Lisa Markwell - 7/10

Sunday, September 11, 2011 - My main course, spiced slow-braised lamb with rainbow chard and chickpeas, is a disappointment (too pappy a texture and unappealing in a barrel formation)...Claire's thrilled with monkfish, cauliflower, pistachio, mint and preserved lemon cous cous, declaring it one of the finest balances of flavours and textures she's eaten in years. A fantabulous cherry variety pack of clafoutis, cherry and chocolate rice pudding and cherry ice-cream is pretty and toothsome and just right for sharing. Joe's deserves to be for ladies who breakfast, lunch and dinner. It is delicious, pretty to look at and satisfying without heft.

Fay Maschler - 3/5

Thursday, July 21, 2011 - A lack of cooking precision is more easily forgiven when the meal price is 15/17 pounds for two/three courses as can be enjoyed at lunchtime at Joe's. It is the meal that accounts for the three-star rating of this review. The winner was he who started with an incredibly subtle soup of early Cornish potatoes with cavolo nero and lemon oil, followed by char-grilled glistening sardines with panzanella salad and completed with apricot fool. Thai-style squid salad with buckwheat noodles woven in preceding pasta rags (aka maltagliati) served with wide ribbons of courgettes, chilli and lemon was not quite so diverting or well balanced but nevertheless, speaking as a lady, a good lunch.

Fully recommended. Dined on their fixed price and themed menu of the day which was full of imagination and great tastes. The veal on the bone was succulent. Service was tip top but not over the top. We will definitely make this our local restaurant.

Very good food, good price, good service. Good location in South Kensington, good vibe and very good food, decently priced. Will recommend any time. If you happen to be in the neighbourhood, don't miss your opportunity to have a nice meal, in a nice place in a nice location.
