Temia Joy's Events, Catering and Restaurant

EVERYTHING from start to finish made this a wonderful experience! The ambiance was amazing, the restaurant was clean, and the food was out of this world! Everything was served to my friends and I piping hot and well seasoned. Temia is definitely a woman who is driven and committed to her craft and it shows in the delicious meals and desserts that she offers. She came to our table several times to check on us and wasn’t afraid to be social even in the midst of COVID-19. I’ll definitely be back and am excited to be working with her for my upcoming baby shower!

Don’t miss this hidden gem!! The food was delicious! Setting and service are lovely and make you feel right at home! You can’t go wrong.

Love Love Love Ms Tamia Joy's place! I ordered the Chicken Alfredo (Petite) with a side salad that comes the meal. She had me at the salad. It was so full of flavor, with just the right textures-Yum! The Alfredo did not disappoint, that sauce was made from scratch. Creamy and flavorful! My husband had the Spaghetti with made from scratch meat sauce. He said the sauce tasted fresh, very flavorful. Our granddaughter had the fried chicken and fries. When she bit into it, I could hear the "crunch" that you want to hear from fried chicken. She enjoyed her food as well, lots of flavor is what we have to say! This quaint, inviting, great atmosphere is one for all to enjoy who go! Such a Pleasure, and we are so looking forward to trying out the rest of the menu. We will be back!!

WOW WOW WOW, I just moved to the area and have been wanting to try this place for a while now. Blown away. I got the chicken Alfredo. AMAZING!! I got the petite portion and as you can see in the picture, even with it half eaten, it's still a huge portion. And even put into a take out box, the presentation of the food was still awesome and it wasn't this saucy mess that I find from getting takeout pasta from other places. My only disappointment with this place is that it isn't open for more days of the week and longer hours. I will definitely be eating here again!

We had the good fortune to find this gem this season on our sojourn from FL to NJ. It’s located in a classic southern house of over a hundred years.. Beautifully appointed with welcoming homey decor. The talented owner chef is as welcoming as the decor. The fare was nothing short of spectacular! I had the Southern fried chicken, a touch of heaven, with Mac and cheese and fries to round out the comfort food theme. It was well worth the cholesterol bump only offset by a marvelous cucumber, tomato and red onion salad. My wife had the novel chicken Alfredo. All exceptional. If you find yourself anywhere near Dunn, NC do not miss Joy!

I have been in and around Dunn all my life and had never ate this quality of (what I like to call) "high class soul food" before. Everything was divine. I ordered the salmon and grits and the grits were the best Ive ever had. No comparison. Please try this restaurant! You will be back. It is that good and has a great atmosphere.

Temia is the best chef hands down. Her skills and personality makes her a step above the rest. You cannot go wrong with anything you select on the menu. A few of my favs are the wings, salmon and Alfredo. Her collards/cabbage side dish will have you slapping your mama! Please do yourself a favor and visit this restaurant. You won’t be disappointed!

Every time I am in town, I MUST stop at Temia Joys! I also have to make sure that I make room for an appetizer, entrée AND dessert! I can’t even make any recommendations because everything is so good and the hospitality is amazing!
