10/10 would recommend. Great service and great ambiance. Loved the JOEY cheeseburger. Angel was an awesome bar back.

The food was great, I came for light snacks and had the new nigiri sushi & the Hugo Spritz. Delicious! The manager Imari took great care of us, super excited to come back and try the Peach Bellini! read more

Service great. Sat at the bar. Ordered the burger and it felt like it was swimming in sauce and alittle too gooey for my liking

Booked a reservation on a whim on a Friday afternoon and there was plenty of availability. From the moment you walk in, you get a sense of the upscale and boujee dining experience that everybody raves about. You're greeted by friendly staff and a glass of bubbles, how much more welcoming can it get? The lighting is perfect to set the mood, they have chill music playing, and they have plants and nice artwork scattered about. Quickly wanted to shoutout Dustin for the amazing service throughout my visit here. I ordered the Cajun Blackened Chicken and it was one of the most incredible dishes I've ever had!! Every aspect of the dish was executed to absolute perfection; it was just a marriage of flavor and texture in perfect harmony walking down the aisle of my tastebuds. The chicken was prepared flawlessly: perfectly charred, juicy inside, and unbelievably flavorful. The bacon potato salad and creamy coleslaw compliment the chicken very well. Nothing was overly sauced and everything was cooked just right. The presentation is gorgeous as well which always a plus before you devour it. They serve a delicious creme brulee cheesecake with a mildly tangy and sweet raspberry sauce for birthdays, which is much appreciated. Also a perfect way to end such a delicious meal and fun experience. This is the first Joey that I've been to, and now I want to try them all! Could not recommend this place enough!!! read more

This was a great first meal in LA while on vacation! Betsy was amazing, clean, clear communication, fun, and helpful! + GREAT drinks! We loved the low alcohol coconut smash! + customer service from all the waiters and waitresses (just want to be specific that the hostesses were kind of chit-chatty, and not to customers lol they were talking to each other and when my table was ready they called me Alan? Lol) + good ambiance, music, vibes + high quality food + I appreciated that all servers help out as needed instead of the traditional 1 server to 1 table. - very pricy. My lobster spaghetti was 90% spaghetti 5% tomatoes 3% lobster and 2% shrimp lol - hostesses as mentioned above read more

I've been to JOEY DTLA multiple times, and until today, I've always had great experiences. Unfortunately, this visit completely changed my impression. My party of three ordered four sushi cones, hummus, and our entrées. After a reasonable wait, a food runner brought us five sushi cones instead of four. Naturally, we assumed there had simply been a mistake when entering the order. We had no problem paying for the extra cone if that's what happened. We each picked up a sushi cone and had literally just taken our first bite when a server from another section walked up to our table and said, "Why are you guys eating the sushi cones from one of my tables?" Excuse me... what? He wasn't smiling. He wasn't joking. He rolled his eyes at us, turned around, and walked away. How exactly were we, as paying guests, supposed to know that a food runner had delivered food to the wrong table? We didn't grab food off another table. We didn't ask for someone else's order. We simply ate the food that YOUR staff placed in front of us. That interaction was incredibly rude, unprofessional, and honestly embarrassing. No guest should ever be approached like they're being scolded over a mistake the restaurant made. Our server, Ola, was the complete opposite. She was kind, attentive, and genuinely cared about what had happened. She immediately informed a manager, apologized sincerely, and later brought us a complimentary dessert. Ola did everything she could to recover the experience, and she deserves recognition because none of this was her fault. The manager came over, apologized, and offered not to charge us for the extra sushi cone. While I appreciate the gesture, it completely missed the point. The extra sushi cone was NEVER the issue. We were fully expecting to pay for it because we assumed it had been added to our order by mistake. The problem was the attitude and the way another server felt comfortable confronting guests as if we had done something wrong. I work in the restaurant industry myself, and mistakes like this happen. Food gets delivered to the wrong table. It happens. What should NEVER happen is making your guests feel guilty or embarrassed because of your team's mistake. I'll probably return because I've had good experiences here before, but I sincerely hope management coaches that employee on how to interact with guests. A simple, "I'm so sorry, I think those were accidentally delivered to the wrong table," would have solved everything. Instead, what should have been a minor mistake turned into the worst part of our meal. Thank you again, Ola. You were the reason this review isn't one star. read more

Lunch with my husband and sister for her birthday ! Joeys is mos definitely a staple in our family now a days . We enjoy a great happy hour !

Quick sit-down work lunch vibes in DTLA. Went for a work lunch with a large group. No rsvp, but they were able to sit about 13 of us together in the patio. Orders taken pretty quickly and got our food. Got a burger with fries - was in the $20s. Prices are a bit steep but the ambiance and service probably attributed to it. Would I come back? Maybe - I do enjoy their happy hour food and drinks (particularly the martinis). read more

JOEY DTLA - Cheeseburger - Sushi Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Me and my sis visited this location after an event at the California African American Museum on a Saturday night...parking was tricky but we found the garage. When I walked up there was security outside and they said they weren't taking any more walk ups. I convinced him to let me in to speak to the hostess to if they could seat us since we were starving and it was already late. It was pretty chaotic inside...there were lots of people waiting for tables and working near the front but they seemed overwhelmed. The hostess was really nice, she mentioned someone quit earlier but she put our names on the list and she said it would be an hour but we could try to get seats at the bar. A nice touch was that they give you a splash of sparkling wine to sip while you wait. Once my sis got there we decided to try the bar...we found 2 seats but waited for 20 min. for our orders to be taken and no luck so we decided to just go back to the front and wait for our table. We waited another 20 min.and they were able to seat us. We discovered that their system was down and they had to write every order down by hand...so the kitchen was extremely backed up. Our server was very nice and apologized for the wait and he gave some really great recommendations. We shared a house salad and I ordered the steak with potatoes and broccolini. It was just ok....the steak was a little overcooked and the potatoes were like fancy potato wedges with bacon and sour cream. They had to hand write receipts since their system was down...I was a little concerned since I was paying with a corporate card but it worked out. I get the concept of the restaurant, it's super vibey but we went on a really off night. We forgot to get our ticket validated but shoutout to the security who was able to go back inside (they were closing) and get the ticket validated for us. It was a rough experience but I think I am willing to try another location. read more

I'm sorry to write this, but this did not live up to the reputation at all. I've been to so many better restaurants in LA. I worked 1 block from Joey's for a year, so I was excited to try it. I got the sirloin and ravioli bianco, and it was honestly pretty flavorless except for a sour aftertaste. The steak was just ok but the cook on my steak was uneven, I ordered medium rare but at first I thought I got my friend's dish (she ordered the same thing but medium well). The bite on the ravioli pasta itself was rubbery. And the shrimp were overcooked. I'm really confused why the ratings are so high. It wasn't particularly busy. There were less than 10 other tables with people since we came mid-afternoon. But it took 40 minutes to get our truffle fries. People talk about free champagne when you get there, but we didn't get that. Our waitress was super friendly, I really liked her so much. But she was the highlight of the entire meal. read more

Yesterday was my first time visiting this location and I had a great dining experience. It was a Saturday morning a little after 11am so there was no wait and our group was greeted with a complimentary glass of champagne. The hostess checked us in and she was really pleasant. Our group got seated right away. The atmosphere and ambiance was nice especially sitting at a booth near the window so of course I did a little people watching of all the folks walking outside in the streets of DTLA. Our server was TJ, he was absolutely AMAZING! I love his personality and the recommendations he made. He was very personable and made our dining experience enjoyable. Our group ordered the hamachi wings, truffle fries, steak with broccoli, shrimp ravioli, chicken tenders with fries, and fish tacos. Not one person complained about their food! Everything was delicious. I even put in another order of the shrimp ravioli to go (highly recommend). The drinks were also very good. The espresso martini was a hit with our group! Overall this location has a really good ambiance, very clean and friendly staff. I would definitely visit again if I am ever in the area. read more

We had dinner at Joey DTLA last Friday. The restaurant offers a wonderful ambiance with a very tasteful interior. We especially appreciated the complimentary champagne provided to all guests. The food was exceptional, and the attentive service truly enhanced our dining experience. While the prices are on the higher side, the quality made it worthwhile. I look forward to returning for another occasion. read more

On Friday evening, May 8th, we had a family dinner at Joey DTLA to celebrate my mom's birthday. I had Truffle Carbonara, which was interestingly made with udon noodles. It was written that way on the menu too. My brother had the Blackened Chicken, my mom had the Pressed Sushi, and my dad and my other brother had the Spaghetti Pomodoro, Chicken Spaghetti Parm, and garlic bread. When you first walk in, they offer complimentary champagne to all guests while they wait in the waiting area, which was a very nice touch. While we were enjoying our glasses of champagne, the host came over and showed us to our table. All of the food was delicious, and every staff member was incredibly friendly. Our waitress was especially kind and wonderful, which made the experience even better. After we finished our meal, we mentioned that it was my mom's birthday, and she brought out a mini cake with a candle. It was such a kind gesture, and we really appreciated the cake. Before making the reservation, I checked the Yelp rating, and since it was good, I felt comfortable booking it. Thankfully, the restaurant turned out to be just as good as the reviews said. I can see why this place has such good ratings. The service is very friendly, and all of the food was delicious. read more

It was my first time back at Joey's since last year, & it reminded me why I always recommend it whenever friends visit from out of town. Between the aesthetics, the service, & the overall vibe, it's definitely one of those must-visit spots that leaves a great impression. We came in without reservations, but they still greeted us with champagne, which immediately impressed my friends (and honestly made me look pretty cool lol). The food was good, not anything overly crazy... but the drinks were definitely a hit. Overall, it's a great place for the atmosphere & experience. read more

I have to admit I misjudged this place at first. I didn't expect much, but it turned out to be excellent. The food, service, and atmosphere were all great. We sat in a booth in the bar area and watched the NBA game, which made it even more fun. Our server gave a good wine recommendation, and both the appetizers and entrees were delicious. Everyone loved what they ordered. It's a lively, fun spot and a great place to meet up with friends. I'll definitely be back. read more

Love the steak ravioli, sushi cones, crème brûlée, and coconut smash. I freaking love this place, but was told the blender breaks often which cancels the peach bellini's. Please supply Joey's DTLA with multiple blenders to prevent this (p.s. didn't get to take pics of the ravioli, just know it was Devine) read more

I've been to JOEY a few times. I've come for happy hour and for brunch. The food and drinks are good. They have a good variety of food to choose from. They have sushi, sandwiches, burgers and pasta just to name some things they generally have. So everyone from our party was able to find something they would order. Since we had a bigger group and were planning to go for Mother's Day, we called ahead of time to make a reservation. The reservation was easy to make. Since we got there right when they opened we were one of first parties they sat. This location is very open. Our server was good. The food was also very good. Everyone enjoyed what they got. We got a few appetizers to share and ordered entrees. A few of us also ordered cocktails and they were all good. Everytime, I've come the food and service has been good. So I would definitely recommend. read more

tone for the evening. Once seated, the service truly stands out. The servers are friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. They make the experience feel special by offering thoughtful recommendations and answering any questions about the menu, which makes choosing dishes even more enjoyable. We ordered a few drinks, and as always, they were delicious. The food was amazing as well--so good that there were hardly any leftovers because we finished everything on our plates! The atmosphere is vibrant and stylish. It can get a little loud at night, but that's part of the lively downtown energy. Aside from that, it was a fantastic experience overall. We celebrated my son's 30th birthday there, and it made the occasion even more memorable. I would highly recommend read more

Joey's has become one of my favorite restaurants in DTLA. LOVE the food, drinks, and customer service is always top notch. The aesthetics, vibes, and service all tie within to make it an enjoyable place. I do recommend you have a reservation made if you are planning to go Friday/Saturday as these are their peak days. I've also gone during the week with no reservation and wait time is very minimal. Appetizers I recommend are; Hummus(pita chips included), Seared salmon sushi, Korean Fried Cauliflower. Of course, my go to plates are the Steak & Ravioli Bianco and Joey Classic. To this day, I have not experienced any issues with food nor customer service and it is why I go often. It does get quite noisy inside, but not overbearing. read more

I came here for a few cocktails after a stressful Sunday morning commute from Orange county and a breakfast devoid of mimosas. The drinks were good. Daniela was a great bartender and host.

I had a lot of fun going here. Parking was like $44 for overnight or all night maximum. I got it validated at Joey DTLA so it got subtracted $40 so it was only four dollars. I came in I did a walk-in waited about 25 minutes. I was served complementary champagne while waiting for my table. That felt like an upscale service. Restroom hallway was a different experience than usual. It felt like walking into a dungeon or Harry Potter chamber of secrets. It was mysterious, Gothic like, and it was pretty clean too. There were around 5 private unisex restrooms. Once I was able to get my table, I was greeted by server Vanessa. She asked me for my food restrictions and she accommodated me really well. Gave me some time to find what I wanted to order with my party and I was served in a timely manner. I feel like service was exceptional and I enjoyed catching up with my cousins while eating a great meal with them here at Joey DTLA. I had the low coconut alcohol drink, and it was refreshing for the evening. Also tasted the spaghetti garlic steak. It was cooked to perfection. I love the tenderness, as well as, the spicy crab dip. I loved it, especially since crab season. I have been craving crab. I enjoyed the sushi, it was delicious and the citrus lime enhanced the flavor. I had a great time enjoying the meal and I would come back. It had TVs with the sports on and many tables, great even if I had to wait highly recommend. I also liked the jacket hooks by the booth. Things I didn't like as much: Pretty noisy and low lighting. I heard Chris Brown songs played 3 times in a row. That's the only things I disliked. This was the reason I removed a star. read more

A vibe. I recommend a reservation just to be on the safe side. The restaurant is located in a large shopping center so parking is readily available which can typically be a pain when you're in the heart of downtown LA. The service was fantastic. Upon entering, we were greeted with glasses of champagne, and a raincoat rack to place our coats/umbrellas because it was a rainy day. Our family of 5 were seated at a big gorgeous booth and accommodated by the friendliest of staff. The music is upbeat and the crowd is a mix of couples, young groups, and family. You get a little bit of everything in a festive atmosphere. The menu has so much to offer, which I really appreciate. Sea Bass- 9/10 Garlic fries - 10/10 Chicken Wings- 10/10 Burger- 10/10 Kids butter pasta- 10/10 Kids grilled chicken- 10/10 Definitely will be back. read more

Came here for a company dinner and we loved the atmosphere and vibe! The vibe was very chill, relaxing, and chatty (but in a good way!) It wasn't loud where you can't hear each other talking, just the right mood for after work festivities. We coordinated with the events manager Isabel to curate a delicious menu and she did her thang! Our food was incredible! Our waiter Gabby was the best and so sweet!!! From start to finish, she was quick, attentive, and made sure we were all taken care of. She was so lovely and smiles all the time! For our prix fixe menu, we chose the globally inspired option where we got to choose our courses. It had three courses. Here was the options we decided on: Appetizers: Hummus (pita chips and veggies) Seared Salmon Sushi Farmers Salad (strawberries, marinated beets, roasted corn, candied sunflower seeds, aged cheddar, champagne vinaigrette) Entree (we each choose one) 22 oz ribeye (mashed potatoes, gravy, and broccolini) Sake glazed Chilean sea bass (with veggies and dashi broth) Tofu crispy bowl (with papaya slaw and coconut jasmine rice) Ravioli Blanco (prawns and pasta with truffle sauce) Cajun blackened chicken (warm potato salad and coleslaw) Dessert Creme brulee passionfruit cheesecake with coconut whipped cream Let me tell you! EVERYTHING was outstanding! The hummus was fresh and tangy and the pita chips were perfectly fried to a nice golden brown. The seared salmon sushi was by far one of the best bites I've had. I don't eat salmon due to a previous incident where I had horrible, fishy salmon that gone bad but this was incredible. The salmon was super fresh and there was no fishy aftertaste at all! Each bite was divine! The farmers salad was a favorite and I enjoyed the fresh strawberries with the tangy vinaigrette. It was a nice, light starter before our entrees. I had the 22oz ribeye and spilt it with my coworker. He had the sake glazed Chilean sea bass and spilt it with me as well. That ribeye was cooked perfectly to a medium rare. You know a steak is legit when you don't even need steak sauce. The meat was juicy, tender, and each bite was heaven. The mashed potatoes were creamy and when you add the gravy on top, everything just melted in your mouth. The broccoli was bright, fresh, and added a nice crunch and freshness to contrast the heaviness of the steak. The steak was huge! Even after sharing with my coworker, I couldn't even finish it! I'm still dreaming about that steak! The amount of fat on the steak was the perfect ratio. I thought it couldn't get any better with the steak but then I tried the sea bass. OH MY GOSH! That fish was literally like butter. As soon as it hit my tongue, it melted into an explosion of flavors. I could tell they were going for a ginger sake flavor and the combination of the flavors and the veggies, was one of the best dishes I've ever ate in my life. I love the addition of mushrooms as they all soaked up that broth. You HAVE to get this dish! My jaw dropped as soon as I tried this dish. Everyone else enjoyed their dinner. Some got chicken, some got the tofu bowl, etc. We all rated 10s across the board. Now on to dessert! The creme brulee cheesecake was decadent. The added torched sugar on top added a much needed crunch element to the soft cheesecake. It literally felt like I was eating creme brulee but in cheesecake form haha. I love the tartness of the passionfruit puree and the coconut shavings and coconut whipped cream. The whipped cream was full of coconut flavor and each bite took me to the tropics. This dessert should be on the menu all day and every day! We got a few drinks and I had the strawberry mocktail. It had lemonade, grapefruit juice, strawberry puree, and soda in it. It was tart, light, and refreshing. I needed a light drink to go along with the steak and this satisfied my taste buds. Overall, we would come back again. Isabel and Gabby took really good care of us and it was so easy to work with them. They made our dining experience here from start to finish so seamless and after a long day of work, it's nice to feel relaxed, hang out, and enjoy delicious food. We left here super happy and full. The prices are not cheap but honestly, you pay for what you get. The quality of the food was outstanding and impeccable. Can't wait to come here again! Thank you again Isabel and Gabby for everything! read more

Went to joey's downtown LA for a quick lunch break. The food was fresh and delicious and served very hot. The service was good as well as soon as I came in to sit at the bar. I was immediately served as that was perfect for me. Because I only had about forty five minutes left on my lunch break. The ambiance was kind of live at that moment, they were giving out wine appon entering through the door for happy hour. I ordered hibachi wings and Korean Fried Cauliflower. They were both delicious. The wings were not too spicy. The cauliflower was spicier than the wings, In my opinion, but still seasoned to perfection. I had a side of spring water for my palate on this nice gloomy day. I'll be back to try more items off the menu, as there's so many to choose from, and they all look great! If you're looking for parking, this is in the macy's plaza, at (The Bloc) where there's underground parking. The establishment is live, clean and welcoming.

JOEY DTLA is trendy downtown restaurant that boasts tasty food options and their desserts/drinks are highly recommended. The atmosphere is lively and it does get loud, so it's a good option for larger parties and Happy Hour. The dinner portions are pretty large and the entrees offer a variety of flavors. While it wasn't not the most welcoming front desk (typical of most LA restaurants on a weekend); the service, however, was amazing. Our server, Chase, was friendly and attentive and took time to make our dining experience a memorable one. We celebrated a birthday, so our party spent a little bit more than your usual casual/business dinner. (About $50-70 per person). Also parking prices in DTLA can get pretty steep, so check other more affordable lots in the area. JOEY is located in The Bloc and there are other shops to check out if you're there for lunch. P.S. there are some vegetarian and gluten-free options, but not too many vegan options. The desserts were delish! Overall, it was a great first dining experience at JOEY DTLA. It's worth stopping by when you're in the area. read more

Prior to my most recent visit to Joey DTLA, I consistently recommended this restaurant chain based on excellent past experiences. The food quality, ambiance, and service were always exceptional, even during peak hours. However, I can no longer recommend this location, or any Joey location, due to the unprofessional treatment my group and I received. The night manager requires immediate hospitality training and should be placed on administrative leave until completing such training with a passing grade. My group was mistreated and embarrassed by her actions, as well as those of the server who attended to us. While a few other staff members were professional, these incidents overshadowed the experience entirely. Ashlen apologized for the behavior and rudeness we encountered and expressed appreciation that I did not raise my voice or cause a scene--which would have been well within my rights. Instead, I shared my concerns privately. As a result, my executive colleagues, who work downtown, have instructed their employees that Joey's will no longer be used for business lunches, meetings, or any company functions. While I do not live locally, I have expressed similar concerns to my family, friends, and professional colleagues. Following my experience, I learned of multiple cross-contamination incidents involving allergens and additional reports of poor treatment by service staff at various Joey locations. Several of my colleagues heard similar accounts from their own employees. Unless upper management ensures comprehensive staff training and quality control across all locations, I will continue to advise others to avoid Joey's. The combination of health and safety risks, along with consistently poor service standards, makes it impossible to recommend your restaurants in good conscience. read more
