We loved Joe's American Bar and grill we dined at there other locations through the years, however this was my birthday 🎂 and so what a disappointment (the food was good I had the lobster roll however I didn't appreciate they put lettuce in it) and my wife loved their chicken salad and my daughter loved their Mac n Cheese dish but, what stays in our mind was the waitress she didn't seem cheerful on numbers of occasions she served us at our table when we asked her why so down she said "I worked last night" so just one customers opinion.

I had a nice time dining by myself. Staff was very friendly and the food was phenomenal. I had the crab crusted haddock and it was so delicious my mouth is watering thinking about it now. So light and fresh, and the sauce was perfect! Will definitely visit again

We really enjoyed the food, it was fresh and delicious. However, the service left a lot to be desired. I understand it was a busy day (Father’s Day), but our server’s attitude and demeanor felt rushed and inattentive. She seemed impatient while we were ordering, and it took a long time to get our drinks and even basic items like utensils. We were there to celebrate both my husband’s and brother-in-law’s birthdays, which we noted in our reservation. We even reminded the host and asked for a special birthday dessert. Unfortunately, while we saw other tables receive birthday treats, ours never came. The server brought us the check without us even asking, and when we inquired about the desserts, she simply said they had been taken to another table. It was a disappointing experience considering we were there for a special occasion.

Our server was wonderful. She was friendly, prompt and attentive. The food options were great and everything tasted great. Since it was Father's Day it was busy, but we didn't have to wait long at all...for anything!

I’ve never written a public review before but this place was so horrible that I have no choice but to warn people to stay away. Our food was cold. Literally the rice was like leftovers straight from the fridge. The kids fries were mushy. The waitstaff was unreachable. We asked for silverware and napkins after our food came and it took 10 minutes. The only positive in that was the food had a chance to come up to room temp vs. freezing cold. Don’t even bother here if you’re gluten free. The menu was mislabeled and staff was unclear on options.
