My 86 year-old mom and I used to stop in all the time and that ended with the lockdowns. We finally were able to visit again this evening and it was wonderful! 1. It's been freshly and tastefully renovated (the booth seating is amazingly comfortable!!) A very clean look and feel. 2. Our server - RJ - was superb (super attentive, thoughtful, and helpful)! 3. Our meals were delicious! From the battered Cod and Haddock to coleslaw, every bite was wonderful. 4. The prices were very reasonable by today's standards and we did not leave feeling hungry at all. Thank you Joey's - keep up that great work!
We usually eat here about once a week. The prices are good and the food is great. It's your basic fish and chip place. The staff is friendly, the owner is down to earth and friendly. If you like fish and chips this place is awesome.
My fish was a little dry. And was quite "fishy" the French fries were the absolute best. The server, I'm not sure of the name.. he was fantastic. Great customer service!
Our waiter was amazing really Nice young individual we definitely recommend for others!! We will be coming back
If I ever order fish and chips at other restaurants I always end up saying the same thing at the end “not as good as Joey’s”. Consistently great food with perfectly cooked fish and crispy batter and one of the best Caesar salads anywhere! Delicious dressing and crisp, fresh romaine hearts. Love the new spin on 3 different batters for the fish with different sauces to go with. Really delicious. Service is consistently excellent and friendly and the atmosphere is comfortable, clean and easy going. Love this place!! GO THERE!!
I haven’t been to this Joeys in a few years due to the horrible state of the restaurant, staff, and food the last time I was here, but going to Joeys has always been a family tradition when I grew up. I wanted to continue that with my children, so I gave it another try expecting to be disappointed and I see that there have been renovations and new staff etc, not sure if there’s a new owner but needless to say this has been one of the best experiences going to a Joeys in a long time. Food was ridiculously fast, service was amazing, so friendly and respectful, the restaurant was clean, I will definitely be coming back. Thank you to Arjay for the amazing service !
Walked over from hotel. Had fish and shrimp. Started with Lobster bisque soap. Went with the bigger size. Was so tasty and the fish was very good. Hot and slight crusty. Fries hot and right out of frier Service was very good even though I made it just before closing. Restaurant was clean and the waitress was busy trying to clean and get ready to close. But she was friendly and through. Brought food over right away.
Havent been to a Joeys in years. Was great fresh ,hot
Turn off those tvs. Stupid videos are distracting.
Fish and chips October 1st were so delicious.
Great food and service, I am from the east coast and it surpassed my expectations, very good
First time trying North Joeys Fish Shack. Super delicious, they nailed the British Chippy!! Definitely will be back and give the restaurant a try. Food
Always quick and friendly service. Not to mention the great tasting food
Best fish and chips in central Alberta. Family owned and operated. Never a bad meal.
Always delicious and always great service! My go to fish restaurant in Red Deer. Definitely recommend.
Weve been coming here for years, the service is always fantastic, and the food is great! Highly recommend!
Removed points on atmosphere as I miss some of the tacky fish decor. The upgrades are nice though. Still have classic all you can eat nights! Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options.
4 pieces for 38 dollars? Will make my own next time
The new interior is such a fresh look. The pixelated picture on the wall is a bit weird, but otherwise, it looks great, and their food is just as good as ever.
My husband and son took me out for supper for my birthday , have to say the mates plate I had was not bad but a little overcooked , my husband and son had all the fish and chips you could eat it seem like it took forever to get the extra fish , the waitress didn t give the best service she couldn t even fill my water , only when we were done she had asked , now I know why i don t go out to eat for the price we pay to eat out the service could be much better
Always has great fish and chips
Super clean. Food was hot, fresh and delicious.Customer service was top notch.
Amazing food, friendly service Parking: Lots Food : 5/5 |
Awesome food, friendly outstanding service, very fresh clean atmosphere!. Keep up the great service! Kid-friendliness: Polite to children Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access
Excellent service and delicious food!!! Great prices too!!!
Just got seated and after that I felt like I didn t exist , the waitress would ask others how they were doing and if the needed anything but when it came to me no word was said just refilled on the things I needed and had 0 to no communication, I don t want to make it a race thing but I did realize I was the only African decent person there so I thought that might ve been it, good food , not so welcoming of a restaurant.
we just shared a 3 piece fish and chips. very good food and service!!
Rude service, hair in food. Nothing done because of it
Girls lunch out. Chose Tuesday at Joeys... The fish is SUPERB!!!
Always enjoy coming here.
To get the 9.99 fish & chips special a drink purchase is required. $5.00 for a can of pop is ridiculous. The savings was a whopping $1.69. That makes a case of 12 pop worth $60.00. Very disappointed.
I ordered a take out and it was amazing. Their tacos are my absolute favourite. Staff members are super friendly !!
Excellent
Food was awesome and so was the service.
We ordered the family pack and the portions were generous. The fish was exceptional and the tartar sauce first rate.
The server was friendly but did not come to check on us very often. The fish we ordered was excessively greasy (yes, I do understand we ordered deep-fried fish), however when you would go to cut into your fish the grease would ooze out.
The fish was awesome. Will definitely be going back
Great food, we had a very nice dinner.
Parking: Not sure but we didnt have a problem Wheelchair accessibility: Has. Wheelchair accessible Recommended dishes Joeys Famous Fish & Shrimp Combo Parking space
Shouldnt of gotten rid of the macaroni and cheese off the kid menu
We tried Joeys for the first time last night. Now I dont care for a lot of fish and chips from out west being from the east... this is the closest Ive found to east coast fish and chips in the Red deer area. So good, food was cooked perfectly, and packed neatly. The staff were super friendly like they love their job. I will definitely be going here for a fish and chip night Parking: There is a decent amount of parking. Kid-friendliness: Super friendly staff and seen a few kids in there having a blast Wheelchair accessibility: There is a nice place for a wheel chair to get into the place and Im sure they coukd easily accommodate.
Just got for lunch here today and so dis appointed. After we place an order we waited for 30 mins then the server told us that one of the food that I order is not available so we change it. Then wait another 15 mins with our order then they give my order wrong. I order a bangkok bowl they give me buddha bowl. I have to return it. Will never comebakck here anymore.
Poor service, We ordered 2 BANGKOK BOWL, 2 CHICKEN BITES and FISH AND CHIPS for dine in. And after 45mins she gave us the wrong order. We got 2 Order of Buddah Bowl. And she told us the chicken bites is already sold out. WTH!
Great food and great staff
Hot, crispy and tasty fish and chips. Super clean restaurant and great service. Great prices
The food was good and service.
This is our go to place. Always great. The take out is always great too. All the staff attend to our needs and glasses are never empty. Family owned for every family.
Very disappointed with the halibut and Fries. That was halibut and fries were mixed old cold and refried! Very very disgusting for 40 dollar dinner. Food
We love eating there, great food, price is really going up
New management is doing a wonderful job. Bravo!
We ordered take out and got the $30 special (battered fish, fries and coleslaw) The food travelled from Red Deer to Lacombe and it was still hot and not an ounce of grease from sitting when we opened the boxes. There was so much food for the price we paid! And the fish was awesome !!! Such a light fluffy batter! We will definitely order again!!! Thank you for a great meal!!!
Good fish
Excellent deal - $30 to feed the whole family! Generous portions and tasty.
Yum, Fresh fish& chips. Food
Been here a few times over the last couple of months with various sizes of groups, from just the two of us to a large group of family as well as just a couple friends & every time its been hot, fresh, crispy deliciousness with great service for everybody! Will keep coming back any time we crave delicious fish&chips!
Good food, good service, and a very nice remodel of the business.
Was fairly disappointed with my food. Went for take out. Wasnt given any utensils or a lemon wedge. The fish was so greasy it was dripping out of the box. Fries werent that good either. Not worth 17 bucks.
Excellent food and service.
Excellent job
We ordered Atlantic salmon, clam chowder. The salmon was cold had hardly any seasoning, very bland, and the clam chowder was not good at all, and it was lukewarm, and our side was seasoned vegetables. They were also very bland, would not eat there again. When I was younger, this is one of the best places to eat.
Our familys favorite place to eat. Great customer service, great food and worth the drive. Highly recommend!
Been here a few times now with my family. All the staff are friendly and even had a chance to meet the owner. Well be back for more fish n chips and other yummy food.
Came here for lunch. Place was empty but busy with Skip orders. We were taken care of right away and the food was great.
It was nice there could have been a few more selections on the minue like there was before covid
My son and I frequently go for dinner here. Friendly staff and the food is consistently great
The five stars are for the waitress .... she was amazing !!! Food was good, prices good. Will definitely go back. Parking: The parking could have been a little better. Some of the lot had the snow pile not their fault. There will be more in the summer
Always good Vegetarian options: Tofu Food : 5/5 |
Great atmosphere. Great service. Fish not too much battered. Clean. Overall, very good.
Always delicious and very great service everyone should try their food
I was craving fish n chips really bad so we decided to get takeout & I was NOT disappointed! I love the way they bread their fish & the cheesecake was awesome. Will definitely be returning
If you want fish and chips in Red Deer Joeys is the best choice. The coconut shrimp appetizer is awesome too. For desert go for the key lime pie, it is excellent! Kid-friendliness: Kids menu available
I had a 3 piece cod with fries. The food was hot, and the fish was very good. The fries were nothing to write home about. The typical frozen fries served at a lot of other fish and chip restaurants. They could improve by using fresh cut, but that is only my opinion. My biggest fault with this location is the size. I think they are trying to fit too many tables in a small space, which detracts from the atmosphere. Some people might be OK with this, but after working long hours, the last thing I was looking for was a crowded restaurant. When I visited, all the tables were occupied, and unfortunately, I was seated in the middle of the room next to a rather obnoxious woman that felt it necessary to play her you tube videos on her phone while some of us tried to unwind. My only other complaint would be the lack of staff. The waitress did an excellent job considering she was the only one waiting tables. Perhaps consider hiring one more staff member for peak times. All in all, good fish, reasonable prices, and quick and friendly service if you dont mind sitting in a crowded room.
Fish is good and staff was eager to serve
Expensive went for all you can eat and waited 20 min for more fish so got tired of waiting paid bill and left me and wife wont be back, It was 2nd of May I believe on a Tuesday at supper me and my wife were there
Me my wife went in may 2 and had all you can eat fish and chips waited 20 min to have are 2nd helping and decided was too long so we left was expensive for 2 orders of fish and chips cause took to long to get other prices of fish we will not be back 8
Good food, been a couple times. Staff are friendly, even if you show up with a large group to try and throw them off Still great good and service
Delicious! Service was amazing. Also they deliver which is a bonus
We were seated and waiting for the rest of our party to come. Our wait was extended due to circumstances, and so we ordered a side of fries while we waited. Our server was kind and asked us if we would be getting fries with our meal, and we said yes, we would be. So essentially, she just gave us a side of our own fries :) The fries were piping hot and fresh. I would go and just eat the fries. That was a very friendly woman who served us that day. She was welcoming and conversational. I had the Lobster Bisque and 2 piece Joeys fish and chips. Both were very delicious Kid-friendliness: They had a kids menu. They offered coloring and a coloring page aswell.
Excellent food and super friendly service! Highly recommend eating here
Best Fish & Chip place in Red Deer. Good portions and properly made!
Parking: There are other businesses as well so parking can be a little bit harder to find a spot on Tuesday supper time. Food
Always great food and great service.
Expensive
My husband and I love doing to Joeys. We always order the same thing. He gets the three piece of fish with fries and coleslaw and I get the two piece with the same as his. We also get the coconut shrimp with the tasty dip. We get those shrimp nice and freshly prepared. Theyre hot when we get them and still got by the time were finished. They really are that tasty. We like to go on a Friday, dont know why, its just the day that we choose to eat there. All of the staff are so friendly and helpful. We usually end up with not just a conversation with the server but also with the owner. The restaurant is always very clean as are the tables and floors. Its a nice enjoyable place to go for a nice fish supper. Enjoy your meal, Joanne and Paul White
This location is in an odd spot. Away from the busy areas in Red Deer. That didnt take away from enjoying a great lunch. The owner was friendly and attentive as we were the only patrons. The food was Joeys usual fair, served hot and fresh, however the service made the meal memorable. Definitely an 8/10.
I had an amazing experience at Joeys Seafood Restaurant! The ambiance was charming and welcoming, creating the perfect setting for a delightful meal. The menu offered a wide variety of fresh seafood options that were expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. The attentive and friendly staff made me feel like a valued guest, and the service was top-notch. I cant wait to return to Joeys for another fantastic dining experience!
I had always wanted to try out Joeys Only and only got a chance to do so recently. The best seafood I have had in Canada. Loved the service and the way they set up the place. Will definitely come again although a bit pricey.
Good
Maybe its difficult in Alberta to get truly great seafood as it isnt coastal, but theres really no excuse for the dry cardboard strips pretending to be fries. Service was great and attentive. Nice decor too, fits the theme. Fish was fairly decent, but as mentioned the fries were overcooked and totally tasteless - they are definitely not fresh made, straight from a freezer bag.
The food and service is excellent!! We always enjoy coming here. Highly recommend!
Amazing quality and taste of food. Huge portions. Delicious. Expensive. Kid-friendliness: A cool surprise for the kids too! Food : 5/5 |
Delicious fish and chips with lots of choice.
Absolutely delicious and I will be ordering again and again.
Excellent fish and chips Great service by the owner/operator Food
Good ol fish and chips. They have different choices of fish and other foods. I find the newer choices of other foods nice as well. The ability to have a beer or wine now is an added bonus in some locations. Food
Excellent food and service. I loved my fish ànd chips
Went to the red deer location, waited for a long time. Two other people came in and were served in under 5 min because they complained about how busy the restaurant was and were about to leave. Terrible customer service. Won t be going back
Excellent as always.
I ve been going here every Thursday for the past couple months and it only gets better and better everytime, on top of the food being delicious it s also quite affordable and the ambiance of the newly renovated restaurant really brings it all together, definitely worth trying.
Me and my husband went in yesterday for lunch and had a poor experience. The last time I was here was about 6 years ago and I remember it being great, unfortunately that was not the case for yesterday. The waitress was rude and cold and very un polite and made the experience worse than the actual food. My husband ordered the shrimp and fish feast and I got a side of crab, the fish was basically all breading and it was chewy, the shrimps tasted like they were microwaved and the crab was absolutely tiny and it was overcooked and barely any meat in the shell, it was a waste of $20. The only thing that was nice about our dining experience was that the renovations looked nice. Will not be going back.
Amazing food, best Fish & Chips. Also recommend the Fish Tacos too!
Dont get take out, what a joke. 5$ for eztra cole slaw you get half a cuo. 4$ extra for truffle garlic fries with no flavour and almost no cheese. Dish was only decent part nut the rip off for the rest if it doesnt add up. Called the restaurant was told by who I assume is the manager well Im not in the kitchen I dont know what you want me to do, call SKIP and maybe the will refund you. Not getting my $$ again.
Hungry? Good - you wont be after you leave Joeys. Joeys Seafood (not to be confused with the other Joeys chain) is tucked away off of Gaetz, hidden behind BPs and is easy to miss unless you know what youre looking for. The south location closed a while back (also a bit hidden), but it is ABSOLUTELY worth the going out of your way for. First off, Tuesdays have an all-you-can-eat fish & chips special, and Thursdays have all-you-can-eat fish tacos: both are great options, but Ive been please with most of the menu, including the variety of appetizers that are offered at reasonable rates (and can also be combined into an appy combo for even greater savings). While they usually run a pretty lean staff, Ive never been disappointed with service here, or the speed the food comes out. Now, youre not going to get anything fancy here, but as long as youre not expecting anything except deep-fried comfort food, you will not be disappointed.
Having worked at a Joeys in the past, I was happy to find one where I moved to. However, each time I ve ordered I ve been disappointed. Usually get delivery, and almost everytime there is something missing. I have brought it up each time and one time got a discount. The serving sizes are lacking... I know what they are/should be having worked at a Joeys in the past. This location is missing the mark. Here is the lobster Mac and cheese I got today. 1/2 full container (if that) with one piece of meat. So disappointing.
Great food great service. I ordered 2 pieces she gave me 3 cause they were small. So thoughtful!
Very good fish and chips along with the service
Probably the best fish I know outside of the Atlantic provinces
this s what you get for 15.00? and over an hr to get cold food :(
Enjoyed the food and servers, nice dining experience
Ordered take-out. Out of all 5 appetizers only 1 was NOT done in the microwave. Watery shrimp and dry salmon. Guess I expected more pride to go into the food.
My favourite place to eat anytime I am in red deer. Food is amazing, always made fresh. Portion are good sized, leave full and happy. Service for dine-in or take out is always friendly and fast. Restaurant is always clean from the floors to the bathrooms. Can t recommend this restaurant enough.
Always liked the fish, the one in Lacombe closed years ago, so to pick up some today is a real treat.
Great food. Friendly, prompt service.
Ive always enjoyed Joeys seafood restaurants. I can say you always get good fish and chips there. I cant say anything for the other food as Im not a big seafood person but the fish and chips get a two thumbs up.
Excellent service, great food
Went back last night for all you can eat Tuesday, it was great service and fast. A++++
Good food for a reasonable price.
Ate there about 2 weeks ago and was very disappointed . Fish was ok but chips were terrible . old and reheated and many small bits of potato .When I mentioned this to the server after my meal ( my mistake -should have spoke up when served) she said I should have mentioned it earlier .Place was not busy at all and the server should have seen the bad quality of chips and got the cook to replace chips before serving it to us -it was very obvious . For the price not very good quality and wont go back.
Great customer service and food
Weve ordered halibut fish and chips for takeout multiple times and we were happy with the meal, tonight Im questioning the halibut, was mushy and tasteless. Fish was more like poor sole and Ive certainly had lots of both. Hope their supplier of Halibut has better quality than what we got.
Delicious..and satisfying!!
Enjoyed it very much. We had 3 piece fish meal. It was delicious. Totally recommend.
Great meal. Stayed warm for the trip home. I ll be back!
Good food. Ordered take out. Fast service
Always good service and food tastes are consistent
Tonight service wasnt she blamed me for something I didnt do the last time I was here told me no refills In the past Ive enjoyed it very much and I wont be back and being in the public service Ill share with people the poor service and the fries were burnt and mostly ends in other words Im very much displeased
Phenomenal service, we left full and happy, we had a larger group and were not disappointed.
Love eating at Joeys. Food is always delicious.
Tonight was the best quality calamari I have ever eaten in Red Deer, I expected~meh~ and we recieved exceptional! The fish n chips were great, but more than this girl could handle! We have has the same amazing server for Years now, *so would recommend that you tip the staff well, the pandemic was/is hell on the food industry, and they need a bit of a show of support, for surviving on servers wages, but with no tips, because most sales were done takeout, if at all.. So everyone dig a little deeper to help the businesses in our own back yard.. You wont be sorry, AND the food is great quality, with big servings!
Front desk is brash for I dont know what reason
Great fish food
Good fish n chips..portion size was good ...attentive server
Reasonable selection of seafoods, breaded scrimp was over breaded, good size portions
Excellent food and service, as always. Thanks for a great meal.
Food was very late, it was cold, fries are like cardboard but what made it the worst is my 7 year old granddaughters dinner wasnt in the bag when it came. When her dinner arrived an extra hr late she was already in bed. Not all children like fish that is why we ordered her chicken strips so we had to make her something else she felt very left out, last time we ever order from you! No we did not get extra chicken only extra fries, sorry but cant replace what happened to a 7 year old little girl lastnight!
Order delivery weekly s. Orders are always fast fresh and amazing. People taking my orders as well as drivers are very friendly and helpful. Wonderful experience with Dine- in and delivery. Highly recommend this place
One of our favorite places either dine in or delivery . Staff and drivers are amazing food is fresh fast and delicious. Portion are large. You won t be disappointed.
Had not been for a long time...was delicious and they make gluten free as well
It was very delicious I went there on a date for there all you can eat fish and shrimp the date was awesome our waitress was fantastic her name was Amber and the restaurant was very accommodating of my service dog who is a miniature dachshund
Good menu variety. Told restaurant was going to get a new refreshing look. Need to come back.
Love Joeys its a pity that they have closed a lot of there stores. They need more of these.
Great food. The service is still friendly and prompt.
Hairs in Coleslaw and fish was full of bones. Waitress didnt care, paid for food and left without eating.
I cant remember the last meal I had that I enjoyed more. Everything was fresh and tasty. Service was excellent. Restaurant was clean. Will definitely be back.
Great food. Very tasty.
Very good service. Fish was great.
Friendly, very clean and good gluten free options!
Great food but a little pricy, obscure location, hence not too often we go there. But great food
Great service.
Our server Amber was super nice and food was fantastic. Usually not a fan of raw spinach but on the Ogopogo sandwich was awesome.
Fish was awesome, fries not so much. Ordered sweet potato fries, those were good. Good service also.
She is very cool and excellent fish and chips
Service always great and affordable
Its about the same as every Joeys Ive been to. Service was not great though. Only one server and it was fairly busy.
Favorite place for fish n chips I ordered pick up and it was ready before I could get there! Im so impressed!
Service was awesome our waitresses was very friendly and she was the only one on restaurant was busy great girl . Very impressed !!!
Mediocre food and service. I had much better service at the Airdrie location.
Great fish and chips, in person or delivery. Wish they were not so far from home.
Fairly fast excellent service nice place to eat staff are great
Good place to eat good service
Love the fish.
Great halibut but the sautéed shrimp tasted awful. The fries were burnt and not very good at all.
Busy busy busy but somehow our waitress kept up and the food was great.
This was my 1st time eating at Joeys and it was absolutely delicious I was generally I wish I lived in red deer so I could eat it every day.
