We drive 35 Miles to have the best pizza in town !Joseph's not only have the best pizza but they have the best salads, Calzones, and Lasagna ! Also the ladies that serve you are the very best ! It is always a pleasure to go there !
I totally enjoyed the food, the service was outstanding. The linguine with pesto is probably one of the best pestos I've had in years. Very happy. The garlic bread that they serve with the meals very good. The lasagna was good but I'm very very particular about my red sauce. What's good? Just not my cup of tea. I'm glad that I had to pesto. Everybody has their own taste, buds and opinions. Overall definitely a very beautiful restaurant. Glad I came in. 🙏🏽🙌🏽 I was in town visiting my mama. Blessed to have her in my life. 81 years almost 🥰❤️ ABSOLUTELY GREAT HOSPITALITY.. Kelly, the waitress wears absolutely wonderful and extremely helpful
I had not been to Joseph's in many years. My husband & I decided to go today and we were very pleased that it is just as good as remembered. We had an appetizer of stuffed mushrooms which were great. We shared a large Caesar salad. The Caesar dressing was homemade & yummy. We also got a pizza and added our own toppings of roasted garlic, ham, onions & jalapeño. Excellent!
This was my first time here and this will not be the last time. They also have a location at the beach. My family and I got a large half and half pepperoni and cheese.
I almost forgot to take a pic it was just that good!!! The service was awesome and very friendly. The restaurant was very clean. I also met the queen of the house mama Rose who was such a gem a true people person.
The cheesecake was bomb!! I mean if you want authentic Italian food give them a try!
My husband and I stopped off at this place while we were passing because we were hungry and wanted to check it out. It looks very questionable on the outside, but don’t judge this book by it’s cover! The food was amazing, had very unique tastes, was served very warm, and the portions are very large! The interior decorations are super cool and the service was incredible. When we went, it seemed like they were understaffed, yet the waitresses were on top of it! They gave us our food as soon as it was ready and I didn’t even have to ask for the check, she gave it to us at the perfect moment. The wait for our food was a little long, but not too ridiculous, and it was well worth it. We ordered the grilled chicken sandwich and Joseph’s Stromboli. The food is made from quality ingredients. Our favorite part was the bread! It looks like they make almost everything from scratch. Incredible experience! We will definitely be returning frequently from now on.
My family and I went to eat after visiting the Jacksonville Zoo. We were seated immediately and our server "Patty" was amazing!! Our drinks were always full and the food was brought out quickly. It was my son's 7th birthday and Patty took a cake we brought and put it in the freezer for us. Patty then brought the cake out after our meal and even brought out candles for us and lit them. Our experience at Joseph's was amazing, and I would highly recommend the establishment for anyone looking for great food, great service, and good family vibes.
My husband and I ordered the large pizza with Italian sausage. It was great!! The crust is always how we like it, firmer than most other places. We also ordered a half loaf of their cheese bread. Their cheese is always so good, the bread is crusty on the outside but so soft on the inside.
The staff was great! Greeted us like old friends. The salads were massive and loaded like they should be. The muffaletta was the star of the show. The bread was so soft yet firm and perfectly crispy. The olive spread was phenomenal and not chunky like others I've had that just fall out and the layering of meat and cheese was perfection. I'm going to be dreaming of this sandwich for years to come! My only feedback is the baklava cheesecake, which is such a unique idea and I love it, could benefit from a drizzle of honey but still it was delicious!
The Italian Wedding Soup here was incredible. I literally wanted to cry when it was finished. Very easygoing and casual place, and a great stop for a quick bite or to chill with friends and family. Totally worth trying out if you're looking for a great slice! Everything on the menu looked great, and our food was out of this world. I will definitely be coming back to try the pizza. And it's a family business!
Joseph's Pizza is the only place I have found that has excellent pizza short of going to the beach. I order a very specialized pizza and they always get it right. The price is reasonable too. I think they are too small for the amount of traffic they have. I order during peak dinner hours and sometimes it can take an hour for it to be ready for pick up, but if you can wait it is worth it. It is not bad if you are not ordering betweek 5pm and 7pm. The inside is crowded and I get the feeling the place is geared more towards take-out but you can dine in if necessary. The staff is friendly and really listens when you want to customize your pizza. Twice in 11 years the pizza has been wrong and they quickly made the correct pizza at no charge. If you want a great dinner for the family on this side of town, Joseph's is the best.
We placed a to-go order on their site. Was super easy experience. When I got there to pick it up, we were greeted by the cashier who must be the owner. Our pizza wasn’t quite ready so we took a seat and we’re able to just observe. The cashier pulled “mama voice” on a cook behind the window and then another cook came out with a tasting spoon to have her try the sauce to make sure it was perfect all while she’s training another associate on the cash register. This is truly a family owned restaurant!! Love it!! Our food was excellent. We will be back again and again.
