Reviews
Restroom hallway was a different experience than usual. It felt like walking into a dungeon or Harry Potter chamber of secrets. It was mysterious, Gothic like, and it was pretty clean too. There were around 5 private unisex restrooms.
Once I was able to get my table, I was greeted by server Vanessa. She asked me for my food restrictions and she accommodated me really well. Gave me some time to find what I wanted to order with my party and I was served in a timely manner. I feel like service was exceptional and I enjoyed catching up with my cousins while eating a great meal with them here at Joey DTLA.
I had the low coconut alcohol drink, and it was refreshing for the evening. Also tasted the spaghetti garlic steak. It was cooked to perfection. I love the tenderness, as well as, the spicy crab dip. I loved it, especially since crab season. I have been craving crab. I enjoyed the sushi, it was delicious and the citrus lime enhanced the flavor. I had a great time enjoying the meal and I would come back.
It had TVs with the sports on and many tables, great even if I had to wait highly recommend. I also liked the jacket hooks by the booth.
Things I didn’t like as much:
Pretty noisy and low lighting. I heard Chris Brown songs played 3 times in a row. That’s the only things I disliked. This was the reason I removed a star.
What stood out was how naturally she connected the conversation, even sharing her time spent in my home town. That kind of awareness and authenticity makes a lasting impression. She was warm, attentive, and carried herself with real professionalism.
Joey is lucky to have her—she made a simple to-go order feel like a great experience.
We originally planned to sit at a table (which they had available), but opted for the bar since there were two open seats; and I’m so glad we did. We were greeted by Stew, the bartender, who was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the start. Not only was he attentive to us, but he was equally engaged with all of his guests. As someone who works in the food industry, watching Stew command the bar with ease, confidence, and genuine hospitality was honestly impressive. Service like that makes all the difference.
The drinks were superb. I ordered a dirty martini, and my partner had an Old Fashioned; both were executed beautifully. I recently had a terrible dirty martini elsewhere, so it was especially refreshing to enjoy one that was perfectly balanced and done right.
For food, we started with the steak French dip, which was absolutely delicious (pro tip: order four instead of two). I also tried the udon carbonara, while my partner went with the JOEY cheeseburger, and wow… unbelievable. Truly one of those meals where every bite reminds you why classics exist for a reason.
This was our first time back at JOEY DTLA in a few years, and it’s great to see that the service has not fallen off at all. If anything, it reinforced why this spot deserves a regular place in our date-night rotation. We’ll definitely be back. ✨
My only complaint of this place is that the service was subpar. When I arrived, the hostess asked if I was okay with a high top. I explained that those are a bit challenging for me, but I’ll take it if it’s the only available option. The other hostess sighed and just said “follow me” with a less happy look. Then, my server, I think Reem is their name, seemed highly annoyed by my presence from the moment I sat down. I kept it brief and bubbly, but she never lightened up. Every interaction felt cold and very short. I was considering dessert, but she immediately just pivoted to asking if I was ready for the bill, so I figured I’ll just wrap it up and leave. The first hostess with dark hair in a ponytail and blonde food runner/server were the only warm and friendly people I met throughout my meal honestly.
Food was absolutely delicious and that’s what I came for, but I felt encouraged to leave a review because the service was so rough that it dinged my overall experience a bit.
There were no donuts on the menu. We hope they return.
