Hands down the best meal I've had in New Orleans. Had the Eggplant Napoleon...and I loved it. My wife had chicken tenders and she loved those. She said they were way better than the overcooked chicken sandwich she got at the wannabe fancy seafood place further down Magazine St. (I'll leave it nameless). The service was the best I've experienced...pretty much anywhere. I couldn't get a mint julip, but I ordered another mixed drink that wasn't on the menu, and you delivered...spot on. Thank you for an excellent dining experience for my family. You rock.
The all you can eat fried catfish is amazing! The local beers are great! Our server with the British accent was super helpful and gave us lots of recommendations for things to do while in town. By far the best meal we have had since being in town. The onion rings were also pretty amazing.
Nice little place on Magazine Street with good sandwiches and traditional New Orleans fare. I had the half po boy and my friend had the crawfish boil. Service was really friendly. Check out Joey K’s when in the Garden District.

just a great spot to stop by any day of the week. prefer lunch vs dinner. friendly service and feel good food makes this spot terrific. big salads and great rings. red beans on mondays and a very local and regulars crowd. a must for tourists looking to rest their feet after magazine shopping. menu is large and mostly very good and the beer is cold. cant complain roll on garth,
Once I hit the hotel, I began my trek toward the lowering garden district which is characterized by small shops and some of the hottest restaurants in NOLA. Among these eateries lie 4 triple Ds. My first stop was Joey K's, an American restaurant with a cajun/creole flare and daily specials ranging from oven roasted turkey to ham hocks with lima beans. I was surprised how busy it was given the time of day. I sat at the bar and was greeted by a friendly waitress who promptly served me a frozen goblet of Abita. Afterwards, I chatted with the waiter and, given I had just landed, decided to go authentic with the eggplant napoleon appetizer ( I was drawn to the crawfish cream sauce) and rice and beans with smoked sausage. He chuckled a bit and suggested I stick with a side of the rice and beans since the appetizer was "big". It was a good call. The eggplant was huge and ridiculously delicious. It was served piping hot and the sauce was the star. The rice and beans were bona fide belly friendly and I was quite happy I didn't opt for the full portion.
In the end, Joey K's has a fun vibe, good service and great food whether you are looking for comfort food or authentic southern cooking.
Recently renovated. Awesome white beans with pork chop and cornbread .Lively atmosphere and always busy.. Charming local Magazine Street eatery! Check it out guys! You won't be disappointed .
Large shrimp on the fried platter and the fried green tomatoes with grilled shrimp are TOP of the menu. A bit pricey for lunch, but I got over it when the food came. If you're checking out shops down Magazine street, Joey K's makes sense! Busy as a one armed paper hanger, still reasonably good service. This place has local charm ALL over it. Well worth the trip out of the Quarter!
I was told by a friend that this was a good restaurant. However, the experience that I had him on Thursday night was simply amazing. I ordered meatloaf & mashed potatoes. It was heavenly BUT The meatloaf came with
mac & cheese & green beans, and I entered the pearly gates with each taste of my mac & cheese. The green beans were little spicy. The final bit of heaven that night was my Apple cobbler Al la mode. Truly I recommend this restaurant with my highest commendations. It is now my favorite restaurant when I'm in the mood for home cooking.
Delicious food!. Our family ate here during a visit to New Orleans. The food was delicious and the staff were all very friendly. We would definitely eat here again.
A long walk.... We stopped and asked some locals walking where the best place to go eat was. They recommended Joey K's. So we walked about 1.5 miles to get there. The place is on the corner of 7th and Magazine. It's a cozy little place. The service could've been a little better. They were busy, had 3-4 waitresses and while they were very nice, it just took longer than usual to get refills or place an order and what not. However!! We got the Eggplant Napoleon as an app. It was awesome! Entrees were the Magazine pasta which was also very good! And the stuffed bell pepper; not as impressed. Finished with the blackberry cobbler that was decent enough, however my momma's is better. But we cleaned the dish so not so shabby. Would still return to eat here. Great place!
Best catfish I have ever eaten and the prices are incredibly reasonable. $13 dollars for all you can eat catfish that tastes this good should be a crime!
Pretty good food, not as fabulous as we expected.. Went on GUY FIERE'S recommendation...Our service was good, they were sweet to cook my brown rice pasta for the famous Magazine Pasta dish which was good, but very rich and quite greasy. My husband ate the fried green tomatoes and they were amazing! The best I have ever tasted! My kid split the Chicken Fried steak which came with green beans and homemade mac and cheese and they LOVED it! All in all a good experience but with all restaurants to choose from in NOLA, doubt we will return.
I’d say this one is more 4.5 stars because of the service (or lack of). The food is great and is good value for the portions you get. It could just be the seating location we were given by the staircase, but our server took a very long time to come get our order and we had to ask someone to find him to get our check. It was a very souring experience when we really enjoyed the food. If we come back to the area we might give it another try.

I was blessed to be told by a Local about this place. I was wandering around and this nice man gave me some places to go eat and this was top on his list!! I just wish I would have met him sooner it was my last full day. What a charming place and the food was OUTSTANDING!! I wish i was sitting in the front room I love all of the signs. we were taken into the 2nd dining area and it was just another place to eat. Definitely sit in the front room if you get the opportunity ;)
On our visit to Magazine St. we passed by Joey K’s and decided to split an appetizer (the seafood and sausage gumbo) which was delicious. We sat at the bar and I had their Pimm’s Cup which was great too. The servers were friendly and attentive and overall the place had a casual laid back atmosphere. We’re glad we passed by and would definitely stop in again the next time we’re in the area.
Really enjoyed our first meal in NOLA and this is where we ate. Great reputation and it didn't disappoint. The place was very busy on a Tuesday lunch with a mix of "us tourists", lol, and many locals.
Service was excellent. Friendly, confident, fast and great menu knowledge. Comes from great training, so kudos to management and/or ownership.
Fried Green Tomatoes were perfect. The Jambalaya was a tad dry but loaded with meat and was EXTREMELY tasty. My wife's salad with Blackened Shrimp was fabulous and PACKED with local Shrimp.
Very reasonably priced and, again, fabulous young lady server.
We WILL return the next rime we are in NOLA.
4.5 stars.
Recommended by our tour bus driver. Jambalaya and red beans were good (and good for gluten sensitive).
Sit outside for people-watching if you are able.
Like everything about this place, food we ordered were tasty (Creole jambalaya, Po boy (fried shrimp)), gumbo, fried catfish). Our server was really friendly. Recommended!!
The wait was short. The host was awesome. Once seated, our server was quick to get our drinks and food. I had the meatloaf, and all I can say is,"My mama has a run for her money." Love it
Red beans and rice, Crab and corn bisque and fried green tomatoes were so incredible. So taaty! Our waitress Lindsay was awesome and answered all our questions
All in all a great experience!
The food, service and atmosphere are great! The eggplant napoleon was phenomenal. Gotta have some bread pudding for desert. Will definitely be back!!
Food was good.
Lamb shank was tasty but too salty for my taste, didn't enjoy the canned green beans.
Fried green tomatoes was really delicious, but the portion was petite ( 4 slices of tomatos).
Pasta was not drain properly, full of water at the bottom. Not enough sauce to cover all the pasta. Just like the toasts, not enough butter to cover the toasts.
