    We had a post graduation dinner and heard great things. Went for an early dinner on a Wednesday night. Sat outside on a nice patio. Service was great. Friendly and very attentive. Not pretentious. We all had seafood. Amazing. I had freshly caught Rock Fish and the wife had fresh Seabream. Pasta with seafood was so fresh. And of the guests had a steak. All excellent quality and fresh. Would definitely go back. If you aren’t a seafood eater.. you will be ok. But limited. A define must go !

    A lovely old standby for seafood but incredibly pricey for the wine and drinks and a bit less authentic Croatian than I expected catering more to the rich old Yorkville set.

    I’ve been at Joso’s several times. Over the years this place hasn’t change, still the same quality of food, excellent service and beautiful ambiance. The Nero and grilled octopus has always been my favorite. There’s always a good choice of crustacean delights.

    Very accommodating, we were late and they still seated us with np, we had to make a function at a certain time, they made us feel comfortable and unrushed we made our engagement on time. Food and service is excellent. BR
