" Captain Joe's has an impressive variety on their menu, which gives it a dining edge. On my first visit, I had the crab cake and it was a tremendous buy for a standard-quality crab dish. The portions felt right without being skimpy. The bar has a nice selection of wines and beers, which makes for a great pre-dinner drink. Considering everything: the service, the atmosphere, and the variety of food, this place is bound to leave you feeling satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a decent lunch at Captain Joe's a while back. The place had a cozy vibe, and the service was fine, if not slightly slower than expected. My pasta was good but felt on the bland side. However, my friends seemed to enjoy their meals a lot more, particularly their burgers. I like that they have a diverse menu, making this place a solid choice for different tastes. I would consider coming back though! " (*Curated Review*)

" Enjoyed a delightful evening at Captain Joe's last week. The blue crab stuffed halibut was exquisite and definitely a menu highlight. Our waitress could not have been more attentive—she consistently checked on us and kept our drinks filled. The ambiance struck a nice balance between casual and classy. We celebrated our anniversary here, and it made the event feel even more special. Strongly encourage anyone looking for a nice dinner to visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Captain Joe’s last week, and it was quite the dining experience. The service was stellar, and I particularly enjoyed their crab cakes, which were delightful. Our drinks were always full and that’s a huge plus! I also tried the steak and it was cooked to perfection. The only downside was that it was pretty crowded, but that just shows how popular this place is. I will definitely be coming back again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night was our first experience at Captain Joe's, and it will definitely be our first of many! We were a large party, and our waiter handled us perfectly, making sure everyone's orders were correct and drinks were always full. I had the grilled mahi mahi, and it was cooked perfectly, seasoned wonderfully, and served with a side of garlic mashed potatoes that were to die for! The décor had a nautical theme and was really charming. This place has officially won my heart! " (*Curated Review*)

" Captain Joe’s is a lovely option for a nice dinner out. We tried several appetizers, and the calamari was a clear favorite. I had their special halibut, which was perfectly cooked! The staff was incredibly helpful and seemed very professional. While the atmosphere was lively and fun, it was sometimes a bit noisy for my liking. Overall, I would definitely return for another enjoyable meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Captain Joe’s is a great bar and grill that knows how to do American fare right. I appreciate their fun atmosphere, especially when it gets busy on weekends. I had the burger, and while it tasted great, I felt the fries were lacking seasoning. However, the portion size was fair for the price, and I left feeling satisfied. With live music on certain nights, this place offers an enjoyable backdrop for a meal with friends! " (*Curated Review*)
