| - When you pull up and walk into this place you will initially be thrown off by the decor, which most closely resembles a holiday inn, and the clientele, which is 90% geriatric. You will also note the hoards of people waiting to be seated, always, at any time. So these things seem contradictory, odd even. Old people have time I guess, you think, so maybe that's why they wait. This place looks sort of pedestrian, but those desserts in the case look pretty f-ing good.
Here's the deal: Joe's is delicious. GIANT plates, but the fatoush or greek salad will knock your socks off - whatever they marinate that chicken in must contain narcotics. The sandwiches (also huge) are amazing. I was initially shocked at how fresh everything looked when it came out, but this family diner has pride.
To put the cherry on top, so to speak, the desserts here are about as good as it gets. The ebony & ivory and trio are spectacular. You will not be sorry. Everything is homemade and they sell it all so quickly, you don't have to worry about freshness.
Tables turn over really fast, so don't fret, take a seat, and save room for dessert.
