Original Joe’s Restaurant & Bar - Surrey, British Columbia

Fruit flies galore. Also a few black flies at my table too. It’s super upsetting and unappetizing having bugs flying all over your dinner and fruit flies in your mojito that is missing the mint? Asked where they are coming from, they said the bar because it is hot. Having ... worked in many bars, I have never seen that before and am confused as to how heat creates fruit flies, pretty sure ive never had fruit flies when my home was hot. Also should have mentioned it was the worst mojito I have had in my life , there was no muddled mint - just a rum soda with maybe a squirt of lime for show but probably not even that honestly ? and food was definitely nothing to brag about. Food was about half as good as anything I would make at home myself as a mom who is def not a chef of any kind. This was a next level waste of time and money definitely would recommend going anywhere else but here, I know I won’t be back. Read more

A favourite of mine. I have been multiple times and it's always fantastic experience. It's never lined up out the door so it's always an easy choice for a last minute lunch/dinner out. Staff is always friendly, attentive and food is consistent! Also, their patio is dog friendly! That's a new discovery for ... me and will make it easier for future visits for me. Read more

Ordered the ACE burger with fries and salad, and Fish Tacos. The tacos were the best food I’ve had there. The burger was really good, but the prices were a bit high. The drinks were really good, I’d go back again just for them.

I had a very good experience first time at this restaurant. Our server Jace was very attentive, efficient and friendly. What added to our great experience was that our bill was picked up by amazing people anonymously! Wow what a nice surprise! I only wish that we could’ve thanked them personally. I will ... remember to pay forward and know how great it feels to be on both sides! Thanks again. Read more

I think this restaurant is more of a 3.5 if anything but all satisfactory stuff. The interior was clean with a mix of booths and tables. We went one evening and it was relatively dead inside and for such a big place I hope it isn’t always like that. We ... ordered the nachos and chicken lettuce wraps. The nachos are mediocre and nothing to scream home about. The chicken lettuce wraps were well flavoured. I think I would have preferred lettuce head wraps instead of romaine lettuce just given the ease of the shape haha. We had a giftcard so it didn’t feel like a wasted meal or anything it just, again, wasn’t something I would rush to. The service was nice enough and it would likely be a good place for a little gathering in my opinion! The menu is big enough so everyone can sort of order something they want. They also had these party nachos, which I assume is great for sharing! the meal plus two drinks and tax came to $49. It’s about standard dining I’d say to have something 20 bucks each, soft drink for 3-5 and then tax for the rest. Read more
