But there's no mention it's not until the last few paragraphs of her story that Cordle mentions a 1993 "EEOC lawsuit alleging that Joe’s failed to hire female servers" for the last few paragraphs of her story. But she leaves out details like a U.S. District Judge's 1997 ruling "that the South Beach restaurant 'intentionally discriminated' against women between 1986 and 1991. During that period, Joe's hired 108 men for its coveted server positions and no women." [Miami Herald, March 29, 2001]

There's also nothing on a 2000 appeals court ruling that "found evidence that 'Joe's management intentionally excluded women from food-serving positions in order to provide its customers with an 'Old World,' fine-dining ambience.'" [Miami Herald, March 29, 2001]
