    This was my first time going to Josephine. The ambience was very good as well as the food. Our server, Jay C, was excellent, and I thoroughly enjoyed my time. His positive energy and knowledge of the menu contributed to an outstanding dining experience. I was celebrating a special occasion, and he pulled out all the stops to make it memorable. I will definitely be back.

    Our server Destiny was very professional, patient and knowledgeable of the menu. She gave us lots of recommendations which was great! The food was very good! Loved the cornbread. We had a window seat with view of the harbor, however it was cloudy so weren’t able to enjoy the view totally.

    This was the perfect choice for our Valentine's Day engagement. We were split between the Family Style southern menu and the Valentine's Day menu. Both looked good but the southern style gave the best taste of what Succotash is all about. Our server Eric made it an amazing experience! He brought us a special dessert and really helped make it a special occasion. We will always remember our special day and the family style meal at Succotash

    There is a lot of great choices on the menu. The atmosphere of the restaurant was quiet (mostly because we dined on a holiday, but I am certain if we dined on a normal day it would’ve been lively and energetic). Our server was wonderful, and the food was great. The pizzas are great to share among 2 people as they are individual pizzas with 6 sizeable slices. The pastas a generous portion and fit the price. They do add gratuity (tip) to the bill & leave you the option to add more. Overall the experience was wonderful and I would recommend and go again.
