Unfortunately not the experience we were hoping for on our special anniversary celebrations. The service was very slow and it seemed there weren’t enough staff present. My husband's ribeye steak was inedible as it was 70% gristle and should never have been served. We were offered a replacement but given the speed of service the rest of us would have been finished before he got a replacement. Given the cost of the steak and the experience of the chef they should have known the cut should have been rejected. Had visited Joeys the week before in Toronto where the service and food was on a different scale. Won’t hurry back.

I haven't been to this location in a long time and I was pleasantly surprised. They updated their menu and are always finding ways to be more innovative. I went with a friend for dinner and I ordered the mini steak French dips and ravioli bianco. She ordered the hummus and the s'mores ice cream pie. Everything was beyond delicious and we'll definitely be back.

Staff was exceptional. Kady was our server and was very friendly and prompt. Appetizers (gyoza and sushi cones) and mains (cod and blackened chicken) were delicious. Great vibe for a Sat night date.

Never coming back , the hostess gives very bad energy when you come in , everyone is so hostile from the hostess to the server even the bill, they hoard all the good table & closed down the dining section although people were there which was very unprofessional.

Booked a table for dinner. Shared the Korean cauliflower starter which was more then enough for two. It was spicy, nicely cooked and very tasty. Then had the cod and the fish tacos. Both were generous portions and very nice. Shared an apple pie for dessert which was outstanding. Deliciously ceisp.

We had booked dining room weeks in advance, we understand sometimes you can’t accommodate and we asked for it and whoever was seating us said it was all booked and its full. My husband asked when it will become available l, and i asked if there was a booth available at bar/lounge side her one and only response was “OKAY FINE” in extremely aggressive way. She could have said no booths available, and i would have been totally fine. She walked fast to seat us and threw our menus on the table and walked off before we even got to our table. What a terrible person, literally for no reason got aggressive and threw the menus on the table without saying a work and took off!

Table of 5 served by Gabriella this past Sunday, she had exemplary customer service and was incredibly attentive. She made the experience even better with her energy and positive attitude. The food was very good and so were the drinks, our group went and enjoyed their happy hour service, we will all be back.
