Joe's of Avenue U

It's definitely one of the best places left for Sicilian food. The food here is super delicious, preserving the original flavors, style, and taste of its origin. Service is friendly and on point . The rice ball special is everything. Iykyk panel is severed here, and it's done perfectly. I've been enjoying this place since I'm a kid. Stop by and treat yourself before it's gone .

Awesome spot. I ordered calamari, pane panelle, and a chicken parm hero. It was delicious. They truly carry the tastes and recipes used in Palermo. I’ve had a few of the “Sicilian” spots in NYC and they’re at the top. The staff is actually Sicilian, and even the menu is in Sicilian. This is a proper spot to go if you’re missing a taste of home. 10/10 recommend.

The restaurant is located in the Gravesend section of Brooklyn. They prepare Italian cuisine. They have tables for dining-in and servers. I ordered a rice ball. It was small and not much larger than a mini-rice ball. The filet of fish was flounder with some tomato on the top. It included a choice of several vegetables. I chose the fried cauliflower. The food was average in taste and flavor. My order totalled approximately $30 and was higher than similar food in other restaurants.

Finally made it to Joe's for lunch... We ordered the octopus salad.. Fried calamari.. baked clams.. panelle and seafood linguini.. all items were fresh and delicious. Service perhaps could've been quicker but I didn't care.. well worth the trip here. Old school joint in the italian holdout of Ave U.

Dropped by this place to grab a bite before work and found it to be a really nice spot for some good Italian standards. I've since visited a few times and enjoyed items such as stuffed artichoke, chicken parmigiana sandwich, arancini, and more. Definitely a reliable place for a hearty meal and friendly service.
