This was our first visit, but not our last. The pasta dishes were very good, and large. Service was impeccable. Looking forward to trying wood fired pizza on next visit!Vegetarian options: There are some offerings, and some dishes can be customized to accommodate your needs.

We have recently moved to the area and have eaten a Joe's a few times. The food is delicious. My husband loves the pizza and my favorite is the chicken scallopini. We also enjoyed the chicken parmigiana and the penne rustica.Joe often comes to our table and makes us feel very welcome and appreciated. We have taken business associates with us as well and they enjoyed it as well.

This was a nice local owned place it seemed like. My only issue was there is basically nothing but salad for gluten free. But my husband and son seemed to enjoy it!

This was our first time trying this place. it was 130pm on a Sunday. there wasn't many customers, and one server. she was coughing constantly, which I u deratand if that is the one server they may have. That wasn't the issue. We ordered the Build You Own, I chose the rustics sauce, which came out as the spicy Milano, and then Alfredo with some veggies and chicken, the spinach wasn't in it, so she had to take it back. And then a Meat Lovers Calzone. When it was time to pay the bill, she asked if we needed anything else and I said the meat lovers calzone, and she said we don't have meat lovers calzones, only pizza...?...so I said well we had order that from the beginning, and if a place has a pizza, they can make a calzone. Ijs. The food was warm-hot which was good but not much flavor, that I would expect from an Italian cuisine. Just disappointed on my first experience.

The eggplant was delicious, it was cut thick and served with angel hair pasta with marinara. My friend got the veggie pizza, which was also really good!

That was the worst food ever. Garlic bread looked like they ran to Walmart and got it. Waitress never asked if everything was ok. Save your money and time!!!

Not as good as when they were in Athens. Alfredo sauce was like water. The beer was good though!

The most wonderful Caesar salad, vegetable calzone and barbecue chicken pizza I have ever eaten. Service was excellent! The owner is very personable and a great chef! We will frequent this business often!

The place was nice. The waitress super sweet but unfortunately the food was terrible. Was supposed to be alfredo but was just water and grease with no flavor. The meat was an odd gray color. Hopefully just a bad night.

Joe’s Italian Cuisine used to be our go to for pizza. Brick oven pizza is on a whole different level! However, the past few visits have been hit or miss. The pizza has either been cooked right, not cooked long enough, or cooked way too long. The constant inconsistency resulted in us finding a different go to spot.

Awful. I’ve never had lasagna so overcooked and with no taste. The water I ordered smelled and tasted terrible. The outside seating/patio looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in months. It’s August and there’s still dead leaves on the patio. Broken chairs, railings, and umbrellas. Service wasn’t bad but not great.

Our take out order was cold, tasteless, overcooked. Poor quality less than fast food but higher prices. Never go there, please.

This place has truly gone downhill and we won't be back. I wish I'd taken pictures, but we were focused on ending what turned out to be a terrible dinner on our anniversary so we could go someplace else for dessert.The service was fine. The lady who has waited on us before did an OK job and I don't think much of this was her fault, although anybody should have noticed how burned our garlic bread, garlic knots, and part of my wife's chicken parm was.The food was mediocre at best, and terrible at worst. The garlic knots we ordered as an appetizer came out when we were halfway through our dinner. They were burned black on the bottom and so dark on top that anyone looking at them would know they were overcooked. They were also higher priced on the ticket than the menu.The Alfredo sauce was so bland as to be flavorless. The lasagna was mediocre. My wife's chicken parm was burned black on one corner, but oddly undercooked on the bottom. One piece of garlic bread was black on both sides and the other was black on one and near burned on the other.We liked Joe's in the past and that's why we decided to have our anniversary dinner there. What we ended up getting for our $77 was terrible and we won't be back.
