I went to Eat at Joe's yesterday and will definitely be going back. I wanted to try their food based off many recommendations and Shawn Kortes testimony. The staff was very hospitality and displayed great customer service even though they appeared short-handed. Myself and my daughter both enjoyed our meals. I got the Cowboy burger with potato salad. The burger was cooked to perfection, the bacon was crisp and the potato salad fresh, which completed the meal. My daughter got the fish & chips which was crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. Overall a great experience and not a big expense on the wallet. Would never have tried this place if I didn't hear about here on @hbquarantinecuisine.

Loved the place!! We sat outside on a Saturday around 1:30 pm to enjoy the weather! Very nice atmosphere. We had a party of 16 and we did called for reservations. Tables were already set when we got there. Waitress was very attentive and helpful, took all of our orders and all orders came out accurate. Food was ready in about 15 minutes or so. They also have seating inside plus bar seating and TV’s and the walls. My Double Joe Burger with bacon was very good, it tasted fresh, crispy bacon and delicious and juicy burger patty. As far as I know, everyone enjoyed their food as well. No complaints at all.

02-25-23 Came in today for a meeting of our motorcycle club... because of the rain we couldn't ride. Haven't been here for awhile. 5 in our group today. We ordered an appetizer while we waited for the stragglers. It was pretty quiet (no music playing yet) easy to talk and have a discussion as we planned our next ride. We ordered our meals, then they turned on the music... that's ok no problem. After awhile it changed, got very loud, heavy bass, we couldn't hear each other talk without yelling. I mentioned it to the staff, just that it was too loud, turn it down a little, they turned it off. OK, fine. A few minutes later they turned it back on at the same loud volume...so much for keeping your customers happy...I mean people are there for talking, sharing a meal, having a discussion and visiting,,,not for the concert volume music...a little background soundtrack is all you need. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ We love this place, it's our unofficial biker club meeting place. Always a good time. 4 stars 'cause nobody's perfect. At our last meeting for lunch. The waitress asked how is everything? I mentioned that the fries came out cold. She went and got a GIANT basket of HOT! fries (on the house). ... maybe they should get 5 stars!! TRY THE "TRIPLE BYPASS BURGER"!!!

Great place. Lady eating next to me bet that I couldn't take a whole bite of the triple bypass. She must not have noticed that I ordered an entire 8" pizza for myself next to my girlfriend. Mere child's play.

Looking for a leisure dinner at a bar/local diner spot? Look no further. This place was delicious and the staff was incredibly kind. I consider myself a Club Sandwich connoisseur and this place has one of the best Club Sandwiches I have ever had. Their fries had a great consistency. My husband had a cheeseburger and fries, also spot on. Will be returning :)

I was pleasantly surprised! The restaurant was really busy so service was a bit slow but our waitress, who I didn't get her name unfortunately was pretty freaking awesome! She was patient understanding, kept our drinks pretty full. Never letting it go all the way to the bottom. I got the Italian special sandwich, with housemaid chips. It was tasty! I had it warm, and it came with the little cup of what I think is an Italian vinaigrette. Yum! Yum! The house chips, crispy and not too salty at all! I saw the people next to our table have some ice cream, looked creamy and enticing. Going to have to take my boys to go try it out. Definitely a great place to eat, and catch a game!
