Original Joe’s Restaurant & Bar - Edmonton, Alberta

Very impressed. Service was great, food was excellent and though they weren't too busy, it was nice with the quiet. It's normally a very hopping place so lunch on a weekday is the way to go. Check them out, it's excellent.

**Update** After posting this review, I received an email from the Guest Experience Office for OJ's and in turn they shared my comments with the GM of the OJ's we had visited. I was very pleased with the GM's response to my concerns, and he has asked that I give ... them another try, which I will do so in the near future. I do believe their willingness to take feedback says who they are as a company and definitely the GM for this OJ's location is very serious on providing the best possible service for their customers! Thank you, Clint! +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ We decided to drop in to OJ's for a bite to eat and a drink. It was not really busy so seating was no issue. Our server Julia was very friendly and helpful. The beer was great!! Nice and Cold! The food was just ok. Normally I don't bother ordering burgers when I go out as they can be messy, however I decided to try one during this visit. I ordered the Original and my wife ordered the Baja Fish Taco's. My wife thought the tacos were fine but not the expected taste (usually they have a bit of a kick). The fries (I thought the serving of fries was small) and onion rings were good. The burger tasted like it was a frozen commercial type that was overcooked. There was a very small dollop of sauce and lettuce. Overall, it was very dry. I did ask for ketchup and mustard to help but by the time I got it, the burger was no longer warm and overall, it was very disappointing. Our server apologized and did ask if she could replace it, but I declined as it was getting late. I thought the presentation of the food was good. Our server did provide a discount on the bill, so I know she tried to help. We are thankful of her kindness. I have had much worse food at other places, so we will try OJ's again. Read more

I don’t go here much anymore as I thought the portion sizes were shrinking at same and escalating $$$. The actual weight of the “one pound of wings” adjust for container and veggies is 10-7/8 of a pound which is 2/3 of 16 ounces, the servers automatically state that is ... B4 cooking- however even if I accept this the amount of sauce added back should nearly offset this. Earls tried this then had to change their menu due to my review. I did my own experiment and over 10+ trials it is consistent see photos and captions Read more

Been to this location multiple times and the food is always fresh, the beer is always cold and fresh and the service is great! Never disappointed with our experience. The only reason why I'm giving not 5 stars for the food is because I feel the butter chicken could have ... had more chicken. Everything else I've gotten there had great portions. Was still tasty though! Read more

We had a reservation for 16 people. Our waitress was friendly, but we just kept having miss haps. Drinks were slow coming out. Food came out so randomly. I got my appetizer with my main meal. Anything that came from the deep fryer tasted like just oil. I heard good ... things about the food, so maybe larger groups, not the best Read more
