   It had been some time since we dined at Josephine's - so glad to have been back at the holidays. The restaurant was beautifully decorated and we were seated in a back room that had customers at each table but was very quiet and allowed us to have our own conversation and be easily heard. I dined on the special, rack of lamb, and my wife had the Salmon Oscar. Both absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly. The starter dish of homemade bacon was divine. We ended with dessert - lemon meringue and the mint/chocolate dessert (name is escaping me at the moment). Our server was attentive and pleasant and even went out of his way to grab our coats for us before we left. Always enjoy coming to Josephine's!

   Great solo dining experience. My waiter Brandon was fun and energetic. Gave great recommendations on what to try for my 1st time at the restaurant. I decided to order Josephine’s 8oz filet with a glass of wine. Food was delicious. Customer service from all staff members were great. Nice ambiance (IG picture worthy)

   We go to Josephines for special events, and last night we went for a belated Thanksgiving dinner. As always, the food, service, and ambience were top notch. The four of us had, among other things, oysters, scallops, tuna, lamb. We loved every bite, and appreciated our server’s thoughtful wine advice. All in all a 10 out of 10. Of course we’ll be back!

   We had absolutely amazing experience. Josephine’s is my personal favorite in the downtown area, especially at Christmas. We invited friends for a first time. From drinks to appetizers to entrees to dessert, everything was delicious! Our server was excellent and extremely knowledgeable of the menu and the ambiance was top notch with Christmas music being played on the piano and bass throughout our meal.

   As usual, all of our dining experiences have been outstanding at Josephine's and last evening was no exception . The decor is warm and lovely at any time of year , but especially so during the holiday season. The two gentlemen who play the grand piano and standing bass after 7 p.m. are an added bonus to the ambiance. To be honest, if one does the full dining experience with multiple courses as well as a cocktail or two and/or a glass or bottle of wine, it might very well be too expensive for the budget conscious but it is certainly worthy of splurging for the occasional celebration of some type including, but not limited to, birthdays and anniversaries. Our server, Brandon , was only 2 days out of training , but he performed his duties well . He was both personable and professional. The entire staff is always welcoming and affable. We look forward to many more celebratory dinners at Josephine's in the future.
