Customer Review Summary

Diners consistently highlight the warm hospitality and complimentary champagne greeting as defining touches of the experience, with many describing the welcome as a memorable part of the evening. Service earns repeated praise across reviews, with multiple guests noting attentive, knowledgeable servers who pace meals well and offer thoughtful recommendations. The steak and sushi are singled out as go-to dishes that "never fail on good flavor and quality," and the spicy crab dip, hibachi wings, and Korean fried cauliflower come up as popular starters. The espresso martini and strawberry lemonade also draw positive mentions. A few reviewers note that some dishes lean salty or that certain items, like toast with the crab dip, can arrive a bit burnt. One diner appreciated when a server reassured her that wine in a cooked sauce had been cooked out after she was concerned about an accidental slip in her sobriety. Several suggest booking ahead for special occasions and note that the valet service is quick on busy nights.

    Went here for my son's surprise engagement dinner and everything was phenomenal. From the start with valet service to the hostess offering complimentary champagne. Our 1 waiter for our ever growing party was AMAZING 👏🏾 ... Kevyn thank you so much for everything we really appreciate everything you and the staff did for us. The food was so good .. our tomahawk was cooked to perfection. The potatoes a must try 😋 We counted it as a date night too cause the atmosphere was so romantic
  • Dyala Khayat
    I had a great experience at Joey Uptown. The service was excellent, and Jorge and David really made the visit even better with how attentive and friendly they were. They made sure everything was perfect and checked in at just the right times. My favorite dishes were the blackened chicken and the sushi roll — both were absolutely delicious and full of flavor. Everything came out fresh and well prepared. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!
  • Briana Satcher
    I had such a wonderful time at Joey Uptown! My server was Malina and she was the sweetest, most attentive person! If you come here, make sure you ask for her. The atmosphere is aesthetically pleasing and the food is equally good. You won’t be disappointed!
  • Asia Taylor
    I had an amazing experience at Joey’s Restaurant thanks to our incredible waitress Malina! From the moment we sat down, she was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. She made great recommendations, and kept everything running smoothly without ever making us feel rushed. You can really tell she cares about giving customers a great experience. Her positive attitude and professionalism made our meal even better. It’s service like this that keeps people coming back! If you visit Joey’s, I hope you’re lucky enough to get Malina as your server. Actually, ASK FOR! She truly goes above and beyond. Thank you for making our girls night so enjoyable!
  • China Stubblefield
    Our server Ariel was so nice and knowledgeable about the menu (one of the best qualities when it comes to a hostess) food was delicious and well portioned. Atmosphere was nice and smooth. Drinks were delicious and not too heavy. Will definitely be back!
