Thin crust pizza win! Big thin crust fan and they won me over with their freshly baked, just out of the oven pizza! They give very generous portions of their food, and for the price it's definitely a bargain. Went on a Sunday evening which I think helped and we didn't have to wait for service but I can see this place getting busy. Near the beach, good food, and good service read more

Nice little Italian place. Not fancy, but a couple tables outside next to the sidewalk as well as indoor seating. The food is priced reasonably. I've had calzones that I couldn't put down (made for a painful walk home) and the pizza is pretty good. I've also been here a few times for gelato alone. Worth a try! read more

awesome for kids and friendly staff. Pet friendly Neighborhood welcoming feel. Desserts are awesome just to go there for them is a treat. Food is OK but not bad--JUST what I personally had,other I know loved it. Close to beach outdoor seating board games TVs Beer Pizza What is not to like right? read more

I only wish I lived closer to this delicious food. At least it's close to be beach so I can walk it off after my meal. Love this place. It's literately a slice of heaven. The pizza and wings are to die for and I've brought tons of people there over the years. They always rave about the place and bring their friends. I love the friendly staff and owners always asking about my meal and my day. I know they have fun events set up for different nights of the week and they keep a bowl of water just outside their door for our 4 legged friends. Great food and great family place. Can't wait till next time! read more

What a fantastic place. Homemade food and the pizza can't be beat. However, if you are only getting pizza here you are missing out, their pastas are first rate. My kids love to "make their own pizza" and their salads are also great. In a world full of chains, it's nice to see a community restaurant do it right. Thank you. read more

Great service, great food & reasonable prices! What more do you need? We loved everything! The Caesar salad, garlic knots, pizza, calzone & gelato were all delicious! If we are ever back in Atlantic beach, we will definitely return! Highly recommend! read more

The pizza is completely forgettable and better food can be found nearby. The inside of the restaurant is cluttered with tables and the counter is in an awkward position (you have to weave in between tables and people eating just to get to it), which makes for weird flow. It just feels uncomfortable. read more

Great service. Food was hot and fresh 1 entree is enough to feed 2 people. The calamari was perfect the stuffed mushrooms were packed with sausage and covered in melted crusty cheese the calzone was full of fresh veggies,cheese and hand cut meat the crust was light and airy and seasoned to perfection baked to a wonderful golden brown. Always happy to support small & local businesses when visiting Jacksonville from Atlanta read more

I would give them more stars Bc I like the food but the service is so slow. So so so slow. The owners wife is always sitting at a table with her girlfriends getting service while the rest of the customers are watching and waiting. And the facilities are so gross. Don't look in the kitchen. Don't look in the bathroom. I really like their pizza. But that's about it. I received a plate that had black mold growing underneath it, I took a picture, please see below. It's so freaking gross. Imagine what the rest of the silverware and dishes look like. Imagine what the kitchen looks like!!! If you have to try a pizza from them, get it to go and hope the oven baked all the germs off the bakeware. read more

Joseph's Pizza - Italian Near Me - Atlantic Beach, Florida

Service was great. I decided to try for the first time today. Pizza is pretty marginal, at best. I'm not sure if they are going for more of a Chicago style pizza but if you're looking for NY pizza...this isn't it. read more

Overrated for several reasons 1) The quality of pizza is subpar / not good 2) No delivery options on popular online delivery apps 3) Poor customer service when you do call in and try to order for pick up/carry out. Not impressed and would not recommend. read more

We were walking around looking for something to eat and we saw the sign for Joseph's. There were several diners outside and their pizza looked delicious so we went in. We sat at the counter because it was very crowded and we were immediately greeted by the manager who helped us. The pizza was amazing. The bruschetta was amazing (we got the special with the jalapeño in it)! Now can I please talk about the wings, we got the "hot" flavor and oh my deliciousness the wings were amazing! I am still thinking about those wings. read more

Joseph's Pizza - Hot flavor wings!! YUM!!!! - Italian Near Me - Atlantic Beach, Florida

Joseph's Pizza has the best bread that is baked fresh daily. You can even buy bread to take home! Their Italian meat sandwich is the ultimate heaven in your mouth. If you're visiting Atlantic Beach, don't pass up eating lunch or dinner at Joseph's. The pizza is amazing and everything is handmade with Italian love! read more

Food is marginal. Cooking service is bad waiters are nice and try hard. That's about it.

One star not for the food but you advertise that you are open until 11:00 pm but we come in at 10:00 and you are only serving slices AND you are putting chairs up on the tables while people are eating in the dining room. After being closed for so long because of Covid you would think that you would not be turning business away. read more

Great pizza here and you can set outside and watch the people walk buy drink a beer or soda and eat and enjoy a beach vibe . Love this little place good food . They serve several other items besides pizza. The Greek Salad is great too This place the bomb and I love it beach style!!!! read more

All day I have been thinking about how I can't wait to go home and enjoy my leftovers from Joseph's! I can't believe I've lived in Jax for 3 years and yesterday was the first time I tried Joseph's. Being from New England I've been SUPER disappointed with the pizza (and just italian food in general) down here. I was pleasantly surprised with the food, service and prices at Joseph's. I had a house Pinot Grigio (pretty good), caesar salad (average), side of grilled mushrooms (seasoned and cooked perfectly), and a gourmet pizza called The Venice which had garlic, shrimp, goat & mozz cheese (omg what a great cheese blend) and I had it with pesto instead of tomato sauce. That pizza absolutely rocked! So fresh & flavorful & cheesy. A thin crust like I prefer. I also tried my friend's fried eggplant parm which was soooo good - again so fresh and cooked perfectly. It's a small restaurant but it does have outdoor seating - great to people watch in Neptune Beach. Everything looked & smelled great! I'll be back when it's warm enough to sit outside and to try their gelato. read more

It was just ... eh. Ok at best. Edible but not satisfying by any means. We had 2 pizzas, garlic knots, and a Caesar salad. I don't see why everyone raves about the garlic knots. It was like a mock off of crazy bread. Idk. Won't come back read more

Authentic Italian food. Great red sauce. Been visiting this place for years. Their baked meals are the best. I love what they've done with place recently. read more

The staff excellent in this pandemic environment. The food overly spiced in not the Italian way.

I have been to Joseph's a lot lately. I am travelling to Jacksonville on business, and it is good to find a place that is not too big, with great food. Sitting just off Atlantic, Joseph's doesn't have the crowds of its rival just up the street. I guess the choice is greater there. That is fine with me; the quality is better at Joseph's. They make a good calzone, and I really like their cheesecake. Service is usually good/great, and I love sitting outside watching the weather go by. read more

Joseph's Pizza is hands down the best Italian restaurant in town! Every time I go I am amazed by their quality food and service. Besides excellent food and a fun beach environment, Joseph's portion sizes are huge! Pictured is their Baked Ziti with a GIGANTIC meatball to top it off. It also came with soup or salad (not pictured, but I got the Italian Wedding soup and is was delicious!) and garlic bread. I still had plenty of leftovers to have a whole other meal for lunch the next day. Bring your family and friends to Joseph's next time you are at the beach. You won't regret it! And if you're far from the beach they have a second location on Main St near the Zoo! read more

My hub and I strolled in at about 7:45PM on Saturday. Were were able to grab a table right away. We were there for a date night. The crowd was a good mix of casual families, friends and couples. I opted for the 10in Joseph's Special(I think that was the name) sans anchovies and my Hub ordered the chicken parm. I had an Engine 15 beer while waiting the 1/2 hour for my pizza. I loved my pizza!! I honestly can eat a 10 to 12 in pizza in a sitting(I like my food!)at other establishments. I was only able to eat half because the toppings were not lacking!! I love the fact that even though the pizza had alot of meat on it, it was not greasy or soggy. Ok... the crust is hands down my fav in Jax and the surrounding areas!! It was crisp with a nice non gummy bite. I would have like just a little more sauce and cheese.... but honestly that's nit picking because it was all perfectly balanced. My hub enjoyed his fried chicken parm, cut able with a fork! It was marinated with flavor and the sauce chunky and packed with spices and veggies. The fettuccini was of good quality and almost perfectly al dente. I will admit the sauce is an acquired taste, but you can tell that somebody's Nonnie took pride with her recipe. The service was amazing, attentive without being over bearing. It's a pup friendly place with tables outside! I really hope my new fav place doesn't disappoint in the future like others have. I'm so glad I book marked it. By George I think my search for great pizza has ended!! read more

The pizza was great! The service was even better. I grabbed a beer while waiting for my food to finish up. Met the owner while I waited, she was very nice. We picked them because they were close to the hotel and had good raining. Would definitely recommend them! read more

Pizza was OK., the crust they have is full pan crust. Nice atmosphere.. Accommodating staff..

Love this spot! Never have had a bad meal here. They go above and beyond for customer service! Realized my takeout order was incorrect when I got home & they not only remade it but INSISTED on delivering it to us free of charge :) read more

OMG don't go for lunch too over an hour to get our pizza. After we asked how much longer, he said just a few minutes. He also stated that their pizza's take 30 minutes to cook. Started to walk out because we had to leave to back to work. They the it in a box and handed it to us. REALLY????? read more

Hair was riddled in my meatballs which tasted old and frozen. I gag while i think about my experience.

Good, slow cooked/ baked food that doesn't disappoint. It's also at a good price point. One of the few places that still does a generous size single slice with lots of topping choices. Friendly service, food that doesn't drip with grease, excellent muffuletta, dessert, weekend brunch, bottomless mimosas, french toast read more

Joseph's pizza in general did not disappoint in quality, but the staff and service did. The inside is extremely small and the prices per slice with toppings are pretty outrageous. $ 6.77 for one slice of meat lovers pizza! Almost $4 for a sausage slice. That being said, I was with a group and we all ordered slices and it was busy inside. To my delight the pizza slice came out in a few minutes and it was excellent. After about 15 minutes the restaurant started to clear out more and I decided to order another slice with one topping. Out of the 10-12 tables inside half were empty. My friends left and it's now about 20 minutes later and no slice. I could see the cashier talking to a guy in the back asking for it several times over and over. Two more guys came in at that point and ordered the same thing as me and actually got their slices in 2-3 minutes. Finally mine came out. Being in the service industry when I was younger I know my management would have at the very least not charged for that debacle. They had no qualms blowing it off and taking my money. Epic fail in service. It's a slice of pizza not a steak, where they are making a ton of profit off dough and sauce and one topping. I wasn't disappointed in the taste at all but for the money and service there are too many other options in Jax. read more

This place was fantastic. We ordered bruschetta, garlic knots, and hummus to start. The knots and bruschetta were outstanding. Hummus was okay. The wait staff were super friendly. The kids got to make their own pizza and see it go into the oven. Highly recommend this place for a family to eat. read more

Great pepperoni pizza! The crust is good too. Amazing weather and cold beer. Makes for a perfect lunch.

Everything I have tried here has been good. I would happily put on a massive amount of weight to be able to enjoy their garlic knots and calamari everyday, however I settle for going a couple times a month. The wait staff is always quick, friendly, and helpful. The location is great. The only downfall is trying to find parking but that is just the area and has nothing to do with Joseph's directly. read more

We came here with a large group, and the staff did a great job of taking care of us. The Buffalo Chicken Pizza is a must, and they also have great Garlic Knots. I would recommend this place to any fellow Pizza lover. read more

I have been to the place a few years back and remembered it to be pretty good. I decided to go with my wife today & was disappointed. We started with an appetizer of calamari. I asked the waitress if it was fresh or frozen? She told me she didn't know, but it was a good seller at the restaurant. We decided to give it a try. When we received the appetizer the calamari was so greasy like they didn't give it enough time to drain and just threw it on a plate. They served it with some sauce that is supposably house made but to me taste like cocktail sauce and ketchup mixed together. We had to take each piece of calamari and pat it with a napkin to remove alot of the grease. I ordered the buffalo chicken pizza as my main dish and my wife the chicken parm sandwich. My pizza was just ok. I could have done without the lettuce and tomato on a hot pizza. Lettuce does not taste good hot and way to much ranch sauce on the pizza. My wife's parm sandwich was way to soggy to much sauce and they fried a bunch of tiny chicken nuggets for the chicken probably frozen chicken. Disappointed should have been a fresh battered chicken breast. Fries were also ordered with my wife's food they were soggy under cooked and no one likes soggy pretty much raw fries. Fries are not hard to cook. Drop In oil fry til golden brown? Very nice people clean place nothing wrong with the atmosphere it's a very nice place. The food needs to be up lifted. I remembered this place to be very good the one other time I ate there. read more

Took a group of 8 there for dinner Saturday night. Small place on the beach side but they are always very accommodating in getting us seated. Garlic knots are the best here, get them "swimming" in garlic butter.....delicious. We had three different types of pizza while we were there and all were very good. They took very good care of my parents who are older but love Josephs, finding and brewing a fresh pot of decaff coffee just for them. Service staff was very good and made sure that we had everything we needed all night long. read more

Who knew?? The best vegan and gluten free pizza in the WORLD is right here in Atlantic Beach!!!

First time eating here and SO delicious! One of the best pizzas I've ever had. We got the hand tossed, make your own. The crust was fantastic and the toppings were fresh. All the staff were very friendly and attentive. Great spot! read more

I stopped into Joseph's after a long day at the beach. It's a small space inside, but they have some tables outside as well. The service was friendly and they offer pizza by the slice. Their pizza is a heavy dough for me, I prefer a lighter crust. They also offer entrees and ice cream as well. I would return and try something different, or if I were really hungry, I would order a slice of pizza again. I would also order a pitcher of beer and snag a table outside and enjoy being at the beach. read more
