Reviews
Great place to enjoy a drink and excellent music. The staff took excellent care of us. The space is tight and reservations are recommended. We will be back!
Arrived a little late to the reservation but got sat immediately by the kind hostess. Server got us water and gave time to peruse the menus. Short rib ravioli, herb salmon and drunken steak were phenomenal. Service was quick and courteous. Jazz rack, Henry Grant and Lush Life cocktails were tasty. The gelato on the apple tartlet was Milan-worthy. Shout out to the Mike Bowie Quartet!!
Went on a date night w/ my Fiancé and had a GREAT time. The lady greeting and taking us to our table was soo friendly that I Automatically fell in love w the place. Food is AMAZING, music was great, and the staff were all so kind and on top of our orders. 10/10 definitely recommend.
We absolutely loved this restaurant.
Pros
The food was delicious.
The band was incredible.
The customer service was great.
We made reservations and there was no wait upon arrival.
Did I mention the food was delicious lol?!
Cons
Be prepared to pay because it is costly for entrées and drinks.
My fiance ordered the ravioli which was over $30 and she only received about 5. It wasn't fulfilling at all.
They include gratuity automatically in check.
Overall we loved Jojo's and definitely will go back when we're in the city.
A fantastic place with wonderful food and vibes. We got a table close to the band. All of our dishes were delicious. We had the New Zealand mussels, Crispy calamari, the Lobster ravioli, Cajun pork chop & shrimp, and the New Zealand lamb chops. Reserve your table in advance. Definitely recommended!
I’ve been trying to find the perfect day time to eat at Jojos and it was worth the wait!
Let’s start with the pros:
It’s very intimate but with such a welcoming feel. I had the calamari for a starter and that’s probably some of the best calamari I’ve had, followed by the lamb for the main course and bread pudding for dessert. Everything was incredibly delicious.
For drinks, I had the ginger mule and another cocktail (already forgot the name)
Let’s not forget about the live music while I was finishing off dessert. *added favorite*
My only con is that our server had a bit of an attitude but my friends and I chose to ignore it because the food was incredible, service was fast and the other server helping her was super sweet.
Overall, such a rare gem in D.C.
4.5 stars but rounding up because the food!
Took my hubby there for his birthday, when we got there it was packed. We had reservations but still had to wait 25 minutes for the next available seating Honestly because the atmosphere was awesome and the hostess was attentive with a pleasant demeanor, it was worth the wait! The food and drinks are amazing... let's not talk about the music 💯 can't wait to go back!
My group of 5 had a semi-late dinner here one evening. There was a live band playing an interesting choice of music (instrumentals only). Everything pretty much sounded the same. However, the overall ambiance and environment was okay. The service was very slow…it took a really long time to get our entrees. I cringed when some of the guests ordered dessert because I knew that would make for an even longer night lol. I must say that my meal, Blackened Salmon w/Bacon Wrapped Shrimp, was a lot better than I expected. The portion was huge and I couldn’t finish it all. With that said, they definitely give you enough food to match the price. I didn’t order any cocktails, but the others in the group were impressed with theirs. Overall, the place is really small inside so you’ll definitely need to make reservations. Also, the entertainment rotates so I’m sure some nights are better than others.
