Asked to seat inside. Was told outside was only available, so we took it. As we were sitting down, there were two empty tables. I asked and was given some pitiful excuse of why we could not eat inside. After waiting 20 minutes without a word from a waiter or waitress, we gave up and left.
HOWEVER, the personnel are very trustworthy. My wife lost her pocketbook and tracked it back to Joe's. They were pokite, and when she picked up her purse the next day, every penny was still there. We eat at Joe's all the time in Atlanta . . . food is great!
