- MNMelissa N2 days ago3.0Average food, nothing really jumped out at me on the menu. Had the steak sandwich which was incredibly dry. Onion ring batter was actually super sharp so were a struggle to eat. Service was good but the bill was expensive for the quality of food. Wouldn't return for the price.
- SPShaun Paranych2 days ago1.0My wife and I order the same thing every time we go to this restaurant. The soup is rich, and the Lettuce wrap filling is usually to die for. Not tonight. I know it was Friday, but bur it wasnt busy and the drinks and food were well below par(soup was watery with no substance and underportioned, salad was old, soggy and embarrassingly small, filling for wraps was just wrong. I felt brushed off.
- KHKeith Hopkinson6 days ago5.0OJs has been amazing. The food is always good and consistent and the staff are awesome. Ask for Becca during the day. She is on top of orders and makes sure you're never waiting for anything.
- RTReese TopilkoNov 8, 20251.0rly busy and loud it sounded like a school gymnasium. the hostess ignored us, it wasn’t until another customer that must’ve been a regular came in did she come to the hostess stand. if you’re gonna sell $1 add ons of slush make it more than a tablespoon. didn’t add anything to my drink except water it down. i got the whiskey bbq burger which was good but my bf said his bruschetta fettuccine was not that good. only came here to use a gift card that didn’t even work (not their fault) and we were not too impressed.
- KAKhadija AbdiNov 6, 20255.0My recent visit to Original Joes Deerfoot city was made exceptional by the outstanding service provided by Becca, who is undoubtedly one of the most impressive servers I've encountered in a long time. Her remarkable kindness, impressive knowledge, and enthusiasm made her a pleasure to interact with, and her ability to accommodate my various dietary restrictions was truly appreciated, making her a valuable addition to your team.
