About Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab
The Chicago branch of the Miami Beach original sits on Grand Avenue at the Shops at North Bridge and keeps the formula intact: chilled Florida stone crab claws with the house mustard sauce, crab bisque, crab cakes, Dover sole, a grilled seafood platter and wet- and dry-aged USDA Prime steaks. Classics carried over from Miami include fried chicken, grilled tomatoes and Jennie's mashed potatoes, and key lime pie is the dessert most tables order. The dining room is large and traditional, with dark beams, wrought-iron chandeliers and palm-lined murals, and it runs at a steady clip from lunch at 11:30 AM until 9:30 or 10 PM, seven days a week. Saturday is the busiest day, followed by Friday and Sunday, and valet parking is on hand. With a 4.8 rating from 5,982 Google reviews, few downtown restaurants are more consistently liked; the occasional note is that tables beside service stations feel short on privacy.
