Several Las Vegas restaurants, especially steakhouses and those specializing in seafood, offer stone crab on their menus. Stone crabs harvest in the warm, shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean during cooler months. After the stone crab's arm is broken off, it returns to the water where it will likely grow a new arm in the next year. Las Vegas restaurants usually fly the stone crab in daily and offer it fresh during the cooler winter months.

Other crab items on Joe’s menu include Jonah crabs, jumbo Alaskan King crab legs, crab and artichoke gratin, crab cakes and stone crab bisque. The expansive menu includes many steak choices and seafood from around the world.
