| - Joeys is alright. It's everything you'd expect from an eatery at the mall except with hotter waitstaff.
I came here after work on a Friday.
Yes, the waitstaff is smoking hot... but the patrons are not.
Because of the location, there is a mixed crowd of mall goers, students, and professionals. Even though the venue is gorgeous, the vibe was weird.
If I'm going out for after work drinks, I don't usually want to be seated around shoppers and kids... Replace suits at the bar with dudes with baseball caps and reusable shopping bags.
I put my heels back into my bag and put on my flat walking shoes I use for the TTC.
However, I did enjoy my wine and the food is pretty decent.
The fish tacos were the best thing we ordered.
Crispy, fresh, and light. They were amazing!
We ordered wings and they were tiny. Only one choice of sauce.
Don't come here for wings.
The lobster brie grilled cheese seemed like a good idea. The first bite is delicious. After a while, you just feel a bit gross... And then there's a super salty aftertaste that makes you want to brush your teeth like 5 times.
The fries were magically good. I wonder if they deep fry them in crack, because they were addictive.
Overall, it's not a bad spot, I can see why other people like it.
The service was great and the menu is huge!
However, for after work drinks, I'm still heading down to King street.
Joeys is just not a spot for me.
