Papa Joe’s

Absolutely love this friendly, family-​run restaurant, especially since the recent reno. The atmosphere is casual/​comfy and very welcoming. I try to have dinner here every time I go to PEI.
The menu is diverse and there is something for everyone including the kiddies — from fresh seafood, salads, burgers and steaks.
The owners are Lebanese and their cook is east Indian so you can’t go wrong ordering anything with a Middle eastern flare. The kafta and rice is so tasty, but my favourite time to go here is on curry Wednesdays (or maybe it’s Tuesday — be sure to check! The chicken korma is to die for!)
Check it out — you’ll love it!

Excelent home made food, I had the Turkey and Vegetables soup … could be better but it was ok! The the roast por beef … what can I say … like I made in home … very tender, very tasty. I’ll return again for sure in that cold days.

Exactly what I desired. Traditional Canadiana fare as well as unique salads and curries.
Service was terrific.

Lobster burger was really good. It’s more like lobster salad on a hamburger bun. Comes with Cole slaw, potato and side salad. Filled us up for lunch.

Great value and outstanding service. Staff took time to answer all our questions about the area. Food was fresh, and menu had good variety. It was very clean and we’ll visited locally.

Great family restaurant. Consistently great food .
Many dedicated customers returning again and again .
John always is at the counter with a great smile and a little conversation for all.

This is a good family restaurant serving what we call home cooking. I like the liver and onions — who serves that these days?
Meat and potatoes cooked very well. There are people who eat here several nights a week. The food is good, regular cooking although they are bragging about a new chef.
Someone wrote Arabic menu — it’s Lebanese and they cook it was well but there are better Lebanese restaurants in Charlottetown.
It’s all good as they say.
This restaurant is wheelchair accessible (didn’t check the washrooms).

Came here for dinner after a long day at the beach. I loved that they use local ingredients in many of their dishes. I ordered the three dip appetizer, which consisted of pita bread, veggies, and salsa, sour cream, and hummus. The salsa and hummus were both fantastic. As a main course, I had the maple walnut salmon, which was amazing. It came with brown rice and some local veggies that were cooked just right — with a bit of bite. Our waitress was fantastic. This was the only place on Prince Edward Island where my water glass was refilled! The only drawback was when we went to pay our check. We were happy with our food and were in a good mood, but the lady who rang us up (probably one of the owners) had a major attitude. I have no idea what her problem was — we didn’t make a mess, we hadn’t made special requests, we were just paying our bill — she was just curt and rude. It ruined the meal for us. I hope our waitress got to keep the entire tip and didn’t have to share it with that douche-​y lady. If it hadn’t been for her, we would have come back to this place.

My family and I have been going to this place now for about 3 years. The service is great and the food is fantastic. They almost always have a local menu that uses all ingredients from the surrounding farms and fisheries. The owners also have a middle eastern backgound– so if you are into arabic food (whoch I totally am) Get the Arabic platter. The cabbage roll is one of the best I have ever had.

Love their curry Wednesday special!
I was looking for a change this evening while working in Charlottetown this week, and spotted this «family restaurant» with a beef special advertised, so gave it a try.
I was easily side-​tracked into their Curry medley, which is a special every wed. (I have a weakness for Curry dishes for some reason)
It was awesome! I nice combination of east indian dishes all in one. Apparently their cook is east indian so has introduced it to the restaurant.
At the time I was there (6pm) most of the customers seemed to be silver haired, but there were a few young ones mixed in.
