday night and we were a large party, but much of our food was lukewarm at best when served. We sent back a side because it was cold. Many people had steaks that were over temp but didn’t want to say anything as we were on a slight time crunch. Needless to say we were all a little disappointed and I felt bad for bringing the group there.

    I've never had a bad experience at Joe's, and yesterday was no exception. I would heartily recommend it to anybody...providing that they're aware it isn't cheap but you certainly get what you pay for and then some. Not only great food but friendly, professional and accommodating service with absolutely no hassles whatsoever. It's definitely my favorite Chicago restaurant. Class all the way.

    We offered our son destinations of Hawaii, Jamaica and Las Vegas to celebrate his 21st birthday because of the covid shutdown on his 18th. He wanted to chill in Chicago for a couple of nights and have dinner at Joe's. (Super low-key person). From the moment we checked-in, he was wished a happy birthday from the matre-di and from ALL of the employees we encountered. The attention was on him the entire service. We have had the pleasure of eating at Joe's in the past, and knew he chose the best spot to enjoy a birthday "experience". I say experience because the food is AMAZING (don't just take our word for it, read the reviews), as well as the attention to detail that is given during the service. We have eaten at many steak and seafood places in the city, which I won't name, to be courteous. But when you have a meal at Joe's, you not only have outstanding dishes, you are treated like a rockstar. From the tender calamari, to the bisque, tenderloins cooked perfectly, seabass with a butter-like texture, and grilled seafood platter that is the freshest we have had and have been on many travels. Thank you to ALL of the staff for helping us make a memorable birthday event to our super smooth son, Mekhi. And a special thank-you to Colleen, our master experience provider, for making sure this was a memorable night for our family. We will definitely return.

    One of our favorites because it’s always wonderful! Water glasses filled promptly, drink orders taken and monitored for any refills. Table cleared often and promptly, including crumbs. Our server checked on us but didn’t hover. The food was delicious, from the bread to the sides, steak and dessert. The noise level was fine, a nice jazz background's that fairly absorbed most ambient noise. When you want to be treated to a delicious meal, with care (especially if you have an opportunity to be with Colleen, you will feel very special.

    I have had stone crab many times but never a traditional Turkey dinner. It was one of the best in the city! Turkey was perfect , not even a knife was needed to cut it! Stuffing excellent. Cranberry, green beans and mashed potatoes made a beautiful plate. Generous portions but just enough to save room for pumpkin chiffon pie! A+ on all counts. Not one negative mark…thrilled to be there and shall return!!

    We went to the restaurant on Thanksgiving. We were crammed into the dining room like sardines! I suspect the seating did not meet any fire code! We were so close to the other table that my daughter had to move her chair in order to let anyone walk between tables. It was ridiculous! On the positive side, the food was very good, though lukewarm. Our server was fantastic!!

    The biggest problem was the terrible seating arrangement. I understand it is a popular, busy restaurant and they want to seat as many people as possible, but that shouldn't be at the cost of ruining the experience for the customer. Our table was just inside the main dinning room. Unfortunately, it was placed partially in front of the entry way which acted as a type of wind tunnel joining the bar area to the dining room. Every time the front door was open, a gust of cold November air game flowing through the passage way right onto our table. Our food was wonderful but sadly ruined by turning stone cold in under five minutes of being subjected to this placement. Service was disappointing. Our server seemed to assume we were going to order minimally and thus he had no interest in us. Don't know what was actually in his thoughts but perhaps it was our gray hair and the fact there were only two of us. Our final bill for two was over $350 so we really weren't ordering on the cheap. When I made a request he responded with a snide comment rather than actually addressing my question. Again, the food was great. The total dining experience...Not so much so.
