First time visiting Jacksonville Beach, Florida, on our last night there. we had dinner at Joe's crab shack. We were greeted with a smile, told it would be an hour wait, but we were seated way before that. Our awesome server was Jonathan. It was an extremely busy night, but it did not stop him from being so nice and on point with our order. He explained the questions we had about the menu and made some suggestions. He made sure to keep coming back to our table and check on us before the food arrived. As busy as it was, I watched him take care of everyone he served with a smile and professionalism. It's nice to see that kind of service in extremely busy environments. Every single plate we ordered was very delicious, kudos to everyone that was part of our experience, including the chef, my grandchild who is 11 asked Jonathan to let the chef know his plate was very delicious he did a great job. By the way, it was my 9 - and 11 year old grandchildren first experience trying out crab legs, and they loved it. Keep up your great work, Jonathan.
Came to Joes for lunch with coworkers. The service was a little slow for the amount of other tables in the restaurant (1 inside and maybe 1 or 2 outside). The food was ok but the drinks were great. I would recommend coming here to grab some drinks and an appetizer at the bar or if you wanted to sit outside close to the beach.
Was asked by the Owner to leave a more detailed message at the LANDRY Web site...did so but what could be more detailed than my very negative review....👎 There's three warning signs when you pull up to a Seafood Restaurant right on the beach on a warm sunny Friday evening. Plenty of parking... plenty of seating...NO LEMON'S 🍋!!! We ignored the signs and paid for it. Parking is not an issue as was the seating and the service of first day on the job Elly was outstanding and she was the only 5 ⭐. Ordered Unsweetened Tea...no lemon, Bill ordered Vodka...no lemon...HAY MANAGER send someone to Costco or Walmart to pick some up! Ordered the Crab Stuffed Mushrooms as an appetizer... remember Clara Peller yelling "Where's the Beef??" Well where's the Crab 🦀. Tried three of the five and sent it back as the stuffing was 90% bread crumbs. I ordered the mussels, shrimp, clam potatoes and corn came out dry with paprika sprinkled all over the place an unappealing 3 ⭐. Bill ordered a seafood mixture OMG it was terrible Stuffed Crab was again Bread crumbs, fried fish was oily and bland and fries 🍟 were cool and soggy so 0 ⭐ and sent back. Asked for the manager who tried to explain that all stuffing has some filling... come on man, this isn't my first meal in a Seafood Restaurant. Offered Bill another choice but he decided against going 0 for 3 and didn't have dinner. Look, this is a great location with great views and nice people that work there but unless the manager starts to taste the food will find more low reviews. Let me also add a couple with a family sat by us and in a non busy place was waiting for service and getting ready to leave but we called over Elly and asked her to please find the server for this section and table... another 0 ⭐.
This was my first time at this location and let me tell you. The food was absolutely horrible. It was my twin niece and nephew birthday I hate that there were so many issues with our food. Our appetizer( calamari, pictured) was cold and you could tell had been sitting. My mother returned her entrée once to be corrected and the next time it was worse it was returned and taken off the order. My older niece barely touch anything on her plate and returned it. The shrimp was not devained on my twin niece shrimp and the sausage was not even cut up. Just a whole sausage. Give me a piece of white bread and that sausage and I could have had a better meal that the one served to me and my family. My shrimp that was supposed to be peeled and butterflied was cold and some weren’t even peeled. There was NO SEASONING or real flavor on the crab legs. The server we had was good but the food was a 0 out of 10. And to top it off the building wasn’t even packed out. Shame and a sham in my opinion.
Really nice views from the balcony and the restaurant itself has some cool merchandise. The food was fine and the staff were polite. Quirky place, if you like seafood look no further.
It was easy to get a table for lunch. I felt like it didn't take long to receive our orders. I enjoyed my meal platter of crab, fish, and shrimp. My food was delicious.
Five stars for the service and atmosphere! You are paying for the service and atmosphere! I’ve gone to better restaurants and spent $50 for more crab than I got here. Our server made us laugh and he was very observant! Otherwise the food was good!
We had a party of four last night. Our server was Gabe and he was fantastic!! We were seated immediately and ordered our drinks and food. The food was amazing and came out quickly and piping hot. Highly recommended for food, the service and atmosphere.
