As Valentine’s Day edges closer and closer, it’s getting to be crunch time for couples trying to decide where to go for dinner. Luckily, Tacoma’s classic Italian go-to restaurant Joeseppi’s, located at 2207 N. Pearl St., has you covered.
If you don’t want to stay in and cook, the restaurant’s four-course meal for two, priced at just $41.95, will fill your partner’s heart as well as his or her stomach. The meal starts with bruschetta, followed by a choice of soup or salad for both customers. The main course is an option of prime rib, chicken saltimbocca, halibut or vegetarian ravioli. The final option is for a dessert that will feature either tiramisu or cheesecake.
Joeseppi’s is also looking to add to the romantic atmosphere by including a barbershop quartet that will go around and serenade the various tables, as if two people unable to stand after scarfing down a ton of Italian food weren’t romantic enough.
Of course, Joeseppi’s isn’t just a one-hit wonder, good only for the most romantic day of the year – the restaurant has provided quality food to the Tacoma area since 2005 and shows no signs of slowing down thanks to owner Joe Stortini.
“We have great food, great service and a fun time,” Stortini said.
Joeseppi’s is known for its various weekly specials including military appreciation Sundays, which means 15 percent off meals with your military ID and happy hour prices in the lounge all day. Tuesday features all you can eat spaghetti, choosing marinara or meat sauce as a topping for $8 and Wednesday features all bottled wine half off. Finally, Thursday is prime rib night, featuring the dish for low prices.
Joeseppi’s is open Monday through Thursday 11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m., Friday and Saturday 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Sunday for dinner from noon to 8 p.m. For more information about Joeseppi’s or their catering opportunities, visit http://www.joeseppis.com or call (253) 761-5555.
