Joseph's Wine Bar & Cafe

Wonderful meal, the service was great and the atmosphere cozy and inviting

I have been to Joseph’s Wine Bar several times over the past few years. The ambiance is is just lovely. The food is really the best that I have eaten in Delray. The service is warm, personable and engaging. It’s a family run business and each family member seems invested in making sure you come back. My dinner was finger licking good from beginning to end. Bravo to Joseph and his family for his standout dining experience! I can’t wait to go back.

Like every visit to Joseph's Wine Bar & Cafe it was again very good food, pleasant service and had a good time. The owners are lovely people.

Excellent steak au poivre. Terrific tiramisu. Excellent wine list. Very warm and friendly atmosphere.

Terrific food,staff,chefs.Every detail of a dining experience was thoughtfully taken care of.The knowledge of their food and beverages was outstanding.

Just Terrific here. From start to finish. One of the best meals around!

Excellent experience!

Whenever we return to Delray the first restaurant we go to is Joseph's. The food is always wonderful. Service is excellent. You feel like you are visiting family. There is an amazing wine selection.

Canceled our hard to get reservation to Buccan to join Joseph and his family with our friends...and we were not disappointed. We’ve been walking by Joseph’s for many years, every time saying the same thing: we should stop by and check it out. We did and would like to hope that there will be a table for us when we return. Wine list is good, but the most impressive was the bartender. He didn’t have exact ingredients for one of our favorite and somewhat common cocktail. He asked a couple of questions. He listened. He understood and ...created a perfect new favorite! We asked him to repeat and he did. Food was delicious from the Mediterranean platter and other shareables to one of the ducks that I ever had. We were in a companyod a professional chef with engineering degree in food preparation and his own amazing creations. Even he admitted (and I concur since I was allowed to try) that Joseph’s rack of lamb deserves the highest marks. Even boring salmon was so good that it was not offered by one of us to share with others...not even a little taste...very suspicious or simply that well prepared. Overall a menu where chef doesn’t over think but executes everything to perfection.

This is a lovely place which features a nice wine and cocktail selection and serves a nice array of food choices. The owners are great and the outdoor street seating is great for South Florida. A definite cool locale.

Wonderful family dedicated to great food and outstanding service!

Amazing as always!

We have been following the success of this family-owned business for about years. They are a Lebanese family who deliver delicious food night after night. We brought friends who had never been who live in Boynton. It was a lovely night for sitting outside! We each had something different. The daughter is adorable and knowledgable! Our friend was so impressed that there was no TV at the wine bar itself. Conversation is not dead!

This restaurant never disappoints. Service is warm and friendly. Food is beyond outstanding. A total must when visiting Delray.

third or fourth time at Joseph's . Always great. Kind of place you want to make a regular habit of, so many great menu items and specials!! family run , they make you feel like family...

Joseph's was on my list of restaurants to try. I made a last minute reservation, however, when we got there and saw the place so full, I was surprised we were able to get a table. Not wanting to sit outside right on the street, we decided to sit at the bar which was a great decision. This is a family owned business and behind the bar were the son and daughter. Both were working amazingly hard as was their Dad who was doing some of everything. The drinks were excellent, the food was outstanding, and the personality of the owners was wonderful. Great attitude toward the customers. This was our first time at Joseph's and we were made to feel very comfortable. We love to see a family working together successfully and we are looking forward to our next visit.

This family owned restaurant was absolutely adorable inside and had incredible ambiance with a wall of wine and classy chandeliers. Their wine list is immaculate and the food was divine. The service was great and the owner is incredibly personable. Overall amazing experience.

This is a friendly family owned restaurant serving great food with a Mediterranean twist. The owner and family could not be friendlier. We were debating whether to try the humus as a starter, but ordered something different. Joseph overheard our conversation and brought us the humus to try. That attention to customer satisfaction is a trade mark of Joseph’s. We’ll definitely be back.

Really nice family run business. Food was delicious. A real nice experience

Excellent food and excellent service. Very impresssive wine list and wall bar rack. The owner ,Joseph, personally greats each guest and checks in on your dining experience. The tuna, duck and swordfish were delicious. Highly recommend it!!

Great food, service and a nice wine list at all price points. Makes a good manhattan

I have been to Joseph’s many times and it is always outstanding!

Joseph’s exceeded all our expectations. The service is some of the best I’ve ever had. Excellent wine and food. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed the experience: a first class host guided us through the decision process, recommended a great wine for main course. The food has a Mediterranean heritage and some classic dishes based on local fare.

First time at restaurant. Very friendly service combined with excellent food.
Will absolutely return again.

Always great
Food is wonderful
Best wine selection in town

The food and service were amazing. The food presentation was beautiful.
We tried the Duck and it was so delicious.
Highly recommend Joseph’s.

We had a great time. Loved the extensive wine list and the people were very nice.

My husband and I were in Delray Beach for business and came here for dinner. I am not sure I have enough words to express the AMAZING experience we had. This is a family business who cares deeply about the freshness and flavor of the food they prepare and serve . Fresh homemade bread, escargot, ahi tuna, Mediterranean lusciousness and specially handpicked wine. YUM. The service and attention to detail with regard to our needs was absolutely perfect. We will DEFINITELY go back. We are foodies--and this has topped our list as one of our VERY FAVORITES! A STAND OUT over all the others. We loved it! What a beautiful night. Thank you so much!!!!

Best restaurant in Delray

This is always one of our favorite spots when in Delray. You can’t beat the food or the family experience. Highly recommended

Amazing Family owned business!! I would recommend it to anyone :)

We have had several great meals here. However, this trip was not good. Every seat in the restaurant, and most of the outdoor seating, was full - and there were only 2 servers working. Waiting time was excessive for everything from getting menus to getting our check. I noticed that one table needed every item on the menu explained, and another took a lot of time (over 20 minutes) with the server selecting a bottle of wine, so of course service was not good for the rest of us.
My husband was served uncooked fish. The chef should have noticed. He was able to eat around the edges, but the interior was cold and gelatinous. He would have said something but we could not get the attention of a server because they were constantly busy (we waved and signaled multiple time to get someone's attention and no one assisted us). Finally, when I had finished my entree and our bottle of wine was done, a
server came over to check on us for the first time since serving the food. At that point the server offered to have it re-fired, but since I was done and the wine was gone, he refused and said just to take it away and we would pay for it (which we did). The server said she wished he had told her earlier, and we did not go into the signaling and waving we had done to try to get someone's attention.
I am not sure we will go to Joseph's again - and those we have told about this evening are not eager to try it. We will have to see. Net time when making a reservation we may ask how many servers will be working.

Update 10-20-2018: Best meal we have had in a long time anywhere. Joseph's was back up to the perfection we expect. Food (especially the filet) was perfectly cooked, salmon done just right, and service was excellent. The flourless chocolate cake was wonderful - clearly made with top quality chocolate. Complete turnaround from our experience in September, and our change in stars reflects this. Well done, Joseph! We'll see you again soon.

Excellent small restaurant, run by a nice family

I like this restaurant very much. The food is excellent and the owners very attentive.

everything amazing here not my first time I became a regular as I just moved from Parkland to East Delray!!! Love love everyone that works there. Food fresh organic tasty on point. Never a disappointment. Did I extremely funny

We stopped in after reading the good reviews. We decided to sit at the bar and were served by Romy (Joseph’s daughter). She was fabulous and is knowledgeable about wine. We ordered escargot, a Mediterranean app, rack of lamb, and salmon. Everything was delicious. We had a couple glasses of wine and the evening was complete!

Warm, comfortable, delicious. We were treated like old friends...and Joseph's son even remembered what food and wine I had ordered at last visit!
A jewel in Delray

Relaxed Atmosphere. Food is good and staff attentive.

Great evening with , friends , first time here , Joseph was great , impressive wine list
