Met some friends there for drinks and supper. We had to wait about 1/2 hour for our table, so we sat at the bar. I ordered a Caesar, it was nice & spicy but it came in a short glass which I found strange, an no celery! Luckily I asked for less ice! Within 25 minutes our table was ready, it was a high top one, and I'm not really a fan of those types but oh well. Ordered their calamari as an app, it was very good, one of the best I've tried! But it was my main that still has me drooling! I ordered their lobster tail ravioli topped with shrimp!!!! OMG it was to die for. Rich and creamy! Good enough portion too. Again cannot say enough, it was simply scrumptious!
From the time I had the restaurant in my sight until the time I left was amazing. One of the best experiences I’ve ever had dining out. I drove from Syracuse, NY to meet my family for a bite to eat and we all couldn’t believe how great everything was. The taste of the food was FRESH and delicious. Flavor was out of this world. The service could not be topped. We had Julie as our server and a glass couldn’t touch he table without a refill behind it and 5 minutes didn’t go by without a quick stop to our table making sure everything was ok. The chef personally brought out my dish. The whole experience blew me away. You can tell that there was a ton of passion put in to this business and put in to everything I ate tonight. 5 stars is not enough.
Food is consistently good. Make sure to have a reservation before visiting. I strongly recommend the sushi cones!
I wasn’t overly impressed with Joey. I found it felt very corporate and franchised. The menu had a broad selection which was nice. Our server was friendly as well. I had the salmon bowl and it was enjoyable. I don’t think I would go back but my friend quite enjoyed it and said he would go back.
Great food! Nice, lively atmosphere. Always busy but that's a good sign. Love the patio they have set up. Amazing service as well! My go to place for get togethers!
Had a great Market Salad last night!!
Absolutely Delicious!!
Molten Chocolate Cake was amazing!!
Would definitely recommend, music is loud, but the service was excellent.
We were at lansdowne and randomly decided to have dinner at Joey and I must admit I was pleasantly surprised. The service was excellent and our waitress was very knowledgeable. Everyone in our group of five enjoyed their meal. The ravioli with lobster cream & prawns was on the smaller side though. I personally really enjoyed the pan-roasted mushroom pasta (the portion was more than enough) and my bf liked his hand-pressed burger. The desserts were also delicious. The only negative is the pop. Although is was refilled often, there was so much ice that it got diluted by the time you got to the bottom of it. I'd rather have one glass with little to no ice without free refills than five glasses of diluted pop.
I have dined here twice, once in August 2016 and again on February 24, 2017. I went on Friday nights and both times the place was packed. Fortunately as a single guy I can just dine at the bar. You just have to wait for a seat to open up.
Like a few others have said, you're not coming here for the food but for the ambiance. Some of Ottawa's finest ladies frequent this loud, brash but attractive looking restaurant/bar and they play JUMP FM style rap music in the background. Many didn't seem to come here to eat but to drink. JOEY'S food is decent. It's cooked to order and well presented. I enjoyed the Steak Frites on my last visit but felt they could have given me more Steak. They have good WI-FI as well.
Not a place I regularly will frequent but it's worth making a couple of trips a year. If they can do a satisfying job on busy Friday nights then that's a good sign.
Great atmosphere and staff! Everything tastes fantastic and tons of menu options to fit any taste, and the soufflé is a must try. Always fun at any time of day but make sure to make reservations, place is always busy.
Whenever we'd go to the movies or Whole Foods we couldnt help but notice how busy this place always seemed to be. We decided to give it a try a few days ago and we now know why its always packed!
We didnt have a reservation so we waited for our table at the bar. Mixed drinks and apps there were fantastic and service was friendly.
We both had steak (something the place specialzes in apparently) and both our meals were amazing! Mine came with an awesome mashed potato side wrapped in a spring roll wrapper: very creative. The food wasnt terribly expensive for the type of place this is but the drinks were pretty steep. The atmosphere was great, if a little loud, but all in all it was a wonderful experience.
Great location! The service is fast! There's always something new on tap! And the FISH TACOS ARE KILLER GOOD! This is a great spot to catch the game while mowing down on good food and having a beer. Well done Joey! Well done!

Came here for dinner for Father's day. I had one of their chicken sandwiches with caesar salad. My father had a burger with bacon & cheese with fries.
The service was a little odd to start. We were seated and a server took our drink order, and then 2 minutes later another server came over and said she was taking over. She came back a few minutes later to take our order and was surprised that we didn't have water yet. When the food came out, my food came out, and my father's came out a few minutes later.
The caesar salad had lots of parmesan, capers, and fresh lemon squeezed over it. I could tell it was fresh, because they had apparently missed 2 lemon seeds that fell into my salad. The flavour was okay, but it was a little salty (from the capers) and a little too lemony for my tastes. As for the sandwich, the chicken was tender and juicy, bacon crispy, the bun was nice and soft, and the cheese was melted. This was all good, however the chicken itself was only big enough to take up about half the bun, and they did not, as far as I could tell, include the extra spicy mayo I had asked for on it.
My father's burger was pretty huge and on a pretzel bun, but the size of it was heavily bulked up with tons of lettuce. He seemed to enjoy it though.
Overall, I think for what it was, it was overpriced, and I probably wouldn't bother to return, myself.
4.5 stars based on great and courteous service, yummy food and overall atmosphere. Unfortunately pricing is a bit high and when we were on the patio there were several wasps (seasonal annoyance; this year is particularly bad). Lower prices and have some semblance of wasp control (I.e traps or decoys) and I’d give this establishment 5 stars.
My friends and I had a nice friendsgiving here! Atmosphere was great, service was courteous and waiting time was short. Definitely a good place for celebrations with friends/family. Only negative thing I'd say really is that the desert menu is lacking in options.
Hadn’t been to a Milestones in quite a while. We had a really great meal sharing apps before the 67s hockey game. Pleasantly surprised how the calamari and coconut app was in particular. Solid service and impressive to see how milestones invests in a shadow trainer to help with our server who was just starting. It’s hard to find staff let alone train right. Speaks volumes about a well run business in crazy times.
I don't like chain restaurants that much. Places like these are basically fast food with extra steps, meaning that everything is standardized and many ingredients are prepackaged. I had a chicken sandwich here, and for a moment I didn't care that I was at a chain restaurant. It was fire. The chicken was crispy, there was a perfect amount of sauce on it. The bun was well toasted. The toppings were well portioned. The fries were also perfectly cooked. I was very surprised at how I perceived the quality of this meal to be. The service was also excellent, our waitress was very friendly and made great conversation with us.
