| - My visits to Joy Bistro has mainly been for breakfast.
The main selling feature during the summer are the two large patios - one on each side of the restaurant. This is great for catching some sun while eating. As a dog owner, it's also nice to be able to have them right nearby rather than leaving them at home.
I usually end up going here because there's ample seating, while the lines over at Lady Marmalade are just much too long for us.
The food is usually pretty good. I go for the Eggs Benedict. They've changed the menu up a few times, but there are always a few items that I enjoy. On the food alone, Joy Bistro is probably 4 stars.
On the other hand, the service here is consistently bad. The get the basics wrong. When one of us asks for water, and the waiter says "ok", it shouldn't take another 20 minutes for him to bring you water. I'd be much happier with this place if they could simply keep my water glass full.
When we are finished our meal,there is a very long wait for the bill, even after you ask for it.
They've also frequently gotten one of our orders wrong.
The servers aren't rude, they just seem confused. They don't seem to be particularly understaffed, either - so I'm not sure what the issue is.
Other than that, Joy is a passable breakfast destination, with a great patio to enjoy.
