    Great time to go on a holiday, very few patrons, very pleasant waitress, very good food. Just a little pricey. But a 4 star everytime or more.

    Meals were great and cooked exactly as requested. Could have used refills on drinks sooner than when the server came back to check. We had been empty for a while. Other than that, server and service/food was great.

    Terrific service.. Ordered Greek wedge w chicken. Salad was good, delicious tzatziki sauce. Unfortunately, grilled chicken was dry. Chicken was removed from the bill.

    As usual, NYA Joe's served food which fits their description of casual, creative cuisine. The January special of Vietnamese Salmon was delicious, as were the chicken lettuce wraps. The foccacia with dipping oil was excellent, as usual. The steak tip entree was cooked to perfection and was a generous portion. January special dessert of creme brulee was delicious. Our server was attentive and personable. Overall we were pleased with our dining experience. Our only regret is that there is not a NYA Joe's location closer to our home - all of them are more than 1 hour drive from where we live in northeast CT.

    We were seated right away. Our server came over immediately and bread was brought out with our drinks. Food was quick and delicious and the restaurant was very busy. One of our favorite restaurants so we will be back!

    Menu choices are excellent, lots of variety. The service could have been a little quicker, but still satisfactory. The one disappointment was the draft beer choices. The list was small and no real winter beers (porter or stout). We will definitely return.

    The stuffing of the turkey dinner was a bit on the salty side.
