    last night my girlfriends and I went to Joanne Trattoria located in 79 West 68 street., I attended a event called Sir Elton - a tribute experience. Lance Millard was sensational! he sang many of Elton John’s songs. I loved his big eyeglasses , feathers, energy and outfit. Sam was wonderful. Very kind and helpful.. He ensured we were comfortable, and assisted with many questions we had about the menu and the restaurant. I had the chicken parmigiana with a side of linguini. They were both very good. They served bread. It was good also. Overall the food was good and the ambiance and entertainment was amazing. I would recommend this place.,

    We always enjoying eating at Joanne’s. The chicken Marsala is our favorite along with Caesar salad. This time the chicken was a bit tough this one time but the outstanding bread pudding more than made up for it. Will definitely be back soon

    Good fun and a nice neighbourhood vibe but the food was to a basic level. Nice to have live music and a few show tunes. Nice staff with good energy.
