I was very surprised by this restaurant, especially the bar. Keenan offered great conversation and a fantastically strong version of an old fashioned. The Hawaiian pizza and truffle fries also gave flavors that were broad enough to satisfy while not being overly strong. I finished with something they call the milk caramel tower, never heard or seen of it, but apparently something common in Italy, and it was also delicious. I will be happy to return.

Surprised to see this place not super busy. Homemade and interesting options, everything was seasoned well and prices were reasonable. The gnocchi and au poivre steak was the reason I chose there and wasn’t disappointed! Rich, salty (as it should be) and a perfect portion… the sweetness of corn cuts the richness a bit. My coworker opted for the cajun lasagna, which was a very creole inspired seafood dish and quite good, creamy but with a good kick. Tiramisu, light fluffy and not dry… this restaurant Def deserves a visit in a land of Midwest bar food.

This place was amazing. The food is top notch and the service was excellent. We tried the jambalaya pasta, the poutine, and some kids meals. My oldest wasn’t sold on macaroni & cheese with Alfredo sauce, but that was the only complaint any of us had with food.

The beef stroganoff was delicious! Cesar salad wasn’t traditional, but was very tasty and refreshing.

Super great service. Waitress was willing to answer any questions about the menu. I had the lobster Mac and cheese. It was extremely buttery, which I didn’t like. It could use less butter. Other than that, very great food. Fried mozzarella is super tasty. They have a bar as well.

Wow!!! We had supper here tonight. My husband and I both feel like it’s been a while since we ate somewhere that just blew us away. We started with bruschetta and fried ravioli. Our kids loved them! My husband had the beef stroganoff and I had the black and bleu risotto. The flavor of these dishes were absolutely mouth watering!!! We were nervous because the restaurant is definitely nicer then the average family restaurant but the welcoming feeling took away the hesitation! Our server was top notch! We will make it a point to stop here more often as we travel through Kearny multiple times in a year. Thank you for an amazing experience!!

I came into Kearney, Nebraska for a work trip and stayed at the Holiday Inn (not my first choice but better hotels were sold out). To my surprise attached to the Holiday Inn was an amazing restaurant named Joy’s Table. You’re in Nebraska at a steakhouse, so if you order anything other than steak it’s a waste. The service was fantastic starting with the hosts and the servers. The food tasted great, I just wish it was a little bigger portion and sauce a little less salty. Overall great experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meals. My husband had the grilled tuna and I had the grilled salmon. Both meals were exceptional. Very well done, enjoyed them immensely. Highly recommend!

The best part of our visit was the server. The worst part was the food. It was massively over salted and you could tell the fries were not fresh. On top of that, the prices of their food were outrageous! If my daughter had not picked it for her birthday dinner, we would have left right after the food arrived. I do not recommend Joy’s Table.
