https://www.joesitalianrestaurantandbar.com/
(949) 218-8860
The last of Robert's eatery picks is Joe’s. This restaurant is one of the only places in Orange County to serve traditional Italian food. Your tastebuds will be transported straight to Italy with recipes that have been crafted over many years. The exterior of Joe’s is impressively modern with round designs and strategic lighting. The interior has an entirely different feel than the exterior. The interior is a cliche of a Californian restaurant in the best way possible. There is wooden seating and a granite bar that feels very homey. You can find Joe’s in Ladera Ranch, California.
