We just returned from celebrating our 30th Wedding Anniversary with a midweek dinner at Joey's Southcenter. The vibe was upbeat and lively but not chaotic or overwhelming. We were offered a complimentary beverage as we arrived and quickly brought to our seats. Soon, the server took our order and brought out the food. It was delicious! What really impressed us was how beautifully presented it was. Joey's takes pride in their offerings. We decided not to order dessert, but our server brought spoons, a complimentary anniversary cake, and a handwritten card. It was classy, delicious, and looked great. Color us super impressed!
