Cozy atmosphere for the space given. Food was delicious and came out on time in sequence. We ordered the salmon entrée and the scallops entrée. Good crowd at 6:30, we made a reservation and our table was ready. Cocktails were good and the shrimp appetizer was tasty. The bread pudding dessert was heavenly. The wait staff was nice friendly from making the reservation to our waitress.

Wow! Joy Bistro was AWESOME! Gary & Melissa (Joy) did a wonderful job with our large party of 40 people for my sons’s rehearsal dinner last weekend! The food was amazing…& the service was just as good! We were so pleased with everything & I highly recommend Joy Bistro… you could place this restaurant in any major city & it would shine! Thanks for a great event guys… you’re the best!!

Joy Bistro was a wonderful atmosphere for our anniversary dinner. The service and food were top notch. They have great Covid protocols in place that made me feel comfortable and safe. Would definitely visit again if we are back in the area. We had the fire cracker shrimp for an appetizer and the salmon as an entree.

What a great little place in Boone. The only place that matches overall quality is the Gamekeeper. Joy is very expensive though so we don’t go here often. It is however, more convenient than the Gamekeeper.

For the price, the food wasn’t what I expected it to be. I enjoyed the appetizers of Brie puffs and bread more than I did my meal or dessert. My champagne was served in a weird glass instead of a champagne flute, and the bread pudding was basically just chocolate chip pancakes. Definitely not worth the $150 tab but it was decent.

We had a reservation at 6:30 and we arrived around 6:25. There was a table ready for us as soon as we walked in the door! We got seated and we were greeted by our server, Tyler. We ordered cocktails and an appetizer and they came out promptly. We had an inconvenience with the entrees because the restaurant was out of the filet mignon but had New York strip instead. Needless to say, the New York strip was amazing along with the rest of sides. We had a great experience and our sever, Tyler, was amazing. Highly recommend this restaurant and we will be back!

Wow! I am so glad I found this place. Lovely space and a fantastic meal. The mussels were delicious! The warm mushroom salad was one of the best salads I have ever had. Scallops, pork chop, burger at our table. Everything was perfect. The fried smashed fingerling potatoes that came with the burger – soooooo good. I cannot wait to go back.

I found this place searching for a place to do brunch while we were visiting Boone. Brunch was amazing! The braised short ribs and potatoes is one of my top 5 dishes ever. We were so pleased with the place that we went back for dinner service the Friday before we left. It was equally amazing and the dessert was off the charts ( We had the Creme Brulee and the Mocha ice cream). I would highly recommend Joy to anyone looking for an outstanding meal. I can’t wait until we move to Boone so that we can enjoy this restaurant regularly.
