Joe's Inn the Fan

Brent Klich 2 months ago

I've loved Joe's Inn since the early '90s, but for some reason I hadn't been back in almost a decade with all the new restaurants emerging in Richmond. Last Saturday, I finally made plans to visit again, and I was reminded why this place has been a Richmond favorite for decades. The restaurant is full of charm, with a great atmosphere, a lively bar, friendly staff, and outstanding food. I ordered my favorite—baked spaghetti, extra toasted and well done—and it was every bit as good as I remembered. If you're looking for a classic Richmond dining experience, I highly recommend Joe's Inn in The Fan on North Shields Avenue. If you can, sit on the original side of the restaurant for the full experience!

We go to Joe's every Wednesday night, and we call it "going to our friend's house for dinner." All the staff are so sweet and the food is always scrumptious. Cheers!

This is a cute family-owned restaurant which seems to have been around for a while. It is a restaurant / bar next door. They specialize in spaghetti and baked spaghetti as well as many other Italian options. The baked spaghetti can be ordered with your choice of meat and either meat sauce or marinara. If you get the loaded big spaghetti it comes with all the different meat options. It is very big and the flavor is pretty good. The spaghetti comes with a salad and soft bread. Service is excellent here. We came back and had the gyro sandwich which was not that big in portion but good in flavor. The steak and eggs it's a pretty good plate. The home fries are seasoned perfectly and crunchy on the outside and delicious. Peanut butter pie is a great dessert option. The margarita as well as the espresso martini is very good here.
