This the second time Food quality was poor. Previous hamburger not properly cooked after two tries. This current visit pizza bottom burnt in most slices. Waitress inattentive and service level disingenuous. Rushing us off, not a comfortable feeling. Poor service! Waitress a mature women with light colored hair.

Nearby person was on cell for about a half hour. Very annoying but I don’t know how you deal with that situation. After she had left we talked with your waitress and hostess. Very sympathetic and gave us a gift card. Some people just don’t have good manners!

Always a great experience, but our waitress just made it 10x’s better. My daughter loved when our waitress would come to the table! Our waitress would come down to my daughters level, to say hi, hold her hand, and play with her every time she came to our table (it was so sweet to watch). I always love going to Joe’s, but I love it even more because of our kind waitress! I will always go back because of the kind people like her!!

I was thrilled to hear that this is the original Not Your Average Joe’s restaurant because I had always loved that restaurant. They have retained all of the great menu items and added a few more. The food was great and very reasonable. I had the mixed greens salad w goat cheese and raspberries. I added chicken to it and it was my meal. My daughter had the chicken piccata and said it was the best she had ever had. My son had steak tips. They were cooked perfectly. The server was attentive and personable. We will be back.

The food was outstanding I tried one of the specials which I remember from the past and I was not disappointed at all. My husbands beef tips were perfect as well. We will be back.

Great service—very professional and friendly. Thai and steak salad was very good; the chicken enchiladas were good but would prefer them without the sauce—it’s pretty rich and detracts from other ingredients. Overall a very nice evening out.
Joe's Original Kitchen + BarResponded on July 31, 2023
Thank you for your review. Our enchiladas can be made without the sauce, for future reference- just ask for sauce on the side or none at all! We are happy to make them just how you like them. See you soon!

The Waldorf Salad is the reason why I am able to dine at Joe’s Original at least once a week. It has the freshest romaine lettuce and grapes and apples along with dried cranberries and sugared pecans and grilled chicken on the top with some smoked mozzarella. I ask for olive oil and fresh lemons to use as my dressing. The bread is baked fresh daily in the restaurant and it’s delicious .

Delish Bread and EVOO dip as usual. Great service from female bartender. Chicken lettuce wraps were delish as usual and reissuing was cold and crisp. My super crunch salad (I’d never ordered before) is something that I’d definitely come back for again. My husband’s mustard crusted chicken was salty, thin and dry.

Always a winner. Service was a little slow, but I can’t put that on the server. She was fun and attentive. Always now, not enough help seems to be the issue everywhere. I expect good food and it was. You need to make a reservation here because it is always busy. That should tell you something.

Great Service , All the food was great except my pizza , I asked for light cheese and it came burnt on bottom and looked like they forgot to put light cheese on my pizza. Only had a few slices. Ordered desserts and the kitchen added some balsamic glace to the strawberry shortcake which really soured the dessert. Finally the Manager came over with gift card and comped the items. But I had hoped he would have come back to the table first before he comped anything. We asked the server for the dessert to go. We could have gone to a lot of other places that night to celebrate but we chose Joes We might reconsider the next time. Hope this helps

I love Joe’s but this wasn’t one of my favorite visits. My husband meal was as expected and he was very pleased. I am gluten free, so ordered a lobster roll with gf roll. The person delivering the meal was kind. Just prior to placing the meal on the table, the top of the gf roll fell to the floor. No problem, staff returned to kitchen to get another… problem. Returned with a microwaved replacement, not toasted, inedible. Crumbled and you could not even pick up as it just fell apart. They were so busy, I just ate the lobster. HEADs UP Chefs, always toast GF bread. Most are always frozen and toasting them keeps the bread from falling apart. Everything else was great! TY

I invited my brother and sister to join me at your restaurant and had a huge success offering the Ahi tuna wontons. They couldn’t have been fresher & delicious, plus the lovely Thai chicken wraps were fresh and crispy. Then we remarked about the tasty clam chowder only to realize that it had been an award-winning recipe from THE BLACK WHALE! We couldn’t stop talking about the bread and garlic, red pepper, OLIVE OIL dip… And when are deserts arrived, Keylime, pie and strawberry shortcake. We were beside ourselves with joy how absolutely fabulous. !!!!

Joe’s is usually our “ go to “ lunchtime dining place whenever my friend drives down from the Cape for a visit. A sandwich and salad selection never disappoints. We had an absolutely superb waitress, who was extremely attentive. It was so lovely, sitting outside under the umbrella, taking in the colorful flower boxes on a nice sunny day.
