    I believe in reviews and never really have to write them, but last night was incredibly disappointing from the making of the reservation to the welcome, the service, the food and the atmosphere, it was all bad. The hostess and the server seem like they did not want to be there and not once did they act friendly. There were servers smoking vapes right near the kitchen and everything was out of order and not cleanly. The food tasted horrible. I had to make a reservation paying a deposit which was advertise for entertainment, but there was no entertainment. There was not even music playing in the restaurant when I asked about the deposit our unhappy server, asked with an attitude if we wanted glasses of wine. I sincerely hope that writing a truthful review is helpful.

    We had a great meal at Joanne's yesterday. Our food portions were generous and tasty. Highlights of the meal were the Alfredo sauce that was delicious. And don't skip the cannolis they were to die for. Overall a very enjoyable meal in a very cozy restaurant.

    Why did the reservation include a magician experience if there was magician? And the singer was trying her best but she was doing her own sound board which is nearly impossible. Food was wildly overpriced, beer obviously came from an uncleaned tap line, and the pasta that came with the chicken parm was inedible. The servers are lovely. Everything else was incredibly disappointing.

    Fabulous time at ‘Drag Me To Joanne’s’ for their wine and dine and drag extravaganza. Food is always perfect and served on time. Entertainment first class. Love a drag show and Jupiter was a top host. We’ll be back in June x

    Love what they've done with the patio for live entertainment while still keeping that neighborhood feel along with the great food and warm service. Bravo!
