Reviews For JoeGatt's Food & Cocktails

Wow. I can’t believe this is only been my third time here in my 39 years of living. This place is a stand out. From start to finish, everything was super good. The bartender was friendly and attentive. When he greeted you, you just instantly felt at ease. So I am a big Italian foodie, and I ordered the chicken Parm dinner entree. Everything came out super hot and the biggest pieces of chicken I have ever seen. I definitely have leftovers for later which I am very grateful. I am very particular about Italian food, and this one nails it on the head. I will be back!

Service was great, a little noisy but probably to be expected with the sports bar. The salads were fresh and plentiful, entrees delicious. My husband loved his chicken Marsala and my Penne Ala Gatts was fabulous. It was out first time there - we will be going back!

We’ve enjoyed Joe Gatt’s many times in the past five or so years and last night I have found a new favorite dish. I had their Chicken Marsala and it was excellent. My wife usually has the Chicken Milanese and it too is excellent. Joe frequently visits the tables and is very gracious and thankful for our patronage. This restaurant continues to be highly recommended.

What a TREAT! EXCELLENT IN EVERY SENSE! From Brian, the friendly, smiling greeter, to Gina, the friendly, smiling, and very competent waitress, to the DELICIOUS food. Starting with a very generous salad, then possibly the best pork chop, (with carrots and a baked potato), that I’ve ever had. I highly recommend. Mike M

We discovered Joe Gatt’s a few years ago for their oyster night and have since been regulars for drinks and dinner. We’re always pleased with the food, ambience, and service (which I would have rated 5 stars but there is normally only one woman serving customers at the bar and she’s running non-stop so it can take 10 minutes to get a cocktail.) We recently held a family dinner in their upstairs dining room and were extremely pleased. Our server was excellent, the room perfect, dinner selections ample and yummy. Joe went out of his way to accommodate our needs with two members who have food sensitivities. All around a great neighborhood place for good food and drinks!

My family & friends gathered here last night for my daughter’s graduation party there was about 30 of us and it was a lovely time! The hostess, bartender and wait staff were great and accommodating! Thank you for making my daughters party so wonderful! Highly recommended!

My sister-in-law had her baby shower here a couple of days ago. The restaurant is very warm and inviting. We had the place to ourselves; our party was located upstairs in that cute area. Overall, the place was wonderful: 5/5! I deducted one star due to slow to start (the bathroom didn't get cleaned and stocked until minutes before the official start time) and towards the end, the wait staff stopped circulating (we needed more coffee creamer and water refilled). The brunch smorgasbord was excellent! The staff was very pleasant when we interacted. Very beautiful venue for a cold and rainy day.
