Food was amazing! Service was amazing (thank you Michael)! I would highly recommend the porterhouse, creamed spinach, Joseph’s special salad was out of this world and the pecan pie. I cannot believe I lived in Bridgeport for so many years and never tried this place. Absolutely worth every penny.

We had an amazing time here! The food was so delicious and beyond. For the main course, we both had surf and turf and their special salad. After that, we had Both meat and lobster were delicious, fresh, and juicy. After we had pecan pie for the dessert - which we both tried for the first time and loved it. We loved the atmosphere, service, food, and wine selection. If you are a foodie - we recommend.

Food is good. Service is kinda meh- I understand this is probably the best one around this area and price isn’t bad either but server got our order wrong never got it fixed and took more than 1.5 hours+ for our table to finally have some food. Food came out much later than other tables that came after us.

The ambiance has been perfected! The food is cooked to perfection! They came out and sang happy birthday to me! Shout out to Angelo for fitting us in on a Saturday night! Thank god for the ice and snow!

Aye foodie fam, finally pulled up on the heavily touted J Steak-ems after a long overdue wait. As an offspring of the acclaimed Peter Luger's in NYC its been on my list for a while! Walking in you get classic olde world butcher block vibes with nice wood accents and fresh clean linens. The wait staff is too notch and attentive even during an afternoon lull as I stopped in for a late lunch ao finding a table was a breeze. Menu hits on a bunch of steakhouse staples and delivers on most fronts...from the complimentary bread all the way to dessert you can't go wrong gang! The steaks, lord, lets talk about dem steaks!! Tender and full of flavor these bhaddies are cooked to requested doneness and the presentation is classy af...the sides are executed well and the friggin bacon gives Luger's a run for their money and you let me tell you....ya don't leave this place hungry!

I stopped by to see what people were speaking about at Josephs. I was alone and ate at the bar. It was exceptional service with Frank welcoming guests and providing a great dining experience. Very classic steakhouse with fantastic food and service.

Fun night out with friends. Ordered the Caesar Salad and the Joseph’s Special Salad. The bacon on the special salad was sooo good!! Porterhouse and the rib eye steaks were cooked as desired, could have used more seasoning. Creamed spinach came out watery but was tasty. The asparagus was average. We had a baked potato side, no butter or sour cream was included. Chocolate Mousse Cake for dessert was decadent! Service was very good as was the timing on the food.
