    Food and service is amazing. Table was not ready on time which I didn’t appreciate and its alittle too loud there but based on the food and service, still a 5 star.

    IYKYK. I have heard of Joso’s for years and finally took the wifey for our anniversary. The ambience, the service, the food! This place lives up to the hype and it’s obvious why they’ve been in business for so long.
