I had heard a lot of great things about Original Joe’s, especially regarding their professional burgers. My experience, however, was simply an ordinary one—just a simple burger with above average quality. My expectations were much higher. I liked the atmosphere. I might have planned to visit again, but when the server pulled the plate away from the table in front of me while I was still eating, it completely changed my mind. I was extremely surprised, and I recommend that management pay more attention to staff training. A professional staff member should not treat customers differently. It shouldn’t matter what I ordered. I came there to have an enjoyable time, not just to eat and leave.
Overall, if I want to rate the restaurant, I would give the food 3 out of 5, the customer service 1.5 out of 5 , and the atmosphere 4 out of 5.

Our waitress was very attentive without always asking if you needed. Dinner came and was great combination of presentation and great taste. While dinner was while a sporting game the restaurant was not busy I appreciated the quality of our experience.

Wanted to try this place for a while, but left disappointed. Small portions, burger was delicious, but service was ridiculously slow & poor & fries were rock hard & over done.
