Jo’s...as always - Pensacola (FL)

5 /5 Prity Patel: Normas bread pudding was always my favorite thing to eat. I remembered moving back to Florida and I want my family to taste Normas. When I found out they were closed, I knew I would never find a place like that ever again. Fast forward now to couple of weeks...I am scrolling through FB and someone commented about bread pudding and Jos and the connection to Normas. I have lived in Pensacola for 6yrs now and never heard of Jos. Well, I had to go check this place out. The parking lot is very small, so be prepared to park on the street. Its right on the corner of 9th and Wright St. We walked in to this cute little fancy café style place. The inside was kinda loud and thankfully the weather was amazing, so we sat outside. The service was amazing....the entire staff were professional and so kind. I am vegetarian and she helped me to figure out what to order and even custom made me a sandwich. I missed missed my poppyseed dressing....I can drink that stuff. It was so amazing on my salad and fruit. The real test was the bread pudding...OMG!! I finally found my long lost bread pudding. So many memories of my past came back to life! I highly recommend this place to everyone. Its a great light lunch place.....great place for a girls lunch....babyshower...bridal shower....basically anything! I am glad I connected to this place and I can not wait to tell everyone that remembers Normas to go try this place out! My new place to eat.

5 /5 Rebecca Stavros: The food was delicious and beautiful! The atmosphere is amazing, whether outside or inside. A bit pricey, but wonderful for a special treat. Such a relaxing and beautiful place to eat.

5 /5 Ingrid Rodgers: I had been hearing about the chicken salad at Jos so my friend and I decided to stop by one day. But first, let me tell you about the atmosphere. The restaurant is located in what I can only describe as an oasis of beauty and tranquility known as DUH. There is also a retail store and furniture store located there. The grounds are reminiscent of maybe a beautiful place in Europe, I just love it. Please make an effort to visit if youre ever at 9th Ave and Wright St. The restaurant is small and intimate, with a bar and its quite lovely. We were seated quickly, I would recommend a seat in the room to the right as its a little removed from the front door and a little more intimate. We started off with cups of really delicious and well seasoned gumbo and I decided to order the salad sampler which consisted of a scoop of chicken salad, tuna and egg salad. It also came with a slice of poppyseed bread that was divine and you can even purchase a whole loaf. The chicken salad was everything I heard about, delicious with just a hint if sweetness from apple chunks. The tuna and egg salads were also first rate. My bestie had a chicken salad sandwich and a side salad and she was very pleased. But, lets talk about the bread pudding. Ohhhh my, it was Heavenly! It was soft, warm and it melted in my mouth. I had the whiskey sauce and my friend ordered the amaretto sauce and we both ordered extra to go, its that good, probably the best Ive EVER tasted! Dont pass it up! Service was spot on, we never had to ask for a thing! Jos is also a perfect spot for a baby shower or bridal shower, it has a very feminine touch. Do yourself a flavor and gooooo!

5 /5 E. J.: I met a friend here for brunch and my God, what a magnificent place! From the tranquility, yummy food, great drinks, to excellent service, this place has it all! The waitress was very helpful, friendly, and had great recommendations. For drinks, I had a watermelon mimosa and a blueberry lemon mule. For appetizer, we shared a Baked Brie (so gooood). And I had to take my Champagne Chicken Salad to go. I will definitely be back soon for more mimosas and walks around the gorgeous garden! I do wish they were open a bit later but I understand why this must stay as an exclusive hidden gem to us locals!
