Always great service and food at Original Joe’s on 51st. Ace burger was perfect and my wife’s wrap was excellent. Service was prompt, friendly and exceptional. Only complaint is that there isn’t another location on the south side. Keep it up!
Paige was a great server! New Shanghai Noodle bowl was fantastic. My kiddo loved the parm fries too:)
Very good chicken wrap and beef dip. The service was excellent. We were there right at opening, so management knows who was on shift and can say well done.
Hi came to this place to collect an order for a customer. I arrived at 12.20 pm and have been waiting since then. Then a girl came and asked me why I was waiting for and I said it's for an order pick up. She checked at her table and there was no order ready. So, she said it's not ready yet. So, I waited. After waiting for 10min I asked her how long it would take. She said the kitchen was busy and she didn't know how long it would take. She didn't even go to the kitchen to check on the order and she just said that to me. After waiting for 25min, one guy came to me and asked me, why I was waiting for. I said it's for an order. Then he said he didn't have any delivery order. But then I showed my order and he went back to the kitchen. After 5 min he came back and told me that there had been a glitch in the system and now they had started making that order and it would take 12min. This was after 30 min. I was really surprised, they didn't consider even delivery orders are for customers. They just neglect them. If the first girl when back to the kitchen and inquire about the order it could have been lot easier. But instead, she said the easy words " kitchen is very busy". This is the second time this happened to me out of three times I went there. After 48 min, I was able to collect the order. I was really disappointed about their service. If you are a customer, who is thinking of ordering food online from this location, please think twice and expect an hour delay.
May 26th,24 went here for late dinner early supper. My sister ordered the burger and fries and the fries seemed like they were cooked and then recooked again so they were literally burnt. Sent them back and got a plate of more burnt fries! I laughed so hard because the waiter said they were suppose to be like that! Lmao I’m an ex server myself and I would never serve these to customers! Disgusting! The coffee was cold AF as well! Never going back here but thanks to the young waitress for trying!
Rating this is hard to do...this was our first time eating here today. The food was absolutely delicious, the service fast and efficient. Our waitress was very polite and attentive. The only real turn off about the whole experience was the little gal that greeted us and sat us at our table. Her clothes were very inappropriate, not professional at all. We almost turned around and left. Cleaning the tables she basically gave every one seated in that area a peek show.
My friend took me there. We had a good time chatting over craft beer. He had fried chicken and I had onion rings. They were all delicious. One of the staff was really nice. She asked us about the beer and food, and she also gave me a box for the onion rings I couldn't finish to bring home.
Poor service, decent quality food, brought kids and were not so welcoming. I’ve been to various O Joes locations and this one just doesn’t seem to be up to par. I came here twice thinking it would be different the second time. The ingredients were not fresh, the foot tasted off, my toast and bread for bruschetta were stale/hard (likely stayed in a warmer for too long), wings were over fried. I didn’t bother getting pictures because I wanted to leave. Service - Server came and saw us twice both times I came, to take our order and deliver our food. I had to track down another waitress for refill and my bill. I also came with my kids, they were running around (of course) and staff seemed annoyed with them (even though it wasn’t busy).
I got the beef dip and I couldnt even eat it, it tasted spoiled.
They lied to me. There is nobody named Joe here.
Highly recommend the beef dip sandwich.
Food was delicious. Dill dip was amazing
Never had a bad experience here, the food is good, service is on point and the tvs and music are not overwhelming drowning out conversation.
Great service on a Sunday night. Food never disappoints.
A nice spot for a quick bite. Good service and friendly servers.
Would I choose this spot again? No.
Great food and service!!!
The bread for bruchetta was hard and barely any cheese on them. The dry ribs were very greasy, seasonings were bang on and the Cesar salad was awesome!
Amazing food, served with excellent service 100% satisfaction thank you guys !
My watermelon maragarita was good but disappointed in the food. My fries were way overcooked and quesadilla wasnt super tasty. Service was okay.
Food and service was great
The service was great only issue was my plate I got bottom of the bucket fries but had no time to reject my order.
Went to Original Joes for supper. Food was delicious We were served by Peyton. She was very good and we had our food in record time. I would totally go back to this restaurant.
Original Joe s getting rid of the grilled cheese burger, which was my favourite burger ever, is something I will never get over.
Order was so cold that it was almost inedible! Last time we were there the service was terrible & food mediocre. Wont be back. I recommend you spend your money elsewhere!
The food was so delicious l, I ordered an extra crispy calamari. The food arrived to our table on time and was very fresh. I will definitely go there again.
The tomato bacon soup is delicious!! The pasta appetizer is delicious
The Staff are Amazing! The food is outstanding! The drinks are terrific! It a recommended
Great drink, good meal.
My first time here will likely be my last - not the fault of the restaurant really, just not the atmosphere I was hoping for. Food and service were excellent. I was expecting the restaurant and bar to be separate areas, but they arent here. I dont drink alcohol, so it was disappointing when the first smell I noticed upon being seated was the smell of alcoholic beverages. The tables were all very close together.
Had some drinks with friends here midnight and the lady that was serving us was attentive and very friendly and kind. Definitely would come back here again. Food is okay, drinks are good. Prices are a little steep but seems to be normal at all places now.
Great meals all around here! Not too terribly expensive, great beer selection. Lovely staff that look after you pretty well. Was in during lunch hour mid week so it gets pretty busy with all of the businesses around.
Good food, servers, great time
Good service and friendly staff
Fish Tacos were great! I ordered poutine with it. My wife ordered a pulled pork with fries and dill dip, the dill dip is amazing!
With the prices they charge, you d expect the food to be amazing.unfortunately it was barely adequate. Chicken so tough it was hard to cut and the rest of the dinner was overly salty. However the staff was excellent, friendly and attentive.
Atmosphere was excessively loud, and the food came out cold for more than one person in our party, and this was after the main lunch rush.
Food was really good. Service was fast considering how busy they were. Music was a little loud but not terrible All in all a great place to eat Food
We had a reservation for 7 I reserved a shorter table as we had a lady with a prosthetic leg. When we arrived they escorted us to a taller table, where she would have not been able to get up on the high stools, when they realized that was not suitable we were then escorted to a shorter table...our waitress came & took our drink order we waited 20 min after sitting for our drinks & it was later when we received our water. Our meal came out we asked for ketchup & the 4 out of the 5 of us were almost finished eating by the time the ketchup was brought to the table. The food was excellent, service was turtle slow (Haliee) 2.5 hours for fish & chips, Buffalo chicken wrap & 2 burgers. $200-$250 Left a nice tip... Try To Do better Thanks
Wonderful service. Sarah was amazing and all the staff are very attentive. Love this place
Love the food. Best gluten free bun for the burgers! Dill dip is awesome for the sweet potatoes fries. The servers are awesome, restaurant is always nice & clean.
Went here a few weeks ago. Food was great and the service was exceptional.
Friendly and attentive staff, nice atmosphere, delicious food!
Great service & great food Parking: Plenty of free parking
They have good food and atmosphere, terrible location.
We were time limited, and the waitress made our order a priority. Thanks
The fryer oil was several days too old but otherwise the experience was good.
Great place to eat, drink, and hang out. Very peaceful and quiet, love the atmosphere, very great place and their burgers were great
Worst service since I was in original Joes in grande prairie. Dont go there. Waited 15 mins plus for dronk order while 2 other tables came in and got their drinks within minutes. There was on 8 tables max in the establishment at the time. I will never go to an ojs again
Was only second time Ive been, great food and atmosphere, we really enjoyed our selves. Will be back for sure. But it was my company that really made the evening. Thanks for the hospitality Original Joes
One of the better watering holes in the north end. Good beer selection.
Very good service and food.
This place has always been a go to. Always good
We had a Cobbs salad and Beef Dip. The lettuce was wilted and brown. We told the waitress. There was no discount. The Beef Dip was the lousiest I ve had. We ve had bad meals before at this restaurant. We are never going back !
No Halal options. Limited options for vegetarians. Delicious food. Great customer service. Nice and clean dining area. Love the atmosphere. Fair amount of waiting time. Clean washroom. Wheelchair accessible entrance. Fairly Recommend.
Okay soooo heres my speal. I used to go to OJs yeeaaars ago because they had something I loved (cant remember what now) then they took it off their menu and I didnt love anything else. A week ago my friend brought me to OJs again and I tried their quesadilla and I tell you, it was to die for!! So good that I just ordered it to my house a week later. I tried a few bites of my friends meal, it was also delicious. While dinning in the drinks were also amazing, and our waitress was also super friendly.
Was there on business the food was okay but our waitress page was awesome!
A little too dark for my liking but food was awesome
dry ribs came out burnt but they did fix it. the waitress did take it back and the kitchen fix it so that s a plus I guess but holy flies so many flies.
OJs used to have my favourite wings in the city Tonight, my partner and I had a disappointing dining experience. We went in for wings they are incredibly fatty and have minimal flavour. We won t be returning. :( **UPDATE ** After leaving the review, management reached out to me and wanted to make it up to us for our negative experience. The service was great (different server) and they compensated our meals and our first round of drinks. We both ordered the Cajun chicken burger (one Gf and the other regular). Both of us were very satisfied with our experience and although we won t try the wings again we can recommend the Cajun burgers and Paul the manager :)
5 stars all the way. The servers were friendly and prompt. The food was delicious and well portioned. Ojs was a great place to have a dinner meeting. I would definitely go back again!
Had drinks it was a quiet night but very good Parking: If it was busy parking would be a problem Service : 5/5 |
Cannot give a good review as it took over an hour after they took our order and still didnt get served so we left.service was understaffed.But as least we had a few drinks,but the server only came twice in that hour ..unacceptable in the service industry. So disappointing as we have been here several times and never had this before.
After Mentioning to the server that my stake sandwich was overcooked and dry, the server responded with Ill give the feedback to the chef. People at my table ordered a Beef dip. was bland and paid $2 extra for Sweet potato fries for maybe a handful. Did chipotle dip for the fries tasted like Vanilla ice cream. $117 for a meal that Mcdonalds could have done better. I would recommend going anywhere else.
The food was ok. Wasnt hot. It was warmish. Wasnt busy, not sure why it couldnt have brought out hot. Waitress was fine again, not busy.
Burnt fish and chips or should I batter...fish was pretty scarce...feel like throwing up
Great service but expensive
Great food , nice selection and friendly people working.
Terrible meal Absolutely awful service, waste of $150.00. Not a chance I will go there again. Food
Excellent service and meal. Kayla was our server. Excellent service
Went as a large group, our food was top notch and service even better! Highly suggest this location
Kid-friendliness: I went out with 2 of my friends to Original Joes and we found the food and ambience very awesome Food
Good service, good portions, good quality, had the 2fush and chips meal
Great place to eat with great food
Great food.
I was looking for a new place to try and decided on Original Joes. I pre-ordered my pickup in advance by 4 hours but when I arrived to pick up the order 10 minutes later then the scheduled pickup time was, an employee told me she would have to go to the kitchen to check on the order. Almost 5 minutes later the employee came back and told me it would be a little longer. I then asked why it wasnt ready at the scheduled pick up time I was told it was because they were busy. Sorry, but I dont buy that when they had 4 hours to prepare for it. 5 to 10 minutes later my order finally arrived at the front counter and no discount was offered for failing to have the order ready. The food itself had good flavor but the vegetables were undercooked. If you found this review helpful, please like it.
Nice place for lunch, good daily specials and great service.
Really good fish and chips. Could really sit and enjoy munchies and drinks if it wasnt a 50. 00 cab ride from home
Dinner with friends . Service was great food fantastic only draw back is turn the inside lights up just alittle
Great service and a great meal. Thanks for the recommendation for the Pacific Noodle Bowl. Excellent.
One of the waitresses there brii. Wonderful gal. Remember your face and knows how to treat her customers. One of the reasons I go back is hospitality. Food is excellent
Went for a late supper and the service was great. Very clean tables and surroundings. Food came out hot and fresh, with great flavours.
Very good food in over sized portions. Prices are high but no higher than Red Lobster.or Montanas. Decor is exceptional Atmoshere is relaxed.
Enjoyed a burger and beer. Service was good
Half price wine night! Always great service and a good atmosphere.
It was so good I didnt have time to take a picture. The food came out and exceeded my expectation. I had the steak sandwich with a poutine and a caesar salad. Yes thats right two sides for a meal.
The Grilled Cheese Burger, it was okay
Came to Saskatoon for our daughter cheer competition so we stopped into original Joes. Food was good and our server was very friendly. Would come back if we ever stopped into sasktoon again. Its a nice atmosphere to go for family meals or with friends to hang out.
OJs is usually good. Food and beverages were fine. Our server was not friendly.
We met friends for wing night. The service was great, the food and drinks were fantastic. The wings are not breaded, so my gluten sensitive partner could enjoy the deliciousness. Well be back soon!
Lunch with a friend
Great burger and awesome service!
Dont waste your time unless your a group of guys looking to be waited on hand and foot. Ignored by our waitress several times to ask for a spoon for my soup and a pepsi,she even made eye contact and walked away, never even came back after we ordered to ask if we needed anything nor did she ask when she brought the food out. Ordered medium steak, came well done so inedible to me, soup was cold by the time I got a spoon so waste of money unless your a guy looking to take home a waitress.
Very good experience all around.
Food was good ,waitress was very nice and did a great job
Very good
Great food and great service
Service was ok, food was great
Would not recommend the West Coast Chop salad. Very little toppings and the avocado was not edible in mine. Server was very nice and the other meals looked good though.
Service was amazing and food was delicious and very reasonably priced. One meal was a little smaller than initially anticipated but was still very tasty. The other 3 meals were really big with lots of leftovers Would have given 4.5 stars but didnt know how or if I could.
Good food, good service, convenient loaction
Burger was better than steak sandwich, Putin as a side wasnt fresh Honestly, I wouldnt recommended
Because of the waitress. Mar 7,2020 7-9:30. Im not good with names. Vegetarian options: Large selection of salads etc. Parking: Plenty of parking
Probably one of the worst meals Ive ever had... how difficult is it to deep fry fish & chips?? I was lucky to get maybe 5 fries that werent crumbs & the fish was so over-breaded & over-fried that biting into it was like dust! Dont waste your money at this place!
Service was good but food was so-so. French fries and noodles in soup were undercooked.
Lunch with spouse.
Good place to go after work for a bite to eat and a drink friendly style
This is an OJ pound of wings. Unbelievable. $15 1/2 for those. Only giving 2 stars because the grilled cheese burger was actually really good.
Vegetarian options: Theyve got lots of options on the menu. Dietary restrictions: Staff and kitchen are highly flexible and accommodating for making adjustments for dietary restrictions. Parking: Tons of accessable parking Kid-friendliness: Although this isnt necessarily a family restaurant, children are welcome to dine in until 8pm when it becomes a true sports bar. Wheelchair accessibility: Completely wheelchair accessible
Exceptional meat!
Food was good but took along time to arrive. Parking: Good amount of parking
Excellent burgers with a wide variety of other options, including some vegan ones. Good beer selection with wine and a full bar offering. Staff was well trained and efficient.
Generous portions and fresh food at affordable prices
Great service. Very friendly
Ordered on skip, forgot our Ceasars salads. Very poorly packaged. This restaurant doesnt care.
The food was good but it took a long time for the order to be taken and for the food and bill be brought. Dont come here on a tight schedule.
Early supper with a colleague and enjoyed it. Atmosphere was fun and lots to TVs to watch the game. We had burgers and they were very tasty. Service was good but forgetful at times. Would come back for sure.
I ordered chicken caesar salad. lettuce was brown in several spots. salad dressing was from a bottle. $19 plus tip. service was good. they didnt seem to care about my experience though. i wont go back
Food is pretty good. And good service!
Great food at a decent price.
Great food, great atmosphere. So glad I went tonight. Thank you Original Joes staff. Parking: Lots of room for parking. Kid-friendliness: Kids menu is good and love the brownie for dessert! OJs Its a great choice for kids.
Good food and excellent service
Order got mixed up a little. I wouldnt have the haddock ever again it was cooked to death.
Watered down whiskey.
Service was great , food was decent i had the cajun chicken. I thought it would have a bit more zip to it.
Ryan is awesome !!!
Best burger I have had in forever.
Had a Great time with another couple this evening as Covid is starting to loosen up a little. It was wing night so we ordered a number of different flavors. I had the Guilt and Honey(Guilt bourbon, honey) all goodness. The only reason it wasnt 5 stars is because of the noise coming from the concrete plant. Still a great evening and great service. Thank you
Went for wings after work they were terrible. Service was only saving grace
Great service and healthy food portions
Noce place to chill out after long day
So we ordered lunch at work and this is what I got the oil is just dripping from the fries and the fish the fries are burnt and the fish hard cause is overcooked Really awful ended up having a toast and this went in the garbage! Just a waste of money!
Nice atmosphere
I try to not be a pessimist but went in for lunch at 1145 with my son on his lunch hour because I had to be across city by 115. Had to ask for my lunch as take out at 1245 to make appt and son back to work. Not impressed. Server was awesome and apologetic but service was poor. Prob wont ever go back. Sorry.
Friendly service. Foods good
Great food.
Delicious
The food was very good. I had the Kona burger but switched the hamburger for grilled chicken breast. Generous portions and was a great combination of flavors with bacon, teriyaki sauce and pineapple. Only complaint was that the music was a bit too loud for the dinner hour.
Pretty good service, though it was fairly slow at the time, so I should expect so. Pretty tough to judge it on that, due to the lack of customers at the time. I must point out that this is no fault of the restaurant. We came in about 2-3 PM, after my fiances doctors appointment, and we were hungry. This was also during our 4th pandemic (vaccinations required). The servers did an excellent job at verifying us (keeping in mind their Covid restrictions, while also not being impolite or overbearing on the customer), and keeping us happy. The food was excellent. Fresh parma seasoned our appetiser (potato skins), and the chicken burger my fiance had, and the quesadilla I had, were the best we had tasted in a long time. The sauce was amazing, and, as a cook myself, I still have to figure out the addition used to the sour cream to make it so good. I very much look forward to the homestyle burger sauce. Gravy was a bit too much stalk, and not enough seasoning or flavor, almost underdone, but tough to tell for sure. Other sauces were amazing. The fries, however, though homemade, were slightly undercooked, but thats the least of my complaints. Most of it was good, however, I found the atmosphere a bit too loud to enjoy for a post-noon lunch (music was blasting), and the area a bit dark and dingy. Small points aside, I highly recommend this place. Great food, good service, and a decent atmosphere. A few lighting improvements would go a long way. Wish I took a picture to accompany this review, but we were in a rush, so I didnt. My apologies. Check out this place if you want some good home cooked meals. From what I can tell, nothing is frozen. I could be wrong. But you certainly do not taste anything frozen. A huge plus, in my books.
Staff was friendly, but the food was tasteless for the price you pay.
Its ok. The ace burger is nothing special, the bun was good though. Id skip crinkle fries, basically McCains and not very many. Fish and chips was decent, too much onion in coleslaw but thats just us. Really just an unremarkable experience, not bad, but not blowing us away either.
Ordered the Kona burger and wasnt disappointed.. Really good but a bit messy for eating in the vehicle..
Expensive for what you get
Good food!!!
