Claim ListingGreat Place, even better food. With the brick interior and the uplighting from the DJ's, we didn't need to decorate, which is nice and saves some cash. The bartenders were friendly and fast, service was excellent. Good communication leading up to the wedding, sometimes took a day or so to respond, but that is acceptable unless you are a major bridezilla. Everyone had a great time and couldn't stop talking about the food (and they still talk about the food). Think about that, how many times have you gone to a wedding and remembered the food? Probably never. They maintained a comfortable temp in the building, which isn't always easy on a 90 degree day. The only downside is parking, but that is going to be the case anywhere downtown Milwaukee, There is a parking structure across the street however, I think it was $8 for the night per car. A Lot of hotels within walking distance as well.
Beautiful beautiful beautiful!!! I am STILL getting comments on how much people liked our wedding reception! The food was delicious, the waitstaff fantastic! Don't get me started on the atmosphere, it was so perfect for us!! I would recommend this place to anyone for any occasion. Jaime Stamm was WONDERFUL to work with!! We actually had another place in mind for our first pick, but the banquet managers were kinda iffy, and seemed to not really know what the other was doing. I am SO SO SO glad that we ended up not going with our first choice and getting the room at Joey's instead!! Our wedding definitely would have not been as fun as it was at Joey's!!
For all the food that we got, the price was DEFINITELY worth it, and compared to other places in the city, we got a great deal for a beautiful wedding.
The one thing I worried about when we first reserved and had our table layout drawn up, was that the dance floor and space in the room was kinda small, but it was definitely perfect for us. We were at maximum (or about at 220) for the room, and it was not cramped at all!
Joey's also went above and beyond with the bill!! We didn't quite make our minimum for the room, but we were close, so they threw in some extras for us to meet our minimum!!
Wonderful staff, wonderful food (unlike ANY other "wedding food" which usually is so-so), and a wonderful space!! I definitely recommend Joey's!! Don't waste your time and money with other places!!!
