Let's get straight to the point: the famous lobster spaghetti here is above average & definitely not worth the wait. At an eye-watering price tag of $71++, it's asking to be judged against the best pastas in the world & that's what I'm judging it by.

First, you only get half a lobster. That's not a lot meat but they do somewhat make it up with the generous amount of spaghetti. The noodles themselves are good, but they are let down by the sauce, which is too salty. The lobster is supposed to be the star of the show but you don't taste any of it in the sauce. Half a lobster is also not proportionate to the amount of spaghetti so it doesn't feel like a satisfying meal.

Drinks here are good creative though, so I would recommend them. I got a peach mock tail & it's rare to find mocktails that have more complexity than juice.

This is a Montreal institution & it's worth going just to check out the place, but manage your expectations if you get the lobster spaghetti.

Had an absolutely delicious meal at Joe Beef! The duck was incredible - so flavorful & tender. I'm already looking forward to coming back for another piece. Highly recommend! 🦆🍷

We came to the Canadian Grand Prix & was recommended Joe Beef for dinner & it did not disappoint. We had to reserve about a month in advance for a party of two but it lived up to the hype. The food was incredible, service was top notch & we had a great time. Pictured is the lobster spaghetti which was 100% worth the price, glazed carrots, & filet mignon. I forget the name of the dessert but it was delicious. Will definitely come again!

Great food overall, but I think it has lost some of its greatness. I recall how difficult it was to get a reservation here 10 years ago. Yes, it is still tough to get the prime reservation time. We were able to snag last-minute reservations for 9:30 p.m.

The restaurant was packed! Clearly, it continues to be a popular spot. Our server was friendly, consistent with everyone's observation that outstanding service is its key strength!

The dishes that we had were all decent, but nothing out of this world. The bone marrow had an interesting spin, but the chawanmushi (Japanese steamed egg) became the main ingredient for the dish, rather than tasting much of the bone marrow & uni.

The server recommended the duck, which happens to be our pick as well. But the meat wasn't as tender as I'd like. The side dish- carrots, turned out to be my favorite dish for the night.

J'ai mangé au Joe Beef hier soir avec des amis. Nous nous sommes laissés porter & impressionner par notre serveur qui a choisi les plats pour nous à notre demande.
Le flétan dans un beurre blanc IS TO DIE FOR. La cuisson était impeccable (croustillant sur le dessus.. tendre & moelleux à l'intérieur. )
Le filet de boeuf & la sauce, servi avez des asperges du Québec .. une merveille. Je recommande chaleureusement.
Nourriture, service & ambiance 5 étoiles!
Merci à toute l'équipe.
