    We have dinner at Jooanne’s routinely on Friday evenings for the cabaret acts and as always the food, drinks and ambience. ALWAYS a great time with a family- friendly vibe. Highly recommend the Lavender Blomde, Espresso Marrtini or Limoncello Martini to kick things off :)

    My bestie and I try to visit Joanne as often as possible. Food, service, and ambiance is always perfection. Owner always makes it a point to say hi to us and see how we’re liking everything. Love how this place has turned into a wonderful spot for emerging nyc artists!!

    Must be a new chef. Everything tasted terrible. Way too much sauce, huge portions, poor presentation. There was some strange networking event with loud music and big group right next to our table. On the other hand, our waitress was so kind, supportive, and helpful.

    The food was delicious, the service was very pleasant and attentive and the ambience was ideal for a pre opera dinner.

    Honestly my experience overall was amazing. One of my drinks was great - garden of Eden. One was just ok - lavender blonde. I would say the food was ok but honestly the experience was so great and I love lady Gaga and I’m so happy to support her family! :))

    We had always wanted to try Joanne's. While I appreciate the upbeat vibe and friendly atmosphere, the noise level was so loud we literally could not hear anything anyone was saying. The cabaret night then added to that noise level. But the real problem was the decibel level of everyone talking in such a small space. We had to shout to hear each other. And the food was just ok.

    Cosy family feel with great food and fabulous live entertainment. The Drag show on Wednesdays is a lot of fun. I had mom's lemon artichoke chicken and it was excellent.
