   Like many others I’ve had Joe Beef on my bucket list every since Anthony Bourdain visited them. I loved my experience and the food was good, but it is a one and done (for me) type of place. I’m very happy I went and would encourage any others to go at least once. The bartender and staff were amazing. Some of the best service I’ve ever had. The entrees/starters were pretty disappointing. But the mains (Lobster spaghetti and also hanger steak au poivre) along with dessert were all very delicious.

   The food and service was very good for a casual and slightly elevated meal. Leave some room for a cheese plate for dessert which was a pleasant surprise in terms of quality and taste.

   Tried calling several times to let them know we were stuck in traffic and running 10 minutes late - no answer. When we arrived I mentioned this after apologizing and the hostess replied with a very obviously rude undertone “We don’t answer the phone during dinner service.” (All of this was in French and I do not believe I was at all rude). Ok, but why ask people to call and let you know if you are running a little late? Table server was far more polite. Oysters & shrimp were delicious. Mains however were so over seasoned they were hard to eat, and we like salt! Overall underwhelmed sadly.
