I really enjoyed this experience. The staff was attentive and polite. The service was pleasant! The food was great!!! The best part for me was how accommodating they were. My husband wanted to try a charcuterie board; but I do not eat pork. They curated an all beef board for us. It was delicious!!

We have been to Joseph Decuis a few times now and have been disappointed every time. First off, the atmosphere is nice especially if you get a private room. The issues we have had were with the food and drinks. They were out of nearly everything that we tried to order. By the time we ordered they only had a couple of steaks left in stock (everyone came for the steak). Onto the second option, the fish... they were also out of the fish. The restaurant was not busy when we were there. Next, they ran out of 2 of the types of liquor we were ordering. The service was average at best. Typically I would let it go but to spend more than $200 per person for the experience we had I definitely won't be back. We were asked about our experience at a later date, after expressing our displeasure we assumed someone would reach back out but never heard anything else.

I'm writing this the day after my wife's birthday dinner at Joseph Decuis and the best word to describe how I feel about the whole experience is embarrassed. I'm embarrassed to have spent $400 on a meal for two that was seemingly prepared with a lack of care. We ordered the charcuterie board and though we enjoyed the meats, cheeses and spreads, the bread was so oddly salty. It's as if they toasted it with salted butter and then proceeded to salt it again. I can handle some salt so I wasn't up in arms about it, but it was certainly odd. Next up was the wedge salad. Presentation was stunning with a heavy dusting of bread crumbs. I'd never seen a wedge salad done that way. Upon the first bite I am shocked - way too salty. Like what? Other than the bread crumbs, it was topped with capers and bacon, which are inherently salty in their own right. But the overwhelming salt seemed to be coming from the bread crumbs, which coated the entire salad. My wife and I were both beside ourselves after round two of immense salt, but we still didn't say anything. It was at this point that we realized we were not impressed with this establishment, but we were still optimistic about our main course and the restaurant's flagship dish - the 5 oz Wagyu strip steak. My mouth was watering as the steaks were dropped off and in hindsight, I'm not sure if that was because it looked appetizing or if it was because my body was trying to contend with its elevated sodium levels. First bite of steak was perfect. Finally, the chef redeemed himself. I make my way to the mashed potatoes and sauteed vegetables, which included cauliflower, carrots and parsnips. Not the nicest presentation as they were all mounded together under the steak with no delineation between mashed potatoes and vegetables, but whatever - it wasn't the star of the dish. First bite of that...no way. Total salt bomb. Seriously to the point of being inedible. At this point, I feel defeated. Now, I never complain at restaurants but after this experience and with also knowing that our bill was going to be at least over $300, I had to say something. I'm going to backtrack and say that our server, Michelle, was absolutely fantastic. She was friendly and attentive and the reason why this review gets two starts instead of one. Upon telling her, she apologized sincerely and I got the hint that it wasn't the first time she had heard that about the chef. She offers us dessert on the house, which was much appreciated. We decided to stick with sherry as weren't feeling inspired by the kitchen's dessert offerings. My wife and I have both worked in hospitality. Front of house talks to the kitchen - I'm certain the chef was informed of our complaints. A few minutes later, we see him come out of the kitchen. He makes eye contact with my wife, likely just long enough to identify us, and then proceeds to walk into the opposing dining room. For a $400 meal, I would have appreciated hearing from the chef. We're not confrontation people, and we certainly don't like to complain, but an apology or any admission of fault would have gone a long way. And further, I can't even believe I'm still writing this. But again, I'm embarrassed and somewhat mad that a restaurant can get away with charging that much for a meal that is borderline inedible.

I've had the opportunity to dine in micheline starred restaurants across the country and Joseph Decuis served us dishes and courtesies worthy of those restaurants. It's the greatest in all of Indiana and its attention to details and its sourcing make it a cut above. The wines, beers and spirits were all wonderful and complimenting. The charcuterie was made up of wonderful components each on their own and beautiful together. The soup was delicious and also unique which is important to us! However the steak and mash were the center piece. I know steak. I know how to cook steak and very well. It was absolutely perfect. The ratios, the cut and the cook couldn't have been better. Top 3 of my favorite restaurants I've eaten at and I will tell all I know about it and have already secured another reservation for the near future. Bravo. (And please forgive the board picture, my childish glee got ahead of myself. I took the picture after I lightly distorted their presentation!)

Wonderful service, great menu options and beautiful presentation. I think we tried just about everything on the menu and it was all better than expected. Would definitely recommend for a date night or evening with friends.

My wife and I went here for our wedding anniversary and had a great time. We enjoyed the appetizers and sides more that the steaks I think. Incredible flavor and great portions. Very pleased with my visit. Thanks!

Great atmosphere and setting. Enjoyed a Valentine Day dinner with my wife and no complaints until the end. We were neglected at the end of the main course and desert portion as our server was catering to one adjacent table. We were finished and had to wait longer than normal to get desert ordered and our bill. Other than that, it was a fantastic evening.

This local fine dining is the anchor of downtown Roanoke. Truly farm to table--the farm is just 6mi away and absolutely stunning. First impression, I'd love to see the resteraunt updated, it feels a little out of date, a little musty, and the seating in the atrium is not comfortable. The menu is very small and seasonal. I appreciated that they offered a burger or chicken strip meal that was not on the menu as this cuisine does not cater to a 12 and under guest. We started with a cheese board, all the varieties of summer sausage were house made wagyu, including the best chorizo I've had to date, and a honey pepper jam that was the perfect addition, just a tad too sweet but still good. We tried the chicken entree, my husband raved. The grilled Caesar salad was beautiful. The Lil Mac tartar was adorable but very loaded with pickles in the special sauce. I tried bone marrow for the first time, because if you're going to order the butter from the Gods, it should be wagyu--a Decuis staple. My plate was gorgeous, loaded with savory broth, beef and vegetables that were seasoned perfectly. The pita was buttery and charred, just the most beautiful complement. I wish we would've ordered the steak, but the prices are steep, 75-95/cut. My Thursday night budget laughed at that. There are three items available for dessert, but the dessert drinks were abundant.

Excellent food, great story, and the best service in town. I am an older person, who was fortunate to travel in my time. Now that I am retired I don't travel much, but when I eat here it reminds me of the some of the best dining experiences I have had during my 69 years on this earth. Keep up the good work guys!

What a great experience. French food from farm to table. Friendly and excellent service. I have traveled to different places in the world and this is one of my favorites.

An absolutely amazing experience. The whole staff went above and beyond to make my 5th wedding anniversary amazing. The had a custom message printed on the menu for my wife and I. The service was out of this world. And the food... absolutely amazing. It will be a taste I will never forget. Huge shoutout to Destiny for the amazing A++++ service. I can't wait to come back again in the future.

Everything was amazing, our waitress was so pleasant and informative of all of our dishes and the wine pairing.

I recently photographed a wedding at Joseph Decuis Farms and I couldn't speak more highly of the entire experience. It was such a beautiful and well run event. The day went so smoothly, the venue is an absolute dream (with so many great locations for photos), the food was out of this world (I've been talking about the chicken and waffles and praline bacon for months), and multiple times throughout the day I saw not just the staff and team but also the owners making sure things were well executed and going smoothly. I've worked at so many venues and this one is top notch. I cannot recommend them enough.

I have had the privilege of photographing several weddings at Joseph Decuis Wagyu Farm and every one of them as felt like I was being invited into someone's home. The grounds are exquisite and offer a variety of beautiful backdrops for wedding photos. Thankfully there are dressing quarters on the property for the ladies and gents to get ready for the big day as well. It's a serene place to host your wedding and/or reception. As a vendor for the wedding, I appreciate the intentionality of everyone from Joseph Decuis making sure the brides and grooms enjoy their day to the fullest.

I'll repost as it's important. This place has the worst wagyu that I've tried. As I've researched wagyu Joseph Decuis is not a place you want to have your first experience with wagyu. I will also reiterate that the employees were less than satisfactory when we attended for a marriage anniversary. They manager accosted me as I left the restroom, (prepared to leave the entire restaurant.) She grabbed my wrist and attempted to force a mask over my face. After reporting her to law enforcement I was advised by the officer that it's very unlikely that she would have charges pressed against her because of the Decuis's connection to the persecuting attorney. This was absolutely the case. Nothing was ever pursued, and I was never contacted by the prosecutor about this woman literally putting her hands on me accosting me inside of their restaurant. This is not a place that you would want to go if you want to have a great experience with wagyu, accompanied with good service.

Enjoyed the wagyu! Food was great. Best husband took me for anniversary. One for the books

I wasn’t bad, but I thought it was very overrated. It’s definitely overpriced for what you get. $95 for a small filet and a small amount of potatoes and vegetables. My old fashioned was really good. The banana foster donut holes were too alcoholic and salty tasting. Honestly, we could have gotten a more robust meal at Ruth’s Chris, and it would have been less expensive. I did not notice a quality difference in the filet between both places if there is any. The service was good. While not the restaurant’s fault, you occasionally get customers that are loud, pretentious, and act a fool in places like this. This visit was no exception. The customer in question ultimately invaded our space looking at the paintings in the dining room.

My husband got us reservations for our anniversary as we had been wanting to try this restaurant for some time. It was so delicious! Everything paired very well together. The service was excellent. The food was all done perfectly. The menu was all things that I don't think we normally would have chosen to order ourselves but we are so glad we got to try it all because it was amazing. There wasn't anything we didn't love. Would highly recommend if you're looking for something different and special.

Great food, great atmosphere, wonderful owners that care about their customers. We stayed in the Inn and went for apps one day and the six course dinner the next. Incredible experience and we WILL be back!

Wait staff was fantastic! The food on the other hand ehhh. We had the prosciutto app which was great and the oyster on a half Bienville style were fantastic! Now on the steak we had a choice of skirt or "speical" reserved steak. So we went with the "special" per our waitress and it was the toughest most inconsistent piece of meat I have had out of a restaurant in a long time. Other than the tough main course (steak) what they are known for, it wasn't a bad experience.

Really pretty restaurant, the art was great. Serving staff were extremely friendly. Our appetizers were very good - the corned beef stew and mushroom focaccia. It took a long time for our mains. I think I would have really liked my pork, but it was luke warm by time it got to table, second attempt wasn’t much better. They had an extra trout which they gave me which was very good. My husband’s wagyu steak was tasty, but for price, it didn’t overwhelm. The chocolate cake was delicious. I definitely appreciate when restaurants go out of their way to make sure their customers are satisfied. If I lived in area, would go back for a nice evening out.

Let me start by saying, I have spent thousands of dollars at this restaurant throughout the years, and use to rank this restaurant as a definite 5 stars!!!! However my last experience was not up to the standards this restaurant once was. Starting with the menu, the website, and other menu's online where all different compared to the one they had there. The menu was also confusing because appetizers were listed after soups and salads. However the waitress, came and asked us about the appetizers first, and when I mentioned soup she said she would put in appetizers first.... Secondly, I asked about there amazing bread they use to have. The waiter helping our waitress said they hadn't had bread due to COVID, which at this point just doesn't make sense literally at all...and to be honest there bread was what set them apart. I wasn't even offered bread I could even buy....which for someone like me willing to spend hundreds on a dinner out was wild. IF JD is reading this YOU HAVE TO BRING BACK THE BREAD PPl!! Because here's the deal, Fort Wayne NOW actually has good restaurants these days and your not the only high end restaurant anymore... Thirdly, your drink menu for wine has GONE DOWN HILL holy moly that was just pathetic. There where basically 10 wines to choose from.... I was ready to buy a hundred dollar + bottle...but settled on a martini...ok.. Lastly, my main course the mushroom ravioli was Applebee's quality, not great..... I will also tell you the waitress was basic, when people pay as much as your charging people want to know MORE. Like where was some of the food sourced or a interesting fact or two about the restaurant or town something to create an experience... I will give JD one more chance and visit again, but if JD doesn't improve you will lose my business forever.. People like me have no problem paying for a quality dinning experience!! But people like me also can't be fooled.. Good luck JD

Go to a restaurant that supports a local Congressman who incited and supported a failed coup attempt against our country on 1/6/2021. If you love America, I'd suggest avoid eating here as your money will be flowing into the pockets of an insurrectionist. Will never patronize this place.

My wife surprised me for my 30th birthday here. While the food was good and the drinks were great, our service was well below average. We went long periods of time without somebody checking on us, we heard other servers telling the story of the restaurant, having conversations with their guests, but ours would be gone long periods of time and when she did attend to us, she seemed rushed and frustrated. The other servers were filling our waters or giving us our check and we saw them more than our actual server. We all have off nights, but I think for all the high praise we heard of this place, how they take pride in their service, and how expensive it was, we were expecting much better service.

We had the wagyu fullblood, calamari, crab/pasta and the wedge salad. The food was very good and prepared to perfection. The wedge had a twist from what im used to and it was great. The calamari was not the typical fried/breaded platter that I normally see but it was small portioned with a very complementary sauce. The drinks and staff were nice as well. The wagyu tasted like a great steak. I couldn't tell the difference between wagyu and the other top grade steaks from other fine restaurants. This didn't meet my expectation as I was looking for something to really set it apart from other great steaks via texture or flavor. It was delicious and very good but typical.
