   Dined in on Tuesday evening, I come here every so often but last nights experience was fantastic. On Tuesdays they do half price wine bottles which paired nice with our free taster of champagne, the manager Izzy opened our bottles for us and chatted with the table. Service was fast and friendly with a great late night happy hour, will be back again soon!

   My experience at Joey kitchen was good. The servers, Shayla and Myles, went above and beyond to ensure the satisfaction of my guests was far beyond met. The food itself was good, will be coming back for the exceptional service.

   It was later in the evening, maybe 9:30. There were many tables full, but not crowded. People were still coming in. We were seated out of order, but not being busy, we didn't think it was an issue. Once seated, I asked that we could be re-seated next to a table that had working heaters. No problem. After getting our menus, we didn't get table service for easily 10 minutes. The staff stood around chatting with their backs to us. After taking our order, drinks eventually came. We have no idea why the drinks took so long. Then, all the food came at one, including the appetizer that should have arrived with the drinks or soon after. It was blatantly obvious the young women weren't the least bit interested in doing their job. It was seriously frustrating and disappointing. After a long day, our including travel, the least a server could do is serve the table they're assigned.

   Hi Christina, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at JOY University Village. We’re truly sorry to hear about the service you received, that’s not the standard we strive for. Your feedback about the delays, lack of attentiveness, and the timing of your food is being taken seriously. We appreciate you pointing this out, and we hope you’ll consider giving us another chance to provide the kind of experience you deserve. I will share my email address privately and would love to invite you back as my guest. I look forward to hearing from you! Best, Gisele J | Day Manager

   As always a great dining experience but perplexed over why they remove favorites from the menu such as the crab cakes and sliders which were best sellers as well.

    I came in with a group of friends around dinner time, food was great, service was excellent, and we will definitely be coming back. Our host Amber was a delight. She was so welcoming, offered us complementary champagne, and sat us with no wait. Overall great experience.
