I was looking forward to finally trying Joe's Stone Crab. I have seen on it TV shows, heard great things from others who have been there, and thought I was going to be in for a treat. Unfortunately I was sadly mistaken. I went with the big crab legs and we had the creamed spinach, pan roasted sweet corn, mashed potatoes, lyonnaise with some oysters on the half shell. The oysters and sides were good and so was the wine (rioja) but the stone crab was a flop. Now maybe it was because they weren't in season and if that was the case I will research and try them again when they are in season. What will make me seek out a different restaurant to try them in was the service. We had two tables with a total of 15 people. For the two tables we were given one waitress who was VERY slow. Forget about the fact it took forever for us to get a drink order in, it took even longer for the drinks to finally arrive. Overall it was a disappointing experience at what should have been an excellent restaurant. My company is in Vegas twice a year and I was hoping this would be a restaurant that would be on our annual list, but it was so bad we skipped dessert and had cigars and after dinner drinks somewhere else instead.
