    For a NY steakhouse experience, Joseph’s Steakhouse has you covered. Great food, including the appetizers and entrees. The Steak was cooked perfectly and the taste was amazing. Good drinks, great bartender(Frank), very pleasant, courteous and he delivered top notch service as a waiter because we had dinner at the bar. The entire waitstaff have these same characteristics. Very, very Professional. Great job Joseph’s. One big difference between Josephs and a New York steakhouse……  THE PRICE. Joseph’s has a much better bang for the buck. Treat yourself to a great dinner, go for it.
