My husband and I took his daughter here along with some other family members to celebrate her graduation from university. She had eaten at this restaurant before but we had not. I have celiac disease, require all food to be gluten free and am very afraid of cross contamination. There is only a select few “safe” restaurants I will eat at on a special occasions and this is now one I will add to my list! I was aware ahead of time of the food selection thanks to the website clearly listing their menu and dietary restrictions, however our server was VERY helpful and lovely. All items at the salad bar and hot table were clearly labeled with gluten, dairy, nuts, etc. and our server had fresh gluten free cheese buns brought out to me that had not sat next to the other regular bread to reduce risk of cross contamination (although both breads did not touch on the table).
Our party of five (except me) ate every type of meat there was and we all agreed that the grilled pineapple was simply the best ! I don’t eat a lot of meat and the salad bar selection was excellent along with an order of shrimp. The servers were all friendly, prompt and clearly hard working.
Our bill was steep but well worth it. The quality of food and drink is evident. We cannot wait to eat here again. Thank you for the excellent experience.
We had an absolutely beautiful dinner, excellent food and service.
The Gluten Conscious menu options were fantastic (Avocado Bowl!! 😋will come back for that again for sure!)
We always have a pleasant experience at Original Joe's. The food is good. Our kids are welcome. The prices are reasonable. The service is great. Dig the burgers and that dill dip for the fries..kids options are decent. My only ask would be more gluten free options. A dedicated fryer for gf items would attract a lot more people and give us more options for our celiac daughter. Even my parents, one is vegan and one is rather picky, both enjoyed their meals and want to come back and that never happens.
Thanks to our server Holly who was so attentive to fast and friendly service and helped to make sure we had a gluten free breakfast for my daughter both days we were there. She even remembered the order on day 2! Thanks for being awesome Holly!
Ordered 2 extra large and 1 gluten free last Thursday and they were really good! The person who had the gluten free said it was the best she ever had:)
