Christmas Dining Pick: Joe's — Excellent Steak & Seafood 🎄

For Christmas, we booked Joe's — a classic American favorite. Who knew everything would be fully booked on Christmas? Our 4 PM slot was packed, and the place stayed full with high turnover — mostly family gatherings. But it was surprisingly delicious! Expected typical American fare, but the steak and seafood were outstanding — definitely coming back. Today’s Menu 🍽️ 🦀 Crab Cake So good — packed with fresh crab meat. Beyond delicious. 🍄 Spinach‑Stuffed Mushrooms A standout — each mushroom filled with cheesy spinach, savory and rich. A perfect starter. 🦀 6‑Oz Stone Crab Claws Already cracked — just dig in. Pricey but worth it. If only all crab were this easy to eat! 🥩 Porterhouse (30oz) We went big — why not? The meat was incredibly tender, even eaten plain. Huge portion — highly, highly recommended. 🥔 Mashed Potatoes Cheesy, savory side — cuts through the richness. 🍫 Brownie Sundae Brownie was a bit too hard. Most desserts were pies (not our thing). Key Details 📍 🍴 Restaurant: Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab 📍 Address: 60 E Grand Ave, Chicago, IL 60611 💰 Price: $120‑150 per person. Fine‑dining pricing, but the quality justifies it.
