Message: | I knew I wanted to go out but I didn't trust Joe's anymore. I noticed that Axe (ah-shay) which is on the corner opposite Joe's was also participating. I had never been but this was a good excuse. We had a trio of middle eastern dips with flat bread to start. We followed that with an antipasti plate...roasted beets, squash, goat cheese, toasted bread, green beans, arrugula and roasted corn. For entree we had the braised lamb shank. Everything was flavorful and excellent. It really could not have been better. The server was also excellent and you felt that all of the staff was pleased to have you as their guest. We finished with an apple tart for dessert. I was totally full, we didn't even finish all of the food. We shared everything. Bill was $69.00 before a 20% tip. That also included 2 glasses of chilled sake (good sake but didn't go with the food, what was I thinking?). They have a nice reasonably priced wine list too. This place is a keeper. |
