Description: Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab is the culmination of a partnership between Lettuce Entertain You and Joe's Stone Crab, the legendary seafood restaurant of Miami Beach. Opened in Chicago in the fall of 2000, Joe's features an extensive selection of seafood, flown in fresh daily, to complement the world's finest Florida Stone Crab claws. Joe's has quickly built a reputation as one of Chicago's top steakhouses, featuring the signature 16 oz. Bone-In Filet Mignon and 22 oz. New York Strip Steak. Matched with Joe's famous side dishes, dinner only gets better when capped with a slice of key lime pie. Enjoy a generous cocktail in the bustling lounge or the tuxedo-clad service of the clubby dining room and you'll understand why dinner at Joe's has quickly become one of Chicago's favorite social engagements.

I attended a business dinner in a private room here. We had a fixed menu with pre-selected appetizers. Wow! The platters of crab were absolutely mouthwateringly incredible. And then they brought the second platter of crab! I had the crabcakes as an entree and the house salad. Servings were large, and I was definitely full before the dessert. I will... More

Came in on the Saturday to ask for a table, earliest was the Monday at 8.30pm which we took. (Book early!!) When we arrived, we were shown our table and given an extensive wine list and menu. Ordered the 20oz ribeye with bone in, my Mother had the Lobster Tempura, along with baked potato and broccoli. I asked the waiter... More

Whenever I visit Chicago, I love to eat here. I cannot thing of anything that is not fantastic. Halibut & Mahi - they prepare this perfectly. The best I have ever tasted. Their seafood blows away any other restaurant I have been to. Jenny's Mashed Potatoes - delicious with a wonderful topping. Onion straws - as good as the one's... More

Thankfully I made reservations. We arrived about 30 minutes early thinking we'd get a drink or two at the bar or get seated early - that was not going to happen. After about 10 minutes we finally could get up to the bar! The bartenders were great and shared all of their favorites with us which helpful since so many... More

When I said I was there for a consolation lunch, the maitre d' said, You're never alone at Joe's, and Where better to be consoled? And so it was--excellent friendly service, best salmon burger I've ever had (little if any filler, pickled cucumbers and dill sauce to accompany it), choice of side--and I had sweet potato fries, always a favorite....

We enjoyed our meal at Joe's as the menu has tons of choices. The calamari was crispy and light. The crab cake was delicious as well. The tuna tartare was tasty but the temperature was not as cold as it should have been. The seafood chopped salad was nice but didn't have as much seafood as I thought it would.... More

My husband and I had dinner here for our anniversary. We are very picky eaters. He had the Chilean Sea Bass and I had the Alaskan King Crab Legs. First off the food was excellent, the waiter was great and the ambiance was nice too. The crab legs were fantastic-they crack them for you table side and you can enjoy... More

We went for lunch over Memorial Day weekend and had a great time. We arrived fairly early (11:35am) on a Saturday so there was not much of a crowd at that point. I started off with a bloody mary based upon the several drinks that were being mixed at the bar when we walked in. It was excellent and pleasantly... More

We had dinner at Joe's on Memorial Day evening. Though we didn't have a reservation, it is strongly advised to make one. We walked up and essentially got lucky (it was fairly early and the manager squeezed us in). Our server was friendly and helped us navigate through what all sounded like spectacular menu selections, and we all loved what... More
