Description

We love a good hush puppy, and this is the place that has them. Fortunately, they go great with everything on the menu at this place known as much for its "Free Crab Tomorrow" sign out front as for its yummy seafood treats. Try the bucket of king crab, served with two potatoes and a hunk of corn. Also good: the coconut prawns with a side of white fish, beer-battered and tasty with tangy tartar sauce. Joe's knows how to make a Po-Boy, too-loads of fresh shrimp and a spicy sauce over fresh, oven-baked bread. The onion rings here are light and crispy and beer-battered, which makes them go great with any of the on-draft beers at Joe's cozy bar.
