“ Great food and great service. Throwback to old Italian school restaurants in the best way ”
“ Drove here for pick up. The Calamari and marinara sauce was excellent. The Pulpo and Calamari salad was good. We also had a side of Roast beef and potatoes. All of it was good and tasted authentic, just be ready to pay for the quality. My only gripe was the prices on yelp either were not updated, or I was just not looking at the right ones. Would of came any way, but have to take a star for it. Still worth the visit. ”
“ Best place ever. Love their rice balls, Pennelle Specials and nothing better than their pasta con sarde. ”
“ Excellent food and service. I went there tonight with my family and it was awesome The food is fresh and comes out delicious and plentiful for all of us. Our waitress "Caterina" was friendly and prompt with our food. I told her I didn't eat fish so when my family ordered clams & sauce, she put the dish on the other end of the table and brought me a rice ball special - which was delicious l. She was very fast with replacing the empty plates and periodically asked us if we were OK. One thing I really like about this restaurant is that it is wheelchair accessible. No steps or uphill ramp- the whole place is flat. Caterina was very helpful also by helping me transfer to my seat and she put my wheelchair in a safe spot out of the way. I highly recommend this place!!! ”
“ Best authentic Sicilian food in NY. Love the panelle and the pasta with black sauce is to die for!!! ”
“ Food is the best! Don't trust that other Sicilian restaurants make food better than them. This place is old school, true Sicilian food. Fresh fish dishes like pasta con sardi, zuppa di mussels, baked clams, polpo insalata, calamari fritti and linguine con vongole. Best rice balls and panelle. Escarole, string beans, caponata are just some of the specialties of authentic southern Italian cooking. The tripe is my favorite dish there. My fiancé loves the pasta con ricci, he says it reminds him of Sicily. If lasagna and eggplant parmigiana are your favs, Joe's won't disappoint. ”
“ I recently had the pleasure of dining at Joe's of Avenue U, and it was a truly great experience from start to finish! The panelle special was awesome. freshly made and with great flavor. For dinner I had baccalaru in bianco. The flavors were rich and expertly balanced, leaving me wanting more after every bite. But what really made my experience stand out was the incredible service. Our waitress was friendly, and attentive, taking the time to answer all our questions and making sure we had everything we needed. Overall, I was very impressed with Joe's of Avenue U and will definitely return! The food was outstanding, the service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. Enjoy!! ”
