They have a tangy, creamy dipping sauce that may have a touch of mustard in it, that's good too

Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab — top-tier american in Streeterville. Come for the food, stay for the energy. Strong pours and a bartender who takes pride in the work, and group-friendly. Selan Bane: "The steak was tender and juicy, while the shrimp and lobster had a fresh, buttery flavor" [$$$$]

You obviously come here for the legendary seafood, and the stone crab claws and seafood salad did not disappoint—absolutely fresh, perfectly prepared, and incredible quality. ​But the real shocker of the night? The fried chicken. We ordered it on a whim, and it was surprisingly amazing! Perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. Don't sleep on the chicken when you come here—it completely stole the show alongside the crab. Excellent service and an all-around fantastic dinner. Highly recommend!

Our server Katie (Katya) was excellent and funny! We ordered 3 course lunch menu: oysters, pan sautéed branzino and lime pie. Each course was well balanced, fresh and flavorful. This is a perfect for seafood and steak lovers. I will definitely come back!

Joes is a great restaurant! Excellent food, lovely waiters, and ambiance. Highly recommend the lyonnaise potatoes, and raspberry sorbet. Also they are very accommodating to people with food allergies.

Amy is the best. I always feel so luckily when I get her! I’m a long time Joes fan and she’s just the type of server you want. This place is my favorite, even better when she’s taking care of us! ❤️
