Return for burger: five stars - I had an amazing experience at Half Moon Bay Joe's! The half-pound burger was a standout--juicy, perfectly cooked, and topped with fresh ingredients on a toasted bun. For only $10, it's a fantastic deal for such quality. The fries were surprisingly delicious too! Coupled with excellent service, this place has become a favorite of mine. I'll definitely be back!Return for desert: five stars - I was blown away by the flan at Half Moon Bay Joe's! The texture is incredibly smooth, and the caramel sauce is just the right balance of sweetness--definitely not burnt. It's so good that I found myself wanting spoonful after spoonful. This dessert is a standout and worth every penny. I can't wait to come back for another serving!

For some reason I was expecting more from this place. Walked in and it seemed like an old Dennys/ Diner. Nothing exciting but it was clean. The server seemed nice enough and seemed like she was really trying. She might have been new because every question I asked she had to go back to the cook to ask. I asked her if I could substitute the toast and potatoes with either eggs or bacon and she goes back to ask then returns and says yes we can give you just the steak and bacon. I told her I still wanted the eggs so she goes back to ask again and returns adding we will have to charge you as a side of we do that. I told her to leave it as is because she was getting more confused with each question.I ordered the special steak and eggs and she asked me what kind of steak. I told her whatever steak came with the breakfast. She seemed very confused. When the food came out was quite subpar. It wasn't awful but it wasn't great by any means. The toast was hard and the steak flavorless nothing special about it. I would probably not pick this place to eat at if you have other options in the area. The bill for 2 adults came out to $70 with tip. 2 steak and egg breakfasts, 1 kids grilled cheese, and 2 coffees. Definitely not worth the price tag. The one positive part was the girl that was responsible for refilling our drinks and coffee was on point. She made sure our cups never got half way. She kept them full even after our meal.

Half Moon Bay is a beautiful place to visit but the average cost of dinning has gone up significantly recently. This location is a little ways done from the main tourist area but is worth a visit especially if you like the old fashioned "Dinner Experience". Lots of open space filled with Large cushioned booth's so you can sit comfortably enjoying the large window views. Food is good but overpriced, however the service makes up for that. If you're a beer drinker you'll get a little more if you go with Tap rather than bottled. Few things:-Kids portion are large and come extremely hot in temp -Water tastes like Tap (perhaps go for bottled).-Beer on Tap kinda has a funny taste bottled beer taste old -appetizer's are lacking in options -For dessert a number of pies and ice cream options. I had a cheesecake 3/5. Over all good service and restrooms are clean.

Arrived about 7:30am or so, was warmly greeted by a gentleman named Jesus. Super nice & respectful guy. He proceeded to hand me a menu and allowed me to pick any table I liked. The restaurant had two other tables in addition to me, and I must say everyone seemed to be enjoying their morning here at Joes. I asked Jesus what he recommended as I had never been there before, he let me know that everything was delicious, therefore I ordered the NY steak & eggs, steak cooked medium, accompanied by sourdough toast and breakfast potatoes. Must say the steak was made PERFECT! Nice crisp exterior of the steak, with a nice juicy red tender inside. The steak was truly a delight. I recommend! In all, I give this place a 10/10, for service, speed of service, and flavorful delicious food, and attentiveness to my coffee and water. Which is at times at many places overlooked. Not here tho! So to the staff, thank you for a wonderful breakfast and great start to my day! Looking forward to visiting you guys again!

Hope the owner reads this. We were the only customers for most of our visit. The food was mostly tasty and the service was very good. In hopes that I will have a reason to visit again, I asked the waitress to ask the chef to serve food on warmed plates. Our food and plates were slightly warm. The American cheese in our omelette was not melted. Also plumbing issues. The Men's toilet can't flush a toilet seat liner in one flush and there is a small leak at the handle. The coffee was great and I loved the free Daily Journal newspaper. Fix em please. We drove an extra 26 miles to be customers.

Personally, I thought my experience was great. If you want a nice, quiet restaurant where you can take your time and not feel rushed, this is 100% the place. (I went on a Saturday, where it is known for HMB to get pretty busy)To begin, the host let me choose where I wanted to sit, which was very nice! Since it was pretty empty, I sat in the corner by the bar where I could read quietly. The kitchen was eating lunch, but were very quick to cook my food and it was delicious! Servers checked in frequently, kitchen staff seemed great, and the food was delicious. Since I went there to read, I finished paying and they allowed me to stay there and finish reading as long as I wanted. At no point did I feel rushed or unwanted there! I can't wait to go back again! Bathrooms were also clean and well maintained. Bussers also would frequently clean tables, even if they weren't used!I recommend the pancakes if you want something simple and not too filling.

I'd give them 0 stars if I could. Who ever heard of frozen spinach and canned mushrooms in a restaurant served omelette? This is what I got! Awful, mush! The sourdough bread was old and stale. Don't go here, unless you're a desperado. To top it off, the cook got mad at the server who confirmed my suspicions. Shady, Shady, Shady... Dishonest!!!
