   The server was very nice and polite and as attentive as she could be during a very busy night. We had a reservation yet we still were standing around waiting to be seated for a while (about 10 minutes). It was very loud but understandable because it was completely packed in there. The vibes were nice but the food was very lacking. It took 30 minutes to get our apps then 30 more minutes for the entrees to come. The apps were decent, but the entrees sucked. The 3 of us got the Salmon, Steak Frites and Steak Ravioli. The steak was not good on both plates, it was flavorless and crumbling usually a sign of improper storage or overcooking it. The salmon had a weird burnt smell and taste to it even though it was not actually burnt and my guest barely ate it due to this. The server and manager were very nice in regard to the situation with the Salmon and took it off the bill which was very courteous of them to do. They did offer to replace it with something else at first but we didn’t want to wait 30+ minutes for a replacement after already waiting for so long. Overall, this place had very friendly staff and trendy vibes, you can tell the staff is great at communicating with each other and watching the floor. Don’t expect the food to be that great and prepare to spend a while waiting for food to come out. I recommend sticking to apps and staying away from the heavy protein items! It seems more like a place to hangout and get drinks / small apps versus an actual sit down and eat a nice meal type vibe

   Joey's is my favorite restaurant in Houston! Ambiance, food, and service are top-notch, 10/10! My favorite dish is the steak and sushi! Hostesses are always friendly, and the service is impeccable.

   The food was really good. I would skip the truffle fries as they provide a truffle dip not actual truffle fries, in my opinion. The salmon dish was delicious! Unfortunately, the service was pretty slow. We were going to have another glass of wine but the waiter took way too long to come back. We left and went somewhere else.
