Joseph’s Special Pizza

16. What would you recommend to someone who's been a few times and wants to try something different?

Our Fettuccine Alfredo is amazing. It's made from scratch - the eggs are whipped, not powered. We use garlic and parmesan. The Alfredo sauce is creamy and delicious. The chicken is our marinated chicken, so it's got that flavorful seasoning to it. If we use veal we tenderize it ourselves. We also offer the Alfredo with shrimp if you like seafood.

Our Marinara dishes are also excellent and different. We start with our homemade sauce, which is a very rich and flavorful red sauce that we make with many spices. We add in fresh veggies such as carrots, onions and zucchini. You can have it with or without meat. Our blend is quite unique. We're always having people come up to us to try and guess what the spices are.

17. What would you consider to be your signature dish at Joseph's?

There are a few items. Our Marsala is one. We make it with veal or chicken. For Chicken Marsala we start with very fresh chicken which we marinate for 24 hours in olive oil and more than 10 other ingredients. The marinating ensures the chicken is very tender and flavorful. We sauté the chicken to order. The Marsala sauce is made in-house and cooked to order with fresh mushrooms. We add a touch of cream to our sauce which produces a very smooth taste that is different from a lot of marsala sauces.

Another signature dish is our Cauliflower Parmigiana. For the longest time we were one of the only restaurants that served it. We start with pasta and cover it with a layer of our homemade marinara sauce. We then add on fresh cauliflower that has been blanched, hand breaded with our own bread crumbs, and deep fried. Finally, we add mozzarella cheese and bake it all in the oven. It's a very unique dish.

18. What's your most popular dish?

Our lasagna. We start with lean meat that we fresh grind ourselves. Our sauce is homemade and slow cooked for 8 hours. Then we use 4 different cheeses that we layer on. The freshness of the meat and the slowed cooked sauce make all the difference and you can really taste it in the final dish. There are a lot of different ways to make lasagna. I think that when people discover our lasagna they tend to stick with it which is why it's become our most popular item.

19. What's your favorite item at Joseph's?

Susie: I love the Cauliflower Parmigiana.

Sandra: we have an amazing fish sandwich. We start with a lightly battered piece of fresh fish. I like it deep fried but it also comes baked. It's served on a flat roll from our bakery along with our homemade Thousand Islands dressing, lettuce and tomatoes. It's really good! If I’m having pizza then my favorite is the Joseph’s Special Pizza.

20. Where do you eat out when you're not eating at Joseph's?

Susie: to another local restaurant like Ocean 60 or Tuptim Thai.

Sandra: definitely something local.
