  I’d love to give you a detailed review of my dining experience at Joia but I can’t because I never got closer than the parking lot . Joia was recommended to us by another restaurateur friend of ours . Last night I consulted their website which clearly indicates opening hours until 10:30 pm . As an added measure I called to see if reservations were necessary to which they responded no and that they had plenty of room for 2 people . I told them that we were leaving Kleinburg in 10 minutes . The GPS showed 27 minutes and we left at 8:15 . Due to road closures we were detoured which made the trip 45 minutes and we arrived at 8:59 . The hours posted on the door did not match their web site and showed 10:00 pm . We found the doors locked so my wife knocked on the window at which point she saw who I’ll assume was the manager or owner run and hide in the kitchen !!! Really ???? So I sat in my truck and called . They answered the phone and told me that they are closed and that they had sent the kitchen staff home . I asked why they would not have the professional courtesy to call us and inform us that they are closing early – his response was turse , unapologetic and borderline rude , as if to say this was our fault . There is nothing more infuriating than establishments that don’t keep their posted hours . If business is to slow and you can’t afford to keeps the lights on then at least have the decency to let your customers know your intentions before they waste 2 hours of travel time and a quarter tank of fuel to have the door slammed in your face . I can afford to eat anywhere and we are known to travel for good food but I WILL NEVER STEP FOOT IN THIS PLACE , and I will actively discourage anyone else From doing so, there are plenty of other establishments that deserve our business – but then again if Joia is sitting empty on a Tuesday night their business or lack thereof most likely has nothing to do with food quality and everything to do with their puss poor approach to customer service .

  What can I say that hasn’t been said before about Joia. Mark and his team provide a great meal in a comfortable atmosphere whether you choose to come casual or a bit dressy . Fantastic homemade pastas and the bruschetta is a must try. They have finally bottled those amazing hot peppers that they serve if you want to kick it up a few notches make sure you grab a jar.Always a great meal at a moderate price .
