Once again another return visit. This time Maryland crab cakes, Shrimp & Grits and salmon sandwich. Every meal we had has been excellent. My favorite was shrimp & grits. Great service also. Reservations are needed.

This started out as a solid 5 but went south within 10 minutes. The outdoor seating is awesome, The menu looks great. Promptly seated. Quickly greeted. The Manhattan was served fast. The house bread and salad were great and brought out soon. Placed an order for the Filet Mignon. Then…… Then 2 more tables showed up and the server was no more. 30 minutes passed with no contact or food. I requested my check. Credit to the manager for cancelling all charges since they know they messed up.

What a find! First time here, the food was excellent! They made their own ketchup! Delicious!
So my fiancée has the Bistro Salad while I went to the fresh catch of day sandwich… both our lunches were excellent! Everything appeared & visually felt as it was freshly prepared… the fries, fish was cooked perfectly, not overly done not under just perfect!
We had a zero wait time when walked in and the atmosphere was very pleasant! Very relaxing place, the colors on the walls ceiling was calming and fit this place oh-so-swell!

There were five families in our group. We have a reservation and the entire experience was really smooth and pleasant. To begin, we were promptly seated when we arrived at our reserved time. Our waitress was very friendly and well trained. Our water glass were never empty. If you’re looking for a great sit down dinner service, this place fits the bill.
Our food did not disappoint as they were well seasoned, fresh, and perfectly cooked. Being the weekend, I was able to order the prime rib that sits on grilled summer vegetables and mashed potatoes. Some of us had the Risotto Milanese (the shrimp and scallops were cooked perfectly), rack of lamb, and grilled salmon. I did not hear one word of complain about our food.
The fact that we had five families paying for their own meals did not faze our waitress. The bill came back correctly. I understand that this is a tourist town and things are going to be pricey but a three course meal at this restaurant will set you back $50. If you order a drink or two with it, be prepared to spend $80 per person. Word of caution, if you order the Caesar Salad and is asked with anchovies or not, go with no or you’re going to end up with extra anchovies and an upcharge of $2.
I recommend the Risotto Milanese. They achieve perfect consistency for the risotto and the cheese was of good quality.

Wonderful start to finish. Excellent flavors.
We tried: chicken and andouille sausage wonton, crab stuffed shrimp, pork chop, linguini, and their three desserts.
The cinnamon roll bread pudding was the absolute best of the three desserts.

We really enjoyed dinner at Joe’s 2nd Street Bistro tonight. The service was excellent and all of the food was fresh and well prepared. We had the crab stuffed shrimp as a starter. It was delicious even though I wish the portion was just a little larger. For dinner, my husband had the grilled ribeye with three sauces and I had one of the specials, which was a coffee rubbed New York strip steak with jalapeño cheddar grits. We will definitely come back to Joe’s again when we make our next visit to Fernandina Beach.

We had the rib eye and shrimp and grits. The rib eye was one of the best I’ve ever had. The shrimp and grits were very good. One meal was ordered off of the menu that included an appetizer, entre, dessert, and coffee. I had a salad for the appetizer. It was good, but only about 1/2 the size of the salads on the regular menu.
The water does not taste like regular Florida water, it was very drinkable.

First time eating at this restaurant. Our waitress was great. Friendly and all that jazz. It’s also restaurant week so they had a few specials. My husband ordered the Street Beef Tacos…he didn’t like them. He gave the third one to his friend. I ordered the Salmon BLT. I never would’ve thought of a Salmon BLT. To my surprise it wasn’t half bad. Would I order it again? Probably not. It was interesting to taste and experience but it didn’t “wow” me. The best part are the French fries.

Amazing restaurant in downtown Fernandina Beach. The menu and food were very creative. The mixture of ingredients to create the flavor profiles was well thought out. The staff was friendly and attentive.
