"Bay
Area Top 50 Restaurant"
San
Francisco Examiner
"Even
"real men" may not be able to finish off the "oversized and undercharged
portions"
of "basic Italian food" at this Downtown "landmark" " - Zagat Survey
"Very
Retro, Very Fine" - Herb Caen
"Once
you've eaten one of Original Joe's famous three-quarter-pound hamburger steaks
gently formed from coarsely ground, house-butchered beef, coated in chopped onions
and cooked medium rare on the griddle, you'll brave the haute Tenderloin neighborhood
to eat here. I do twice a year, when my 83-year-old father-in-law comes to town.
We're never disappointed." - Patricia Unterman SF Examiner from top
50 Bay Area Restaurants
"Everything
about Joe's is substantial, traditional, cool and welcoming to people who don't
make most opening nights on the celebrity chef circuit"
