    Went for brunch with girlfriends. Sat in front of the kitchen. A little loud but totally normal in that spot. Our server, Bailey, was great! She would come back to the table and top off our mimosas (we had a bottle at the table) and allowed us time to chat and enjoy our time which was so nice since that was our sole purpose of going out for brunch. The farmers breakfast was delicious. The jalapeño cheddar biscuits were out of this world and the grits were perfect. Their orange juice is likely fresh squeezed (not confirmed but tasted so). Top notch and will definitely go again.

    My family had a really good experience going here on Christmas. The wait was not too long considering the holiday and our server was absolutely amazing. Even though the kitchen was backed up our server did a fantastic job checking up on us periodically. The food was well worth the wait. For our first time at Joe’s we were very pleased and will be returning.
