   Very nice Saturday night dinner. We had not been to Joe's in a long time. Too bad the employees don't dance anymore.

   We enjoyed three excellent meals. Our server took our picture, and it was OK that we didn't have to pay extra for the restaurant to do it.

   Made a reservation but it wasn’t needed as there were hardly any people during 1pm on a Saturday. The scenery was nice with the ocean view. The waiter was very nice and attentive. The calamari & fish bowl margarita were great however my husband had the Joes Sampler and had an allergic reaction and broke out in hives so unfortunately will not be able to return.

   $100.00 Dinner selection was way overcooked!!! Shrimp rubbery, hard to chew. Fish over fried, dry and hard. Almost like they were prefried, then sat for a bit under hot lamp, then fried again! crab legs and butter ice cold, salad greens were turning "rusty" from age.we didn't return food so asc to not create a scene. Our waitress was very attentive. The cook needs to learn to cook seafood!

   The place is dated. It wasn’t busy and our server hardly stopped back once we got our meals

   The service was not good at all. There was only one server in the whole restaurant area and she was running around doing too much. She never came back to our table to check on us. I had to get up two times to get some service from the Manager and others walking around,so this visit was not good for us.

    Standard chain seafood. It was within walking distance of our hotel. Food was good. Service was good. Nothing extraordinary. I didn’t expect wonderful. I got good. I enjoyed my clam chowder more than expected.
