Our first dining experience at Joe’s was in 1971 when my father was at a convention in Bal Harbour. I was just released from the Army, and we used the occasion for a vacation. We loved the stone crabs so much, we went back 4 nights in a row. My mother finally said “isn’t there another restaurant in Miami Beach?” We went somewhere else one night and then went back to Joe’s the last 3 nights of our vacation. Go back whenever in Florida. In 1971, the entrance was at south of building, across from an old dog track.
