Our parents, Ted & Pearl Kipnis have been coming to Joe’s Stone Crab since 1948. And for those 65 years, they have been coming to Joe’s once a week for almost the whole time. Our parents have been bringing us to Joe’s since we were little children and now we are in our 60’s and 70’s and we continue to bring our children as well. They have been here with their children, their grandchildren and their great grandchildren. Their dear friend and owner, Jo Ann and her family have been the perfect hosts for many celebrations (birthdays, anniversaries, etc.) and the staff including Dennis, Eddie, Bones and Janine always welcomes them like family. Their most recent visit today (April 1, 2013) was to celebrate my father’s 92nd birthday. Joe’s is a family tradition.
