    If you like to dance and drink this is the place to be! If you don't like to get LIT this isn't the place to be!

    If I could rate this establishment no stars; this would be the place. The service was no existence as in they did not even attempt to serve us. What a total waste of time, douchbag bartender with the earrings on both ears and arm tattoos just kept smirking and staring. We were already carded at the door so ID's were not an issue. He took his sweet ass time greeting his little friends and completely ignored us (paying patrons). I know he saw us because there was direct eye contact. That other ambiguous bartender as well, saw us and pretended like we were not there and continued to ignore us. There were also other bartenders just standing around at the bar and none of them spoke or acknowledged us. I honestly think they were discriminating us. We were the only Asian people there.

    They have one job to do, it should not matter what anyone is, they are there to perform a service, but apparently these bartenders feel like they can pick and choose whom to serve or in my case not to serve. I guess it makes them feel better about themselves to treat others like crap. They could have been on a power trip and/or are racist; probably all of the above. Avoid this place. Why would you want to support a business that has a blatant disregard for human decency? That is despicable.

    Taco Tuesdays Taco Tuesday's Taco Tuesday!!! Damn the tacos are amazing. There are 4 types of tacos and they are all freaking delicious. I believe the price is a special price but don't really know since I'm writing this review from the bar eating my tacos and drinking my Jack and Coke. Yummy!

    I met my girlfriends for a drink and appetizers here. I had a margarita, they had beers. My margarita was good.
    We ordered cheese fries and wings to share.
    The cheese fries were good. Nothing special.
    The wings were also good, nothing special.
    These are 3 things I can order anywhere else and they would probably taste the same so nothing stood out to me that would make me return here.
    Service was ok.

    Went to Joseph's last night and it wasn't worth it at all. I had a very simple order and already knew what I wanted. I waited 25 minutes for a plate when they was a total of like 7 customers (including myself) inside the  restaurant . So I ordered my stuff and noticed her standing by the windows where the orders go from the cooks to the waiters but while the food was on that window she was standing at the other window watching the game. It was a good 3 minutes of just standing there until she finally noticed it was there, grabbed it and brought it to me. Then when I had the bill ready, it was a total of $44 and I had $45 in cash (of course I had some extra for tip money after I paid) and when she walked away giving me time to pay I spent a good 5 minutes watching her talk to one of the bartenders hoping to catch her eye so I can pay for my bill. When she finally noticed, she took it and set it aside where they have the cash register and moved on.At that point, I was mad. It's a dollar change so how long is that going to take? I finally walked up to her and asked for my cash back. She slipped the $1 out of another bill and handed it to me. Drinks and food are good however the wait for some proper service is ridiculous. Unfortunately, this isn't the first time the service has not been adequate. I come here at least twice a month and rarely ask for food specifically because of the service. Usually I'm a very generous tipper but this service did not deserve a tip at all. Food and drinks are great however, if you order food then be prepared to wait.
