Joe Shmoe's Bar and Grill — Restaurant in Alamo Township

First off, the food was great. That was not the problem. The problem was our waiter. Good service is one thing, but when you are at the table every 5 minutes, it is a nuisance! We asked for some time before we ordered, but the waiter appeared 3 different times before we were ready to order. The food came out quickly and was presented nicely and tasted delicious. As soon as our plates were empty, they were immediately picked up...I mean literally just moved to the side, and it was gone! The bill was presented, and the waiter explained what was needed and stood right there to take care of it and tell us there was a survey to be completed!! Once that was completed, we were deciding what we were going to do from there, and a person came and picked up our glasses. This entire experience felt like we were being rushed out, not enjoyable at all. There was not a rush for tables.

We shared a bowl of soup, 2 side salads, a thin pizza and complimentary bread with olive oil and herbs.Overall we were very happy and...

This was our first time eating here under the new owners and we will be back! There were 9 of us and the service was top notch. We had a variety of dishes. The ribs got top accolades as did the “perfectly” lightly breaded perch. The chicken Parmesan was delicious and with an included side, you could easily split the dish as the portion was so generous. BUT…the pizza was absolutely wonderful and to be honest, hard to tell the difference from the previous owner’s version. We really liked Joe’s EBA with a side dinner salad. It was cooked to perfection. Give this place a try, our group plans to meet here a few times per month so we can work our way...
