"Overall, the food was very good and the venue was nice and modern but the service was a bit slow and the prices were on the higher end with cocktails costing $20 each along with an automatic 20% gratuity applied. There was an empty hostess stand when we 1st arrived but after asking the bar they advised us that the hostess was on the other end of the restaurant (the hotel side). Our server was pleasant and made good recommendations, but there was a long lag between our courses, and he did not come back to our table for quite awhile after we received our entrees. We had the Hamachi Crudo and Scallops to start, and both were delicious. The scallops were buttery and the Hamachi crudo was light and flavorful. For entrees, we had the Cacio e Pepe with shrimp added and the Steak and Frites. The Steak and Frites had very nice flavor and I was satisfied with the Cacio e Pepe as well. The Wake and Bake cocktail was very comforting and a perfect fall drink if you like apples and the smokiness of mezcal. We ended with the Na'Nu and Make a Wish. They were okay desserts, but I was not really impressed with either one. I am glad we tried them out, but I'm not sure if I'll revisit given the prices and lack of attentive service. We might consider giving them another shot in the future because the food was very good for the most part. It's frustrating that the gratuity is already added because I didn't feel like the service was worth 20% but I guess they don't have to try as hard when they know they are getting 20% automatically."

The atmosphere was good and it seemed to be many repeat customers. Win atmosphere . The place seemed clean enough, except some condensation in the salt shaker Gain 1/2 . Everybody knows that, since Covid, cleanliness is a must with zero tolerance, and this place was kept clean. The waitresses were fantastic and helpful, and what I noticed was the owner, Joe, seemed to be everywhere on the phone, in the kitchen, greetings customers, an tireless and accomodating host. Gain Service. When the food arrived, it was hot One of my great things and it was also completely delicious. Unlike the other restaurant, Joe's Italian restaurant had red pepper and parmesan cheese on the tables. My spaghetti was lovely and the Marinara tasted a little sweet to remove the acid, and it was really delicious. After all, we have eaten up to our belly buttons, and when the check arrived, we saw that instead of $40 to $60 for Italian food in other restaurants, here at the Joe's Italian Restaurant, we could eat even more delicious food at $27. Win prize . Wow! This Joe's Italian restaurant Salt Shakers is rated 4 1/2 1/2 stars, of 5 stars.
