The Joint Hooks Sherman Oaks With Coffee and Seafood Next Month

More news today on The Joint, the dual concept coming to Sherman Oaks in January. Owned and operated by former Boba Truck founder Liwei Liao, the spot along Ventura Boulevard looks to marry a casual cafe coffee space with seafood favorites from across the globe.

The large 4,000 square foot restaurant will offer bistro seating for 70, a full patio, a takeaway section for to-go coffee and seafood, and open kitchens to watch all the action happen. You can watch Liao talk up his ideas for The Joint — including his passion for fishing — in the below video:

Barring any setbacks, The Joint should open in Sherman Oaks by January, with a location right across from Petit Trois. Tony Yanow’s upcoming craft beer space is right next door too, making for a full slate of fun new options for that stretch. When all is said and done, The Joint will offer breakfast through dinner and weekend brunch, with dishes that span the gamut from pastries to lobster rolls to cocktails.
