Joey’s Italian Grill & Bar

Wow! That is what describes this place! This was one of the most delicious places I have ever eaten at. Our waitress was equally as grand. The lasagna was spot on perfect. Get the cheese bread!!! If you get anything get that. I will be back ASAP.

Excellent Joey’s Brooklyn Pasta!
And of course the Asagio Cheese Bread starter is the best.
$ 10 Corkage fee, but worth it for my home made Cabernet.

Absolutely phenomenal food, but the service provided is above reproach. The wait staff is extremely friendly and prompt with everything from the moment you sit down to the moment you leave. They are more than happy to explain the menu items to you if any questions arise, and your water will never go empty. Great music. Quaint location and a hidden gem in Niceville.

I discovered Joey’s while visiting family last week. The food, staff and atmosphere is great. I got the pasta alfredo with chicken and loved it. They also have a small, but good selection of beer.
If you’re in Niceville, FL don’t forget Joey’s.

Amazing food, good music on (Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Ray Charles) Little understaffed but they are hiring to help fix that. Great beer on tap. Had the 3 little pigs pizza and they do not skimp on the meat. Great little place

Such a pleasant surprise. Stumbled upon this gem after a long day. Great beer selection. The eggplant sliders were so good — the bread was nothing special but the eggplant, cheese, basil, tomatoes, and balsamic together was perfect! We tried the pepperoni pizza and it was delicious! We will be back for the roasted garlic and the margherita pizzas for lunch for sure. And to top it all off the service was on point. Overall: excellent

LOVE THE PIZZA HERE! it is by far what i remember from living in NYC/​And Rhode Island. This place is awesome and i love it, second to none in the pizza department

Really tasteful, and the pizza is legit! You must give Joey’s a try. You don’t stay in business long in Niceville unless you’ve got the goods, and this restaurant/​bar (bar is separated and very spacious) has what it takes from an authentic Italian Restaurant!

Our 1^st visit to Joey’s and it was awesome! We wine around 530pm and by the time we left the place had no seats! The waitress was awesome and the pizza was phenomenal. It’s our new favorite! Love that it’s so close!

This was a first time for us. We walked in and we were the second table in the room. But our server was so inviting and the food omg!!! wr got the kids pizza which was even brick oven! And super cheesy! The manicotti was melt in your mouth and my husband got a meat pasta that had enough spice to make the cold beer go down fast ;) all in all this is our new pizza /​Italian joint… just don’t tell my mom (she’s Italian) :)

The staff are all friendly and nice. Food is okay. We were so confused that we ordered veal but the meat didn’t taste like veal but more like chicken. We asked for check and noticed it’s actually chicken. Beside this everything is fine.

This was my first time here since they moved from the Joey Tomato’s store down the road. The Rueben sandwich was very good when I was there for lunch. The food took a while to come out so that could be a concern if you are in a hurry. The service was friendly and attentive. The menu looks to be expanded and I look forward to trying more menu items.

I’ve been going to Joeys for 10+ years (orginally Joey Tomatoes) and have yet to have a bad experience. I always get the Cuban (love the chips) for lunch and can’t go wrong with the lasagna for dinner. Favorite restaurant in Niceville! Support local business.

Stopped in here for dinner on a Tuesday night. It’s located in a quite strip mall; I’ve passed it a hundred times.
I ordered the nights special of fried grouper. It was served in red sauce, bread, and thin spaghetti noodles. Very good! The portion was big enough to take a portion home.
The décor is a little outdated, but I’ve heard that the newly renovated bar area is drawing a crowd. I would come back here to eat.

Had a great experience! Went there last Friday night. Pizza and wine were very good. Wait staff was great and pricing reasonable. There was a terrific band playing. Fun evening and yummy food. We will be back!

Very disappointed. Normally the go to place in Niceville, but tonight we waited for over an hour and our pizza was nowhere to be seen. To add insult to injury the refill on drinks was poke too.

I’ll preface this by stating that I’ve only visited the bar side of Joeys. It’s a small bar with a few tables and a couch. It’s clean and the bartender has a great attitude. Seems to be the same guy each time. The beer selection isn’t great but they have a few microbrews that r decent. They often have a decent band that suites older crowds. Nice place

Feel like this is a great candidate for Kitchen Nightmares. At the same time, should go forward and adopt the last locations standards. It’s a shame because I know that place has potential!!!
Also, this is a low 3 star rating 3.2

Really good. Attentive staff, attentive managers. The sauce on the pasta was amazing. Great place for a family dinner

I’ve been to Joey’s when it was located across the street for lunch, but never had the opportunity to eat dinner. So my daughter and I thought we would try it out for dinner only to find that the dinner was way below par. On arrival we were not greeted by anyone and stood for 5 minutes just looking around as we noticed just a few dinners and ample table space. While we waited we did see that the restaurant was much cleaner than the previous tenants and hoped the food was too.
The waitress was friendly however when we asked her about a particular pasta that we were unfamiliar, she had to ask someone else. Also, when I asked for a glass of house Chianti, she came back 5 minutes later and said they didn’t have any and could I choose another type of wine. Who ever heard of an Italian Restaurant not having Chianti? I guess the person who orders the stock was behind the counter drinking that Chianti. Additionally, the wait staff was a little confusing for us because one person would bring you something, and when you asked them for water, or something else they would say we’ll tell your waitress. You would then watch your waitress catering to other tables as you watched the person you asked go hang out back at the kitchen. Wouldn’t it had been easier for that person to just get you some water?
Now let’s get to the food. My daughter ordered the Pasta and Meatball and said it was just tasteless like it had just been sitting around. I asked my waitress for something that had a lot of sauce and she said that the Pasta del Mar was a soupy dish with linguine and seafood. I love the Mediterrano at TradeWinds so I thought this may be something similar. She said she preferred the white wine sauce over the red and I took her suggestion. Well, I forgot that I was talking to a young waitress that probably didn’t have too much experience and probably thought chicken noodle soup was out of this world. Because when I received the Pasta del Mar it tasted just like chicken noodle soup with over cooked clams, mussels, and shrimp. If you ever have over cooked shellfish you know they are chewing and don’t have any flavor. And I guess the cook because he’s not a chef was probably using a chicken stock instead of fish stock.
Hopefully I caught them on a bad day because we like to patronize local places, but we’ll probably go to another restaurant for real italian food.
