We visited for a late lunch. We both had the salad special of the day and added seared salmon. It was delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly. Andrea, our waitress was wonderful - the perfect combination of professional and friendly. Josie’s Table is a great go-to spot for a nice meal!

We had a good time with a party of 4. We made a reservation and were seated promptly. The chips, salsa and guacamole was very good, our entrees were all quite tasty and had good portion sizes (we all boxed up leftovers). The cocktails were very good and the service was polite and professional. The ambiance was a little modern and not typical for a Mexican restaurant and the noise level (on a busy Saturday night) wasn’t conducive to a lot of conversation.
