Joes of Avenue U - Brooklyn (NY)

5 /5 chris caracciolo: Its definitely one of the best places left for Sicilian food. The food here is super delicious, preserving the original flavors, style, and taste of its origin. Service is friendly and on point . The rice ball special is everything. Iykyk panel is severed here, and its done perfectly. Ive been enjoying this place since Im a kid. Stop by and treat yourself before its gone .

5 /5 Robert Goodman: Great Sicilian and other Italian American dishes. The panelle special is an incredibly great yet simple treat. The eggplant is great; it’s not breaded and admittedly that’s a personal preference of mine. The octopus salad is out of this world. Always fresh. I never have trouble parking and the F train is right outside as well.

5 /5 Gaetano Di Pisa: Awesome spot. I ordered calamari, pane panelle, and a chicken parm hero. It was delicious. They truly carry the tastes and recipes used in Palermo. I’ve had a few of the “Sicilian” spots in NYC and they’re at the top. The staff is actually Sicilian, and even the menu is in Sicilian. This is a proper spot to go if you’re missing a taste of home. 10/10 recommend.

5 /5 Lou B Do B Do: The only place to get authentic Sicilian food and a real "Sicilian street food" experience. I had a fantastic panelle sandwich....Italian chickpea fritter with fresh ricotta topped with a melted hard cheese! I have been looking for this particular dish (a real Sicilian street food) for a very long time. It was exquisitely superb! Apparently its one of their many specialities. I will be back to this place, and i highly recommend it to any real foodie.

5 /5 Matt Mancuso: Finally made it to Joes for lunch... We ordered the octopus salad.. Fried calamari.. baked clams.. panelle and seafood linguini.. all items were fresh and delicious. Service perhaps couldve been quicker but I didnt care.. well worth the trip here. Old school joint in the italian holdout of Ave U.
