Joseph's has existed for longer than our 27 years in Stillwater. In fact, our realtor met us there when we were house shopping. Joseph's looks out over scenic Highway 36 -- a great location if you're looking for that authentic service-road-next-to-a-flat-ugly-highway experience. Locals have always been quick to recommend this place, the primary reason being that misery loves company. Most of the people who love this place are now in their eighties with diminished tastebuds (and policemen). The food is completely nondescript and vastly overpriced. The last time we ate here, which was many years ago, we were unhappy with our food (their special) and complained about it. We were rudely informed that this item was a big seller and ""Everybody loves it."" In other words, ""We don't give a rat's hiney if you don't like it. Your neighbors have low enough standards to have kept us in business for decades and we don't need you."" Their pies are overrated. Believe us, there's nothing available here that isn't better and cheaper elsewhere. Way worse than mediocre, with no ambiance. Take this seriously. We're not being malicious, just trying to save someone from wasting their money. This place is a reason why NOT to go local. If you have a shard of self-respect, don't eat here. Use the money you'll save by not eating here for gas to go someplace good.
