What Judyl Lindemann likes about Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House:
So nice place! I went to the restaurant by myself. I can't speak English very well, but they were so friendly and sweetly. Thanks you for helping me and you guys make my day! View all feedback. What Donny Trantow doesn't like about Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House:
Can’t believe they serve 2 day old fresh baby oysters. No meat. So small that I can’t see anything but 1mm thinnest of membrane in the shell. Used to go every week for their oysters and they are normal size but not this time. The service and waiters are great though. View all feedback.
