- ZDzeno dogOct 2, 20255.0So last night, me and my husband ate at Original Joe's here in Fort Saskatchewan because it was our anniversary. Then this morning one of their sweet employee messaged me that someone found my bag and turned it over to them🥹 I didn’t even realize I left my bag there last night. Thank you so much to that someone who turned over my bag to the staff and kudos to Original Joes staff for being honest. They even took the time to find me in Facebook 🥹🥹 Me and my husband had our first date in this restaurant. We also shoot there for our pre nuptial photos so it will always be a part of our story. We always sit in thesame table and for sure will continue to sit there until were old. God bless you guys!! I am very grateful for this ❤️❤️
- JDJoycelyn DeepSep 24, 20254.0Our group of 16 stopped to eat here on our way back to Edmonton, after laying a family member to rest at Soda Lake cemetery. The food was excellent, the service was great, considering the amount of us the server was hit with, and no reservation had been made. The length of the wait was a bit long but the food was well worth it! Wouldn't hesitate to suggest your business for any one looking for good food. Thank you for having us! 💞💫🙏🪶
- CSCraig SebzdaAug 25, 20255.0Micaela was our server this evening and she made a good evening into a great one. Her attention to detail and timing were on point and her smile was quick and obviously genuine Combined with the consistently good food at Joe's it was a winning combination. I’ll be back for the food but I will be more than happy with the service. Thanks Joe’s and thanks Micaela.
