This is a quintessential, old-school New York, Sicilian Italian restaurant. If you like Italian food, good to dinner here. The staff is very old-school New York but very polite and make you feel like family. And the Italian food is superb. My FAVORITE thing about Joe's though is the atmosphere - you will feel like a local here.
