   First of all, if you go on a busy night (like Saturday) prepare your patience for the parking situation. It took us :30 to get through the lot (3x circling) because the valet line was closed and the lot was in gridlock. After getting into the restaurant, we were offered some sparkling wine and they seated us within 5 minutes of arriving (with a reservation) - that's a win considering how busy they were. We first ordered the Szechuan Chicken Lettuce Wraps - 9.5/10, we both loved it! But apparently it was a tough act to follow because the rest of the meal was not great. I had the Mediterranean Bowl which was so overwhelmed by the hummus and the fatty skin of the chicken that you could barely taste anything else. My wife had the Spaghetti Pomodoro which was bland and somewhat flavorless according to her and the sample that I tried. We sat on the patio which was spacious and beautiful. Service was great considering the crowd that was in the house. Would I go back. Yes. Service and beautiful decor would draw me back for a 2nd chance. When would I go back. NEVER on a Friday or a Saturday night when the Galleria would be crowded. Would I order the same things, only the appetizer but absolutely NONE of the same main dishes.

   My family and I had an amazing time as always. We went on Friday to celebrate my son’s 8th Birthday as well as Mother’s Day. But was far as my son was concerned it was all about him. Our server Freedom did a great job. The ambiance was a vibe. We will definitely return!

   Upon entering we were greeted with a lovely welcome at the front. We were offered bubbles and were quickly seated at the table. Janae was our server and she was extremely personable as well as knowledgeable of the menu items we had questions about. Food came out in a timely manner and was delicious. 100% loved the experience. Will dine in again.

   Overall, pretty good experience. There was a mix up with the drinks we received at the table, but eventually got fixed. I was mistakenly charged for a beverage I didn’t receive but the server was great and got everything fixed quickly! Good was delicious and ambiance was great. Only downside is that we made this reservation specifically for a celebration, told our server, but he didn’t acknowledge or do anything celebratory.

   It was our first time to Joeys. The service was excellent. the food was good. The drinks were very over priced IMO. It was a classy restaurant but quite loud and chaotic. It just was not a relaxing experience. Thank you.

    Wife and I went for a date night. The ambiance was fantastic. When we arrived at the table, rose petals adorned the table. Our server Gabriel was fantastic. The food arrived quickly and the slush lemon tequila was on point. We will definitely be back!
