Dining Out: Joe's American Grill

It's Wednesday night, you just got out of your late class, and you're starving. You are relieved that it's all over with, but your stomach is still rumbling. You walk past Chartwells and nothing appeals to you. Instead of settling for something on campus, try something new-go out to dinner.
Fairfield has its fair share of restaurants, but you want to go somewhere that's close and will satisfy your taste buds after a long week's worth of work. So what'll it be? Italian, Mexican, diner?
How about trying something different for a change. Drive that extra 10 minutes and try out Joe's American Bar and Grill.
I've been going to Joe's for years now, since I have one close to my town in New Jersey. I was ecstatic to find that there was one located in Fairfield, on 750 Post Road. Although it may be a little further than your usual Merritt Canteen or Red Lobster, it is definitely worth the drive.
Being from Jersey, I personally feel that we have the best food there is. New Yorkers feel the same, especially those from Long Island that rave about their "Long Island Pizza" and those from Brooklyn that swear they have the best bagels on earth.
So instead of going for pizza and leaving with the phrase "It's not as good as the pizza from home" try out Joe's American Bar and Grill, and from my experience, I know you will leave satisfied.
Sacred Heart students seem to agree.
"As a Long Islander I will always favor our pizza and bagels," said sophomore Michele Borriello. "But when it comes to Joe's I must hand it to them, their food is delicious."
What's more, the overall atmosphere of Joe's is very warm and friendly.
"They have a great wait staff. I take my mom there every time," said junior Stephanie Merabet. "They are so friendly and helpful. Not to mention, they have fabulous mashed potatoes!"
So what kind of food is at Joe's? They have American cuisine and serve lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch. Their menu includes soups, salads, sandwiches, grilled pizzas, steak, chicken, seafood, and, most importantly, burgers. Joe's is famous for its burgers, as they like to say on their menu.
