Amazing local joint in Fort Lauderdale. If you want to try homemade American dishes, this is the place: big portions, friendly service, and an outstanding ambiance. I loved the dinner decoration, with a local vibe and atmosphere. The menu has plenty of choices, with breakfast, sandwiches, salads, platters, and desserts. Free parking on the premises. read more

Are there any good restaurants in Fort Lauderdale? This was yet another mediocre restaurant during my 3 day visit. Omelette was nothing special, and the chili beans tasted sweet, not spicy. It almost tasted like sweet pickles, which was a total put off. There was no chili powder or comino flavor in their "homemade" chili. The hash browns were a clumpy, sticky mess, almost fried, mashed potatoes. Sadly, the toast was the best thing. Coffee was weak as tea and looked like dishwater. Had to go to Starbucks afterwards for a legit coffee. Decor is dated and cheesy, but service was friendly, and that's about it. read more

We hadn't been at Joe's in a while because we don't live close. When we found out that our favorite person was working there, we decided we needed to make an effort to put it on our Sunday rotation when we are out east. I had a chicken ceaser salad wrap. It was so good! It didn't come with a side, but it did come with very tasty grapes. Give me grapes over coleslaw (bluch) any day! The wrap was jam packed with chicken and it was delicious. My husband had the cordon bleu chicken sandwich. He loved it. It came with hand cut fries. They were so good! Mary was our server and she was wonderful. The diner has charm and was very clean. Looking forward to trying more dishes. read more

Went here with my parents. The place seems a bit run down, but is always poppin! Thought the train above head was really cool! I got an omlete with hashbrowns and it was pretty solid. Not in a rush to come back, but was a cute little find if in the area. read more

I was very surprised I hadn't written a review for this restaurant, since this wasn't the first time I've eaten here. A friend of ours recommended this place. Since we were in the area and decided to try this place. Not a bad choice. There was a very extensive menu and our server was very good. Our server recommended the beef barley soup that I had. It was a good choice. I had a difficult time deciding on what I wanted, lots to choose from, I went with the chicken cordon blue sandwich. It came with fries, a pickle and coleslaw. The coleslaw, bla, I hate coleslaw, so the didn't send out. The pickle was pathec and half sour, but it tasted good. The fries were incredible. I ordered them well done well and I did something I don't normally do, I ate them all. The chicken sandwich was very good, good bread, fresh vegetables and perfectly cooked peice of chicken. My wife had a chicken ceaser wrap. It was stuffed full with chicken and she said it was really good. This was a good choice and we will be back when we in the area. read more

Arrived a party of 2, and Helen said just sit on that side, motioning her hand, and gave no menus. Reggie was nice and brought us silverware and napkins. Angie, our server, asked what we want to drink and I asked if we can please see a menu, "oh no one gave you one, wow". Interior was really cute, menu prices good - food was nice. Angie was attentive. The minute Angie saw we were close to done we received our check, one chicken cesar and one Californian breakfast (37$ + 5$ tip). But overall the environment was not inviting and the continued dismissive attitude from some of the staff was very off putting. Might be the area but it wasn't as welcoming as other restaurants. A cute diner if you're a local maybe but as a visitor it didn't feel as welcoming. read more

This was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had. My wife and I waited about 20minutes just to get our drinks. When our server finally came back, I told her we were ready to order. Instead of taking our order, she told us to wait and walked back inside. We then sat there for another 20 minutes with no one checking on us. At that point, we had to go inside ourselves just to let the staff know we were leaving because no one ever came back to our table. The restaurant wasn't even busy, and our server only appeared to be handling a couple of tables. The lack of urgency, communication, and customer service was incredibly disappointing. We came expecting a nice meal and left without even ordering food. I hope management takes customer service more seriously because no guest should be left waiting this long with no explanation. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I can't recommend this restaurant. read more

I don't usually leave reviews, but this experience was beyond disappointing. We were seated and waited 20 minutes just for someone to take our order. We finally let the older waitress know that we were ready to order, and instead of taking it, she simply said she'd be back. We then waited another 20 minutes, and no one ever came. When we finally decided to leave because we had been waiting over 40 minutes without even being able to place an order, the waitress suddenly acted concerned--but it came across as completely insincere. She had a smirk on her face that made it feel like she wasn't taking the situation seriously at all. By that point, we had finished our mimosas, were starving, and ended up having to get up and pay without ever being served any food. We were so excited to try Joe's Cafe, but instead we left feeling disappointed, dissatisfied, disrespected, and HUNGRY. Waiting over 40 minutes just to place an order with no communication or apology is unacceptable. If I could give this experience a 0-star rating, I would. read more

Great breakfast love their corn beef sandwiches cute little gem. Service is always good

Joes cafe was a great. As soon as we walked in the hostess was very friendly. Got a large table for my family. The server was so friendly and kind she explained us the specials and was very accommodating to our needs including allergy preferences for how we need the food to be cooked. So we ordered and we got the food fast! I ordered the veggie omelette it comes with cheddar but I do it dairy free and it was made perfect. It came with potatoes and unfortunately they weren't cooked enough for me and my father in law felt the same. But my my bacon was cooked perfectly tipsy exactly the way I love it! My husband and other family members got the burger and they loved it cooked perfect and seasoned meat just right with a grilled bun and crispy fries. We all enjoyed it very much. We had a wonderful experience plus the atmosphere there is very festive for the season. We will be back thank you for a good experience! read more

Joe's Cafe - Country fried steak, eggs, grits, and a biscuit. - Sandwiches Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

The main appeal of this place is that they're open very early (6:30), and we're early risers. Also they're in a mall, so plenty of parking. The food is pretty plain, simple stuff (husband thinks the hashbrowns are really boring), and the friendliness of the servers varies, but they keep your coffee cup filled! Lots of cops eat here. I will say their biscuits are excellent and so are the coffee and fruit salad. We've mostly been sticking with omelets but I might try pancakes next time. read more

Good general diner/ cafe tucked in a location just of 17th Street Causeway 4 star food and service: friendly staffers served up kebabs that were still piping hot. It was a little busy and chaotic 4 star ambience: it's a small place with a sort of hole in the wall vibe. read more

Genuinely so rude for no reason to us, rushed me, had an attitude the entire time with us. i walked out before even getting the food. would not recommend. read more

This diner feels like a hidden gem because of its location. The train decor is really fun and there are a ton of food options to choose from. I didn't have any issues getting a seat, even though there were a good number of people eating there, and the service was fast! The prices are really great too for the area. I'll definitely come back to try other items on the menu! read more

Found this gem tucked behind a Publix shopping center. The ambiance was fun and friendly, and the servers were friendly and fun. The sausage gravy was yummy and Cuban coffee perfect. Definitely worth a visit. read more

I loved the ambience as it truly felt like Christmas in here. There is a train that goes all across the restaurant near the ceiling which was amusing. The food was solid and I loved how it came out very quickly. I got a grilled cheese and fries. Our server was very attentive and friendly. I also thought it was pretty cheap compared to the average diner. Would definitely come back! read more

We stopped in after a Disney cruise and were very happy with the food and service at Joe's Cafe. The portions were large and the food was delicious. The service was amazing, Leslie was our server. She gave great suggestions and was very attentive to the kids. Our good came out quickly and our beverages were always refilled. Mary was another server who stopped by many times to talk to the kids. We will definitely visit this cafe on our next pre cruise trip in Fort Lauderdale. read more

We discovered Joea several years ago when our flight came in really late, and we were starving. We stopped in then, 5 years ago, and haven't stopped! This is our go to for breakfast no matter what time of day it is and they never disappoint. Service is impeccable and it seems as soon as you put your coffee mug down, they are right there filling it back up. We all got omlets and they were big and full of filled with the items we ordered. You do not leave here hungry! Definitely recommend a visit. read more

The decor for Christmas was amazing. The food was good. Eggs were a little burnt but the French toast was great. The sausages were a bit too greasy for me. Our waitress was great super helpful kept checking in on us. I will be back because of the service. They have a jut box in the front and lots of seating. read more

What a very cute spot in a very nice plaza. The server was very nice and friendly. My breakfast was very basic but very tasty. The coffee was very enjoyable. The one thing I did notice was my server petting a dog as I was still there eating so that made me a bit uneasy about the sanitation aspect of things but until I saw that, everything was great. read more

Ambiance is super cute with typical (and atypical) diner decor. Staff wear shirts with their names on the front and back, as opposed to badges. All the ladies (servers) had their own personal quirk, and our server Angie had on a heart necklace for Valentine's Day. She was very warm and welcoming, almost motherly. You can tell the employees love working here and love to serve their customers! Food is excellent for the price, portions are HUGE and hearty, and DELICIOUS!!! We (party of 4) had waffles, pancakes, corned beef hash, biscuits and gravy, French toast, Cuban coffee, sausage and bacon. I would say come here on your way in and stop by on your way back out if you're going on a cruise. I wish we found them the day we arrived and not the day we departed! read more

It's a true greasy spoon diner. The food was ok nothing special. We only went there because it was close to the Fort Lauderdale port. The server was very friendly. read more

I've passed by here so many times...now I am sad I hadn't stopped before! We were seated straight away, and even though they were busy our server was with us in know time. This place has that old school diner feel, fun and energetic, but not chaotic. The coffee was great, even at midday, it was perfect... My daughter loved the pancakes, and what's not to love? Good old fashioned, straight forward cakes with simple ingredients to accentuate their fluffy goodness. I wasn't looking forward to the soup, but wow, it was so very good. I think my daughter caught me licking the bottom of the bowl, and I almost asked for more. I'm a big fish and chips fan, and I eat it all the time. But I would have to say that their preparation is the best I have found in Fort Lauderdale. Nothing too fancy, nicely seasoned and a perfectly flaky, crispy piece of fish! The coleslaw was wonderful, I only wish there was more of it. I ordered a Gyro Platter to go...just because, and it too was above my expectations! My wife loved every bit of it and hardly allowed me a bite! Can't wait to return and try some of their dishes that the regulars stand by and suggest... read more

We ventured away from the hotel in search of an all-day breakfast spot. Well Joes Cafe had great reviews so we decided to give it a try. Now if you're looking for a fancy brunch spot this ain't it. It's a diner with the friendliest staff (I mean everyone we came in contact with). We were seated immediately and chose to sit indoors in case we had one of those Florida showers. This place was exactly what we wanted. I ordered a veggie omelet with grits and whole wheat toast. The food came out quickly and our waitress, Leslie, was extremely friendly and made us laugh and smile a lot. Would have loved a plant-based meat option but definitely not expected. read more

Quaint old timey dinner with good vibes! Service is fast and cordial. Food is good, specially breakfast. Portions are extremely generous so I'd recommend, if you come in with a big party, to order a couple of dishes and share them to get the full experience. You won't be disappointed. read more

You can sit anywhere so no need to be seated. I sat down and got my typical coffee and water and it was your usual diner coffee. I got waited on quickly and my waiter was nice. I decided to go with an omelette and it was a lot bigger than I was anticipating. The eggs were the best part of my breakfast. The potatoes were cooked well and nice and crispy. I personally found the corned beef hash to be a little too salty for my liking. The fruit bowl was fine. It is a kitschy place on the inside and there is a lot going on but it's fun and could be a good spot to take your kids on a little breakfast treat on the weekend. read more
