best place to eat in town. great atmosphere and wonderful staff.
Pretty frustrated by this evening. It was very slammed at OJs they seated us at the last table available then asked us to move as it was a reserved table so we were put on the wait list then seated again in about five minutes. Just to sit down and read the drink menu to be asked to move to a different table to make more room for another group so we did no problem then get seated at a third table. Asked for ID my 29 year old bf forgot his since we have been moving houses for two days and they wouldn’t serve us. I asked if we could just eat then and she said no we had to leave… what a joke we won’t be back.
My first time at this place and I’ve ordered to go. What a pleasant experience!!! Don’t even remember the name of the dish but it was an explosion of flavor that I had never tasted before. Must go back
I was in Lloydminster for a night and decided to eat dinner here. It turns out to a great experience. Comfortable, sporty, cool and friendly atmosphere. All of the waitresses were professional, yet very friendly and nice. Food and drink satisfactory. All and all I would recommend this place for good time, good food and drink.
Ordered takeout from OJ's which we do fairly often for a family of 3 it's about $80 so it's on the expensive side. Well they must have reduced the portions or something, we got a side of onion rings that was 4 tiny onion rings....and tiny chicken fingers. At over $20 per person this is unacceptable. For the prices 3 people should get a decent portion when paying this amount for a meal.
I recently stopped by here for a drink after work. It has a great open concept layout. The ambiance was great and the music was fun and modern at just the right volume. Original Joe’s is one of the rare places that sells Corona on tap which is a delight. The serving staff was great and they were decorating for Saint Patricks day and they seemed to be enjoying themselves doing so. The wings were half price on the Tuesday I went and they were perfectly dusted.
I came here recently for their Happy Hour. The restaurant was very spacious and service was good. In terms of food, I tried The Buffalo Chicken Poutinerie. There was a generous amount of poutine and everything tasted pretty good together. The only thing was that it became a bit too salty/overwhelming near the end with the amount of sauce.
Always enjoy my meals and drinks there. All the servers are really nice and always super friendly. Drink menu is great and food quality is awesome. Environment is good too at this place and it’s a nice restaurant for lunch and dinner with friends and family. Will recommend this place to anyone and will be going back there soon for some new dishes 🤩
Bekki and Aleesha were awesome!
Bekki is a badass bish
Friendly, outgoing, efficient staff. Service and staff are amazing! Our go to for date night.
Becky was absolutely fantastic

Always joy when you have Becky as your server..
Really enjoyed the Lloyd location. Bekki was fantastic!!

Great food. Excellent service.
Came here after the dentist to try out my fixed tooth. The poutine was great! Thanks
Kalyssa was easily one of the most competent servers weve had in a long time. No complaints about the food, either.
Great evening our Service was great Food was great. Didnt have a long wait for anything which was nice Was really nice to be asked about allergies Dietary restrictions: Was nice to be asked about allergies when we ordered
I come to OJ s quite often as it s one of my favourite restaurants in Lloyd. Although I always have a great experience, last night was the best! Our server Shyanne was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond to make sure that we had a top notch experience. I ve never had such great service. OJ s management please give some recognition to her for being so amazing! Thank you Shyanne for your amazing service yesterday!
Reliably good food. Good athmosphere.
One of the only places open past 9 oclock at night in Lloyd minister
Always great service and food. Try the big pig poutine if you want a full tummy. Staff always attentive and pleasant. Food
I had a lovely meal and dessert and the waitress was super friendly Update - try the piña colada today. It was great Food : 5/5
I love OJ s but whatever is the sauce or what on the chicken wrap don t put it on there. The wrap was a soggy mess.
The lady Manager working in the evenings is a lady of big heart and is so merciful and nice she really helped me out on getting to know that my bicycle got stolen from their parking I really do appreciate the quality of customer service she provided Thanks a lot
The food and service was good will go back again.
Omg I been on the hunt for the best burger in lloyd. This place hit the spot. The ace burger and I added bacon. Very filling and very damn delicious . Service was 5 stars. Well done Joes!
Great food, great prices..
Very good service. Attentive and good timings. Menu has a number of options for most palettes. Only downside is the prices are little high. Like everywhere else. Except you know where...
Folks we have to do better. I always patronize this restaurant for their wings. I learned tonight they switched to smaller portions. Less than a pound for $18! This was a shock and disappointment l. I told the waitress and she was very sympathetic. Management you need to bring this back on track before it impacts your business.
Last time I was at OJ s, I was pregnant and for the life of me I could not make up my mind on what to order lol Our server suggested the crispy chicken burger and I was so glad I went with her suggestion. It was delicious and definitely satisfied my cravings.
The Ace Burger was good, different from the brown rice and fries, cheese, and gravy.
OJ s is always a solid food, beverage and atmosphere vibe for me but tonight s customer service by Kalyssa was top notch! Packed & busy place tonight but she was consistent and attentive and a great waitress! Manager, take note!
Great eatery paired either good service!
Always a wonderful experience here. Great food, great servers. Have only ever once had a bad server in all the years Ive gone there. One of our favourite places to go to. Solid prices, love that you get 2 sides with meals.
Good selection of beer and delicious food, nice atmosphere and always good service. One of the best bars in the city.
I was at Ojs during the holidays. Went on a Friday afternoon, to find out the service was slow. Our waitress talked to one table at a time, didnt check on other tables as she walked around. She looked at the ground as she walked around. Like she was avoiding her tables. There was 2 times our glasses sar empty for multiple minutes. It would have been difficult to gst drunk if we wanted to. It was not busy, she maybe had 4-5 tables. We chalked it up to a bad server, maybe having a bad day. Next day we went in again. We sat down, and waited roughly 5 minutes before a different server served us. My wife and I ordered a drink each that was on the special. We waited roughly 15 minutes, still no drink. We flagged the waitress down and asked if we could atleast order. She said she would be right back. I walked to the bar were I seen my drinks plus 5 (ish) more and 2 girls standing around..i asked of I could take my drink to my tables the one girl said Ill get your server. That would be great I replied. We waited another 3 or 4 minutes with still no drink or server, so we walked out and called management, to which we were replied with its busy. There were lots of tables open, so no it wasnt. You had 2 girls standing around. Maybe get those girls standing around to run the drinks as it states the table # on the ticket. I would suggest a host to seat people, so one waitress doesnt get 5 tables (which should be easily handled) and 2 others get none. Or put the weak servers in the less popular areas. I will be making Browns my new spot. Do not go to Ojs if you care about quality service
Best place for a date in Lloydminster, incredible food, atmosphere and staff.
Food , waitress , price , and atmosphere on point.
Great food, service atmosphere.
Parking: Very limited with tight corners/stalls Wheelchair accessibility: All ground floor, wide walkways, curb to entry Food : 5/5 |
Food is delicious. Im definitely coming back!
I like OJs, but we dont go here often just because of how loud it gets, and I have a difficult time being part of the conversation. The service was good and so was the food.
Nice fancy place with good food
Delicious food, friendly staff, excellent service, very well ran restaurant.
Great place to eat. Wonderful service from Niki. Will definitely be back. Kid-friendliness: No minors. Food : 5/5 |
This is a picture of 30.00 nachos. Its messed up because I picked through to try and find the chicken. Its not Cajun chicken either. This batch is that cheap prepackaged stuff from the store. This place used to be so good, then they started putting vinegar in their guacamole, making it absolutely awful, now this. Save yourself the disappointment and go where you get quality and your moneys worth.
Don t come here with your babies. The OJ s Canada website says most of their restaurants seat minors, but the Lloydminster restaurant does not and the server told us they would be given a $10K fine from AGL if we stayed. We were turned away with our 4 month old and couldn t believe it. Mothers and babies not welcome here. Instead we went to Montanas as they welcome families.
Crown Float not on the menu, but you just have to ask . The staff at OJ s go out of their way to provide the best service! Thanks Tori!
Awesome vibe
Food was on point. We drove 2 hours for dinner and I could not be mad about it. There was some sort of hiccup in the service but the server was great and if there was no hiccup of some kind my stars would be less. Mistakes are what make us human. Seriously great job young lady!
Love this place. Great food options, and they are good!!! The staff are top notch, knowledgeable of their menu and have great customer interaction. They work well together and seem to have each covered. Great team good food and good atmosphere. Win!
Always feels like home! Food is great, atmosphere is fun, and service is by the friendliest and caring staff (front and back of house) 10/10 recommend, all of the time. Food
Had a great lunch at OJs and had probably the best server we ve ever had and we eat in restaurants frequently. Christieanne was very accommodating and asked every table about personal dietary and allergy concerns. Christieanne was also very funny and excellent to deal with!!! An emphatic 5 stars for service!!!
Food is always amazing. And good service! The dill dip, though, is what I live for, lol
It is just a great place, the food is great with lots of options.
Good soup
Got a mother days supper from here. The tacos and cheese were are as rock. Cheese and tacos stuck to the paper. Not enough cheese. Cheese is burnt on to the paper and tacos. Not impress with the tacos. .
Great service and great food.
A really nice place to eat. The service is great and the food is always amazing. Always a great to meet friends for a nice visit.
This Original Joes is a lounge only, and won t accept minors. Was just turned out into a severe thunderstorm because we showed up with our three month old. None of the signage on the exterior of the building implies that it s not family friendly.
30 .min to receive order. Food was average but expensive
Had there pulled pork was the best I ever had
the steak was NASTY!!!! i didn t like the steak because it was over seasoned and the inside was raw even though there are certain levels for steak i beat level 6 the waiter was VERY mean she flipped off i didn t like it! there was a nude photo of justin bieber on the WALL!!!!
The staff was friendly and the food and service was excellent good place to go
Great atmosphere and very friendly staff
Great food, wonderful service, friendly atmosphere, fun place.
I recently had an ACE Cheeseburger that was delicious. It was incredibly juicy, and the fries with garlic dell dip were on point. The Caesar salad added a refreshing touch. Id rate it a solid 10/10! The staff were super friendly.
The calamari is absolutely the best! Service is top notch along with the cozy atmosphere. Great place to grab a bite and drinks!
Very good restaurant (food,beverage, service,cost )
Nice place but Way to loud The Beef Dips Dip was terrible Luke War Beef stock is what it tasted like. The sandwich was great just ate that with Parmesan cheese left from our appetizer. Food
My coworker and I worked all day and needed a simple meal to end our very long day, and when we entered this establishment we were acknowledged from a distance by two staff. We sat ourselves in a very noticeable table and sat there with NO assistance at all for 15 mins (tables around us were waited on though) and so we got up and walked out (and ate at Tim Hortons) basically it seemed more like a party, and your staff knew the tables they were paying attention to. To me that is unacceptable and we will never visit your establishment again.
Excellent.very nice staff
Friendly staff!
It was good food, but the service was better.
Amazing food and service loved it.. Thanks Maxine for amazing food suggestion.
Really busy when I was there, but that didnt affect the service, our server was very attentive and accommodating, will definitely continue coming back.
I really like this place.
Chicken wings are the best
Service was so slow but good is always good. Today Feb 10, 2022 service was quick and food was quick and good!
Great food at really reasonable prices. The service was very good too. Its a bar though so there is music playing that is louder than at a normal restaurant. But with TVs all over playing sports its a great and fun atmosphere.
Grest food and superb service.
Perfect spot for the girls and I to go have lunch. I was disappointed they dont have steaks or a few more low carb options. I had to get the brussel sprouts which were surprisingly delicious.
Loved the meals the cocktails were amazing. Will definitely try their weekend brunch. My server miranda was amaizing .
Great food and service
This was a pleasant surprise. Having eaten in their old location, this was our first in this location. A restaurant offering both indoor and out, with plenty of natural light making this a nice environment to eat, with majority of big booths for good sized groups. The servers were pleasant and quick with the food which offered ample servings. Likely to return when next in Lloyd
Awesome service and great food. Loved it, wil be back.
Went on a date he asked me to choose the place i had to say Original Joes the food here is fantastic their fish n chips r amazing wings are not to big not to small. They r sauced up perfectly juicey never dry undercooked, overcooked the only thing id change would be no coating on the wings.And for u salad lovers u got to try their cob salad with the crispy chicken
Great tasting food, service and over all appearance. No wait times for this particular Friday evening. Nice location on the main strip, close to shopping centers. Parking is minimal due to all the other restaurants on location.
Food was great!
nice place good service and pirices and a great looking bunch of servers lol
Apparently not enough staff to handle a mild Monday evening rush. I was left waiting for 45 mins before the server came back to take my food order. I declined a food order, and went to Fatburger instead. I figured Id get my food a good hour faster there than at Original Joes.
Stopped here for some drinks. I had the pleasure of being served by Shyanne. What a sweetheart. She was so helpful and friendly. I love Shyanne! I will be back.
We were standing by the entrance to wait for a table along with another gentleman. The girl asked the gentleman beside us first knowing we were standing there for much longer. We had to stand there for another 10mins and no one approached us. Never going again!! Bunch of racist servers.
waited about 20 mins and no one was there to greet us. would give 0 stars if i could.
Great food.Staff excellent and helpful.Large portions.Varied menu.Nice patio.Ample parking.Many TVs.
Very tasty make and friendly staff make this a great choice.
Great Food
A good waitress would have offered water refills not just worried about alcohol refills
Honestly if I could, I would give zero stars. I was extremely disappointed with the horrid service. It took 45 for our server to bring two drinks. And it s was another 20ish minutes waiting before we were even seen prior to ordering our drinks. Considering it wasn t even busy tonight it was extremely disappointing for service. And the food was bland. The only that that wasn t was the hummus which is the only reason why I stayed long enough to finish it. The butter chicken was alright as well but it was so disappointed for the amount I paid.
Good food and excellent service but only 3 stars because the music is terrible Clearly not the music of choice for the majority of customers when I was there. Enough that I ll likely pass on any of this chain for a while. Play something that s tolerable, if not pleasant to everyone.
The worst service weve ever had here! Food didnt taste that great either. Not very busy, sounded like all the staff were in back talking laughing instead of serving customers... refilling drinks and clearing dishes
Super good and beautiful! The service is magnificent, welcoming and attentive to the customer. They know their exceptional menu and the cooks offer cutting-edge cooking
Parking: bit small but manageable
Always great food and service. Love coming for wing night!
Very welcoming staff and easy going atmosphere and feels like a family. Good food and a large menu with lots of options! Enjoy!!
Bright atmosphere and consistently fresh meals. Never disappointed.
10/10 would come again
Good food, great staff, very clean!
Excellent menu, great service by Sam. Very personable, caring, understanding and funny. Very deadly!!
Great poutine sizes. My Caesar salad tasted amazing, my chicken fingers were a great size and nice & crunchy.
Love the atmosphere of this location!!
Terrible I miss my favourite server #rip
Went for a quick lunch. Food was tasty and our server fantastic. Music wasnt overly loud- could still have a conversation without yelling. Will be going back again.
Ive never had a bad time or bad food here. We come once a week!
Very Original
Always a good choice.
Great staff and food
Nice place to go for drinks appetizers and more. Good service, friendly staff and comfortable atmosphere
Went for my anniversary dinner tonight. Was asked for ID. Provided my current paper copy drivers license since I just changed addresses. Also provided my social insurance card, my health card and 3 credit cards with my name as well as a student card with my photo and was KICKED OUT for inadequate ID . I WILL NEVER HAVE ORIGINAL JOES AGAIN.
Trying to figure out what kind of business wont serve you unless you are able to drink. We got kicked out before we even sat down because we had paper licenses.
Wings need to be more meat, not knawing on bones for 15$...wow for chicken bones.
Good burgers. Fair prices.good friendly service.
Sasha is a great server. Food was also good.
Good food and service
Great food and amazing service. Love eating here.
We didn t actually get to eat here so I can t comment on the food but after we parked and got our two toddlers out of their car seats, we looked up to see the NO MINORS sign. As we tried to wrangle our hungry, cranky toddlers back into their car seats (which they did not want to do) a server came out and said she d seen the whole thing and felt badly and gave us 2 $10 coupons for when we could come back without the kids! Such a kind gesture that we really appreciated! Thank you!
Great service, great food!
Over priced and food was mediocre, not special at all.
Not enough for lunch menu need more different things waitres was verry good
Great place and staff is helpful with the drinks and food menu.
Quick seating, friendly staff, and delicious fish tacos as usual!
Great place. Amazing service!
SOOO good! From drinks to appys to entrees this placd is great!
Restaurant was short staffed but that didn t impact the service. Our server was still very attentive to us and the food was delicious. Was even nicely surprised to learn that they have a discount when you present your CAA card.
Food was so good! I ordered the Crispy chicken burger and it was cooked perfectly! Love the homemade fries and dill dip too. Very filling meal!
Gluten free food. Great service. Excellent food.
I like this place!
Good place to eat. Good food.
Crispy chicken sandwich was as advertised. I got a side of Valentinos hot sauce for it, some fries and dill dip. So good.
Very friendly staff. Good food.
Fantastic food, great service, but would prefer to eat my meal without all the flies buzzing around us and our food. Spent most of the time shooing away flies, than eating. Couldnt enjoy my meal at all.
Excellent food and fantastic service
Great food, great service
Food is always good..:)
Delicious food and good beverages. Nice staff.
It had been a while since I visited here, so I had one of my favorites - the fish tacos with yam fries. I love the flavour of mahi mahi fish, and the yam fries still taste so perfect there, especially with the dill dip.
Great atmosphere and good food.
Went out for supper with the husband before a movie. We had Jenny as our waitress... shes awesome, so upbeat and overall a great waitress. Creates a personal experience. I ordered the spicy chicken burger on their seasonal menu and she suggested the Sriracha mayo as its pretty mild. Excellent addition! The food and service and atmosphere never disappoint! Left too full with barely any room left for movie treats.
It was nice to go grab lunch with my hubby.....weird to be asked if we wanted separate bills
Yeah, definitely eat here
Food and service was good. Out of stella
Had a delicious burger and fries with ceasar salad. And a molson to wash it down. Great service as well.
Awesome food service is always too notch
