We had an awesome experience at Joey’s. The waiter was a gem, we were having a birthday and they made sure we felt like royals. Also the food was superb: classic Italian fresh, tasty pasta meat and fish. We spent the whole evening from 7pm to closing and they never gave us the feeling we should leave. The service was a 10 from start to finish. 10/10 would recommend to anyone visiting Miami

Service honestly was terrible, drinks took nearly 15-20 minutes. We sat at the table when we arrived for 20 minutes before anyone came up to us and even offered water. For the price the food was below average and the pizza was similar to chuck-e-cheese. Wouldn’t recommend.

I’ve been here before and it’s always amazing. It was my boyfriend’s birthday and it was his first time in Wynwood. So I decided to make a reservation at Joey’s to celebrate. We had an amazing time. Food was amazing as usual. He wants to go back and make this our special place to eat and celebrate.

Sad to report that my excitement to dine at Joey’s completely fell flat. Meatballs were cold, steak was over cooked and fries were soggy. I couldn’t even finish my margarita because it was extremely sweet. The server was very nice and that’s about it.

Food was exceptional! We had a 6:15 reservation and the skies opened up at 5:30 and fortunately, they were able to accommodate us early. Everything was delicious! The menu has plenty of carb-rich heavy dishes, but they also have healthy, lean options like fish and grilled chicken. Will definitely be back.

Excellent food, friendly staff, outstanding “value”. Unfortunately it POURED during our dinner and that made a bit of a mess at our outdoor table (covered patio). Atmosphere is Great for casual friends and family, not recommended for a romantic or fine dining experience even though the food really was fantastic!

The food was FANTASTIC! The bartender totally made our night because honestly it was Valentines and it was cold and there were no tables available inside even though we had a reservation so we decided to sit at the bar. Luckily we had an amazing bartender. I will definitely go back again.

What an amazing meal we had tonight! Between the chicken Parmesan and the wild caught salmon dinners, we couldn’t pick a favorite… outstanding! Because it was a special evening, there was a DJ out on the patio. So FUN!!! We will definitely come back when we return to this area. Thanks for a great evening!

Loved our waiter Ismael.. he knew the menu so well and gave excellent recommendations which really impacted our experience. The specials were absolutely amazing. Seafood risotto was full of fish, shrimp, calamares etc - and all cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. My boyfriends steak was perfect and flavorful. We live in the neighborhood but it was our first time at Joeys. We will, without a doubt, be back. And we’ll ask for Ismael!

We were in town for the Miami half marathon and were looking for a good place to eat pasta and carb load. The place is in Wynwood and it was a busy Saturday night during season and we sat outside so the noise level was crazy but that’s what you get under those circumstances. The food was good. Service was very good. They had a problem with the order machine in the kitchen and it was all explained to us, but the food came out just fine and not delayed at all. Go for the pasta but sit inside if you want quiet, but the people watching when you sit outside is a show in itself. 😉

Joey's is an institution in Wynwood and there's a reason that it has been around. The food is really good, the place is lively and the location is great. I had the classic Spaghetti & Meatballs which was awesome - and large. My partner had the special Pork Chop, which was also good. We were celebrating our anniversary, low key.
