joey

for my meal i ordered the ahi tuna club. this is my favourite item at joey and something i have had on a few different occasions. the sandwich is made with a thick slab of grilled rare tuna. the tuna is really meaty and it makes a great protein for the sandwich because it is so tender. it is also filled with thick cut crispy bacon and panko breaded onion rings. both of these items add a nice crunch to the sandwich. onion rings on anything automatically make it good. i like that the sandwich is filled with arugula instead of just lettuce.  sandwic

joey's trip. went with 4 friends from the uk and were escorted to our seats by 3 canadian beauties. nadine (be still my heart) our server (with a northern territory goddess's physique) proved herself attentive, deliciously flirtatious, and empathetic to our seemingly never-ending orders of rum and coke high-balls.

the decor reminds me of an updated version of a hip retro-70s vegas casino.
service was great. men must love this place because all the waitresses wear short black dresses and heels. quite different from u.s. waitstaff.

next time i'm in coquitlam, i'll be back for more high-balls and touchy-feely antics. and maybe tequila body shots off of 6 star tattooed, nadine.

excellent!. joey coquitlam has amazing desserts!! my favorite is molten lava cake. i often visit just for the dessert. yummy.

didn't like it. the food was ok. regular price. menu is really small, not many choices. small portions. no non alcoholic drinks on menu. not even coffee. no sugar at table for coffee. but mainly very little choice of food and dessert. will not go back. service was good and was seated quickly

great food but a bit of a wait. my husband called and requested a reservation for same night dining which the restaurant confirmed and issued a time. we arrived 5 minutes before our reservation time and were told that it was actually a "call ahead" and not a reservation and that there could be a wait of up to 30 minutes (even though there were plenty of empty tables and no lineup??). i questioned why we were told to be there at a specific time then if we were in the que for a table instead of having a reservation as the person on the phone told us we had. the staff could see that we were a little frustrated so they decided to seat us right away after all (imagine that?).

once we got past the whole "reservation" vs "call ahead" issue the evening got better. there was a wait for drinks and the entrees due to a large group ordering ahead of us but the servers were really great at keeping us informed on why it was taking so long. the chef even brought out one of the dishes due to the wait time on the food.

the food quality was fabulous! i think it's one of the better meals i've had out in a very long time. had we not experienced the slight frustration upon arrival the restaurant would have received a perfect review.

surprisingly, there was no avocado here, but instead aged cheddar, smoky bacon, and spicy mayo on a portuguese bun.

joey coquitlam. came here for late night drinks and appies. first time back since the name change so it has been a long time. then again, i'm not sure when the name change took place lol.
this time around, i was really impressed with the service, atmosphere, and presentation of the food. we just had the seared tuna salad and a baked pizza-ish foccacia with olives, some kinda sliced cured meat, and arugula on top. a+ for presentation. can't say the same for the taste. salad had wayway too many ingredients in it (mixed greens, 3 sauces, tuna, peanuts, mango, mint, crispy noodles, avocado, tomato, carrot, the list goes on and on). dressing was kinda bland but the ingredients were super fresh so we still really enjoyed it. pizza part of the foccacia was crispy, cheesy, and delicious. however, the sliced meat was soooo gamey (gross) and olives were soooo salty. drinks were nice and strong.
must recommend the service again. our server had good suggestions, great timing for drink refills and was genuinely cheerful.
great place for date night or get together with friends
would like to come back and try other things on their menu
one thing i don't like is how it is so obvious that they hire based on physical appearances (men and women). shame on you!

love it! food was very tasty and well priced. decor and atmosphere is really nice. waitress did a good job and didnt have to wait to long for the food. overall a good meal!

loves it. service is excellent. food is fantastic. my faves: butter chicken, burgers soooooo good with mushrooms and cheddar and the lobster ravioli. basa awesome as well. im really impressed with the quality of the food. have been many times and consistency is there as well. enjoy!

best in class. great food. great chefs. its a good sign when you look around at the kitchen staff and they are clean organized and professional. this company is one of the top 100 places to work in canada due to thier commitment to training. joeys is pumping out red seal chefs which is more that any other "chain" can say. i'd rather a chef or cook who wants a career in culinary preparing my food over some 18yr high school student who doesn't care at all about food hitting my table. keep up the great work joey.

busy at times, but nice patio!. it can be hit and miss, but overall a great choice in the area. the patio is great!

make sure you sub your side for the crispy mash.

we just can't stop ourselves from ordering the sushi cones when we go to a joey restaurant. these are so much easier to eat than the japanese ones made with nori.

lousy. like the locations in bentall and burrad....subpar all the way.

one of my all time favorites. always good service, very dependable food. we always order the same things, pesto flat bread, tuna club and apple pie. portions are decent and we always leave happy.

very nice!. finally went to joeys after wanting to for quite a while. was very impressed with the restaurant on all fronts - building etc. was very nicely decorated, servers very easy on the eyes and the food was excellent. i had the california chicken club and it was fantastic! definitely will be coming here again for more than just the food! ;)
