Joey’s is LEGIT!!! Super crowded around lunch time but the staff was great, especially Casey. I’m glad we called ahead for take out. Eggplant parm and rollatini are a solid 10, paper thin, stuffed with ricotta. Sicilian was good, garlic knots are great. I passed on the pepponi calzone, it’s Friday during lent after all but the non Catholics raved about it. Pasta was fine and not overcooked with a good sauce.. BUT THE PASTRY!!! Lobster tails, St Josephs, Nopolean and a couple of biscuits & pignoli cookies just because. They were all off the chart. Maybe because it’s been so long. I stopped at the meat counter and would have picked up some Chevatta sausage if my hand were full. 5 FRIGGIN’ STARS JOEY!

Greeted upon walking in and enjoyed some free samples. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. I bought some provolone cheese which was hanging above the counter, and it was absolutely amazing. I also got their semolina bread, a slice of Nona pizza, St. Joseph’s Pastry, and mini cannoli. Everything that I had was incredibly delicious. I am so happy I found this place. I will definitely be back!

The pizza here is addictive good. If you never had a sfogliatele, I highly recommend you try them here, as they’re some of the best ones I’ve had. They have full on meals, with meal deals at certain times, ready to go items like pizza by the slice, sandwiches, garlic rolls, rice balls, various other rolls and an extensive dessert case full of everything you could want. I’ve never been disappointed by anything from here. Plus it’s also a full deli with fresh mozzarella made in house. Truly a gem!

This is no hidden gem, more like a Mack Daddy Diamond in the sticks! A search for guanciale so I could make Carbonara revealed the usual suspects and somebody new and unexpected. I am a glutton for new things, new places and new adventures so off I went to find Joey’s to the seldom driven far reaches of Gunn Hwy west. Past Van Dyke, past Lake Fern and coming to a rest near Ashley Lakes where urban development has spread its tendrils.
Shock and Awe. As I entered a warm and fuzzy perception of exitement and recognition swelled in me. A small but concentrated area with authentic Italian products and “atmosfera italiana”. From the nostalgic Big Apple crooners singing the italian-american classics, to the colorful displays, legitimate italian products, geniune italian butcher choices to fridges full of bona-fide pre-prepared italian food products the stank of authenticity permeated.
The deli/meat area was packed with delectable choices and fresh assortments that any italian would be proud to put on his table. Even things like pre-wrapped bracciole (beef & pork), veal cutlets, homemade italian sausage, steaks and all the standards. I even took home some Korean BBQ Baby Back Ribs
After my long and detailed perusal my attention my attention was drawn to the slender aisle leading to the other side of the store and what I thought would be shelfs of canned, bottled and dry package products. But behold, it was a small dining area with a wide variety of pizza by the slice or whole, sandwiches, hero’s, salads and pasta’s. A cornacopia of foods, all the italian masterpieces that the American-Italian community has to offer, and the place was packed with eager diners.
I bought 4 slices for the road and was tempted to try other things but I already had nearly a $100 in products. Fresh Pecorino Romano to grate for my Carbonara, a gorgeous piece of guanciale, regular and hot italian sausage, the ribs and a package of spaghetti from Italy.
The pizza was superb, different from any other in town, complex, delicious, thin crust with a proper char. The Korean ribs were excellent, a hint of spicy heat with an umami bbq sauce. Buying a whole pizza next time, plus I am already excited about returning. As soon as I finish makung my Carbonara and try the italian sausage, I will return for the beef bracciloe, some veal and some of the premade sauces.
There is not a lot that gets me ranting these days, so when I tell you this place is amazing, you can take that to the bank. COME GET YA SOME!!

Great market. Enjoyed getting a few slices of pizza which was as good as you hoped it would be. The cookie counter is also excellent and I’m excited to check out their Deli in the future as well. All around a must do if you haven’t been here yet.

I went for the Lard/Prosciutto bread but they didn’t have any. I settled on 2 slices of pizza 1 really good Sicilian dough in the middle but crisp on the bottom and the sides. And a slice of pepperoni which was ok. Then I got some pastries to take home. The people working there were great though.

Great to have an Italian market in Pasco County. This place is just 5 minutes from home. I recommend you pay them a visit and support them. You will not regret it.

Joeys is a fantastic local restaurant and market. They make their cheese fresh at the restaurant. We are regulars here and frequently stop by for a slice or order dinners to go. The chicken salad from the market is addicting. We often order the grilled chicken bruschetta sandwich, eggplant parmesan dinner, eggplant rollatini dinner and their grilled chicken ceasars salad. All of which are fantastic and come with giant portions at a great price. My favorite perhaps though is their La Nona pizza. The slices are crisp and delicious and the freshness of the cheese shines through.

My mom had stuffed peppers, and she said that they would taste sour. First thing that came to mind was sauerkraut juice, i also picked up an order of honey balls when I first tried. I was very disappointed they were locking, honey. But when I got down to the bottom, I noticed that the very favorable honey on the bottom. Now I have had honey balls many places drizzle on top with the candied cherries red and the green and the colorful red, white, green, sprinkles some even add candied almonds.
