Joe's Italian Foods & Pizza

"Joes is a hometown favorite in Newton Illinois. The pizza I got was great, I'll be back soon without a doubt. A good side pizza with one or two toppings will cost you $20 or less."

"This review is not for the food. It's the way they run the restaurant. We were on our way back home, several hundred miles away. During our visit to this area, we tried twice to visit the restaurant, and they were closed during the hours they were supposed to be open. It was a couple of days after Christmas. The third time, on our way out of town, we were thrilled to see the OPEN sign on the door. We pulled up at 1:45. We headed toward the door, and we saw the CLOSED sign on the door, where it had just been switched from Open. It was swinging quite a bit like someone did it quickly, then moved out of the door view. I knocked on the door, and then I called them. No answer at either attempt. It looks like they saw us coming and changed the sign. We're so disappointed in the way this was done. If you close at 1:45, then post your hours as such. Truly, we were so disappointed. That was going to be "the cherry on top" of our trip in the way back home."

"Over the years I've eaten at every Joe's pizza around, and the Newton location has been my favorite since it opened. The place is clean and well decorated. The wait staff is great. The food is top notch. While Joe's is known for its pizza, don't disregard the sandwiches! Do yourself a favor and get a sausage hoagie with peppers and onions. Thanks for all the great food over the years!"

"Excellent food with generous it portions of pasta. Very pleasant efficient staff. Joe's has that country friendly atmosphere. Clean and you have enough room when seated. We had eight people and we were not squished like many restaurants. Prices are reasonable and best part... delish food. We had chicken parmigiana, pizza, maccheroni, and Alfredo pasta. It has been there almost 100 yrs."
